NOTE:
This device complies with part 15 of the FC C Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) This device may not caus e harmful interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference received, incl uding interference that may cause undesired
operation.
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS st andard(s). Operation
is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause
undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux
appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions
suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil
doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible
d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
FCC WARNING:
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compli-
ance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
CAUTION:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines. This equip-
ment should be installed and operated keepin g the radiator at least 20cm or more away
from person’s body.
This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment and meets RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. This

Co-Location:
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an
antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry
Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its
gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not
more than that necessary for successful communication.
Conformément à la réglementation d’Indust rie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut
fonctionner avec une antenne d’un type et d’un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé
pour l’émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage
radioélectrique à l’intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choi sir le type d’antenne et son
gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas
l’intensité nécessaire à l’établisseme nt d’une communicati on satisfaisante.
