The statement
Under 47 CFR 15.19(a)(3), "All other devices shall bear the following statement in a conspicuous location on the device: 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."
Where it goes
The statement goes "in a conspicuous location on the device." For a device in "sections connected by wires and marketed together," the rule says it "is required to be affixed only to the main control unit."
Small devices
When a device is too small for the statement "in a font that is four-point or larger," and "does not have a display that can show electronic labeling," the rule says it "shall be placed in the user manual and must also either be placed on the device packaging or on a removable label attached to the device."
What the label is not
An FCC statement on a device is not a statement about its security. We never call a product FCC certified or FCC approved.
This is general information, not legal or security advice.
FAQ
General information only. No keypad, lock, or code can guarantee that a door will stay secure or that a break-in will not happen. Keep codes private, change any code you have shared, and follow the maker's instructions. Before you put a keypad or lock on a door people use to leave a building, check with your local building or fire official. In an emergency, call 911.
