This product was designed and manufactured to meet strict quality and safety standards.
There are, however, some installation and operation precautions which you should be particularly aware of.
1. Read Instructions - All the safety and operating instructions should be read and understood
before the appliance is operated.
2. Retain Instructions - The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future
reference.
3. Heed Warnings - All warnings on the appliance and in the operating instructions should be
adhered to.
4. Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be followed.
5. Water and Moisture - The appliance should not be used near water - for example, near a

etc.
6. Carts and Stands - The appliance should be used only with a cart or stand that is recom-

excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to
overturn.
7. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as
recommended by the manufacturer.
8. Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or position does not
interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, the appliance should not be situated on a

built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through
the ventilation openings.
9. Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
10. Power Cord Protection - Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely
to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords and plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
appliance.
11. Non-use Periods - The power cord of the appliance should be unplugged from the outlet
when left unused for a long period of time.
12. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are
not spilled into the enclosure through openings.
13. Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be serviced by qualified service personnel
when:
A. The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the appliance; or
C. The appliance has been exposed to rain; or
D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in
performance; or
E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.
14. Servicing - The user should not attempt to service the appliance beyond that described in
the operating instructions. All other servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.

Safety Instructions

This symbol is to alert you to important operating or servicing instructions that may
appear in your owner’s manual. When using your telephone equipment, always follow
these basic safety precautions in order to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and
injury to persons.
15. Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or
aerosol cleaners; use a damp cloth for cleaning. If the product comes in contact with any
liquid, unplug the phone line and the power adapter and let the unit dry thoroughly before
plugging it back in.
16. This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the
marking label or in the owner’s manual. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to
your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
17. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords, as this can result in the risk of fire or
electric shock.
18. Never push objects of any kind into this product through cabinet slots, as they may touch
dangerous voltage points or short out parts, resulting in the risk of fire or electric shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
19. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this product, but take it to a qualified serviceman when service or repair work is required. Opening or removing covers may
expose you to dangerous voltage or other risks. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric
shock when this product is subsequently used.
20. Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel
under the following conditions: a) when the power supply cord or plug is damaged or
frayed; b) if liquid has spilled into the product; c) if the product has been exposed to rain
or water; d) if the product does not operate normally when you follow the operating
instructions (adjust only those controls that are discussed in the owner’s manual, as
improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage, often requiring extensive
work by a qualified technician to restore the product to normal performance); e) if the
product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged; f) if the product exhibits a
distinct change in performance.
21. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may
be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
22. Do not use a telephone in the vicinity of a gas leak. If you suspect a gas leak, report it
immediately, but use a telephone away from the area where gas is leaking. With a cordless
phone, also make sure that the phone base is away from the gas leak.
23. Grounding or Polarization - This product may be equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the
power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully
into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact your electrician to
replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. On the back panel of this equipment is
a label that contains, among other information, the FCC Registration Number and Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. You must, upon request, provide this information to your telephone company. 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 RENs of all devices
connected to one line should not exceed five. 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.
If your telephone equipment 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 is not practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will be
informed of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or proce-
dures that could affect the proper functioning of your equipment. If they do, you will be
notified in advance to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted telephone service.
If you experience trouble with this telephone equipment, please contact Philips Consumer
Electronics repair facility at Philips Service Solutions Group, P.O. Box 555, Old Andrew
Johnson Highway, Jefferson City, TN 37760, for more information on obtaining service or
repairs. The telephone company may ask that you disconnect this equipment from the network until the problem has been corrected or until you are sure that the equipment is not
malfunctioning.
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company.
Connection to party lines is subject to state tariffs.
This device is equipped with an RJ11 connector.
CAUTION: Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by Philips
Consumer Electronics could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.

The Canadian Department of Communications label identifies certified equipment. This certifi-
cation means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective,
operational, and safety requirements. The department does not guarantee the equipment
will operate to the user’s satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to
the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must be installed
using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the company’s inside wiring associated with a single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance
with the above condition may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to some certified equipment should be made by an authorized maintenance facility des-
ignated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or
any equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request
the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the ground connections of the power utility,
telephone lines, and internal metallic water pipe system are connected together. This precaution may be important particularly in rural areas.
CAUTION: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves but should con-
tact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or electrician as appropriate.
The RINGER EQUIVALENCE NUMBER (REN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the
percentage of the total load to be connected to a telephone loop which is used by the
device to prevent overloading. The termination on a loop may consist of any combination
of devices subject only to the requirement that the total of the REN of all devices does not
exceed five.
The REN for the MAT972 is .2A.

The FCC Class B limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interfer-
ence 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:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
• Consult your point of purchase or service representative for additional suggestions.
The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or television interference caused by the use
of cables other than those recommended or by unauthorized changes or modifications to
this equipment. Unauthorized changes or modifications could void the user’s authority to
operate this equipment.

You probably already have your TV connected to other devices, such as a
VCR or a Cable Box. You may need to disconnect some cables before you
connect the TV to your Internet Terminal. The Internet Terminal must be the
device that is connected directly to your TV.
You may use the cables that came with your VCR, Cable Box, or Satellite Box
when connecting the Internet Terminal to these devices. Some connections
may require additional cables or adapters.
If you connect other equipment to the Internet Terminal, make sure all equipment is set to the same channel. For example, if the Cable Box is on channel
3, all equipment should be set to channel 3.
Before you can connect to the WebTV Network, you must connect your
Internet Terminal to each of the following:
❐ a Cable TV or antenna signal,
❐ your television,
❐ a telephone line,
❐ and an AC power outlet.
The type of connection you choose depends on whether your TV:
❐ has an S-Video jack, Audio/Video jacks, or an RF coaxial (combined
UHF/VHF) Antenna In jack,
❐ is connected to a VCR,
❐ or is connected to a Cable Box/Satellite Box.
Remember: Objects placed on top of the Internet Terminal could hinder the
flow of air through the ventilation openings. Do not place anything on top
of the Internet Terminal.
Before You Begin
After you complete these connections, you will subscribe to the WebTV
Network, which has a monthly subscription fee. WebTV Network service is
not available as a local call everywhere. Toll charges may apply. To see if you
have local access, please call 1-800-GO-WEBTV (469-3288). (Service and support fees may apply for accessing WebTV Network customer support.)
