FCC Requirements
Federal Communications Commission Requirements
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules. A label on the BASE UNIT of
this equipment contains, among other information, the ACTA product number and the
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. You must, upon request,
provide this information to your telephone company.
The REN is also useful in determining the quantity of devices that you may connect
to your telephone line and still allow these devices to ring when your telephone number
is called. In most areas, but not all, the sum of the RENs for all devices connected to one
line should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that you may
connect to your line, you should contact your local telephone company.
If your equipment should cause harm to the telephone network, the telephone company
may temporarily disconnect your service. If possible, they will notify you in advance that
temporary discontinuance of service may be required. However, when advanced written
notice is not possible, the telephone company may temporarily discontinue service
without notice if such action is necessary under the circumstances. The telephone
company may make changes in its communication facilities, equipment, operations, or
procedures where such action is reasonably required in the operation of its business
and is not inconsistent with the rules and regulations of the Federal Communications
Commission. Do not attempt to repair or modify this equipment.
WARNING: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for its compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby
TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the BASE UNIT of the cordless
telephone should not be placed on or near a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced,
moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or
eliminate the interference.
IMPORTANT
Placing your BASE UNIT near appliances
such as televisions, refrigerators, radios, or
microwave ovens may cause interference.
