The frequency version of your system is preset. When
two sets at same operating frequency work close to each
other, they have mutual interference. In order to minimize
interference, three different operating frequencies are
provided. When using wireless microphones simultaneously,
make sure your system’s frequency versions are different.
Check the frequency label on the bottom of the receiver
and inside the microphone’s battery compartment.

FCC Information
WARNING:
Modifying, tampering with, or adjusting this unit, or replacing any
transmitter component (crystal, semiconductor, etc.) may result in a violation of the
FCC rules.
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 equip-
ment 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 receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
• Consult your local
RadioShack
store or an experienced radio/TV technician for
help.
If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using
your microphone system. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by
RadioShack
may cause interference and void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
Shielded cables must be used with this unit to ensure compliance with the Class B
FCC limits.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
condition that this device may not cause harmful interference.
This wireless microphone system complies with Part 90 of the FCC Rules. There
are three frequencies available for the system. You must obtain a license for each
frequency you plan to use before operating your system. One license can include
both frequencies. Visit http://wireless.fcc.gov/uls/, or call your local FCC office to
apply for your license. Your ability to obtain a license will depend on how you plan
to use the system.
For RF exposure
IMPORTANT NOTE:
To comply with the FCC RF exposure compliance require-
To comply with the FCC RF exposure compliance require-
ments, no change to the antenna or the device is permitted. Any change to the
antenna or the device could result in the system exceeding the RF exposure
requirements.
For devices less than 200mW ERP
SAFETY INFORMATION
Your wireless microphone contains a low power transmitter. When the EUT is
powered on, it sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. In August 1996, the Federal
Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety
levels for wireless devices.
IMPORTANT
To maintain compliance with the FCC’s RF exposure guidelines, hold the transmitter
and antenna at least 1 inch (2.5 centimetres) from your face and speak in a normal
voice, with the antenna pointed up and away from the face. Ensure that the antenna
is at least 1 inch (2.5 centimetres) from your body when you are using your wireless
microphone.
Use only the supplied antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attach-
ments could damage the transmitter and may violate FCC regulations.
