ply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pur-

suant 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 fre-
quency 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. [f this equipment

does cause harmful interference to radio or televi-
sion 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 con-

nected.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.

Any changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance

could void the user's authority to operate the
equipment.

*If your product has the bolts in the eye-bolts position before inserting the eye-bolts, loosen the bolts.

Secure the wall brackets with the bolts (not provided as parts of the product, must purchase separately) on
the wall. Match the height of the bracket that is mounted on the wall to the holes in the product.

Ensure the eye-bolts or brackets are tightened securely.

I Use a sturdy rope (not provided as parts of the product, must pur-

chase separately) to tie the product. It is safer to tie the rope so it
