THE FCC WANTS YOU TO
KNOW
In the unlikely event that your TAD-
1028 causes problems on the tele-
phone line, the telephone company can
temporarily discontinue your service. If
this happens, the telephone company
attempts to notify you in advance. If ad-
vance notice is not practical, the tele-
phone company notifies you as soon as
possible and advises you of your right to
file a complaint with the FCC.
Also, the telephone company can make
changes to its lines, equipment, opera-
tions, or procedures that could affect
the operation of this TAD-1028. The
telephone company notifies you of
these changes in advance so you can
take the necessary steps to prevent in-
terruption of your telephone service.
Your TAD-1028 complies with the limits
for a Class B digital device as specified
in Part 15 of
FCC Rules
. These limits
provide reasonable protection against
radio and TV interference in a residen-
tial area. However, your TAD-1028
might cause TV or radio interference
even when it is operating properly.
To eliminate interference, you can try
one or more of the following corrective
measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna of the radio or TV
antenna.
• Increase the distance between the
TAD-1028 and the radio or TV.
• Use outlets on different electrical
circuits for the TAD-1028 and the
radio or TV.
Consult your local RadioShack store if
the problem still exists.
LIGHTNING
Your TAD-1028 has built-in protection
circuits to reduce the risk of damage
from surges in telephone line and power
line current. These protection circuits
meet or exceed the FCC requirements.
However, lightning striking the tele-
phone or power lines can damage your
TAD-1028.
Lightning damage is not common. Nev-
ertheless, if you live in an area that has
severe electrical storms, we suggest
that you unplug the TAD-1028 during
storms to reduce the possibility of dam-
age.
