Notes. The central black hole mass and the accretion disk luminosity are taken as 7 × 107 M⊙ and 2 × 1043 erg s−1, respectively, and we assume the characteristic temperature of the IR-torus to be 1100 K. A viewing angle of 2° is adopted. For the given accretion disk luminosity, the size of the BLR and dusty torus are 4.6 × 10−3 pc and 3.4 × 10−2 pc, respectively. We note that the jet powers are computed by assuming a two-sided jet.
