DESIGN COMPLIANCE Your telephone is designed to comply with

FCC Rules and Regulations, Part 68. It can be connected to the

telephone network as FCC-registered terminal equipment. The

registration number is printed on the label on the bottom of your

telephone.

NOTIFICATION TO THE TELEPHONE COMPANY As a customer

of the local telephone company, you must, if they ask, tell them

before connecting your telephone to the telephone company lines.

The telephone company may need the FCC registration number and

the ringer equivalence of the telephone. This information is printed

on a label on the bottom of your telephone.

RINGER EQUIVALENCE The ringer equivalence indicates the

amount of power that your telephone draws from the telephone

company line during ringing. The number is printed on the label on

the bottom of your telephone.

If you have more than one telephone (or other terminal device)

connected to the telephone company line, you should total the

ringer equivalence numbers (REN’s), and be sure that the total is

not more than five. Your telephones may not ring if the total is more

than five. Also, in some rural locations, your telephone may not ring

if the REN total is more than three.

RESTRICTIONS You must not connect your telephone to coin-

operated lines or party lines.

INTERFERENCE POTENTIAL Your telephone has a pushbutton

dial that generates radio frequency energy. If not properly used,

it may interfere with radio and television reception. If the telephone

does cause interference with reception, move the radio or televi-

sion to another electrical circuit or another location. If necessary,

you may need to seek advice from an experienced technician.

INSTALLATION This model telephone must be connected to the

telephone company lines through a modular jack. The required

USOC for the modular jack is RJ11C for desk mounting and RJ11W

for wall mounting. The USOC number is printed on the label on the

bottom of your telephone.

TYPE OF DIALING Your telephone has a TONE/PULSE switch that

allows Tone or Pulse dialing. To use TONE dialing, you must have

TONE service from your telephone company to use your telephone

for dialing. Note that you will usually be charged extra for TONE

service.

HEARING-AID COMPATIBILITY The handset on your telephone

will work with magnetically-coupled hearing aids. You can use a

hearing aid equipped with a T (Telephone) switch.

IN CASE OF TROUBLE If your telephone should cause problems

on the telephone line, the telephone company can temporarily

disconnect your service. The telephone company must then notify

and allow you to correct the problem.

The telephone company may from time to time change its lines or

equipment. They must notify you if planned changes will affect your

telephone service, to allow you to take steps to prevent interrup-
tions.
