SPECIFICATIONS
This unit has been designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential install.
This equipment uses, generates and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. There is no
guarantee that interference will not occur
in any particular install.
If the equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and back on again,
the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by:
(1) reorient or relocate the receiving antenna;
(2) increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver;
(3) connect the equipment into an outlet
on a different circuit from the receiver;
(4) consult the dealer or an experienced
radio / TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications to this equipment
could void the warranty.
