8.0 FCC & UL CERTIFICATION STATEMENTS:
FCC – PART 68: This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the
requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the back of your FreezeAlarm is a label that contains,
among other information, a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If

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

The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line.
Excessive REN’s on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an
incoming call. In most but not all areas, the sum of REN’s should not exceed five (5.0). To be
certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total
REN’s, contact your local telephone company. The REN for this product is shown above and
is also identified as part of the FCC product identifier shown on the label on the back of your
FreezeAlarm. The REN for other devices will be identified on a label on the product in the
FCC product identifier or listed separately. If there is a product identifier number, it will be in
a format as US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The ## is the REN number shown without a decimal point
(e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3).
If this FreezeAlarm causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify
you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But if advance
notice isn’t practical, the telephone company will notify the customer 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, operations or
procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens, the telephone
company will provide advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications to
maintain uninterrupted service.
If trouble is experienced with your FreezeAlarm, for repair or warranty information, please
contact Control Products at 952-361-4101. Other contact numbers and information can be

network, the telephone company may request that you disconnect the equipment until the
problem is resolved. The FreezeAlarm should be repaired only by Control Products or an
authorized service representative. Contact Control Products for the nearest authorized service
representative.
Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility
commission, public service commission or corporation commission for information.

FCC – PART 15: 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

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. 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

Canada’s Industry Standard:
Notice: The Canadian Industry Standard label identifies certified equipment. This certification
means the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective operational and
safety requirements. The Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the
user’s satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to
the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed
using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases, where the company’s inside wiring
is associated with a single line, individual service may be extended by means of a certified
connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that
compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some
situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility
designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or
equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user
to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power
utility telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected
together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
CAUTION: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should
contact the appropriate electric inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
UL & CUL Listing:
The plug in transformer included with your FreezeAlarm is UL/CUL listed as a Class 2
