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, includ-
ing interference that may cause undesired operation.
In accordance with FCC requirements, changes or modifi-
cations not expressly approved by Thomson multimedia
Inc. could void the user’s authority to operate this prod-
uct.
This device generates and uses radio frequency (RF)
energy, and if not installed and used properly, this equip-
ment may cause interference to radio and television
reception.
If this equipment does cause interference to radio or tel-
evision reception (which you can determine by unplug-
ging the unit), try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
• Re-orient the receiving antenna (that is, the antenna
for the radio or television that is "receiving" the interfer-
ence).
• 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/tele-
vision 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. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC
20402. Please specify stock number 004-000-00345-4
when ordering copies.

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, con-
tact a qualified electrician to change the outlet, or use a
different one. Do not attempt to bypass this safety fea-
ture.
CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH
WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT, FULLY INSERT.
