Important Safety Instructions

1. Read and follow all warning notices and instructions marked on the product or
included in the manual.
2. This product is intended to be used with a three-wire grounding type plug – a plug
which has a grounding pin. This is a safety feature. Equipment grounding is vital to
ensure safe operation. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding type plug by
modifying the plug or using an adapter.
Prior to installation, use an outlet tester or a voltmeter to check the ac receptacle
for the presence of earth ground. If the receptacle is not properly grounded, the
installation must not continue until a qualified electrician has corrected the problem.
If a three-wire grounding type power source is not available, consult a qualified
electrician to determine another method of grounding the equipment.
3. Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable
operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, these slots and
openings must not be blocked or covered.
4. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord and do not locate the product
where persons will walk on the power cord.
5. Do not attempt to service this product yourself, as opening or removing covers may
expose you to dangerous high voltage points or other risks. Refer all servicing to
qualified service personnel.
6. General purpose cables are provided with this product. Special cables, which may
be required by the regulatory inspection authority for the installation site, are the
responsibility of the customer.
7. When installed in the final configuration, the product must comply with the
applicable Safety Standards and regulatory requirements of the country in which it
is installed. If necessary, consult with the appropriate regulatory agencies and
inspection authorities to ensure compliance.
8. A rare phenomenon can create a voltage potential between the earth grounds of
two or more buildings. If products installed in separate buildings are
interconnected, the voltage potential may cause a hazardous condition. Consult a
qualified electrical consultant to determine whether or not this phenomenon exists
and, if necessary, implement corrective action prior to interconnecting the products.
9. In addition, if the equipment is to be used with telecommunications circuits, take the
following precautions:
— Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
— Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically
designed for wet locations.
— Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line
has been disconnected at the network interface.
— Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
— Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm.
There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
— Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

Government Requirements
Certain governments require that instructions pertaining to connection to the telephone
network be included in the installation and operation manual. Specific instructions are
listed in the following sections.

United States – Notice to Users of the Telephone Network
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. On the bottom of the equipment
is a label or silk-screened text that contains, among other information, the FCC
registration number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. If
requested, please provide this information to your telephone company.
The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices you may connect to your
telephone line and still have all of those devices ring when your number is called. In
most areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices should not exceed 5. Call your local
telephone company to ascertain the maximum REN for your calling area.
If your Model 3610 or 3611 DSU with DBM causes harm to the telephone network, the
telephone company may discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, they will
notify you in advance. But if advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon
as possible. You will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
24

Your telephone company may make changes in facilities, equipment, operations, or
procedures that could affect the proper operation of your equipment. If so, you will be
given advance notice so as to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted
service.
The DBM cannot be used on public coin-operated telephone service provided by the
telephone company. Connection to party-line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact
the state public utility commission, public service commission, or corporation
commission for information.
No repairs may be performed by the user. Should you experience difficulty with this
equipment, refer to Warranty, Sales, Service, and Training inside the cover of this
document.
For Digital Data Service (DDS) installations, inform the local telephone company of the
appropriate facility interface code for the service you desire.

If you experience trouble with this equipment, please contact your sales or service
representative (as appropriate) for repair or warranty information. If the trouble is
causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may request that you
remove the equipment from the network until the problem is resolved.
