NOTE:

 This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits 

for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits 

are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference 

in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate 

radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with 

the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. 

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular 

installation. If this equipment does cause harmful 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 or relocate the receiving antenna.

   

•   Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.

   

•   Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that  

 

     to which the receiver is connected.

   

•   Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

WARNING

CAUTION

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle 

is intended to alert the user to the prescence of uninsulated “dangerous 

voltage” within the product’s enclosure, that may be of significant 

magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! DO NOT OPEN!

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT  

REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE.  

REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the 

user of the prescence of important operating and maintaining (servicing) 

instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

WARNING

 — To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock,  

do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.

17.

  This device complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an 

uncontrolled environment. This device should be installed and operated  

with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.

18.

  The maximum ambient temperature during use of the appliance must  

not exceed 45˚ C.

19.

  Operation frequency: 2402MHz – 2480MHz

20.

  RF POWER = <19dBm

21.

  This apparatus does not exceed the Class A/Class B (whichever is 

applicable)limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus as  

set out in the radio interference regulations of the Canadian Department  

of Communications.

ATTENTION 

— Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits 

radioélectriques dépassant las limites applicables aux appareils numériques 

de class A/de class B (selon le cas) prescrites dans le réglement sur le 

brouillage radioélectrique édicté par les ministere des communications  

du Canada.

  This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s).  

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

   (1) this device may not cause interference, and

   

(2) this device must accept any interference, including interference  

 

that may cause undesired operation of the device.

  Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables 

aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L’exploitation est autorisée aux  

deux conditions suivantes :

   (1) l’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et

   

(2) l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage    

 

radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible  

 

d’en compromettre le fonctionnement.

23.

  Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause permanent hearing loss. 

Individuals vary considerably in susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss, 

but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense 

noise for a period of time. The U.S. Government’s Occupational Safety and 

Health Administration (OSHA) has specified the permissible noise level 

exposures shown in the following chart.

  According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of these permissible limits 

could result in some hearing loss. To ensure against potentially dangerous 

exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all persons 

exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound pressure levels 

use hearing protectors while the equipment is in operation. Ear plugs or 

protectors in the ear canals or over the ears must be worn when operating 

the equipment in order to prevent permanent hearing loss if exposure is in 

excess of the limits set forth here:

Duration, per 

day in hours
