FCC Registration Information
Your DVD Player is registered with the Federal Communications Commission and is in compliance with parts 15B and 68, FCC
Rules and Regulations.
1. Notification to the Local Telephone Company/REN Number
On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating among other information, the FCC Registration number and Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN) for the equipment. You must, upon request, provide this information to your telephone
company.
The REN is useful to determine the number of devices you may connect to your telephone line and still have all 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.
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 equipment from your line.
2. Rights of the Telephone Company/telephone network information
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 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 of 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
