X. Federal Communications Commission Information
This device has been granted a registration number by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC), under part 8 rules and regulations for direct connection to telephone
lines. In order to comply with these FCC rules, the following instructions must be
carefully read and applicable portions followed completely. These instructions must be
provided to the consumer.
A. This equipment complies with part 68 of the FCC rules. A label located on an
outside surface of this equipment contains, among other information, the FCC
registration number and ringer equivalence number (REN). If requested, this
information must be provided to the Telephone Company.
B. As indicated below, the suitable jack (USOC connecting arrangement) for this
equipment is shown. If applicable, the facility interface codes (FIC) and service order
codes (SOC) are shown.
C. The ringer equivalence number (REN) is used to determine the quantity of devices
which, when connected to the telephone line, may result in the device not ringing in
response to an incoming call. In most, but not all, areas, the sum of the RENʼs
should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the maximum number of devices that
may be connected to the line, as determined by the total RENʼs, contact the
Telephone Company to determine the maximum REN for the calling area.
D. If this equipment (indicated with trade name and model) causes harm to the
Telephone Network, the Telephone Company will notify you in advance. If advance
notice is not practical, the Telephone Company will notify the customer as soon as
possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if
you believe it is necessary.
E. The Telephone Company may make changes to its facilities, equipment, operations
or procedures that could affect the operation of this equipment. If this happens, the
Telephone Company will provide advance notice in order for you to make the
necessary modifications needed in order to maintain uninterrupted service.
F. If trouble is experienced with this equipment, (indicated below with trade name and
model, together with a service center in the U. S. A. address and telephone number),
contact the manufacturer for repair and/or warranty information. If the trouble is
causing harm to the Telephone Network, the Telephone Company may request that
you remove the equipment from the Network until the problem is resolved. User
repairs must not be made. Doing so voids the warranty.
G. This equipment must not be used on Telephone Company provided public coin
service. Connection to party lines is subject to State Tariffs, (contact your State
Public Utility Commission for information). If so required, this equipment is hearing
aid compatible (HAC).
H. The user is cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved by
the party responsible for compliance could void the userʼs authority to operate the
equipment.
