USER MANUAL STATEMENTS FOR CLASS A EQUIPMENT (continued)
USER MANUAL STATEMENTS FOR CLASS B EQUIPMENT (TABLETOP VERSION)
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. Any modifications to this device - unless expressly approved by
the manufacturer - can void the user’s authority to operate this equipment under part 15 of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference
and (2) this device must accept any interference that may cause undesirable operation.
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/TV technician for help.
Note: Additional information on the need to interconnect the device with shielded (data) cables or the
need for special devices, such as ferrite beads on cables, is required if such means of interference
suppression was used in the qualification test for the device. This information will vary from device to
device and needs to be obtained from the EMC group or product manager.
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
