cause harmful interference; and (2)This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
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

occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the

•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,
“HowTo Identify and Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems.”This booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing
