Operation is subject to the condition that this device does not cause harmful interference. This equipment complies with the limits for a Class B digital device as specified in Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits provide reasonable protection against radio and TV interference in a residential area. However, your equipment might cause TV or radio interference even when it is operating properly. To eliminate interference you can try one or more of the following corrective measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the distance between the equipment and the radio or TV. • Use outlets on different electrical circuits for the equipment and the radio or TV.
