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:

● Re-orient 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.

Do not attempt to repair or modify this equipment.
