Handle leaking batteries carefully

• **** Do not touch the liquid with your bare hands.
• If any of the leaking fluid gets into your eyes, loss of vision may result. Do not rub your eyes; use clean water to flush them thoroughly. Then, promptly see a doctor.
• Burning of the skin or dermatitis may result if the fluid has gotten onto your skin or clothing. Use clean water to flush affected areas thoroughly; then, promptly see a doctor.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Placement

• Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; or move it farther away from the source of interference.
• This unit may interfere with radio and television reception. Do not use this unit in the vicinity of such receivers.
• Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing. Should you experience such problems, you should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch them off.
• When moved from one location to another where the temperature and/or humidity are very different, water droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours until the condensation has completely evaporated.
• Do not place containers or anything else containing liquid on top of this unit. Also, whenever any liquid has been spilled on the surface of this unit, be sure to promptly wipe it away using a soft, dry cloth.

Maintenance

• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol, or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.

About the transmitter

• Do not use this device closer than 22 cm (8-11/16 inches) from where a cardiac pacemaker is implanted. Doing so may affect the operation of the cardiac pacemaker.
• The transmitter contains a lithium-ion battery. If you need to dispose of the transmitter, do not simply discard it with your household waste; if the internal lithium-ion battery becomes unusable, you should dispose of it in compliance with local regulations.
• Even if you do not use the transmitter for an extended period of time, you should charge it once every three months to prevent the internal lithium-ion battery from degrading.
• The ambient temperature range during charging is 5–35 °C
• However, in order to take full advantage of the rechargeable lithium-ion battery’s performance, we recommend that you charge it in a temperature range of 10–30 °C.
• If the temperature is outside the appropriate range, a charging error might occur (the BATTERY indicator blinks red) and the battery fails to charge.

Additional Precautions

• Do not use this unit in locations of extremely low or high temperatures. Operating temperature range: 5–40°C
• When disconnecting all cables, grasp the connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable’s internal elements.
• To avoid disturbing others nearby, try to keep the unit’s volume at reasonable levels.

Caution Regarding Radio Frequency Emissions

• The following actions may subject you to a penalty of law.
• Disassembling or modifying this device.
• Removing the certification label affixed to the back of this device.

Licenses/Trademarks

• Roland and BOSS are either registered trademarks or trademarks of Roland Corporation in the United States and/or other countries.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION RADIOFREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENT

For the USA
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 the receiver.
• Connect the equipment 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 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.

This equipment requires shielded interface cables in order to meet the FCC class B limit.
Any unauthorized changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

SUPPLIER’S DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY Compliance Information Statement
For the USA

This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
(FCC Part15 Subpart C §15.247,15.253, 15.255)
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines as this equipment has very low levels of RF energy.
(FCC Part15 Subpart C §15.247,15.253, 15.255)
For Canada
This device contains license-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 device may not cause interference.
2. This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Radiation Exposure Statement
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 absolutely 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 of 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. WL-T(2) has been tested and found to comply with ISED radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets RSS-102 of the ISED radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules.
