Note:

apply to a specific product, component, or accessory,

Federal Communications Commission
notice (USA)
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) is any electromagnetic
disturbance that interrupts, obstructs, or otherwise
degrades or limits the effective performance of electronics
or electrical equipment. These emissions can potentially
disrupt, degrade, or otherwise interfere with authorized
electronic emissions, which may include television, AM/FM
broadcasts, cellular services, radar, air-traffic control, and
pagers.
The FCC Rules and Regulations have established Radio
Frequency (RF) emission limits to provide an interference-
free RF spectrum. Many electronic devices, including
computers, generate RF energy incidental to their intended
function and are, therefore, covered by these rules.

instruction manual, may cause interference with radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that
