On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other

information, the US number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for

the equipment. You must, upon request, provide this information to your

telephone company.

The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may connect to your

telephone line and still have all of these devices ring when your telephone number

is called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected

to one line should not exceed 5. To be certain of the number of devices you may

connect to your line as determined by the REN, you should contact your local

telephone company.

A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring

and telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules

and requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and

modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to

a compatible modular jack that is also compliant. See installation instructions

notify you of such temporary discontinuance; (2) afford you the opportunity to

correct the situation; and (3) inform you of your right to bring a complaint to

This device 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 with the limits for a Class

B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed

to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential

installation.

This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if

not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful

interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that

interference will not occur in a particular installation.

Privacy of Communications may not be ensured when using this product.

If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,

which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is

encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following

measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna (that is, the antenna for radio or

television that is “receiving” the interference).

• Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the

telecommunications equipment and receiving antenna.

• Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a circuit different

from that to which the receiving antenna is connected.

If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult your dealer or an

experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. Also, the Federal

Communications Commission has prepared a helpful booklet, “How To Identify and

Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is available from the U.S.

receiving mode when you nish talking.)

• Surfaces affected by vibration.

• Recessed areas such as in a corner, under a cupboard, or next to a
