Plug1, you can't use Babelfish when translating an image, only text.
From what I've been able to discern, It's pretty much an informational insert you'd find when buying some type of electonic device, perhaps a Walkman or Minidisc player (it only says "transceiver"). I believe it's basically saying "this transceiver includes an FM module". Hopefully another native speaker can correct me if I'm wrong.

I have some basic japanese skills
Original japanese:
ご注意
このトランシーバーには、オプションのFMユニットが組み込まれております.
Original romanized japanese:
gochuui
kono transhiibaa ni ha, opushon no fm yunitto ga kumigomarete orimasu.
A somewhat literal translation:
Notice
About this tranceiver, the fm unit option has been integrated.
Seems to say something about the FM option being integrated with this transceiver unit.

Thank you, splice. I was getting a headache trying to figure out "kumi"

tyllwin, It's not just "kumi", it's "kumikomu": to include or insert.

Oh, and I would say "an
optional FM unit is included with this transceiver", making this a
warning because the optional FM unit might get lost, but my Japanese
isn't great so I could be wrong.
My translation is different from pocams because "incorporates" could mean that the FM unit is built into this model.
Maybe I'm just splitting hairs, though. See disclaimer above.

Also, tyllwin, I don't
know how advanced you are or what tools you have at your disposal, but
I recommend JWPCE with Edict for figuring out strange kanji that you
might come across. You can use the SKIP lookup method, which is helpful
if you can't figure out a radical (or never learned them (I didn't)).
For this combination you could just bring up the SKIP lookup window and
type in 1-6-5. The root would be in the first list of choices. Then
you'd just double click on that and look it up in Edict with the
"starts with" option, and kumikomu would come right up.

Ack, two small mistakes in my romanization:
toranshiibaa, not transhiibaa
kumikomarete, not kumigomarete

kumikomarete, not kumigomarete

Many thanks to all posters!
Mystery solved! It has nothing to do with the contents of the box which
contained small silver ornaments. Now I have another mystery.

Just a beginner, and
it's mostly a question of recognizing the forms: I kept seeing that
first radical wrong and kept reading 組 as 租 because the printed version
isn't quite the same as the dictionary that's close to hand...
