NOTE
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 receiver is
connected.

technician for help.
Compliance with FCC requirement 15.407(c)
Data transmission is always initiated by software,
which is the passed down through the MAC, through
the digital and analog baseband, and finally to the RF
chip. Several special packets are initiated by the MAC.
These are the only ways the digital baseband portion
will turn on the RF transmitter, which it then turns off
at the end of the packet. Therefore, the transmitter
will be on only while one of the aforementioned
packets is being transmitted. In other words, this
device automatically discontinue transmission in case
of either absence of information to transmit or
operational failure.
Frequency Tolerance: 20ppm
5.15 – 5.25GHz band is restricted to indoor operations
only.

Precautions
On placement
Place the player in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the
player.
Do not place the player on a soft surface such as
a rug that might block the ventilation holes.
Do not place the player in a location near heat
sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust, or mechanical shock.
Do not place the player outdoors, in vehicles, on
ships, or on other vessels.
If the player is brought directly from a cold to a
warm location, or is placed in a very damp room,
moisture may form on the outer surface and on
interior of the player.
Should this occur, the player may not operate
properly. In this case, leave the player turned on
for about half an hour until the moisture
evaporates.
Do not install the player in an inclined position. It
is designed to be operated in a horizontal
position only.
Do not place heavy or unstable objects on the
player.
Disconnect the AC power cord and all other
cables from the player when you move the
player.
Keep the player away from equipment with
strong magnets, such as microwave ovens, or
large loudspeakers.
Do not place metal objects in front or on the
both sides of the player. It may limit reception of
radio waves.
Do not place the player in a place where medical
equipment is in use. It may cause a malfunction
of medical instruments.
If you use a pacemaker or other medical device,
consult your physician or the manufacturer of
your medical device before using the wireless
LAN function.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Caution: This player is capable of holding a
still video image or on-screen display image
on your television screen indefinitely. If you
leave the still video image or on-screen
display image displayed on your TV for an

Additional Information
About wireless LAN security
Since communication via the wireless LAN
function is established by radio waves, the
wireless signal may be susceptible to interception.
To protect wireless communication, this player
supports various security functions. Be sure to
correctly configure the security settings in
accordance with your network environment.
No Security
Although you can easily make settings, anyone
can intercept wireless communication or intrude
into your wireless network, even without any
sophisticated tools. Keep in mind that there is a
risk of unauthorized access or interception of data.
WEP
WEP applies security to communications to
prevent outsiders from intercepting
communications or intruding into your wireless
network. WEP is a legacy security technology that
enables older devices, which do not support TKIP/
AES, to be connected.
WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK (TKIP)
TKIP is a security technology developed to correct
for the deficiencies of WEP. TKIP assures a higher
security level than WEP.
WPA-PSK (AES), WPA2-PSK (AES)
AES is a security technology that uses an
advanced security method that is distinct from
WEP and TKIP. AES assures a higher security level
than WEP or TKIP.
