FCC and Phone Company Information

Your telephone company is required by the Federal Communications Commission to allow you to connect FCC registered telephones to their lines. The FCC requires you to provide information, if requested by the local telephone company, about the connection of an FCC registered telephone to their lines. They may ask you for the FCC registration number and the ringer equivalence number (REN); both are at the bottom of the base. They may also ask for the Universal Service Order Code (USOC), which is the RJ-11C. The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices which may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive REN’s on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the REN’s should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to the line, as determined by the total REN’s, contact the telephone company to determine the maximum REN for the calling area. Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may harm the telephone network, the telephone company shall, where practical, notify you that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. Where prior notice is not practicable and the circumstances warrant such action, the telephone company may temporarily discontinue service immediately. In case of such temporary discontinuance, the telephone company must: (1) promptly notify you of such temporary discontinuance; (2) afford you the opportunity to correct the situation; (3) inform you of your right to bring a complaint to the Commission pursuant to procedures set forth in of Part 68 of FCC Rules and Regulations. The telephone company may make changes in its communication facilities, equipment operations or procedures where such action is required in the operation of its business and not consistent with FCC Rules and Regulations. If these changes are expected to affect the use of performance of your telephone equipment, the telephone company must give you adequate notice in writing, to allow you to maintain uninterrupted service. This equipment cannot be used on telephone company provided coin service. Connection to Party Line Service is subject to state tariffs. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by (state party responsible for compliance) can void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED)

Remove the battery cover located on the rear of the handset by sliding it downward.

If replacing an old battery pack, unplug the battery connector and remove it by carefully using a small flat head screwdriver to pry it out from the battery compartment.

Plug the new battery into the rechargeable battery plug and insert the rechargeable battery into the battery compartment. Make sure cable connector is inserted into the slot correctly and securely.

Put the battery cover back on by sliding it upward until it clicks in place.

Installation of the Rechargeable Battery

Charging the Rechargeable Battery

It is recommended that the rechargeable battery be fully charged overnight prior to initial use. The handset’s rechargeable battery will be charged when it’s on the base’s charge contacts; the Base LED indicator will light.

The battery low indicator will light in the display and a beep will be heard when using the handset and the battery power is low and needs recharging.

NOTES:

• If the battery does not appear to be charging please insure the cable connector

of the battery is inserted correctly and securely. The display will still read “Charging” and the base LED will light up as long as the contacts of the phone and base are touching even if the battery is not properly connected so this does not insure proper charging.

• Every few months, or when charging becomes abnormal, clean the contacts of

the handset and the base with a standard pencil eraser.
