This equipment complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation

is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not

cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any

interference received, including interference that may cause

undesired operation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply within the

Rules. These limits provide reasonable protection against

harmful interference in a residential installation.

This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency

energy. If not installed and used in accordance with the

radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that

interference will not occur in a particular installation.

vi SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS & WARRANTY

FCC PART 68 INFORMATION

This telephone is hearing aid compatible.

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. The FCC

Part 68 label is located on the bottom of the product. This label

contains the product’s FCC Registration Number and Ringer

Equivalence Number (REN). You must give this information to

your telephone company if they request it from you.

Only use standard modular telephone jacks to connect to the

telephone network. The appropriate outlet or jack is a USOC

RJ11C or RJ11W, which complies with FCC Part 68 Rules.

The REN is useful when trying to determine the maximum

number of devices you can connect to your telephone line and still

have those devices ring when called. In most, but not all areas,

the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line should

not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices you

can connect to your line, as determined by the REN, contact your

local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for

your calling area.

If this device causes harm to the telephone network, the

telephone company will give you advance notice if temporary

discontinuance of service is required. But if advance notice isn’t

practical, the telephone company will notify you as soon as

possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint

with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.

The telephone company may make changes in its facilities,

equipment, operation, or procedures that could affect the proper

functioning of your equipment. If they do, you will receive

advanced notice in order for you to make necessary changes to

maintain uninterrupted service.

This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the

telephone company. Connection to party lines is subject to state

tariffs.

Repairs to this equipment can only be made by the manufacturer

and its authorized agents. If it appears that this device is causing

harm to the telephone network, the telephone company might

request that the device be unplugged until the problem is fixed.

DO NOT DISASSEMBLE THIS EQUIPMENT.

inconvenience, loss of use of the product, or property damage

caused by this product or its failure to work, telephone company

service calls, or any other incidental or consequential damages.
