FCC Part 15
Warning: Changes or modifica-
tions to this unit not expressly
approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the
user's authority to operate the
equipment.
The equipment has been tested and
found to comply with 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 and
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 or on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver
is connected.
•Consult the dealer or an
experienced radio/TV technician
for help.
FCC Part 68 and ACTA
information
If this equipment was approved for
connection to the telephone network
prior to July 23, 2001, it complies with
Part 68 of the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) rules. If the
equipment was approved after that
date, it complies with the Part 68 rules
and with Technical Requirements for
Connection of Equipment to the
Telephone Network adopted by the
Administrative Council for Terminal
Attachments (ACTA). We are required
to provide you with the following
information.
1. Product identifier and REN
information
The label on the back or bottom
of this equipment contains,
among other things, an identifier
indicating product approval and
the Ringer Equivalence Number
(REN). This information must
be provided to your local
telephone company upon
request. For equipment
approved prior to July 23, 2001,
the product identifier is preceded
by the phrase “FCC Reg No.”
and the REN is listed separately.
For equipment approved after
that date, the product identifier
is preceded by “US” and a
colon (:), and the REN is
encoded in the product identifier
without a decimal point as the
sixth and seventh characters
following the colon. For example,
the product identifier US:
AAAEQ03T123XYZ would
indicate an REN of 0.3. T h e
REN is used to determine how
many devices you may connect
to your telephone line and still
have them ring when you are
called. In most, but not all areas,
the sum of all RENs should be
five (5.0) or less. You may want
to contact your local telephone
company for more information.
2. Connection and use with
the nationwide telephone
network
The plug and jack used to
connect this equipment to the
premises wiring and the
telephone network must comply
with the applicable Part 68 rules
and technical requirements
adopted by 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. An RJ11 jack
should normally be used for
connecting to a single line and
an RJ14 jack for two lines. See
Installation Instructions in the
user manual. This equipment
may not be used with Coin
Telephone Lines or with Party
Lines. If you have specially
wired alarm dialing equipment
connected to your telephone
line, ensure the connection of
this equipment does not disable
your alarm equipment. If you
have questions about what will
FCC, ACTA and IC Regulations

t2101Eng.p65 2004/12/23, ¤U¤È 04:243
disable alarm equipment, consult
your telephone company or a
qualified installer.
3. Repair instructions
If this equipment is malfunctioning,
it must be unplugged from the
modular jack until the problem has
been corrected. Repairs to this
telephone equipment can only be
made by the manufacturer or its
authorized agents. For repair
procedures, follow the instructions
outlined under the Limited Warranty.
4. Rights of the telephone
com pany
If this equipment is causing
harm to the telephone network,
the telephone company may
temporarily discontinue your
telephone service. The
telephone company is required
to notify you before interrupting
service. If advance notice is not
practical, you will be notified as
soon as possible. You will be
given the opportunity to correct
the problem and the telephone
company is required to inform
you of your right to file a
complaint with the FCC. Your
telephone company may make
changes in its facilities,
equipment, operation, or
procedures that could affect the
proper functioning of this product.
The telephone company is
required to notify you if such
changes are planned.
5. Hearing aid compatibility
If this product is equipped with
a corded or cordless handset,
it is hearing aid compatible.
6. Programming/testing of
emergency numbers
If this product has memory
dialing locations, you may choose
to store police, fire department
and emergency medical service
telephone numbers in these
locations. If you do, please keep
three things in mind:
a We recommend that you also
write the telephone number on the
directory card, so that you can
still dial the emergency number
manually if the memory dialing
feature doesn work.
b This feature is provided only as a
convenience, and the manufac-
turer assumes no responsibil-
ity for customer reliance upon
the memory feature.
c Testing the emergency tele-
phone numbers you have
stored is not recommended.
However, if you do make a call to
an emergency number:
• You must remain on the line
and briefly explain the rea-
son for the call before hang-
ing up.
• Programming/testing of
emergency numbers should
be performed during off-peak
hours, such as in the early
morning or late evening,
when the emergency ser-
vices tend to be less busy.
IC (Industry Canada)
This telephone is registered for
use in Canada.
The term “IC:” before the radio cer-
tification number only signifies that
Industry Canada technical specifi-
cations were met.
Notice:
This equipment meets the applicable
Industry Canada Terminal Equipment
Technical Specifications. This is
confirmed by the registration
number. The abbreviation, IC,
before the registration number
signifies that registration was
performed based on a Declaration
of Conformity indicating that Industry
Canada technical specifications
were met. It does not imply that
Industry Canada approved the
equipment.
Notice:
The Ringer Equivalence Number
(REN) for this terminal equipment is
0.1. The REN assigned to each
terminal equipment provides an
indication of the maximum number
of terminals allowed to be connected
to a telephone interface. The

consist of any combination of devices
subject only to the requirement that
the sum of the Ringer Equivalence
Numbers of all the devices does not
exceed five.
Before installing this equipment,

permissible to be connected to the
facilities of the local telecommuni-
cations company. The equipment
must also be installed using an
acceptable method of connection.
The customer should be aware that
compliance with the above conditions
may not prevent degradation of
services in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should
be made by an authorized Canadian
maintenance facility designated by
the supplier. Any repairs or
alterations made by the user to this
equipment, or equipment
malfunctions, may give the
FCC, ACTA and IC Regulations FCC, ACTA and IC Regulations

telecommunications company
cause to request the user to
disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own
protection that the electrical ground
connections of the power utility,
telephone lines and internal metallic
water pipe system, if present, are
connected together. This precaution
may be particularly important in
rural areas.
Caution:
Users should not attempt to make
such connections themselves, but
should contact the appropriate
electrical inspection authority, or
electrician, as appropriate.
Your 2101 is designed to operate
at the maximum power allowed by
the FCC and IC. This means your
Handset and Base Unit can
communicate only over a certain
distance - which will depend on the
location of the Base Unit and
Handset, weather, and the
construction and layout of your
home or office.
