RF Emissions

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. 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 headset is connected.

• Consult your local RadioShack store or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your equipment. Changes or modiﬁcations not expressly approved by RadioShack may cause interference and void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

This device complies with 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 received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

High frequency: 107.1, 107.3, 107.7, 107.9 MHz

Performance Tips

• Connect your transmitter to your car and audio device before operating your vehicle.

• Bass boost modes may cause distorted sound.

• The FCC regulates and limits your transmitter’s strength.

• FM channels may experience environmental interference or be occupied by local radio stations. Try using a different frequency.

• Certain vehicles may experience more difﬁculty receiving clear signals because of the location of the vehicle’s antenna, metallic ﬁlm on the windows, or other external factors.

HIGH-LOW BAND frequency switch

Step 1

Connect the 12VDC plug into your car’s power port. Conect the other end to the 5V DC jack on the transmitter.

Step 3

Turn on your transmitter and audio device. Select one frequency on the transmitter and set the radio in the car to the same frequency. Use the volume controls on your radio or audio device to adjust the volume. For best performance, select a frequency that is not occupied by a strong local FM station.

Step 2

Insert the 3.5mm stereo plug into the 3.5mm headphone jack of any portable audio device. If your audio device (LG, Sanyo, Motorola mobile cell) comes with 2.5mm headphone jack, connect the 3.5mm plug to the supplied 1/8” to 3/32” adapter ﬁrst.

Battery Notes

• Dispose of batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury them.

• Use only fresh batteries of the required size and type.

• Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of different capacities.

• If you do not plan to use the wireless transmitter for a long period of time, remove the battery. Batteries can leak chemicals that can damage electronic parts.

Recycle Rechargeable Batteries

Placing rechargeable batteries in the trash can be harmful to the environment. Instead, recycle old rechargeable batteries at your local RadioShack store free of charge. RadioShack participates in the RBRC© battery recycling program, and is committed to preserving the environment and conserving natural resources. Call 1-800-THE-SHACK (1-800-843-7422) for more information.
