The page button serves two
purposes. First, a short press
enables the remote unit to
emit two long loud beeps.
This allows someone to page
you from the base unit.
Second, a long press of
at least three seconds will
enable the remote to emit a
continuous ring alert. The ring
is deactivated by pressing
the talk button on the remote.
This is helpful if you misplaced the remote.

FCC
REGISTRATION
FCC Requirements—Part 15
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. 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 radio or television
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct interference by one or more of the
following measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.
3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on
another circuit.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced
radio/TV technician for help.
RF Exposure Information
This device and its antenna must not be colocated or operated in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter. To comply with
FCC RF exposure requirements, only use
supplied antenna. Any unauthorized
modification to the antenna or device could
void the user’s authority to operate this device.
FCC Requirements—Part 68
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the
FCC rules and the requirements adopted by
ACTA. On the exterior of this equipment is a
label that contains a product identifier in the
format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this
information must be provided to your
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 ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and
modular plug is provided with this product. It
is designed to be connected to a compatible
jack that is also compliant. See installation
instructions for details.
The REN is useful to determine the quantity of
devices you may connect to your telephone
line. Excessive RENs on a 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 RENs 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, contact your local telephone
company. For product approved after July 23,
2001, the REN for this product is part of the
product identifier that has the format
US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented
by ### are the REN without the decimal
point. (For example, 03 represents a REN
of 0.3.) For earlier producers, the REN is
separately shown on the label.
If this telephone equipment causes harm to
the telephone network, the telephone
company will notify you in advance that
temporary discontinuance of service may be
required. But if advance notice isn’t practical,
the telephone company will notify the
customer as soon as possible. Also, you will
be advised of your right to file a complaint
with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make changes
in its facilities, equipment, operations, or
procedures that could affect the proper
functioning of your equipment. If they do, you
will be notified in advance in order for you to
make necessary modifications to maintain
uninterrupted service.
If trouble is experienced with this unit, for
repair or warranty information, please
contact customer service at (800) 544-
4660. If the equipment is causing harm to
the network, the telephone company may
request that you disconnect the equipment
until the problem is resolved.
DO NOT DISASSEMLE THIS EQUIPMENT:
it does not contain any user serviceable
components.
We recommend the installation of an AC
surge arrester in the AC outlet to which this
equipment is connected. Telephone
companies report that electrical surges,
typically lighting transients, are very
destructive to customer terminal equipment
connected to AC power sources.
