This equipment 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.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply within the

Rules. These limits provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy. If not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, the equipment might cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation.

vi SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS & WARRANTY
FCC PART 68 INFORMATION
This telephone is hearing aid compatible.
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. The FCC
Part 68 label is located on the bottom of the product. This label
contains the product’s FCC Registration Number and Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN). You must give this information to
your telephone company if they request it from you.
Only use standard modular telephone jacks to connect to the
telephone network. The appropriate outlet or jack is a USOC
RJ11C or RJ11W, which complies with FCC Part 68 Rules.
The REN is useful when trying to determine the maximum
number of devices you can connect to your telephone line and still
have those devices ring when 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 of the number of devices you
can connect to your line, as determined by the REN, contact your
local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for
your calling area.
If this device causes harm to the telephone network, the
telephone company will give you advance notice if temporary
discontinuance of service is required. But if advance notice isn’t
practical, the telephone company will notify you 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, operation, or procedures that could affect the proper
functioning of your equipment. If they do, you will receive
advanced notice in order for you to make necessary changes to
maintain uninterrupted service.
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the
telephone company. Connection to party lines is subject to state
tariffs.
Repairs to this equipment can only be made by the manufacturer
and its authorized agents. If it appears that this device is causing
harm to the telephone network, the telephone company might
request that the device be unplugged until the problem is fixed.
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE THIS EQUIPMENT.

D933 - 900MHz Cordless
3 INSTALLING THE D933
CHOOSE ALOCATION FOR THE BASE UNIT
The base should be away from all other electronic equipment
such as a personal computer, microwave, stereo, or
television. It is also a good idea to place the unit away from
noisy areas, or from heat sources such as a radiator or
direct sunlight.
PLUG IN THE ADAPTER
a. Plug the AC adapter tip into the DC 9V jack on
the base and the other end into an electrical
outlet. Be sure that the tip is securely
plugged into the jack. Without AC power your
phone will not operate.
CAUTION
You must use a Class 2 power adapter that supplies
9 Volts DC and delivers at least 500mA. Its center
tip must be set to positive and its plug must fit the
phone’s DC 9V jack. The supplied adapter meets
these specifications. Using an adapter that does not
meet these specifications could damage the phone
or the adapter.
b. Thread the cord through the clip on the
housing to prevent the cord from pulling
loose. Be sure that the wall outlet is not
controlled by a light switch.
