THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING
THIS TELEPHONE
We want you to know all about your new
telephone, how to install it, the features it
provides, and the services you can expect
from its use. We have included this information in your Owner’s Instruction Manual.
PLEASE READ BEFORE INSTALLING
AND USING YOUR NEW TELEPHONE.
BEFORE USING YOUR TELEPHONE
This telephone includes a Handset with Receiver Volume Control
that complies with FCC Part 68 requirements mandated by the
Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1988.
The Volume Control is a small rotary knob that protrudes from the
inside of the Handset handle. The rotary knob may be
conveniently operated with the thumb, index, or middle finger
while holding the handset.
Rotating the knob toward the Receiver (upper) end of the Handset
will increase the loudness from the Receiver.
Rotating the knob toward the Microphone (lower) end of the
Handset will decrease the loudness from the Receiver.
The Volume Control will not disable the Receiver. The minimum
loudness setting of the Volume control will usually produce a
comfortable listening level for persons with no hearing
impairment.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW
DESIGN COMPLIANCE Your telephone is designed to comply
with FCC Rules and Regulations, Part 68. It can be connected to
the telephone network as FCC-registered terminal equipment.
The registration number is printed on the label on the bottom of
your telephone.
NOTIFICATION TO THE TELEPHONE COMPANY As a
customer of the local telephone company, you must, if they ask,
tell them before connecting your telephone to the telephone
company lines. The telephone company may need the FCC
registration number and the ringer equivalence of the telephone.
This information is printed on a label on the bottom of your
telephone.
RINGER EQUIVALENCE The ringer equivalence indicates the
amount of power that your telephone draws from the telephone
company line during ringing. The number is printed on the label
on the bottom of your telephone.
If you have more than one telephone (or other terminal device)
connected to the telephone company line, you should total the
ringer equivalence numbers (REN’s), and be sure that the total
is not more than five. Your telephones may not ring if the total is
more than five. Also, in some rural locations, your telephone may
not ring if the REN total is more than three.
RESTRICTIONS You must not connect your telephone to coinoperated lines or party lines.
INTERFERENCE POTENTIAL Your telephone has a push-button
dial that generates radio frequency energy. If not properly used,
it may interfere with radio and television reception. If the telephone does cause interference with reception, move the radio
or television to another electrical circuit or another location. If
necessary, you may need to seek advice from an experienced
technician.
INSTALLATION This model telephone must be connected to the
telephone company lines through a modular jack. The required
USOC for the modular jack is RJ11C for desk mounting and RJ11W
for wall mounting. The USOC number is printed on the label on the
bottom of your telephone.
TYPE OF DIALING Your telephone has a push-button TONE dial.
You must have TONE service from your telephone company to
use your telephone for dialing. Note that you will usually be
charged extra for TONE service.
HEARING-AID COMPATIBILITY The handset on your telephone
will work with magnetically-coupled hearing aids. You can use
a hearing aid equipped with a T (Telephone) switch.
IN CASE OF TROUBLE If your telephone should cause
problems on the telephone line, the telephone company can
temporarily disconnect your service. The telephone company
must then notify and allow you to correct the problem.
The telephone company may from time to time change its lines or
equipment. They must notify you if planned changes will affect
your telephone service, to allow you to take steps to prevent
interruptions.
