1Safety information
1.1Equipment Approval
Information
Your telephone equipment is approved
for connection to the Public Switched
Telephone Network and is in compliance
with parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and
Regulations and the Technical
Requirements for Telephone Terminal
Equipment published by ACTA.
1.1.1 Notification to the Local
Telephone Company
On the bottom of this equipment is a
label indicating, among other information,
the US number and Ringer Equivalence
Number (REN) for the equipment. You
must, upon request, provide this
information to your telephone company.
The REN is useful in determining the
number of devices you may connect to
your telephone line and still have all of
these devices ring when your telephone
number is called. In most (but not all)
areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices
connected to one line should not exceed
5. 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.
A plug and jack used to connect this
equipment to the premises wiring and
telephone network must comply with the
applicable FCC Part 68 rules and
requirements adopted by the 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. See
installation instructions for details.
Notes
• This equipment may not be used on
coin service provided by the telephone
company.
• Party lines are subject to state tariffs,
and therefore, you may not be able to
use your own telephone equipment if
you are on a party line. Check with
your local telephone company.
• Notice must be given to the telephone
company upon permanent
disconnection of your telephone from
your line.
• If your home has specially wired alarm
equipment connected to the
telephone line, ensure the installation
of this product does not disable your
alarm equipment. If you have questions
about what will disable alarm
equipment, consult your telephone
company or a qualified installer.
US Number is located on the cabinet
bottom.
REN Number is located on the cabinet
bottom.
1.1.2 Rights of the Telephone
Company
Should your equipment cause trouble on
your line which may harm the telephone
network, the telephone company shall,
where practicable, notify you that
temporary discontinuance of service may
be required. Where prior notice is not
practicable and the circumstances
Safety information3
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; and (3) inform you of your right
to bring a complaint to the Commission
pursuant to procedures set forth in
Subpart E of Part 68, FCC Rules and
Regulations.
The telephone company may make
changes in its communications facilities,
equipment, operations or procedures
where such action is required in the
operation of its business and not
inconsistent with FCC Rules and
Regulations. If these changes are
expected to affect the use or
performance of your telephone
equipment, the telephone company must
give you adequate notice, in writing, to
allow you to maintain uninterrupted
service.
1.2Interference Information
This equipment generates and uses radio
frequency energy which may interfere
with residential radio and television
reception if not properly installed and
used in accordance with instructions
contained in this manual. Reasonable
protection against such interference is
ensured, although there is no guarantee
this will not occur in a given installation. If
interference is suspected and verified by
switching this equipment on and off, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the
following measures: Reorient the radio/
television receiver’s antenna, relocate
the equipment with respect to the
receiver, plug the equipment and receiver
into separate circuit outlets. The user
may also wish to consult a qualified radio/
television technician for additional
suggestions. This equipment has been
fully tested and complies with all limits for
Class B computing devices pursuant to
part 15 FCC Rules and Regulations. This
device complies with RSS-210 of Industry
Canada. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device
may not cause interference, and (2) This
device must accept any interference,
including interference that may cause
undesired operation of the device.
This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful
interference; and (2) This device must
accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
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.
4Safety information
However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular
installation.
Privacy of Communications may not be
ensured when using this product.
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:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna (that is, the antenna for radio
or television that is “receiving” the
interference).
• Reorient or relocate and increase the
separation between the
telecommunications equipment and
receiving antenna.
• Connect the telecommunications
equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the
receiving antenna is connected.
If these measures do not eliminate the
interference, please consult your dealer
or an experienced radio/television
technician for additional suggestions.
Also, the Federal Communications
Commission has prepared a helpful
booklet, “How To Identify and Resolve
Radio/TV Interference Problems.” This
booklet is available from the U.S.
Government Printing Office, Washington,
D.C. 20402. Please specify stock number
004-000-00345-4 when ordering copies.
Notice: The changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the
user's authority to operate the
equipment.

The base station does not have an ON/OFF
power switch. Power is applied when the
power adaptor is plugged into the unit and
connected to the electricity socket. The
only way to power down the unit is to
unplug the power adaptor from the
electricity socket. Therefore, ensure that
the electricity socket is easily accessible.
The power adaptor and telephone line cord
have to be connected correctly, as incorrect
connection could damage the unit.
Always use the telephone line cord
supplied with the unit. Otherwise, you
may not get a dial tone.
