CFR47, Parts 15b, FCC Rules and Regulations.
Radio Interference
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limit for a Class B Digital Device in accordance with the
specifications in Part 15 of FCC Rules. The rules are designed to provide reasonable protection against radio and
television 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 inst allation.
If this equipment does cause interference to radio or televisions reception (which you can determine by turning the
equipment off and on), try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures.
l Reposition or relocate the receiving antenna for the radio or television that is “receiving” the interference.
l Change the position of the Digital CATV Terminal with respect to the radio or television equipment that is receiving
interference.
l Move the Digital CATV Terminal away from equipment receiving interference.
l Plug the Digital CATV Terminal into a different wall outlet so the Digital CATV Terminal and equipment receiving the
interference are on different branch circuits.
If these measures do not eliminate interference, please consult your dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for assistance.
