§ 15.706   Information to the user.

   (a)  In addition to the labeling requirements contained in § 15.19, the
   instructions furnished to the user of a TVBD shall include the following
   statement, placed in a prominent location in the text of the manual:

   This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the rules for TV
   bands  devices,  pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These rules are
   designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference. This
   equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
   installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
   interference to radio communications. If this equipment does cause harmful
   interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
   turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
   the interference by one or more of the following measures:

   (1) Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

   (2) Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

   (3) Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
   which the receiver is connected.

   (4) Consult the manufacturer, dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician
   for help.

   (b) In cases where the manual is provided only in a form other than paper,
   such as on a computer disk or over the Internet, the information required by
   this  section  may be included in the manual in that alternative form,
   provided the user can reasonably be expected to have the capability to
   access information in that form.
