FCC and Other Information
If requested by the telephone company, inform them as follows:
FCC Registration No. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .(found on the bottom of the unit)
Ringer Equivalence . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .0.1B
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 No. (REN):
The 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 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 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.
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 hours or
late evenings.
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.
Privacy of communications may not be ensured when using this phone.
– 16 –
CAUTION:
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this device.
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.
Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference
to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of
the cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR. If
interference is experienced, move the cordless telephone further away from the
TV or VCR. This will often reduce or eliminate interference.
≥Environment—do not place the unit in a room where the temperature is less
than 5oC (41oF) or greater than 40oC (104oF). Allow 10 cm (4q) clearance
around the unit for proper ventilation. Avoid excessive smoke, dust,
mechanical vibration, shock, or direct sunlight.
≥Medical—consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as
pacemakers, to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF
(radio frequency) energy. (The unit operates in the frequency range of
902MHz to 928MHz and the power output level can range from 0.001 watts to
0.1 watts.) Do not use the unit in health care facilities if any regulations posted
in the area instruct you not to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be
using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF (radio frequency)
energy.
≥Routine care—wipe the unit with a soft cloth. Do not use benzine, thinner, or
any abrasive powder. When you leave the unit unused for long period of time,
unplug the AC adaptor from the outlet.
≥If there is any trouble—disconnect the unit from the telephone line and
connect a known working phone. If the known working phone operates
properly, have your unit repaired by one of the authorized Panasonic Factory
Service Centers. If the known working phone does not operate properly,
consult your telephone company.
