comply with the limits of a Class A computing device pursuant to Subpart J
of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection
against interference when operated in a commercial environment. Operation
of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause interference, in which
case the user will be required at his or her own expense to take whatever

If the equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment on and off, one or more
of the following measures may reduce or eliminate the problem.
• Move the equipment and the receiver to different branches of your
AC electrical system.
• Move the equipment away from the receiver with which it is
interfering.
• Reposition the equipment or receiver. Reposition the receiver’s
antenna.
• Be sure that the equipment is plugged into a grounded outlet and that
the grounding has not been defeated with a cheater plug.
If none of the measures resolves your interference problems, write to
the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC, 20402, for the
Interference to Home Electronic Entertainment Equipment Handbook
