CS 5500 Operator’s Guide

Registration information
The CS 5500 has been registered with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). It meets FCC requirements and may be connected
directly to your telephone line. On the bottom of this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC registration number
and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. If requested, this information must be provided to the telephone company. Use the
REN to help determine the maximum number of devices you can connect to your telephone without eliminating their ability to ring when your
number is called. In many areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line should not exceed 5.0. To determine how many
devices you can connect to your line, contact your local telephone company to find out the maximum REN for your area.
The CS 5500 may not be connected to a party line or coin line telephone network. If the CS 5500 does not function properly, disconnect the unit.
Follow the instructions provided in the section "Two year limited warranty" to obtain the necessary repair service.
If the CS 5500 causes harm to the network, the telephone company may discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in
advance. But if advance notice is not 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 the telephone network. Should these changes affect the CS 5500, the telephone company must
notify you, in writing, to enable you to maintain uninterrupted service.
If you need to order a modular jack from the telephone company, request either a USOCRJ11C or a USOCRJ13C.
