Regulatory information_ 12
The Telephone Company may make changes in its communications facilities, equipment operations or
procedures where such action is reasonably required in the operation of its business and is not inconsistent
with the rules and regulations in FCC Part 68. If such changes can be reasonably expected to render any
customer terminal equipment incompatible with telephone company communications facilities, or require
modification or alteration of such terminal equipment, or otherwise materially affect its use or performance, the
customer shall be given adequate notice in writing, to allow the customer an opportunity to maintain
uninterrupted service
Ringer Equivalence Number
The Ringer Equivalence Number and FCC Registration Number for this machine may be found on the label
located on the bottom or rear of the machine. In some instances you may need to provide these numbers to
the telephone company.
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is a measure of the electrical load placed on the telephone line, and is
useful for determining whether you have “overloaded” the line. Installing several types of equipment on the
same telephone line may result in problems making and receiving telephone calls, especially ringing when
your line is called. The sum of all Ringer Equivalence Numbers of the equipment on your telephone line should
be less than five in order to assure proper service from the telephone company. In some cases, a sum of five
may not be usable on your line. If any of your telephone equipment is not operating properly, you should
immediately remove it from your telephone line, as it may cause harm to the telephone network.
The equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the
rear of this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, a product identifier in the format
US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be provided to the telephone company.
FCC Regulations state that changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the
manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment. In the event that terminal
equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company should notify the customer
that service may be stopped. However, where prior notice is impractical, the company may temporarily
cease service, providing that they:
a) promptly notify the customer.
b) give the customer an opportunity to correct the equipment problem.
c) inform the customer of the right to bring a complaint to the Federal Communication Commission
pursuant to procedures set out in FCC Rules and Regulations Subpart E of Part 68.
You should also know that:
• Your machine is not designed to be connected to a digital PBX system.
• If you intend to use a computer modem or fax modem on the same phone line as your machine, you may
experience transmission and reception problems with all the equipment. It is recommended that no other
equipment, except for a regular telephone, share the line with your machine.
• If your area experiences a high incidence of lightning or power surges, we recommend that you install
surge protectors for both the power and the telephone lines. Surge protectors can be purchased from your
dealer or telephone and electronic specialty stores.
• When programming emergency numbers and/or making test calls to emergency numbers, use a
non-emergency number to advise the emergency service dispatcher of your intentions. The dispatcher will
give you further instructions on how to actually test the emergency number.
• This machine may not be used on coin service or party lines.
• This machine provides magnetic coupling to hearing aids.
You may safely connect this equipment to the telephone network by means of a standard modular jack, USOC
RJ-11C.
Replacing the Fitted Plug (for UK Only)
Important
The mains lead for this machine is fitted with a standard (BS 1363) 13 amp plug and has a 13 amp fuse. When
you change or examine the fuse, you must re-fit the correct 13 amp fuse. You then need to replace the fuse
cover. If you have lost the fuse cover, do not use the plug until you have another fuse cover.
Contact the people from you purchased the machine.
The 13 amp plug is the most widely used type in the UK and should be suitable. However, some buildings
(mainly old ones) do not have normal 13 amp plug sockets. You need to buy a suitable plug adaptor. Do not
remove the moulded plug.
If you cut off the moulded plug, get rid of it straight away.
You cannot rewire the plug and you may receive an electric shock if you plug it into a socket.
