• This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and RSSGen of IC Rules.
• Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and 2) this device
must accept any interference received including interference that may cause undesired operation of this device.
See the “TROUBLESHOOTING” section at the end of this manual if interference to radio reception is suspected.
NOTICE
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, there 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, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This equipment compiles with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for uncontrolled equipment and meets the FCC
radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65 and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF)
Exposure rules. This equipment has very low levels of RF energy that it deemed to comply without maximum permissive
exposure evaluation (MPE). But it is desirable that it should be installed and operated with at least 20 cm and more between
the radiator and person’s body (excluding extremities: hands, wrists, feet and ankles).
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

instructions, peut provoquer des interférences radio. Il n’est toutefois pas garanti qu’aucune interférence ne se produira dans
le cas d’une installation donnée. Si l’appareil provoque des interférences nuisibles à la réception de programmes radio ou de
télévision, ce qui peut être déterminé en éteignant, puis en allumant l’appareil, l’utilisateur est prié de tenter de corriger le
problème en prenant l’une ou plusieurs des mesures suivantes :
– Réorienter ou déplacer l’antenne réceptrice.
– Éloigner davantage l’appareil du récepteur.
– Raccorder l’appareil à une prise d’un circuit différent de celui du récepteur.
– Consulter le revendeur ou un technicien radio/télé expérimenté.
Cet appareil est conforme aux limites FCC/IC d’exposition aux rayonnements définies pour les appareils non commandés et satisfait
aux directives d’exposition aux fréquences radio (RF) FCC de l’Annexe C des règlements OET65 et RSS-102 d’exposition aux
fréquences radio (RF) IC. Cet appareil possède des niveaux d’énergie RF très bas, considérés conformes aux taux d’exposition
maximum autorisés (MPE) non contrôlés. Mais il est toutefois préférable d’installer et d’utiliser l’appareil en conservant une
distance minimum de 20 cm entre l’émetteur et toute personne (sauf les extrémités : mains, poignets, pieds et chevilles).
Ce émetteur ne peut pas être placé à proximité de ou utilisé conjointement avec tout autre émetteur ou antenne.
