BTR5857 Manual; ML_BTR5857_02 (Mar 2004) Approved: G.C. v INFORMATION TO USER 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, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for 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 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 connected • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help CAUTION: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by VCom Inc. could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. CAUTION: This device must be professionally installed. WARNING: In order to comply with the FCC radiofrequency exposure limits of 1.1310, this equipment must be installed in such a way as to provide a minimum separation distance of 1.5m from the transmitting antenna to persons nearby. The installer of this radio equipment must ensure that the antenna is located or pointed such that it does not emit RF fields in excess of Health Canada’s limits for the ge…
