FCC Compliance Statement
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual,
may cause interference to radio communications. It has been tested and
found to comply with the limits of a Class A computing device pursuant
to Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to provide rea-
sonable protection against interference when operated in a commercial
environment. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely
to cause interference, in which case the user will be required at his or
her own expense to take whatever measures may be required to correct
the interference.
If the equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment on and off, one or
more of the following measures may reduce or eliminate the problem.
• Move the equipment and the receiver to different branches of your
AC electrical system.
• Move the equipment away from the receiver with which it is
interfering.
• Reposition the equipment or receiver. Reposition the receiver’s
antenna.
• Be sure that the equipment is plugged into a grounded outlet and
that the grounding has not been defeated with a cheater plug.
If none of the measures resolves your interference problems, write to
the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402, for the
booklet
Interference to Home Electronic Entertainment Equipment Handbook
,
Stock Number 004-000-000498-1.
