Note  :  This  equipment  has  been  tested  and  found  to  comply  with  the  limits  for  a  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,  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.
However,  there  is  no  guarantee  that  interference  will  not  occur  in  a  particular  installation.  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:

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.

The device complies with Part 15 of 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 received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for Compliance
could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
Connecting of peripherals requires the use of grounded shielded signal cables.

Adopted  65,000  colour  Organic  Light  Emitting  Diode  (OLED).  OLED  is  self-emissive  and
has  the  following  advantages:  great  brightness,  fast  response  time  for  full  motion
video,  full  viewing  angles,  light  weight,  great  durability,  power  efficiency,  broad
operating  temperature  ranges.  Be  noted  that  this  3-button  remote  with  a  built-in
