When you call the unit from a remote location, the number of rings will tell you if there are
any new voice messages. If the unit answers on the second ring, there is at least one
new recorded message. If the unit answers on the fourth ring, there are no new recorded
messages. To save the toll charges for the call, hang up immediately when you hear the
third ring. The third ring indicates that there are no new recorded messages.
RINGER OFF: The unit will answer without ringing.
●If you subscribe to a Caller ID service, set to 2 or more rings.

FCC Information
List of FCC requirements and information!
If required by the telephone company, inform them
of the following.
●FCC Registration No.:
(found on the rear of the unit)
●Ringer Equivalence No.:
(found on the rear of the unit)
●The particular telephone line to which the
equipment is connected.
This unit must not be connected to a coin operated
line. If you are on a party line, check with your
local telephone company.
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN):
This REN is useful in determining the quantity of
devices you may connect to your telephone line
and still have all of those devices ring when your
telephone number is called. In most but not all
areas, the sum of the REN’s of all devices
connected to one line should not exceed five (5.0).
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
to determine the maximum REN for your calling
area.
In the event that terminal equipment causes harm
to the telephone network, the telephone company
should notify the customer, if possible, that service
may be stopped. However, where prior notice is
impractical, the company may temporarily cease
service providing that they:
a) Promptly notify the customer.
b) Give the customer an opportunity to correct the
problem with their equipment.
c) Inform the customer of the right to bring a
complaint to the Federal Communication
Commission pursuant to procedures set out in
FCC Rules and Regulations Subpart E of Part
68.
The Telephone Company may make changes in its
communications facilities, equipment operations, or
procedures where such action is reasonably
required in the operation of its business and is not
inconsistent with the rules and regulations in FCC
Part 68. If such changes can be reasonably
expected to render any customer terminal
equipment incompatible with telephone company
communications facilities, or require modification or

82

alteration of such terminal equipment, or otherwise
materially affect its use or performance, the
customer shall be given adequate notice in writing,
to allow the customer an opportunity to maintain
uninterrupted service.

CAUTION:
Any changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user’s authority to operate this
device.
When programming emergency numbers and/or
making test calls to emergency numbers:
1. Remain on the line and briefly explain to the
dispatcher the reason for the call before
hanging up.
2. Perform such activities in the off-peak hours;
such as early morning or late evenings.
This telephone provides magnetic coupling to
hearing aids.

NOTE:
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.
—Increase the separation between the equipment
and receiver.
—Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
—Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.

Free replacement 3 and repair program

The Panasonic Fax Advantage Consumer Service Program.
Panasonic knows that if your fax machine is not up and running, neither is
your business. That’s why we created the Panasonic Fax Advantage
Program. Included at no extra cost with the purchase of a new and
unused Panasonic Fax Machine, the Fax Advantage Program can provide
a free replacement unit 3 if your original unit is in need of repair.
Here’s how it works:
1. If you have a problem with your fax that you purchased new and
unused while it is covered by the period of limited warranty 1, call our
toll-free help-line at 1-800-HELP-FAX2.
2. Talk to one of our technical experts to diagnose your problem over the
phone.
3. If repairs are necessary and you are entitled to service under the
terms and conditions of the limited warranty 4, we will send a
refurbished replacement unit to you by UPS Ground service delivery.
The shipping method is upgradable for an extra charge.
A second option available under our limited warranty is to mail-in or carryin your fax to one of our Regional Service centers, where the unit will be
repaired and returned to you.
Instructions:
If you choose to receive a replacement unit under the Fax Advantage
Program, Panasonic will provide a replacement unit which will be
completely refurbished, quality-tested by Panasonic technicians and
individually hand-inspected before it is shipped to you. You will keep the
replacement unit and send the original unit to us in the replacement
unit’s box. UPS will pick up the unit at no charge to you, should it be
determined that you are entitled to warranty service. A proof-of-purchase
must be included with the returned product. Any unit that is replaced by
Panasonic and not shipped with proper proof-of-purchase by you will be
subject to a minimum $100.00 charge. The original unit must be
properly packaged in the same manner as the replacement unit, utilizing
the packing materials provided. Damage due to improper or inadequate
packing will be charged to you as an out-of-warranty cost.

If our 1-800-HELP-FAX technicians determine that your unit may be an
“out-of-box failure” 5, we will attempt to provide you with a factory-new
replacement unit 6. You must ship a copy of your receipt with your
original unit to verify that you purchased the unit within 10 days prior to
your 1-800-HELP-FAX call.
Requirements:
You must give our technicians a valid credit card number (Discover,
VISA, Master Card, or American Express/Optima). Product that is not
returned to Panasonic by 10 business days after shipment of the
replacement product will be charged to your credit card account at
Panasonic’s Suggested Retail Price (see dealer for details). If your
original unit is not eligible for warranty service, your card will be
charged for the non-warranty repair of the unit at Panasonic’s current
rate for parts and labor and for any shipping charges associated with
this program. If you do not wish to pay out-of-warranty repair costs,
you will be responsible for returning the replacement unit to Panasonic
and for paying all shipping charges associated with this program
including the UPS delivery of the replacement product to you,
shipment of the problem unit to Panasonic, shipment of the
replacement unit back to Panasonic and the return of your original
unit back to you. Credit status will be verified prior to sending the
replacement product.
1. See dealer for limited warranty details.
2. After the fax advantage program, contact our Continued Services
Technical Support Line at 1-900-555-PANA (1-900-555-7262), for fee
based technical support.
3. Replacement unit is refurbished.
4. Replacement program is only available in the 50 United States and is
subject to termination at any time without advance notice.
5. “Out-of-box failure” is an inoperable unit that was purchased no more
than 10 days prior to your 1-800-HELP-FAX call, and would
otherwise qualify for warranty service under the terms and conditions
of the limited warranty.
6. Panasonic reserves the right to send a refurbished unit.
