11 Appendix

or a qualified installer.
11.1 Equipment approval Information
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.
11.4 Rights of the Phone 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.
11.2 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.
11.3 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
11.5 Interference Information
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
Appendix
24
(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.
11.6 Noise
Electrical pulse noise is present at one time or
another. This is most intense during electrical
storms. Certain kinds of electrical equipment,
such as light dimmers, fluorescent bulbs, motors,
fans, etc., also generate pulse noise. Because radio
frequencies are susceptible to this, you may on
occasion hear pulse noise through the receiver.
This is usually only a minor annoyance and should
not be interpreted as a defect of the unit.
11.7 FCC RF Radiation Exposure
Statement
This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation
exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment. This equipment should be installed
and operated with a minimum distance of
20 centimeters between the radiator and your
body. This transmitter must not be co-located or
operating in conjunction with any other antenna
or transmitter.
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.
For hand held operation, this phone has been
tested and meets the FCC RF exposure
guidelines. For Body-worn operation, use only
with the belt clip. Use of other accessories may
not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines.
• 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.

This telephone system meets FCC and Industry
Canada standards for Hearing Aid Compatibility.
