Radio Frequency (RF) emission limits to provide an interference-free radio frequency spectrum.
Many electronic devices, including computers, generate RF energy incidental to their intended
function and are, therefore, covered by these rules. These rules place computers and related peripheral
devices into two classes, A and B, depending upon their intended installation. Class A devices are
those that may reasonably be expected to be installed in a business or commercial environment. Class
B devices are those that may reasonably be expected to be installed in a residential environment
(personal computers, for example). The FCC requires devices in both classes to bear a label indicating
the interference potential of the device as well as additional operating instructions for the user.
The rating label on the device shows which class (A or B) the equipment falls into. Class A devices do
not have an FCC logo or FCC ID on the label. Class B devices have an FCC logo or FCC ID on the
label. Once the class of the device is determined, refer to the following corresponding statement.

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 receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or television technician for help.
