Warnings

FCC warning

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when operated in a commercial en­vironment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential
area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be required to take whatever measures necessary to cor­rect the interference at his own expense.

APOGEE ELECTRONICS CORPORATION warrants this product to be free of defects in material and manufacture under
normal use for a period of 12 months. The term of this warranty begins on the date of sale to the purchaser. Units returned for
warranty repair to Apogee or an authorized Apogee warranty repair facility will be repaired or replaced at the manufacturer’s
option, free of charge.

ALL UNITS RETURNED TO APOGEE OR AN AUTHORIZED APOGEE REPAIR FACILITY MUST BE PREPAID, INSURED
AND PROPERLY PACKAGED, PREFERABLY IN THEIR ORIGINAL BOX. Apogee reserves the right to change or improve

design at any time without prior notication. Design changes are not implemented retroactively, and the incorporation of design
changes into future units does not imply the availability of an upgrade to existing units.

APOGEE ELECTRONICS

This warranty is void if Apogee determines, in its sole business judgment, the defect to be the result of abuse, neglect,
alteration or attempted repair by unauthorized personnel.

The warranties set forth above are in lieu of all other warranties, expressed or implied, and Apogee specically disclaims any
and all implied warranty of merchantability or of tness for a particular purpose. The buyer acknowledges and agrees that in
no event shall the company be held liable for any special, indirect, incidental or consequential damages, or for injury, loss or
damage sustained by any person or property, that may result from this product failing to operate correctly at any time.

USA: Some states do not allow for the exclusion or limitation of implied warranties or liability for incidental or consequential
damage, so the above exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specic legal rights, and you may have other
rights which vary from state to state.

Service Information

The Mini-MP contains no user-serviceable components: refer to qualied service personnel for repair or upgrade. Your
warranty will be voided if you tamper with the internal components. If you have any questions with regard to the above, please
contact Apogee.

In the event your Mini-MP needs to be upgraded or repaired, it is necessary to contact Apogee prior to shipping, and a Return
Materials Authorization (RMA) number will be assigned. This number will serve as a reference for you and helps facilitate
and expedite the return process. Apogee requires that shipments be pre-paid and insured — unless otherwise authorized in
advance.

IMPORTANT: ANY SHIPMENT THAT IS NOT PRE-PAID OR IS SENT WITHOUT AN RMA NUMBER WILL NOT BE
ACCEPTED.
