It is strictly forbidden to use antenna(s) except designated.
AThe antenna(s) of this device must not be co-located or operating in conjunc-
tion with any other antenna or transmitter.
BThisequipment complies with FCC RFradiation exposure limitssetforth for
an uncontrolled environment. End users must follow the specific operatinginstructions for satisfying RF exposure compliance.
Notes to users in the United States of America
Notice:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a ClassB digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designedto provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential in-stallation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency ener-gy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may causeharmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guaranteethat interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment doescause harmful interference to radio or television reception,which can be deter-mined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to cor-rect the interference by one 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 whichthe receiver is connected.
•Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This device complies with Part 15 and 18 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 ac-cept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesiredoperation.
Warning
Changesor modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible forcompliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
