SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FCC and ACTA Information
If this equipment was approved for connection to the telephone network prior
to July 23, 2001, it complies with Part 68 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules. If the equipment was approved after that date, it complies
with the Part 68 rules and with Technical Requirements for Connection of
Equipment to the Telephone Network adopted by the Administrative Council
for Terminal Attachments (ACTA). We are required to provide you with the following information.
1. Product identifier and REN information
The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among other
things, an identifier indicating product approval and the Ringer Equivalence
Number (REN). This information must be provided to your local telephone
company upon request. For equipment approved prior to July 23, 2001, the
product identifier is preceded by the phrase “FCC Reg No.” and the REN is
listed separately. For equipment approved after that date, the product identifier is preceded by “US” and a colon (:), and the REN is encoded in the product identifier without a decimal point as the sixth and seventh characters following the colon. For example, the product identifier US: AAAEQ03T123XYZ
would indicate a REN of 0.3.
The REN is used to determine how many devices you may connect to your
telephone line and still have them ring when you are called. In most, but not
all areas, the sum of all RENs should be five (5.0) or less. You may want to
contact your local telephone company for more information.
2. Connection and use with the nationwide telephone network
The plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and
the telephone network must comply with the applicable Part 68 rules and
technical requirements adopted by 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. An RJ11 jack should normally be used for connecting to a single line and an RJ14 jack for two lines.
See Installation Instructions in the user’s manual. This equipment may not
be used with Coin Telephone Lines or with Party Lines. If you have specially
wired alarm dialing equipment connected to your telephone line, ensure the
connection of this equipment does not disable your alarm equipment. If you
have questions about what will disable the alarm equipment, consult your
telephone company or qualified installer.
3. Repair instructions
If this equipment is malfunctioning, it must be unplugged from the modular
jack until the problem has been corrected. Repairs to this telephone equipment can only be made by the manufacturer or its authorized agents. For repair procedures, follow the instructions outlined under the Limited Warranty.
3
4. Rights of the telephone company
If this equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone
company may temporarily discontinue your telephone service. The telephone
company is required to notify you before interrupting service. If advance
notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will be
given the opportunity to correct the problem and the telephone company is
required to inform you of your right to file a complaint with the FCC. Your
telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operation,
or procedures that could affect the proper functioning of this product. The
telephone company is required to notify you if such changes are planned.
5. Hearing aid compatibility
If this product is equipped with a corded or cordless handset, it is hearing aid
compatible.
6. Programming/testing of emergency numbers
If this product has memory dialing locations, you may choose to store police,
fire department and emergency medical service telephone numbers in these
locations. If you do, please keep three things in mind:
a. We recommend that you also write the telephone number on the directory
card (if applicable), so that you can still dial the emergency number manually
if the memory dialing feature doesn’t work.
b. This feature is provided only as a convenience, and the manufacturer as-
sumes no responsibility for customer reliance upon the memory feature.
c. Testing the emergency telephone numbers you have stored is not recom-
mended. However, if you do make a call to an emergency number:
• You must remain on the line and briefly explain the reason for the call
before hanging up.
• Programming/testing of emergency numbers should be performed during
off-peak hours, such as in the early morning or late evening, when the
emergency services tend to be less busy.
Interference Information:
Part 15 of FCC Rules
Some telephone equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency
energy and, if not installed and used properly, may cause interference to radio
and television reception.
This product has been tested and found to meet the standards for a Class B
digital device, as specified in Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These specifications
are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a
residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation.
If this product causes interference to radio, VCR or television reception when
it is in use, you might correct the interference with any one or all of these
4
measures:
— Where it can be done safely, re-orient the receiving radio, VCR or television
antenna.
— To the extent possible, relocate the radio, VCR, television or other receiver
with respect to the telephone equipment.
— If this telephone product runs on AC power, plug your product into an AC
outlet that’s not on the same circuit as one used by your radio, VCR or
television.
Modifications to this product, not expressly approved by the manufacturer, could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN
This product meets the applicable Industry Canada technical specications.
About Caller Identication (Caller ID)
This product has a caller ID with call waiting feature which works with service
available from your local telephone service provider.
Caller ID with call waiting lets you see the name of the caller before answering
the telephone, even when you are on another call.
You may need to change your telephone service plan to enjoy this feature. Contact your telephone service provider if:
• You have both caller ID and call waiting, but as separate services (you may
need combined service)
• You have only caller ID service, or only call waiting service, but not both.
• You currently do not subscribe to any caller ID or call waiting service.
This product can be used with regular caller ID service, or with no caller ID
service. Caller ID services are subscription services and may not be available
in all areas. Depending on your service, you may see the caller’s number, or the
caller’s name and number. This product can provide information only if both
you and the caller are in areas offering caller ID service, and if both telephone
companies use compatible equipment. The time and date are sent by the service
provider along with the call information.
About Home Area Code and Local Area Codes
Always program your home area code, and if necessary, up to four local area
codes can be programmed (see Set Home Area Code and Set Local Area
Codes on pages 19-20). Programming these area codes changes how numbers
are displayed in the call log and allows for correct operation of the display dial
feature.
The chart below shows whether it is necessary to program the local area codes
after installing your telephone.
