FCC STATEMENT
Your auto dialer complies with Part 68 of
FCC Rules
. You must, upon request, provide
the FCC registration number and the REN to
your telephone company.
Note:
You must not connect your auto dialer
to:
• coin-operated systems
• party-line systems
• most electronic key telephone systems
We have designed your auto dialer to con-
form to federal regulations, and you can con-
nect it to most telephone lines. However,
each auto dialer (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 pow-
er draw as the device's ringer equivalence
number, or REN, located on the bottom of
your auto dialer. This dialer has a REN of 0,
so it places no load on the phone line.
If you use more than one phone or other de-
vice on the line, add up all of the RENs. If the
total is more than five (three in rural areas),
your telephones might not ring. If ringer oper-
ation is impaired, remove a device from the
line.
In the unlikely event that your phone causes
problems on the phone line, the phone com-
pany can temporarily discontinue your ser-
vice. 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 proce-
dures that could affect the operation of this
telephone. The telephone company notifies
you of these changes in advance, so you can
take the necessary steps to prevent interrup-
tion of your telephone service.
Lightning
Your telephone has built-in protection circuits
to reduce the risk of damage from surges in
telephone line and power line current. These
protection circuits meet or exceed the FCC
requirements. However, lightning striking the
telephone or power lines can damage your
telephone.
Lightning damage is not common. Neverthe-
less, if you live in an area that has severe
electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug
your phone when storms approach to reduce
the possibility of damage.
