FCC INFORMATION
We have designed your system to conform to federal regula-
tions, and you can connect it to most telephone lines. Howev-
er, each system (and each device, such as a telephone or
answering machine) that you connect to the telephone line
draws power from the telephone line. We refer to this power
draw as the device’s
ringer equivalence number, or REN. The
REN is on the bottom of the system.
If you use more than one telephone or other device on the line,
add up all of the RENs. If the total is more than five, your tele-
phone might not ring. In rural areas, a total REN of three might
impair ringer operation. If ringer operation is impaired, remove
a device from the line.
Your system complies with Part 68 of FCC Rules. You must,
upon request, provide the FCC registration number and the
REN to your telephone company. Both numbers are on the
bottom of the system.
Note: You must not connect your system to:
• coin-operated systems
• party-line systems
• most electronic key telephone systems
In the unlikely event that your system causes problems on the
phone line, the phone company can temporarily disconnect
your service. If this happens, the phone company attempts to
notify you in advance. If advance notice is not practical, the
phone company notifies you as soon as possible and advises
you of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
