Equipment Approval Information

Your telephone equipment is approved for connection to the Public Switched Telephone Network and

is in compliance with parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and Regulations and the Technical Requirements for

Telephone Terminal Equipment published by ACTA.
1 Notification to the Local Telephone Company

On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other information, the US number

and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for the equipment. You must, upon request, provide this

information to your telephone company.
The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may connect to your telephone line and

still have all of these devices ring when your telephone number is called. In most (but not all) areas,

the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line should not exceed 5. To be certain of the

number of devices you may connect to your line as determined by the REN, you should contact your

local telephone company.
A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network must

comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant

telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to a

compatible modular jack that is also compliant. See installation instructions for details.
Notes
• This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company.
• Party lines are subject to state tariffs, and therefore, you may not be able to use your own telephone

equipment if you are on a party line. Check with your local telephone company.

• Notice must be given to the telephone company upon permanent disconnection of your telephone

from your line.

• If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, ensure the

installation of this product does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about

what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.

US Number is located on the cabinet bottom.

REN Number is located on the cabinet bottom.

2 Rights of the Telephone Company

Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may harm the telephone network, the

telephone company shall, where practicable, notify you that temporary discontinuance of service

may be required. Where prior notice is not practicable and the circumstances warrant such

action, the telephone company may temporarily discontinue service immediately. In case of such

temporary discontinuance, the telephone company must: (1) promptly notify you of such temporary

discontinuance; (2) afford you the opportunity to correct the situation; and (3) inform you of your right

to bring a complaint to the Commission pursuant to procedures set forth in Subpart E of Part 68, FCC

Rules and Regulations.
The telephone company may make changes in its communications facilities, equipment, operations

or procedures where such action is required in the operation of its business and not inconsistent with

FCC Rules and Regulations. If these changes are expected to affect the use or performance of your

telephone equipment, the telephone company must give you adequate notice, in writing, to allow you
to maintain uninterrupted service.

Installation

Digital Security System

Your cordless phone uses a digital security system to protect against false ringing,

unauthorized access, and charges to your phone line.

INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate at

frequencies that may cause or receive interference with nearby

TVs, microwave ovens, and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such

interference, the base of the cordless telephone should not be

placed near or on top of a TV, microwave ovens, or VCR. If such

interference continues, move the cordless telephone farther away

from these appliances.
Certain other communications devices may also use the 5.8 GHz

frequency for communication, and, if not properly set, these

devices may interfere with each other and/or your new telephone.

If you are concerned with interference, please refer to the owner’s

manual for these devices on how to properly set channels to avoid

interference. Typical devices that may use the 5.8 GHz frequency

for communication include wireless audio/video senders, wireless

computer networks, multi-handset cordless telephone systems, and

some long-range cordless telephone systems.

Important Installation Guidelines

• Avoid sources of noise and heat, such as motors, fluorescent lighting, microwave

ovens, heating appliances and direct sunlight.

• Avoid areas of excessive dust, moisture and low temperature.
• Avoid other cordless telephones or personal computers.
• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically

designed for wet locations.

• Never touch non-insulated telephone wires or terminals, unless the telephone line

has been disconnected at the network interface.

• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
