the

manufacturer

's

instructions

,

may

type

tested

and found

to

comply

with

the

limits

device in accordance

with

the

specifications

in

Subpart

J

of

Part 15

of

FCC

Rules, which are designed

to

provide reasonable protec-

tion

against

such interference

in

a residential installa-

tion

. However, there

is

no

guarantee

that

interference

will

not

occur

in

a

particular

installation.

If

this

equip-

ment

does cause interference

to

radio

or television

reception, which

can

be

determined

by

turning

the

equipment

off

and on, the user
