Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or TV technician for help. Complies with the Class B limits for radio noise emissions as set out in the interference-causing equipment standard entitled Digital Apparatus, ICES-003 of Industry Canada. Cet apareil numerique de la classe B respecte toutes les exigencies du Reglement sur le materiel brouilleur du Canada. Changes or modifications that are not explicitly approved by the party responsible for compliance with the FCC Rules could void the users authority to operate this equipment. Canada Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication. This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
This device may not cause interference This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
