End usersmust follow the specific operating instructions for satisfyingRF exposure compliance.This device is intended only form OEM integrators underthe following conditions:1. The antenna must be installed such that 20cm is main-tained between the antenna and users;and2. The transmitter module may not be co-located with anyother transmitter or antenna.IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authoriza-tion is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID can notbe used on the final product. In these circumstances, theOEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating theend product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a sep-arate FCC authorization.13.1.2 End Product LabelingThis transmitter module is authorized only for use indevices where the antenna may be installed such that 20cm may be maintained between the antenna and users.The final end product must be labeled in visible area withthe following:“Contains TX FCC ID: ED9LMX9838”13.1.3 End Product Manual InformationThe user manual for end users must include the followinginformation in a prominent location:“IMPORTANT NOTE:To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance require-ments, the antenna used for this transmitter must beinstalled to provide a separation distance of at least 20cmfrom all persons and must not be co-located or operating inconjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.”13.2 RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENT13.2.1 INFORMATION TO THE USERNOTE : This equipment has been tested and found to com-ply with the limits for a Class B digital device pursuant toPart 15 of the FCC Rules.These limits are designed to provide reasonable protectionagainst harmful Interference in a residential installationThis equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio fre-quency energy and, if Not installed and used in accordancewith the instructions, may cause harmful Interference toradio communications. However, there is no guarantee thatinterference will not occur in a particular Installation. If thisequipment does cause harmful interference to radio or tele-vision reception, which can be determined by turning theequipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to cor-rect the interference by one or more of the following mea-sures:■Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.■Increase the separation between the equipment and re-ceiver.■Connect the equipment into an outlet of a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.■Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV techni-cian for assistance.Changes or modification not expressly approved by theparty responsible for Compliance could void the user’sauthority to operate the equipment. Connecting of periph-erals requires the use of grounded shielded signal cables.13.2.2 FCC Compliance InformationThis device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules.Operation is subject to the following two conditions:1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and2) This device must accept any interference received,including interference that may cause undesired operation.
