by the Federal Communications
Commission as described in Part 74 subpart
H of the FCC regulations and users

authorized thereby are required to obtain an
appropriate license.

You are cautioned that any changes or
modifications not expressly approved in
this manual could void your authority to
operate this equipment.

IMPORTANT NOTE: To comply with
the FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements, no change to the antenna or
the device is permitted.
Any change to the antenna or the device
could result in the device exceeding the RF
exposure requirements and void user’s
authority to operate this device.

This device complies with FCC radiation
exposure limits set forth for uncontrolled
equipment and meets the FCC radio
frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in
Supplement C to OET65. This device has
very low levels of RF energy that it is
deemed to comply without testing of
specific absorption ratio (SAR).

Notice for customers in Canada:

Use of Sony wireless devices is regulated
by the Industry Canada as described in their
Radio Standard Specification RSS-123.
A licence is normally required. The local
district office of Industry Canada should
therefore be contacted. When the operation
of the device is within the broadcast band,
the licence is issued on no-interference,
noprotection basis with respect to broadcast
signals.

Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference, including interference that
may cause undesired operation of the
device.

The term “IC” before the radio certification
number only signifies that Industry Canada
technical specifications were met.

Remarque à l’intention des
utilisateurs au Canada:

L’usage des appareils sans fil Sony est
réglementé par l’Industrie Canada comme
décrit dans leur Cahier des Normes
Radioélectriques CNR-123.
Une licence est normalement requise.
Le bureau de l’Industrie Canada doit être
contacté. Lorsque le fonctionnement de
l’appareil respecte les limites de la bande de
radiodiffusion, la licence est accordée sur la
base d’une non-interférence, non­protection pour les signaux de
radiodiffusion.

L’utilisation doit répondre aux deux
conditions suivantes : (1) ce matériel ne doit
pas provoquer de brouillage et (2) il doit
accepter tout brouillage, même celui qui est
susceptible d’affecter son fonctionnement.

La mention « IC: » devant le numéro de
certification/ homologation signifie
uniquement que les spécifications
techniques d’Industrie Canada sont
remplies.

Für Kunden in Deutshland (UTX­B2/H2/P1)

Entsorgungshinweis: Bitte werfen Sie nur
entladene Batterien in die Sammelboxen
beim Handel oder den Kommunen.
Entladen sind Batterien in der Regel dann,
wenn das Gerät abschaltet und signalisiert
“Batterie leer” oder nach längerer
Gebrauchsdauer der Batterien “nicht mehr
einwandfrei funktioniert”. Um
sicherzugehen, kleben Sie die Batteriepole
z.B. mit einem Klebestreifen ab oder geben
Sie die Batterien einzeln in einen
Plastikbeutel.

Important Notes
on Use

On usage and storage

• The UWP series components must be
used within a temperature range of 0°C to
40°C (32°F to 104°F).

• Operating the UWP series components
near electrical equipment (motors,
transformers, or dimmers) may cause it to
be affected by electromagnetic induction.
Keep the UWP series components as far
from such equipment as possible.

• The presence of the lighting equipment
may produce electrical interference over
the entire frequency range. Position the
UWP series components so that
interference is minimized.

• To avoid degradation of the signal to­noise ratio, do not use the UWP series
components in noisy places or in
locations subject to vibration, such as the
following:

- near electrical equipment, such as
motors, transformers or dimmers

- near air conditioning equipment or
places subject to direct air flow from
an air conditioner

- near public address loudspeakers

- where adjacent equipment might
knock against the tuner

Keep the UWP series components as far
from such equipment as possible or use
buffering material.

or any other chemicals, since these may mar
the finish.

To prevent electromagnetic
interference from portable
communication devices

The use of portable telephones and
other communication devices near
the UWP series components may
result in malfunction and interference
with audio signals. It is recommended
that portable communication devices
near the UWP series components be
turned off.

On cleaning

Clean the surface and the connectors of the
UWP series components with a dry, soft
cloth. Never use thinner, benzene, alcohol
