FCC AND IC STATEMENTSFCC ID: TTY-PRLIFCC ID: TTY-BAIC: 5676B-PRLIIC: 5676B-BACAN ICES-3(B)/NMB-3 (B)Federal Communications Commission StatementThis device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the follow-ing two conditions:(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that maycause undesired operation.NOTE:This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digi-tal device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to providereasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. Thisequipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not instal-led and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference toradio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occurin a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radioor 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 follow-ing 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 thereceiver is connected.— Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.NOTE:This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrol-led environment. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunctionwith any other antenna or transmitter.Changes or modifications to the equipment not expressly approved by Widex couldvoid the user’s authority to operate the equipment.Industry Canada Statement / Déclaration d’industrie CanadaUnder Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using anantenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by In-dustry Canada.155
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gainshould be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is notmore than that necessary for successful communication.This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Opera-tion 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 causeundesired operation of the device.Conformément à la réglementation d’Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peutfonctionner avec une antenne d’un type et d’un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvépour l’émetteur par Industrie Canada.Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l’intention des autresutilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d’antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance iso-trope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l’intensité nécessaire à l’éta-blissement d’une communication satisfaisante.Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables aux appa-reils radio exempts de licence. L’exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions sui-vantes :(1) l’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et(2) l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, mêmesi le brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le fonctionnement.156
