11. Information to the User
Section 15.105
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 may cause harmful interference to radio communications if not
installed and used in accordance to the instructions. However, there is no guarantee that the
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:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna;
2. Increase the distance between the equipment and the receiver;
3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected;
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced Radio/TV technician for assistance.
Section 15.21
The user is cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Section 15.27
The user is cautioned that any peripheral device installed with this equipment, such as a modem or
printer, must be connected with a high-quality shielded cable to insure compliance with FCC limits.
12. Maintenance
Testing
It is recommended to periodically test the functionality of an Emergency/Information Phone to ensure it
is operational. You should consult your security service provider about the necessity of such tests and
their frequency. Optionally, Talk-A-Lert polling software can be utilized to verify connections and basic
functioning of all existing Emergency/Information Phones on a regular basis.
Cleaning
It is recommended to periodically clean the surface of the Emergency / Information Phone with a
cleanser or a cleanser and water mixture. If it is safe to use on glass, it is usually safe to use on
stainless steel. Wipe the plate dry when finished.
Inspect the equipment frequently. If you notice discoloration, tarnish or water stains, increase the
frequency of your cleanings. You can also try cleaning with borax, soda ash, or a non-abrasive
commercial cleanser and water. Deeper stains may be removed with a magnesium oxide, ammonia
and water paste. Wipe clean with water rinse and dry the plate.
Light rusting on the faceplate can be removed with a stronger cleaning agent, such as Simichrome
Polish. For stronger corrosion, naval jelly is recommended. To remove or reduce pitting damage
caused by corrosion, mechanical polishing is preferred to chemical cleansing. Scotchbrite works well for
this purpose. Work only in the direction of the existing grain and never use steel wool.
Please refer to ASTM A-967 and ASTM A-380 guidelines regarding stainless steel passivation and
maintenance.
