This 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 received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

NOTE
This unit has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, under Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This unit generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used by 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 unit does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the unit 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 unit and receiver.
Connect the unit to 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.

This unit must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

For customers in Canada
This unit contains licence-exempt transmitter(s)/receiver(s) that comply with Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada’s licence-exempt RSS(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This unit may not cause interference; and
(2) This unit must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the unit.

This unit complies with FCC/ISED radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines and RSS-102 of the ISED radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules as this unit has very low levels of RF energy. This conformity statement is only applicable to the YY2976. 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 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, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. The unit has been tested and found to comply with FCC/ISED radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines and RSS-102 of the ISED radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules.

This conformity statement is only applicable to the YY2979. High volume may adversely affect your hearing. Do not use the unit while walking, driving, or cycling. Doing so may cause traffic accidents. Do not use in hazardous areas unless the surrounding sound can be heard. The unit is not waterproof. If water or foreign matter enters the unit, it may result in fire or electric shock. If water or foreign matter enters the unit, stop use immediately and consult your nearest Sony dealer. In particular, be careful in the following cases.

When using the unit near a sink or liquid container
Be careful that the unit does not fall into a sink or container filled with water.
When using the unit in the rain snow, or humid locations
When using the unit while you are perspiring
If you touch the unit with wet hands or put the unit in the pocket of a damp article of clothing, the unit may get wet.

For details on the effects of contact with the human body from the mobile phone or other wireless devices connected to the unit, refer to the instruction manual of the wireless device. Never insert the USB plug when the unit or charging cable is wet. If the USB plug is inserted while the unit or charging cable is wet, a short circuit may occur due to liquid (tap water, seawater, soft drink, etc.) or foreign matter on the unit or charging cable, and cause abnormal heat generation or malfunction.

Do not place this product close to persons who use such medical devices. Consult your doctor before using this product if you use any such medical device. There is a danger that small parts may be swallowed. After use, store in a location out of reach of small children.
