FCC Information

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.
In accordance with FCC requirements, changes or
modifications not expressly approved by Thomson
Inc. could void the user’s authority to operate this
product.
This device generates and uses radio frequency
(RF) energy, and if not installed and used
properly, this equipment may cause interference
to radio and television reception.
If this equipment does cause interference to radio
or television reception (which you can determine
by turning the equipment off and on), try to
correct the
interference by one or more of the following
measures:
• Reorient the receiving antenna (that is,  the
antenna for the radio or television that is
"receiving" the interference).
• Move the unit away from the equipment that is
receiving interference.
• Plug the unit into a different wall outlet  so that
the unit and the equipment receiving
interference are on different branch circuits.
If these measures do not eliminate the
interference, please consult your dealer or an
experienced
radio/television technician for additional
suggestions.
Also, the Federal Communications Commission
has prepared a helpful booklet, "How To Identify
and Resolve Radio TV Interference Problems."
This booklet is available from the U.S.

20402. Please specify stock number

For Your Safety

The AC power plug is polarized
(one blade is wider than the
other) and only fits into AC
power outlets one way. If the
plug won’t go into the outlet
completely, turn the plug over and try to insert it
the other way. If it still won’t fit, contact a
qualified electrician to change the outlet, or use a
different one. 

Do not attempt to bypass this

safety feature.

CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK,
MATCH WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT,
FULLY INSERT.

Have a Blast-Just Not in your eardrums!
Make sure you turn down the
volume on the unit before you
put on headphones.  Increase
the volume to the desired
level only after headphone
are in place.
