FCC NOTICE TO USERS

The system may cause interference to a TV or radio even when it

is operating properly. To determine whether the system is causing

the interference, turn it off. If the interference goes away, the

system is causing the interference. 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 needed.

• Contact your dealer for help.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is

subject to the following two conditions:

1. This device may not cause harmful interference.

2. This device must accept any interference received, including

interference that may cause undesired operation.

WARNING: changes or modifications to this unit not
expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment

IMPORTANT!

Clear voice reception is important, but does not guarantee that
an emergency alert will trigger your unit’s alert siren. To test
actual reception and alert response, your unit must receive a test
or emergency alert signal broadcast. The National Weather
Service (NWS) broadcasts a test alert every week typically on
Wednesday between 11AM and 12PM (noon). The radio will
warn you if it has not received an alert within 10 days.To find out
the specific test schedule in your area, contact your local
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) or
National Weather Service (NWS) office. These offices are
usually listed in the telephone book under “US Government”.or
visit the NOAA website athttp://www.nws.noaa.gov/nwr/

REMEMBER – FOR YOUR SYSTEM TO BE EFFECTIVE, YOU
MUST PLACE IT WHERE IT CAN RECEIVE AN EMERGENCY
ALERT SIGNAL AND WHERE YOU CAN HEAR ITS ALERT
SIREN OR SEE ITS FLASHING LIGHTS.
