Radio interference

A sample of this product has been tested and complies with the limits for the European Electro Magnetic
Compatibility (EMC) directive. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference from electrical equipment. This product uses radio frequency energy and if not used or
installed in accordance with these operating instructions, may cause interference to other equipment,
such as radio receivers. Compliance with the (EMC) directive does not automatically guarantee non-
disturbance of susceptible equipment in close proximity to this amplifier.
If this amplifier is suspected of causing interference this can be easily checked by powering the amplifier
on and off and observing the disturbance. The user can correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:

 

Re - orientate or relocate the receiver's antenna.

 

Increase the distance between the amplifier and the effected equipment.

 

Connect the mains cable to a socket on a different circuit from that to which the affected unit
is connected.

 

Check if the affected equipment complies with the EMC limits for immunity, (CE-labelled). If
not, address the problem with the manufacturer or supplier. All electrical products sold in the
EC must be approved for immunity against electromagnetic fields, high voltage flashes, and
radio interference.

 

Consult your dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
