THE FCC WANTS YOU TO
KNOW
In the unlikely event that your TAD
causes problems on the telephone line,
the telephone company attempts to no-
tify you in advance. If advance notice is
not practical, the telephone company
notifies you as soon as possible and ad-
vises you of your right to file a complaint
with the FCC.
Also, the telephone company can make
changes to its lines, equipment, opera-
tions, or procedures that could affect
the operation of this TAD. The tele-
phone company notifies you of these
changes in advance so you can take the
necessary steps to prevent interruption
of your telephone services.
Your TAD complies with the limits for a
Class B digital device as specified in
Part 15 of
FCC Rules
. These limits pro-
vide reasonable protection against ra-
dio and TV interference in a residential
area. However, your TAD might cause
TV or radio interference even when it is
operating properly. To eliminate inter-
ference, you can try one or more of the
following corrective measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna of the radio or TV
antenna.
• Increase the distance between the
TAD and the radio or TV.
• Use outlets on different electrical
circuits for the TAD and the radio or
TV.
Consult your local Radio Shack store if
the problem still exists.
LIGHTNING
Your TAD has built-in protection circuits
to reduce the risk of damage from surg-
es in telephone and power line current.
These protection circuits meet or ex-
ceed the FCC requirements. However,
lightning striking the telephone or power
lines can damage your TAD.
Lightning damage is not common. Nev-
ertheless, if you live in an area that has
severe electrical storms, we suggest
that you unplug the TAD during storms
to reduce the possibility of damage.
