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 WMC6300 and radio or television receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
• Consult the supplier of the WMC6300 or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
