FCC and Other Information

If requested by the telephone company, inform them as follows:
Registration No.  ....................................................(found on the bottom of the unit)
Ringer Equivalence  ...........................................................................................0.1B
The particular telephone line to which the equipment is connected.

This unit must not be connected to a coin operated line.
If you are on a party line, check with your local telephone company.

Ringer Equivalence No. (REN):

The REN is useful in determining the quantity of devices you may connect to your
telephone line and still have all of those devices ring when your telephone number
is called. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the REN’s of all devices connected
to one line should not exceed five (5.0). 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 to determine the maximum REN for your calling area. 

In the event terminal equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone
company should notify the customer, if possible, that service may be stopped.

However, where prior notice is impractical, the company may temporarily cease
service providing that they:
(a) Promptly notify the customer.
(b) Give the customer an opportunity to correct the problem with their equipment.
(c) Inform the customer of the right to bring a complaint to the Federal

Communication Commission pursuant to procedures set out in FCC Rules and
Regulations Subpart E of Part 68.

The Telephone Company may make changes in its communications facilities,
equipment, operations or procedures, where such action is reasonably required in
the operation of its business and is not inconsistent with the rules and regulations
in 47 CFR Part 68.

If such changes can be reasonably expected to render any customer terminal
equipment incompatible with telephone company communications facilities, or
require modification or alteration of such terminal equipment, or otherwise materially
affect its use or performance, the customer shall be given adequate notice in
writing, to allow the customer an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.

When programming emergency numbers and/or making test calls to emergency
numbers:
1. Remain on the line and briefly explain to the dispatcher the reason for the call

before hanging up.

2. Perform such activities in the off-peak hours, such as early morning hours or

late evenings.

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.

Privacy of communications may not be ensured when using this phone.
