Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the 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. FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications
to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user authority
to operate the equipment.

series and Internet Video Server only.
4.2. Safety Recommendations
The safety guidelines are as follows:
λ Keep the board area clear and dust-free before, during, and after installation.
λ Keep tools away from walk areas where you and others could fall over them.
λ Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry, such as earrings, bracelets, or chains, that could get
caught in the board.
λ Wear safety glasses if you are working under any conditions that might be hazardous to your
eyes.
λ Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes
the equipment unsafe.

4.3. Maintaining Safety with Electricity
Warning: Before working on a board or working near power supplies, unplug the power cord on AC units;
on DC units, disconnect the power at the circuit breaker.
Follow these guidelines when working on equipment powered by electricity:
λ Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist anywhere in your
work space.
λ Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit; always check the
circuit.
extension cables, frayed power cords, and missing safety grounds.
λ If an electrical accident occurs, proceed as follows:
– Use caution; do not become a victim yourself.
– Disconnect power from the system.
– If possible, send another person to get medical aid. Otherwise, assess the condition of the victim
and then call for help.
– Determine if the person needs rescue breathing or external cardiac compressions; then take
appropriate action.
