-
lowing	measures:	
•	Reorient	or	relocate	the	receiving	antenna.	
•	Increase	the	separation	between	the	device	and	receiver.	
•	Connect	 the	device	 into	an	outlet	 on	a	circuit	 different	 from	that	to	
	
which	the	receiver	is	connected.	
•	Consult	the	dealer	or	an	experienced	radio/television	technician	for	
	
help.
Notice: Shielded cables 
All 	connections 	to 	other 	computing 	devices 	must 	be 	made 	using 	shielded	
cables	to	maintain	compliance	with	FCC	regulations.
