DIGITALTELEVISIONTRANSITION NOTICE
This device contains a digital television tuner,so it should receive digital over the airTV programming,
with a suitable antenna,after the end of full-power analogTV broadcasting in the United States on June
12,2009.Some older television receivers,if they rely on aTV antenna,will need aTV Converter to
receive over the air digital programming,but should continue to work as before for other purposes (e.g.,
for watching low-powerTV stations still broadcasting in analog,watching pre-recorded movies,or playing
video games).
For more information,
call the FCC at 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-225-5322)
or see www.DTV.gov.
For information on theTV Converter program,and on government coupons that may be used toward
the purchase of one,see www.dtv2009.gov,
or call the NTIA at 1-888-DTV-2009.
AVISO RELATIVOA LATRANSICIÓNATELEVISIÓN DIGITAL
Este equipo incorpora un sintonizador de televisión digital,lo que le permitirá recibir una programación
digital televisada por aire,con una antena adecuada,cuando se terminará la transmisión de alta potencia
de la televisión analógica en los Estados Unidos el 12 de junio de 2009.Ciertos receptores de televisión
antiguos,si dependen de una antena deTV,necesitarán un conversor deTV para recibir por el aire una
programación digital,pero seguirán funcionando como antes para otros usos (por ejemplo para ver
emisoras deTV de baja potencia que todavía transmiten en analógico,para ver películas pregrabadas,o
para utilizar sus videojuegos).
Para obtener más información,
llame FCC 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-225-5322)
