This is a manual for a refrigerator. Obviously, it complies with EC directives, but....what is 'radio suppression'??
Thanks in advance. For your info..these units are made in Italy but are sold in the USA.

El eletrodoméstico cumple con la directriz 89/336 de la CE respecto a las interferencias de radio
Se refiere a las interferencias/emisiones que genera todo aparato eléctrico en los receptores de radio y televisión.
Por cierto, es curioso que se refiera aún a la CE (Comunidad Europea) en vez de la UE....

Sorry...in english: This refers to the interferences made by all appliances in the electromagnetic spectrum (which obviously interferes with radio & TV) - in Europe, these devices require a protection so as to minimize such interference.

Such compliance is justified by a label attached at the back or the bottom of the appliance. (I just checked the bottom of my laptop, & indeed it has a reference to CE 89/336! ;-)

\"suppression\" is more than \"interference\"

1. the act of suppressing.
2. the state of being suppressed.
3. Psychoanal. conscious inhibition of an impulse.
4. Bot. the absence of parts normally or usually present due to the action of frost, disease, or insects.
5. Radio, Electronics. the elimination of a component of a varying emission, as the elimination of a frequency or group of frequencies from a signal.

Gonzalo Garcia
: Lo lamento, pero parece que se haya decidido eliminar la radio como quien quiere prohibirla, "acatar" es un verbo transitivo, y no cuadra en absoluto en este contexto. :\

He enviado el comentario demasiado pronto, creo. Respecto de la sugerencia de Rubén, solo aclararía que, lógicamente, la directiva se refiere a la supresión de esas interferencias.

Hi, Mike: you can \"acatar\" una orden, but can never \"acatar\" una directiva. And objects cannot \"acatar\" nothing at all:
1 tr. Tributar sumisión o respeto a una persona o a las órdenes, consejos, etc., que provienen de ella: ‘Acato la orden del rey, pero no la cumplo’.
2 Cumplir o estar dispuesto a cumplir órdenes, disposiciones, leyes, etc.: ‘Un buen ciudadano acata las leyes’.
(Diccionario de uso del español)
I wouldn\'t trust much a bilingual dictionary.
