INFORMATION
FCC REGISTRATION
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the
FCC rules. On the bottom of this equipment is
a label that contains, among other information,
the FCC Registration Number and Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN) for this equip-
ment. You must, upon request, provide this
information to your telephone company.
The REN is useful to determine the quantity of
devices you may connect to your telephone
line and still have all of those devices ring
when your telephone number is called. In
most, but not all areas, the sum of the
RENs
of all devices connected to one line should not
exceed five (5.0). To be certain on the number
of devices you may connect to your line, as
determined by the REN, you should contact
your local telephone company to determine
the maximum REN for your calling area.
If your telephone equipment causes harm to
the telephone network, the telephone
company may discontinue your service
temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in
advance, But if advance notice isn’t practical,
you will be notified as soon as possible. You
will be informed of your right to file a complaint
with the FCC.
Your telephone company may make changes
in its facilities, equipment, operations or
procedures that could affect the proper
functioning of your equipment. If they do, you
will be notified in advance to give you an
opportunity to maintain uninterrupted
telephone service.
If you experience trouble with this telephone
equipment, please contact your Versa-Link
dealer or Multi-Link, Inc. for information on
obtaining service or repairs. The telephone
company may ask that you disconnect this
equipment from the network until the problem
has been corrected or until you are sure that
the equipment is not malfunctioning.
This equipment may not be used on coin
service provided by the telephone company,
and is not intended for use with party line
service. This equipment is intended for use
only on loop-start service, and will not
operate on a ground-start central office line.
DOC REGISTRATION
The Department of Communications label
identifies certified equipment. This certifica-
tion means that the equipment meets certain
telecommunications network protective,
operational and safety requirements. The
Department does not guarantee the equip-
ment will operate to the user’s satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users
should ensure that it is permissible to be
connected to the facilities of the local
telecommunications company. The equip-
ment must also be installed using an
accepted method of connection. In some
cases, the company’s inside wiring associ-
ated with a single line individual service may
be extended by means of a certified connec-
tor assembly (telephone extension cord). The
customer should be aware that compliance
with the above conditions may not prevent
degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be
made by an authorized Canadian mainte-
nance facility designated by the supplier. Any
repairs or alterations made by the user to this
equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may
give the telecommunications company cause
to request the user to disconnect the
equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection
that the electrical ground connections of the
power utility, telephone lines and internal
metallic water pipe system, if present, are
connected together. This precaution may be
particularly important in rural areas.
