FCC INFORMATION

Part 68 is a Federal regulation which requires equipment to be tested and
registered with the FCC prior to its connection to the network. This
equipment complies with Part 68 of FCC rules. On the bottom of the
telephone is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC
Registration Number and the Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this
equipment. You must, upon request, provide this information to your
telephone company.

The Ringer Equivalence Number, which is used to determine the
number of devices you may connect to your phone line, indicates the
amount of power that your telephone draws from the telephone company
line during ringing. 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.

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.

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
interruptions.

Part 15 regulates the electromagnetic energy emitted by equipment to
minimize interference to radio, television, and other wireless devices. This
telephone complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. In the unlikely event
that interference occurs, move the telephone and/or radio, television, etc.
to increase the separation distance.
