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 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. 
 
CAUTION: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer 
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the 
equipment.
