    HAZARD,  DO  NOT  EXPOSE  THIS  UNIT  TO 
    WATER OR MOISTURE
    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  reason-
    able  protection  against  harmful  interference 
    in  a  residential  installation.  This  equipment 
    generates,  uses,  and  can  radiate  radio  fre-
    quency  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  interfer-
    ence  will  not  occur  in  a  particular  installation. 
    If  this  equipment  does  cause  harmful  interfer-
    ence 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 equip-
    ment and receiver.
    – Connect the unit into an electrical outlet on
    a circuit different from that to which the 
    receiver is connected.
    – Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/
    TV technician for help.
    CAUTION:  TO  PREVENT  ELECTRIC  SHOCK 
    DO NOT USE THIS (POLARIZED) PLUG WITH 
    AN  EXTENSION  CORD,  RECEPTACLE,  OR 
    OTHER  OUTLET  UNLESS  THE  BLADES  CAN 
    BE  CAREFULLY  INSERTED  TO  PREVENT 
    BLADE EXPOSURE
