FCC and ACTA Information

If this equipment was approved for connection to the telephone network prior to July

23, 2001, it complies with Part 68 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
rules. If the equipment was approved after that date, it complies with the Part 68 rules

and with Technical Requirements for Connection of Equipment to the Telephone

Network adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments (ACTA).
We are required to provide you with the following information.
1. Product identifier and REN information

The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among other things, an

identifier indicating product approval and the Ringer Equivalence Number (REN).
This information must be provided to your local telephone company upon request.

For equipment approved prior to July 23, 2001, the product identifier is preceded by

the phrase “FCC Reg No.” and the REN is listed separately. For equipment approved
after that date, the product identifier is preceded by “US” and a colon (:), and the

REN is encoded in the product identifier without a decimal point as the sixth and

seventh characters following the colon. For example, the product identifier

US: AAAEQ03T123XYZ would indicate a REN of 0.3.
The REN is used to determine how many devices you may connect to your telephone

line and still have them ring when you are called. In most, but not all areas, the sum of

all RENs should be five (5.0) or less. You may want to contact your local telephone

company for more information.

jack that is also compliant. An RJ11 jack should normally be used for connecting to a

single line and an RJ14 jack for two lines. See Installation Instructions in the user’s
manual. This equipment may not be used with Coin Telephone Lines or with Party

Lines. If you have specially wired alarm dialing equipment connected to your

telephone line, ensure the connection of this equipment does not disable your alarm
equipment. If you have questions about what will disable the alarm equipment,

consult your telephone company or qualified installer.

3. Repair instructions
