One or more of the following statements may be applicable:

FCC WARNING

This equipment generates or uses radio frequency energy. Changes or modiﬁ cations to this equipment may cause harmful interference unless the modiﬁ cations are expressly approved by the party responsible/JVC KENWOOD. The user could lose the authority to operate this equipment if an unauthorized change or modiﬁ cation is made.

INFORMATION TO THE DIGITAL DEVICE USER REQUIRED BY THE FCC

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 generate 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 the 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 to an outlet on a circuit different from that to

•

which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer for technical assistance.

•

Do not install the repeater in explosive atmospheres

◆

(inﬂ ammable gas, dust particles, metallic powders, grain powders, etc.).

This repeater is intended for use as a ﬁ xed base station with

◆

the antenna located outdoors on the rooftop or on an antenna tower.

This repeater is designed for a 13.6 V DC power source.

◆

Never use a 24 V DC or higher source to power the repeater.

Use only the supplied DC cord.

◆

Do not remove the ferrite core attached to the DC cord. Doing

◆

so may cause interference with radio communications.

Do not put anything on top of the repeater. This will obstruct

◆

heat dissipation.
