EMC:
• FCC Part 15, Class A
• EN55022, Class A
• EN55024
A.2 Radio and TV Interference (FCC Part 15)
This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used properly—that is, in
strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions—may cause interference to radio and television recep-
tion. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accor-
dance with the specifications in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to provide reasonable
protection from such interference in a commercial installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by disconnecting the cables, try to correct the interference by one or more of the fol-
lowing measures: moving the computing equipment away from the receiver, re-orienting the receiving antenna,
and/or plugging the receiving equipment into a different AC outlet (such that the computing equipment and
receiver are on different branches).

be aware that compliance with the above condition may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to some certified equipment should be made by an authorized maintenance facility designated by the
supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give
the telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment. Users should ensure for
their own protection that the ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water
pipe system, are connected together. This protection may be particularly important in rural areas.
