( or ) to find
Your phone is hearing aid compatible. Your telephone complies with Part 68 of FCC Rules and the requirements adopted
by the ACTA. On the back of this product is a label with this product’s FCC Product Identification number in the format DYFMT08B433904. If requested, you must provide this information to the telephone company.
Note: You must not connect your telephone to:
•..coin-operated systems
•..most electronic key telephone systems
•..party-line systems
Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission, public service commission, or corporation commission for information.
We have designed your telephone to conform to federal regulations, and you can connect it to most telephone lines. However, each telephone (and each device, such as a telephone or answering machine) that you connect to the telephone line draws power from the telephone line. We refer to this power draw as the device’s ringer equivalence number, or REN. The REN for your telephone is the digits represented by #.#, without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3), in the Product Identification number found on the bottom of your telephone.
If you use more than one phone or other device on the line, add up all of the RENs. If the total is more than five (three in rural areas), your telephones might not ring. If ringer operation is impaired, remove a device from the line.
In the unlikely event that your phone causes problems on the phone line, the phone company can temporarily discontinue your service. If this happens, the phone company attempts to notify you in advance. If advance notice is not practical, the phone company notifies you as soon as possible and advises you of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
Also, the phone company can make changes to its lines, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of this telephone. The telephone company notifies you of these changes in advance, so you can take the necessary steps to prevent interruption of your telephone service.
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 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 local RadioShack store or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your
telephone.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by RadioShack may cause interference and void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
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. Consult your local RadioShack store or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your telephone. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by RadioShack may cause interference and void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Your telephone connects directly to a modular telephone line jack. If your telephone wiring does not have a modular jack, you can update the wiring yourself using jacks and adapters (available at your local RadioShack store), or have the telephone company update the wiring for you. You must use compatible modular jacks that are compliant with Part 68 of FCC Rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. The telephone cord and modular plug provided is Part 68
compliant for connecting to the telephone company network.
NOTE
If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, be sure that installing the telephone does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable your alarm equipment,
contact your telephone company or a qualified installer.
