1.1 RADIO AND TV INTERFERENCE
The Model 1015 generates and uses radio frequency energy, and
if not installed and used properly—that is, in strict accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions—may cause interference to radio and tele-
vision reception. The Model 1015 has been tested and found to com-
ply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance with
the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are
designed to provide reasonable protection from such interference in a
commercial installation. However, there is no guarantee that interfer-
ence will not occur in a particular installation. If the Model 1015 does
cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be deter-
mined by turning the power off or disconnecting the modem, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the fol-
lowing measures: moving the computing equipment away from the
receiver, re-orienting the receiving antenna and/or plugging the receiv-
ing equipment into a different AC outlet (such that the computing
equipment and receiver are on different branches).
1.2 SERVICE
All warranty and non-warranty repairs must be returned freight
prepaid and insured to Patton Electronics. All returns must have a
