IF YOUR PRODUCT UTILIZES
BATTERIES, THE FOLLOWING
ADDITIONAL PRECAUTIONS
SHOULD BE OBSERVED:
1. Use only the type and size of
battery(ies) specified in the user
manual.
2. Do not dispose of the battery(ies) in
fire. They may explode. Check with
local codes for possible special
disposal instructions.
3. Do not open or mutilate the
battery(ies). Released electrolyte is
corrosive and may cause damage to
the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if
swallowed.
4. Exercise care in handling battery(ies)
in order not to short out the
battery(ies) with conducting
materials such as rings, bracelets, and
keys. The battery(ies) or conductor
may overheat and cause burns.
5. Do not attempt to recharge the
battery(ies) provided with or
identified for use with this product
that are not intended to be charged.
The battery(ies) may leak corrosive
electrolyte or explode.
6. Do not attempt to rejuvenate the
battery(ies) provided with or
identified for use with this product
by heating them. Sudden release of
the battery(ies) electrolyte may
occur causing burns or irritation to
eyes or skin.
7. When replacing battery(ies), all
batteries should be replaced at the
same time. Mixing fresh and discharged
batteries could increase internal cell
pressure and rupture the discharged
battery(ies). (Applies to products
employing more than one separately
replaceable primary battery.)
8. When inserting battery(ies) into this
product, the proper polarity or
direction must be observed. Reverse
insertion of battery(ies) can cause
charging, and that may result in
leakage or explosion.
9. Remove battery(ies) from this
product if storing over 30 days
because the battery(ies) could leak
and damage the product.
10. Discard “dead” battery(ies) as soon
as possible since “dead“ batteries
are more likely to leak in a product.
11. Do not store this product, or the
battery(ies) provided with or
identified for use with this product, in
high-temperature areas. Batteries that
are stored in a freezer or refrigerator
for the purpose of extending shelf life
should be protected from
condensation during storage and
defrosting. Batteries should be
stabilized at room temperature prior
to use after cold storage.
12. If your product uses rechargeable
battery(ies), charge the battery(ies)
only in accordance with the
instructions and limitation specified
in the User Manual.

20.1 Equipment approval
Information
Your telephone equipment is approved
for connection to the public switched
telephone network and is in compliance
with parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and
Regulations and the Technical
Requirements for Telephone Terminal
Equipment published by ACTA.
20.2 Notification to the local
telephone company
On the bottom of this equipment is a
label indicating, among other information,
the US number and Ringer Equivalence
Number (REN) for the equipment. You
must, upon request, provide this
information to your 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. 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.
20.3 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.
20.4 Rights of the Phone
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 service may
be required. Where prior notice is not
practicable and the circumstances
warrant such action, the telephone
company may temporarily discontinue
service immediately. In case of such
56 Appendix
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.
The telephone company may make
changes in its communications facilities,
equipment, operations or procedures
where such action is required in the
operation of its business and not
inconsistent with FCC rules and
Regulations. If these changes are
expected to affect the use or
performance of your telephone
equipment, the telephone company must
give you adequate notice, in writing, to
allow you to maintain uninterrupted
service.
20.5 Interference Information
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.
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 (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.
Appendix 57
20.6 Noise
Electrical pulse noise is present at one
time or another. This is most intense
during electrical storms. Certain kinds of
electrical equipment, such as light
dimmers, fluorescent bulbs, motors, fans,
etc., also generate pulse noise. Because
radio frequencies are susceptible to this,
you may on occasion hear pulse noise
through the receiver. This is usually only
a minor annoyance and should not be
interpreted as a defect of the unit.
20.7 FCC RF Radiation Exposure
Statement
This equipment complies with FCC RF
radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This
equipment should be installed and
operated with a minimum distance of 20
centimeters between the radiator and
your body. This transmitter must not be
co-located or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter.
For hand held operation, this phone has
been tested and meets the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. For Body-worn
operation, use only with the belt clip. Use
of other accessories may not ensure
compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines.
20.8 Hearing Aid Compatibility
(HAC)
This telephone system meets FCC and
Industry Canada standards for Hearing
Aid Compatibility.
20.9 Privacy
Privacy of communications may not be
ensured when using this telephone.
