Important Usage Instructions
FCC/IC NOTICE
HD Camcorder, ID0046 / ID0048 systemsThis 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 receive\
d, 
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits\
 
for class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These \
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful 
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, us\
es 
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and use in \
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radi\
o 
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will 
not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause har\
mful 
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined b\
y 
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to corre\
ct 
the interference by one or more of the following measures:
 Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
 Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
 Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to\
 
which the receiver is connected.
 Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Use of shielded cable is required to comply with class B limits in Subpa\
rt 
B of Part 15 of FCC Rules.Do not make any changes or modifications to 
the equipment unless otherwise specified in the manual. If such changes \
or modifications should be made, you could be required to stop operation\
 
of the equipment.
Model ID0046 (including WLAN Module Model WM217, FCC 
ID: AZD217)
This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s\
). 
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device \
may 
not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interferen\
ce, 
including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.\
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with \
any other antenna or transmitter.
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems\
 
are associated with using low-power wireless devices. There is no proof,\
 
however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low-\
power wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) \
in the 
microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce 
health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low-level RF that does\
 not 
produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many 
studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects.\
 
Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, bu\
t 
such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. This model\
 
has been tested and found to comply with FCC/IC radiation exposure limit\
s 
set forth for an uncontrolled equipment and meets the FCC radio frequenc\
y 
(RF) Exposure Guidelines and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) 
Exposure rules.
