Troubleshooting

• Increase the distance between the equipment and the radio

or TV.

• Use outlets on different electrical circuits for the equipment

and the radio or TV.

Consult your local RadioShack store if the problem continues.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW

In the unlikely event that your system causes problems on the
phone line, the phone company can temporarily discontinue
your service. If this happens, the phone company attempts to
notify you in advance. If advance notice is not practical, the
phone company notifies you as soon as possible and advises
you of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

Also, the phone company can make changes to its lines,
equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the
operation of your system. The telephone company notifies you
of these changes in advance, so you can take the necessary
steps to prevent interruption of your telephone service.

LIGHTNING

Your system has built-in protection circuits to reduce the risk of
damage from surges in telephone line and power line current.
These protection circuits meet or exceed the FCC
requirements. However, lightning striking the telephone or
power lines can damage your system.

Lightning damage is not common. Nevertheless, if you live in an
area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you
unplug your system when storms approach to reduce the
possibility of damage.
