ACTA. On the [insert location of the label] of this equipment is a label that contains, among
other information, a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this
number must be provided to the 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. The REN for this product is part of the
product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the
REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3).
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. This product meets the applicable Industry Canada technical specifications.
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this terminal equipment is [to be filled with
corresponding REN]. The REN is an indication of the maximum number of devices allowed to
be connected to a telephone interface. The termination on an interface may consist of any
combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the RENs of all the
devices does not exceed five.
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,
ensure the installation of this product does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have
questions about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone company or a
qualified installer.
2 Rights of the Telephone 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
Important Information

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.

use or performance of your telephone equipment, the telephone company must give you
adequate notice, in writing, to allow you to maintain uninterrupted service.
Interference Information
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and the Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS
standard(s). 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.
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.
Privacy of Communications may not be ensured when using this product.
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.
Notice: The changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible

information for a Call Waiting call, you must subscribe to the combined Call Waiting
Caller ID service.

telephone company. This information can include the phone number, date and time; or
the name, phone number, and date and time.

Caller ID
Receiving and Storing CID Records
When you receive a call, Caller ID information is transmitted by the phone company to
your telephone between the first and second ring. The Caller ID information appears
on your phone’s display while the phone rings, giving you a chance to monitor the
information and decide whether or not to answer.
If you are not at home or cannot answer, the telephone stores the information so that
you can see who called while you were unavailable. Caller ID memory automatically
stores the call number, date, time, phone number and name for the last 99 calls. If
Caller ID memory is full, a new call record automatically replaces the oldest call record
in memory.
At any time, you can review the stored information for the last 99 calls. Any calls
received since your last review are marked as NEW in the display, to remind you to
review them.

call:
