THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW
DESIGN COMPLIANCE Your telephone is designed to comply
with FCC Rules and Regulations, Part 68. It can be connected to
the telephone network as FCC-registered terminal equipment.
The registration number is printed on the label on the bottom of
your telephone.
NOTIFICATION TO THE TELEPHONE COMPANY As a
customer of the local telephone company, you must, if they ask,
tell them before connecting your telephone to the telephone
company lines. The telephone company may need the FCC
registration number and the ringer equivalence of the telephone.
This information is printed on a label on the bottom of your
telephone.
RINGER EQUIVALENCE The ringer equivalence indicates the
amount of power that your telephone draws from the telephone
company line during ringing. The number is printed on the label
on the bottom of your telephone.
If you have more than one telephone (or other terminal device)
connected to the telephone company line, you should total the
ringer equivalence numbers (REN’s), and be sure that the total
is not more than five. Your telephones may not ring if the total is
more than five. Also, in some rural locations, your telephone may
not ring if the REN total is more than three.
RESTRICTIONS You must not connect your telephone to coin-
operated lines or party lines.
INTERFERENCE POTENTIAL If your telephone has a push-
button dial, it may generate radio frequency energy. If not
properly used, it may interfere with radio and television recep-
tion. If the telephone does cause interference with reception,
move the radio or television to another electrical circuit or another
location. If necessary, you may need to seek advice from an
experienced technician.
INSTALLATION This model telephone must be connected to the
telephone company lines through a modular jack. The required
USOC for the modular jack is RJ11C for desk mounting and RJ11W
for wall mounting. The USOC number is printed on the label on
the bottom of your telephone.
TYPE OF DIALING If your telephone has a push-button TONE
dial, you must have TONE service from your telephone company
to use your telephone for dialing. If your telephone has a rotary
dial, you are not required to have TONE service. Note that you
will usually be charged extra for TONE service.
HEARING-AID COMPATIBILITY The handset on your tele-
phone will work with magnetically-coupled hearing aids. You
can use a hearing aid equipped with a T (Telephone) switch.
IN CASE OF TROUBLE If your telephone should cause
problems on the telephone line, the telephone company can
temporarily disconnect your service. The telephone company
must then notify and allow you to correct the problem.
The telephone company may from time to time change its lines or
equipment. They must notify you if planned changes will affect
your telephone service, to allow you to take steps to prevent
interruptions.
