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 re-

ceiver.

– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different

from that to which the receiver is connected.
