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 (that is, the antenna for radio or television  
that is “receiving” the interference).  
• Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the telecommunications  
equipment and receiving antenna.  
• Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from  
that to which the receiving antenna is connected.  
If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult your dealer or an  
experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. Also, the Federal  
Communications Commission has prepared a helpful booklet, “How To Identify and  
Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is available from the U.S.  
Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Please specify stock number 004-  
000-00345-4 when ordering copies.
