Regulatory Information
Declaration of Conformity
Trade Name : SONY
Model No. : WG-C10
Responsible Party : Sony Electronics Inc.
Address : 16530 Via Esprillo, San Diego, CA 92127
U.S.A.
Telephone No. : 858-942-2230
This device complies with Part15 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.
CAUTION
You are cautioned that any changes or
modifications not expressly approved in this
manual could void your authority to operate this
equipment.
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.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
The supplied interface cable must be used with the
equipment in order to comply with the limits for a
digital device pursuant to Subpart B of Part 15 of
FCC Rules.
RECYCLING LITHIUM-ION
BATTERIES
Lithium-Ion batteries are recyclable.
You can help preserve our
environment by returning your
used rechargeable batteries to the
collection and recycling location
nearest you.
For more information regarding
recycling of rechargeable batteries,
call toll free 1-800-822-8837, or visit
http://www.rbrc.org/
Caution: Do not handle damaged or
leaking Lithium-Ion Batteries.
This transmitter must not be co-located or
operated in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
The available scientific evidence does not show
that any health problems are associated with using
low power wireless devices. There is no proof,
however, that these low power wireless devices are
absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices emit
low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the
microwave range while being used. Whereas high
levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating
tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not
produce heating effects causes no known
adverse health effects. Many studies of lowlevel RF exposures have not found any biological
effects. Some studies have suggested that some
biological effects might occur, but such findings
have not been confirmed by additional research.
WG-C10 has been tested and found to comply
with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio
frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement
C to OET65.
