electrical noise
If applicable, 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, this 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, you are encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more 
of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the antenna in the device receiving the interference.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment to an outlet on a different circuit than the one to 

which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This product complies with the Canadian RSS-310 Class B specification.
