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.
