The changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate

RF exposure statements
IMPORTANT NOTE:
To comply with the FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the
antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a
separation distance of at least 20cm (8 inches) from all persons and
must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter. No change to the antenna or the device is
permitted. Any change to the antenna or the device could result in
the device exceeding the RF exposure requirements and void user’s
authority to operate the device.
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 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.
VERY IMPORTANT PLEASE READ
Sangean suggest that you keep your AC Adapter at least 12 inches
away from the radio while listening to the AM Band.
Your Sangean Radio is powered by an AC adapter which is a “switching”
or “switch-mode” type. The DOE (Department Of Energy) has a Federal
mandate; requiring all manufactures to use this type of power supply.
This newer power saving technology has the unfortunate side effect of
causing interference to the AM radio band.
Therefore, we recommend that customers keep at least a 1 foot distance
between the AC adapter and the radio. This interference will not affect
the FM Band. If you have any questions please contact customer
service at (888)726-4326, (562)941-9900 or [email protected] If
an AC adapter isn’t included in this model and if you wish to purchase
an AC Adapter separately, please refer to the specifications for
the
AC Adapter stated on the final page of the manual, or please
contact Sangean for the correct AC Adapter and specifications. To
