Warnings

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 and
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• Increase the distance between the equipment and the receiver
• Connect the equipment to an AC outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help

In some situations or environments, the use of wireless devices may be restricted by the proprietor of the building or
responsible representatives of the organization. These situations may, for example, include the use of wireless
equipment on board airplanes, or in any other environment where the risk of interference to other devices or services is
perceived or identified as harmful.

If you are uncertain of the policy that applies on the use of wireless equipment in a specific organization or environment
(e.g. airports), you are encouraged to ask for authorization to use this device prior to turning on the equipment.

Modifications

The FCC requires the user to be notified that any changes or modifications to this device that are not expressly approved
by the manufacturer may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. The correction of interference caused by
