GENERAL FCC REQUIREMENTS
PAGE
36 USER INSTRUCTIONS
1.This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. On the bottom of this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC registration number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. If requested, provide this information to your telephone company.
2.The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices you may connect to your telephone line and still have all of those devices ring when your number is called. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices you may connect to your line, as determined by the REN, you should call your local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area.
3.If your answering machine causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance. But if advance notice isn't practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
4.Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the proper operation of your equipment. If they do, you will be given advance notice so as to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.
5.If there is a problem with this unit, the telephone company may ask you to disconnect this equipment from the network until the problem has been corrected or you are sure that the equipment is not malfunctioning.
6.Repairs can only be made by the manufacturer or an authorized service agency. Unauthorized repairs void registration and warranty. Contact seller or manufacturer for details of permissible userperformed routine repairs, and where and how to have other than routine repairs made.
7.This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company. Connection to party lines is subject to state tariffs. (Contact your state public utility commission or corporation commission for information.)

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
λReorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
λIncrease the separation between the equipment and receiver.
λConnect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
λConsult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs; to minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR; and, if interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.
Any changes made by the user not approved by CASIO PHONEMATE can void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
TROUBLESHOOTING

Recorded messages are cut off.
The TC-540 is designed to disconnect from the line after a caller stops talking. Calls may be cut off if a four second pause is detected, if the caller does not speak loud enough, or if the message is less than four seconds.
The TC-540 does not respond when you enter your remote access code during the outgoing message.
Try re-entering the correct code after the beep.
Between messages there is an operator recording or a beep and dial tone.
The caller has hung up without leaving a message. A shorter outgoing message will reduce the frequency of these recordings.
You have more than one telephone number and are experiencing difficulty.
See Multi-Line Installation, page 32.
There is no sound during playback.
Check and adjust the volume control.
“Lb” flashes in the display or LO BATT on the handset lights.
"Lb" or the LO BATT INDICATOR on the handset alerts you to install or replace the 9V battery used for battery backup.
The unit does not automatically stop playing the outgoing message or recording a message when an extension phone is picked up.
Briefly press and release the hook-switch on the extension phone.
After several attempts the TC-540 will not operate properly.
To reset the TC-540, unplug the AC ADAPTER PLUG from the back of the TC-540 for 10 seconds and remove the battery (if one is installed). The outgoing and incoming messages, time/day stamp and remote code will be lost. Re-record the outgoing messages, set the time and day, and the remote code.
If this action does not fix the problem, call the CASIO PHONEMATE Helpline. CASIO PHONEMATE’S helpline staff can often resolve problems or recommend repair service when needed.
Unless you live close to a CASIO PHONEMATE Service Center, you may be required to mail a product to CASIO PHONEMATE for repair. To mail the product to the service center you should:
1.Package the unit in its original box or a comparable package.
2.Include a clear and specific explanation of the problem.
3.Include your name, address, and phone number.
4.Provide a legible photocopy of the dated store receipt for warranty purposes.

INSTALLING A 9V
BATTERY
To protect your messages and programmed information during a power failure or to replace the battery when “Lb” appears in the display:
1Turn the TC-540 over and remove the battery cover.
2Install a 9V alkaline battery. Make sure the battery is connected correctly.
3Replace the cover. The battery connection will not be activated until the cover is replaced.
TWO-LINE
INSTALLATION
Two-line installations may require a two-line T-Adapter for your machine to operate correctly. The T-Adapter allows you to connect your machine to Line 1 or Line 2. The TC-540 will only answer one line.
MULTI-LINE
INSTALLATION
Installations with more than two lines, such as a business phone system, may require a separate RJ11 jack for answering machines. Please contact your telephone equipment provider for additional information.
You can use the TC-540 as an extension phone on a business phone system, but some systems will require that you install an A+A1 Adapter to light the in-use indicator on the receptionist’s console. See the accessory order form on the last page of this owner’s guide to order an A+A1 Adapter.
