IMPORTANT TELEPHONE COMPANY & FCC INFORMATION

CAUTION : TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK

AND PERSONAL INJURY, DO NOT OPEN CABINET.

WE SUGGEST THAT YOU REVIEW THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE FCC (FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION).

FCC REGISTRATION

This telephone set is registered with the FCC based upon compliance with Part 68 of its rules. Connection of this telephone to the nationwide telecommunications network must be through a standard network jack (RJ11W or RJ11C) which you can order from your telephone company, if not already installed.

NOTE : FCC registration does not constitute an expressed or implied guarantee of performance. Only

the Lenoxx warranty in this booklet covers the performance of this telephone set.

IMPORTANT FCC INFORMATION

In the event that terminal equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company should notify the customer, if possible, that service may be stopped. However, where prior notice is impractical, the company may temporarily cease service providing that they:

1. Promptly notify the customer.

2. Give the customer an opportunity to correct the problem with their equipment.

3. Inform the customer of the right to bring a complaint to the Federal Communications Commission pursuant to procedures set out in FCC Rules and Regulations Subpart E of Part 68.

The telephone company may make changes in its communications facilities, equipment, operations or procedures, where such action is reasonably required in the operation of its business and is not inconsistent with the rules and regulations in FCC Part 68. If such changes can be reasonably expected to render any customer terminal equipment incompatible, the customer shall be given adequate notice in writing, to allow the customer an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.

RINGER EQUIVALENCE NO. (REN)

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 telephone number is called. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line 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 contact your local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area.

NOTE : This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. 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, try the following:

1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for assistance.

GENERAL

The FCC prohibits customer-provided terminal equipment to be connected to party lines or to be used in conjunction with coin telephone service. This phone is hearing aid compatible.
