FCC Notice

This controller generates radio frequency energy and may cause interference to radio
and television reception. It has been type tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B computing device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart J of
Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against
such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one
or more of the following measures:

Reorient the receiving antenna.

Move the controller away from the receiver.

Plug the controller into a different outlet so that controller and receiver are
on different branch circuits.

If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television
technician for additional suggestions. The user may find the following booklet
prepared by the Federal Communications Commission helpful: “How to Identify and
Resolve Radio-TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is available from the U.S.
Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C., Stock No. 004-000-00345-4.
