NOTICE

This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions, may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been type-tested and found to comply with
the limits for Class B computing devices in accordance with the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed
to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment on and off, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:

Reorient the receiving antenna of the radio or TV.

Relocate the Digital Audio Processor with respect to the radio or TV.

Move the Digital Audio Processor away from the radio or TV.

Plug the Digital Audio Processor into a different outlet so that the Digital Audio Processor and radio or TV are on different branch
circuits.

If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. The user may
find the following booklet prepared by the Federal Communications Commission helpful:
