1.1 RADIO AND TV INTERFERENCE (FCC PART 15)

This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy, and if not
installed and used properly—that is, in strict accordance with the manu­facturer's instructions—may cause interference to radio and television
reception. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class A computing device in accordance with the specifica­tions in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to provide
reasonable protection from such interference in a commercial installa­tion. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If the equipment causes interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by disconnecting the
cables, try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures: moving the computing equipment away from the receiver, re­orienting the receiving antenna, and/or plugging the receiving equipment
into a different AC outlet (such that the computing equipment and
receiver are on different branches).
