FCC REGISTRATION INFORMATION
In compliance with FCC Rules and Regulations, Part 68, you are advised that:
1. Before installing your headset, you must notify the owner of the host equipment (i.e., leasing company).
Provide them with the headset registration number. The registration number is printed on the headset
registration label.
2. If the installation of your headset requires the installation of a headset jack/JackSet
®
that connects to the
internal wiring of leased telephones or other devices, such connections can only be made with permission
of the owner of the host equipment.
3. In case of trouble, disconnect your headset to determine the trouble source. If the headset is the source,
modifications or repairs can only be made by the headset manufacturer or its authorized representatives.
SERVICE INFORMATION
Should you encounter difficulties or be uncertain about proper installation, please follow the procedures below:
•
Replace the faulty amplifier with a working amplifier. If the problem persists, the problem is probably not in the
amplifier, but in the equipment to which it is connected.
•
If the replacement clears the problem the trouble is in the amplifier.
Should your amplifier fail to operate properly, and you wish to obtain service under the Warranty specified in your
agreement with AVAYA, please contact your AVAYA representative. When returning the amplifier for service, it is
not necessary to include the headset.
