Useful Information
Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements
adopted by the ACTA. On the bottom of this equipment is a label that
contains, among other information, a product identifier in the format
US:ACJ---------- . If requested, this number must be provided to the telephone
company.
10
Registration No ............(found on the bottom of the unit)
Ringer Equivalence No.
(REN).......0.2
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 the product. It is designed to be connected to a
compatible modular jack that is also compliant.
The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected
to a telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the
devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas,
the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of
devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs,
contact the local telephone company. For products approved after July 23,
2001, the REN for the 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).
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone
company will notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service
may be required. But if advance notice isn’t practical, the telephone company
will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your
right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment,
operations or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If
this happens the telephone company will provide advance notice in order for
you to make necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.
If the equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone
company may request that you disconnect the equipment until the problem is
resolved.
If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone
line, ensure the installation of this equipment does not disable your alarm
equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment,
consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.
11
This equipment is hearing aid compatible as defined by the FCC in 47 CFR
Section 68.316 {check w/ CCT)
When you hold the phone to your ear, noise might be heard in your Hearing
Aid. Some Hearing Aids are not adequately shielded from external RF (radio
frequency) energy. If noise occurs, use an optional headset accessory or the
speakerphone option (if applicable) when using this phone. Consult with your
audiologist or Hearing Aid manufacturer about the availability of Hearing Aids
which provide adequate shielding to RF energy commonly emitted by digital
devices.
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.
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.
12
– 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.
FCC RF Exposure Warning:
This product complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth
for an uncontrolled environment.
To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, the base unit must
be installed and operated 20 cm (8 inches) or more between the
product and all person’s body (excluding extremities of hands,
wrist and feet).
This product may not be collocated or operated in conjunction with
any other antenna or transmitter.
The handset may be carried and operated with only the specific
provided belt-clip. Other non-tested belt-clips or similar body-worn
accessories may not comply and must be avoided.
