FCC INFORMATION
We have designed your system to conform to federal

lines. However, each system (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

If you use more than one telephone or other device

In the unlikely event that your system causes problems on the phone line, the phone company can temporarily disconnect 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 system. 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 complies with the limits for a Class B
digital device as specified in Part 15 of
FCC Rules
These limits provide reasonable protection against radio and TV interference in a residential area. However,
your equipment might cause TV or radio interference
even when it is operating properly. To eliminate interference, you can try one or more of the following corrective measures:
• Reorient or relocate the TV or radio’s receiving
antenna.

PREPARATION
INSTALLING BATTERIES
Your System 931 requires four AAA batteries (not supplied) for power. For the longest operation and best
performance, we recommend alkaline batteries, available at your local RadioShack store.
Cautions:
• Always use fresh batteries of the required size
and recommended type.
• Do not mix old and new batteries, different types
of batteries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable),
or rechargeable batteries of different capacities.
Follow these steps to install batteries.
Notes:
• When you replace the batteries, do not press any
button on the system after you remove the old
batteries. Doing so could erase all stored information.
