unit not expressly approved by Gigaset Commu­nications USA LLC could void the FCC authority to operate the equipment. This includes the addition of any external antenna device. This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the bottom of the base station is a label that contains, among other information, a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be provided to the 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.
The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a 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 su m of REN s shoul d not exceed five (5. 0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company. For products 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 a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on the label. A copy of the supplier's Declaration of Conform­ity (SDoC) is available at this Internet address: www.gigaset.com/docs.
If this 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 operation of the equipment. If this happens the telephone com­pany will provide advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications to main-

If the equip­ment is causing harm to the telephone net­work, the telephone company may request that you disconnect the equipment until the prob­lem is resolved. This equipment is of a type that is not intended to be repaired by the Customer (user).
This telephone system may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company. Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission, public service commission or cor­poration commission for information. Privacy of communications may not be ensured when using this phone. If your home has specially wired alarm equip­ment connected to the telephone line, ensure the installation of this equipment does not dis­able your alarm equipment. If you have ques­tions about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.
This telephone system equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class B digital device, pursuant to 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. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interfer­ence in a residential installation. Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TV’s and VCR’s; to minimize or prevent such interference, the system base should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR; and, if interference is expe­rienced, moving the base farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.
However, there is no guarantee that interfer­ence will not occur in a particular installation. If this telephone system does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the system off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the base station and receiver.
3. Connect the base station into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio TV technician for help.
Notice for Direct Inward Dialing ("DID")
ALLOWING THIS EQUIPMENT TO BE OPERATED IN SUCH A MANNER AS TO NOT PROVIDE FOR PROPER ANSWER SUPERVISION IS A VIOLATION OF PART 68 OF THE FCC‘S RULES.
Notice to Hearing Aid Wearers:
This phone system is compatible with induc­tively coupled hearing aids.
Power Outage:
In the event of a power outage, your cordless telephone will not operate. The cordless tele­phone requires electricity for operation. You should have a telephone that does not require electricity available for use during power out­ages.
Notice:
The installation of the base unit should allow at least 8 inches between the base and persons to be in compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
For body worn operation, the portable part (handset) has been tested and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines. Use with an accessory that contains metal parts may not ensure com­pliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Notice to telephone company service: If you need service from your telephone com­pany, please provide them with the information
– Facility interface Code (FIC) – Service Order Code (SOC) – Universal Service Order Code (USOC) as indicated on the label on the bottom side of
the base station.
