Safety instructions/information

Note

Following corresponding tests, it has been ascertained that this unit adheres to the limit values for class B digital 

units in accordance with part 15 of the FCC regulations. These limit values are intended to provide private user's 

systems with appropriate protection against harmful radio interference. This unit generates and uses energy 

in the radio frequency range and is also able to radiate this; if it is not installed and used in accordance with the 

regulations, the unit may cause harmful radio communication interference. However, there is no guarantee that 

interference will not occur in a specific system. If this unit causes harmful radio or television reception interference, 

which can be ascertained by switching the unit on and off, we recommend that the user attempts to rectify this  

interference via one or more of the following measures:

Realign the receive antenna or change its position.

Increase the distance between the unit and the receiver.

Plug the unit into a socket in a current circuit other than that to which the receiver is connected.

Seek advice from the retailer or an experienced radio/television technician.

Warning regarding exposure to RF radiation

Note

To meet part 15 of the FCC regulations in the United States, the system must be properly installed to guarantee

out  installation  are  responsible  for  ensuring  that  only  certified  systems  are  used  in  the  United  States.  Use  of  this 

system in any other combination (e.g. several antennas which transmit the same information in the same location)  

is expressly prohibited.

Note regarding proper installation:

Important!
