IF YOUR PRODUCT UTILIZES
BATTERIES, THE FOLLOWING
ADDITIONAL PRECAUTIONS SHOULD
BE OBSERVED:
1. Use only the type and size of battery(ies)
specified in the user manual.
2. Do not dispose of the battery(ies) in fire.
They may explode. Check with local codes
for possible special disposal instructions.
3. Do not open or mutilate the battery(ies).
Released electrolyte is corrosive and may
cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be
toxic if swallowed.
4. Exercise care in handling battery(ies) in order
not to short out the battery(ies) with
conducting materials such as rings, bracelets,
and keys. The battery(ies) or conductor may
overheat and cause burns.
5. Do not attempt to recharge the battery(ies)
provided with or identified for use with this
product that are not intended to be charged.
The battery(ies) may leak corrosive
electrolyte or explode.
6. Do not attempt to rejuvenate the battery(ies)
provided with or identified for use with this
product by heating them. Sudden release of
the battery(ies) electrolyte may occur causing
burns or irritation to eyes or skin.
7. When replacing battery(ies), all batteries
should be replaced at the same time. Mixing
fresh and discharged batteries could increase
internal cell pressure and rupture the
discharged battery(ies). (Applies to products
employing more than one separately
replaceable primary battery.)
8. When inserting battery(ies) into this product,
the proper polarity or direction must be
observed. Reverse insertion of battery(ies)
can cause charging, and that may result in
leakage or explosion.
9. Remove battery(ies) from this product if
storing over 30 days because the battery(ies)
could leak and damage the product.
10. Discard “dead” battery(ies) as soon as
possible since “dead“ batteries are more
likely to leak in a product.
11. Do not store this product, or the battery(ies)
provided with or identified for use with this
product, in high-temperature areas.
Batteries that are stored in a freezer or
refrigerator for the purpose of extending
shelf life should be protected from
condensation during storage and defrosting.
Batteries should be stabilized at room
temperature prior to use after cold storage.
12. If your product uses rechargeable
battery(ies), charge the battery(ies) only in
accordance with the instructions and
limitation specified in the User Manual.

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
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,

disable your alarm equipment. If you have
questions about what will disable alarm
equipment, consult your telephone company
or a qualified installer.
11.4 Rights of the Phone Company

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

discontinuance; (2) afford you the opportunity to
correct the situation; and (3) inform you of your
right to bring a complaint to the Commission

11.5 Interference Information
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:

25
Appendix
(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.
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.
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.
11.8 Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)
This telephone system meets FCC and Industry
Canada standards for Hearing Aid Compatibility.

Privacy of communications may not be ensured
when using this telephone.
