discontinuance; (2) afford you the opportunity to correct the situation;
and (3) inform you of your right to bring a complaint to the

Interference Information

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. Privacy of

communications may not be ensured when using this phone.

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:

s Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna (that is, the antenna for

radio or television that is “receiving” the interference).

s Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the

telecommunications equipment and receiving antenna.

s Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a circuit

different from that to which the receiving antenna is connected.

If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult your
dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional
suggestions. Also, the Federal Communications Commission has prepared a
helpful booklet, “How To Identify and Resolve Radio/TV Interference
Problems.” This booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing
Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Please specify stock number

Connections & Setup

Installation

Digital Security System

Your cordless phone uses a digital security system to protect against false
ringing, unauthorized access, and charges to your phone line.

INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that
may cause or receive interference with nearby TVs, microwave ovens, and
VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless
telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV, microwave ovens,
or VCR. If such interference continues, move the cordless telephone farther
away from these appliances.

Certain other communications devices may also use the 1.9 GHz frequency
for communication, and, if not properly set, these devices may interfere
with each other and/or your new telephone. If you are concerned with
interference, please refer to the owner’s manual for these devices on how to
properly set channels to avoid interference. Typical devices that may use the

1.9 GHz frequency for communication include wireless audio/video senders,
wireless computer networks, multi-handset cordless telephone systems, and
some long-range cordless telephone systems.

Important Installation Guidelines

• Avoid sources of noise and heat, such as motors, fluorescent lighting,
microwave ovens, heating appliances and direct sunlight.

• Avoid areas of excessive dust, moisture and low temperature.

• Avoid other cordless telephones or personal computers.

• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is
specifically designed for wet locations.

•

Never touch non-insulated telephone wires or terminals, unless the

telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.

• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
