motion detectors, such as those requiring licenses used on manufacturing lines or similar radio transmitters. It is also used in specified amateur radio stations or small radio stations not
requiring licenses (All these wireless devices will be called “other wireless transmitters” below).

1. Before using this system, confirm that other wireless transmitters are not in use nearby.

2. In the unlikely event that there is electronic interference between this system and other wireless transmitters, quickly change the operating frequency of this system, change the location
of operation, or stop operating the unit (cease transmission of a signal).
