WARRANTY/SERVICE

Additional Information

SERVICE REQUIREMENTS

If the cordless telephone should malfunction, or need changes or modifications, all repairs will be performed by an authorized Toshiba Service Station. This unit has been registered with the FCC for direct connection to the telephone network. Under the FCC program, no customer is authorized to repair this unit. This applies to units either in or out of warranty. If an unauthorized repair is performed, the registration of the unit for direct connection to the network will be null and void. If the unit is still in warranty, the remainder of the warranty period will also be null and void.

It is the responsibility of users requiring service to report the need for service to the Toshiba dealer.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS TO USERS

Your telephone equipment has been designed and constructed to conform to federal regulations and can be connected to the phone line as described in this manual.

Please note that each product connected to the telephone line places a certain load on the line. We designate this as the unit’s “Ringer Equivalence Number.”

It is most unlikely, but...If your telephone equipment should cause problems on the phone line, the phone company has the right to temporarily discontinue your service. If this happens, the phone company will notify you and give you the opportunity to correct the problem. Also, you need to know that the phone company does have the right to make changes in their lines and/or equipment.

If these changes might affect your telephone equipment (or require changes in the telephone equipment or its connection), the phone company will notify you in writing, so you have the chance to take whatever action necessary to ensure uninterrupted phone service.

FCC REQUIREMENTS

You are no longer required by the FCC to notify your local telephone company of your intent to connect a new telephone. Your local telephone company may call you and request information about your phone such as: the brand name, model number, registration number, and ringer equivalence number. This information is provided on a label located at the bottom of the base unit and handset.

You may not directly connect your telephone equipment to coin telephone services. Check with your local telephone company if you wish to connect your telephone equipment to a party line service. Some party line services require a special adaptor or modification to your telephone.

It should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TVs 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 or VCR; and, if interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.
