WG-C20 series 4-479-250-11(1) 4-479-250-11(1) Portable Wireless Server Important information Information importante WG-C20 Series ยฉ 2013 Sony Corporation Printed in China WARNING Do not expose the batteries to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like. UL is an internationally recognized safety organization. The UL Mark on the product means it has been UL Listed. For question regarding your product or for the Sony Service Center nearest you, call 1-888-593-SONY (7669) in the United States or 1-877-899-7669 in Canada. The number below is for the FCC related matters only. For Customers in the U.S.A. Regulatory Information Declaration of Conformity Trade Name : SONY Model No. : WG-C20 Responsible Party : Sony Electronics Inc. Address : 16530 Via Esprillo, San Diego, CA 92127 U.S.A. Telephone No. : 858-942-2230 This device complies with Part15 of the FCC 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. CAUTION You are cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved in this manual could void your authority to operate this equipment. NOTE 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: ๎ˆ•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. ๎ˆ•Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. ๎ˆ•Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. ๎ˆ•Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. For Customers in the U.S.A. and Canada RECYCLING LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES Lithium-Ion batteries are recyclable. You can help preserve our environment by returning your used rechargeable batteries to the collection and recycling location nearest you. For more information regarding recycling of rechargeable batteries, call toll free 1-800-822-8837, or visit http://www. rbrc.org/ Caution: Do not handle damaged or leaking Lithium-Ion Batteries. This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment 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. The maximum SAR level tested for WG-C20 has been shown to be 0.33 W/kg at 1 cm separation from Body. For Customers in Canada This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
