NFORMATION
Your telephone equipment is approved for connection to the Public Switched
Telephone Network and is in compliance with parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and
Regulations and the Technical Requirements for Telephone Terminal Equipment
published by ACTA.
1 Notification to the Local Telephone Company
On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other information,
the US number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for the equipment. You
must, upon request, provide this information to your telephone company.
The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may connect to
your telephone line and still have all of these devices ring when your
telephone number is called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the RENs of
all devices connected to one line should not exceed 5. 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.
A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and
telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and
requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and modular plug
is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to a compatible
modular jack that is also compliant. See installation instructions for details.
Notes
•
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone
company.
•
Party lines are subject to state tariffs, and therefore, you may not be able
to use your own telephone equipment if you are on a party line. Check with
your local telephone company.
•
Notice must be given to the telephone company upon permanent
disconnection of your telephone from your line.
•
If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the
telephone line, ensure the installation of this product does not disable your
alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm
equipment, consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.
2 Rights of the Telephone Company
Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may harm the telephone
network, the telephone company shall, where practicable, notify you that temporary
discontinuance of service may be required. Where prior notice is not practicable and
the circumstances warrant such action, the telephone company may temporarily
discontinue service immediately. In case of such temporary discontinuance, the
telephone company must: (1) promptly notify you of such temporary discontinuance; (2)
afford you the opportunity to correct the situation; and (3) inform you of your right to
bring a complaint to the Commission pursuant to procedures set forth in Subpart E of
Part 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.
The telephone company may make changes in its communications facilities,
equipment, operations or procedures where such action is required in the operation of
its business and not inconsistent with FCC Rules and Regulations. If these changes are
expected to affect the use or performance of your telephone equipment, the telephone
company must give you adequate notice, in writing, to allow you to maintain
uninterrupted service.

NTERFERENCE
I
NFORMATION
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.
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, if not
installed and used 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 (that is, the antenna for radio or
television that is “receiving” the interference).
•
Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the
telecommunications equipment and receiving antenna.
•
Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiving antenna is connected.
If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult your dealer or
an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. Also, the
Federal Communications Commission has prepared a helpful booklet, “How To
Identify and Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is available
from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Please specify
stock number 004-000-00345-4 when ordering copies.

ACKUP
This telephone is equipped with a memory holding system
powered by a customer-installed 9-volt alkaline battery (not
included).
When electrical power is interrupted, or the electrical line is
unplugged, the battery operates the clock to retain the time
of day and alarm settings in memory. When the unit is
running on battery power, the digital display does not light
up; however, if wake time occurs during the power
interruption, the alarm sounds if remaining battery power is
adequate. Normal operation resumes after electrical power
is restored.
Install the backup battery as follows:
1. Remove the battery compartment
cover located on the back of the base.
2. Connect a fresh 9-volt alkaline battery
(not included). Interlock the large and
small contacts on the battery clip and
the battery. Once connected, place the
battery inside the battery compartment.
3. Replace the battery compartment cover.
NOTE:
Alkaline (NEDA 1604A) batteries are recommended.
Carbon-zinc (NEDA 1604) batteries may be used but memory
holding time will be substantially reduced. Memory holding time
for a fresh alkaline battery is approximately 3 months (if Wake
System is not activated), which should take care of short,
nuisance-type AC power failures. To preserve battery life, the
phone should remain plugged into an AC electrical outlet. As
the battery gets older, its voltage drops and memory may be lost.
Be sure to replace the battery periodically. A backup battery is
not included with this telephone.
NOTE:
All memory will be lost if the battery is not installed if
the unit is unplugged for more than 60 seconds.
IMPORTANT:
If storing this unit for more than 30 days, remove
the battery.
