Use & Care Guide

Your GE telephone equipment is registered with the
Federal Communications Commission and is in
compliance with parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and
Regulations.
1Notification to the Local Telephone
Company
On the bottom of this equipment is a label
indicating, among other information, the FCC
Registration number and Ringer Equivalence
Number (REN) for the equipment. You must, upon
request, provide this information to your
telephone company.
The REN is useful in determining the number of
devices you may connect to your telephone line
and still have all of these 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 5. To be
certain of the number of devices you may connect to
your line as determined by the REN, you should
contact your local telephone company.
Notes
• This equipment may not be used on coin
service provided by the telephone company.
• Party lines are subject to state tariffs, and
therefore, you may not be able to use your own
telephone equipment if you are on a party line.
Check with your local telephone company.
• Notice must be given to the telephone company
upon permanent disconnection of your
telephone from your line.
2Rights of the Telephone Company
Should your equipment cause trouble on your
line which may harm the telephone network, the
telephone company shall, where practicable,
notify you that temporary discontinuance of
service may be required. Where prior notice is not
practicable and the circumstances warrant such
action, the telephone company may temporarily
discontinue service immediately. In case of such
temporary discontinuance, the telephone
company must: (1) promptly notify you of such
temporary discontinuance; (2) afford you the
opportunity to correct the situation; and (3)
inform you of your right to bring a complaint to
the Commission pursuant to procedures set forth
in Subpart E of Part 68, FCC Rules and
Regulations.
The telephone company may make changes in its
communications facilities, equipment, operations
of procedures where such action is required in
the operation of its business and not inconsistent
with FCC Rules and Regulations. If these changes
are expected to affect the use or performance of
your telephone equipment, the telephone
company must give you adequate notice, in writing,
to allow you to maintain uninterrupted service.

INTERFERENCE INFORMATION
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna (that is,
the antenna for radio or television that is
“receiving” the interference).
• Reorient or relocate and increase the separation
between the telecommunications equipment and
receiving antenna.
• Connect the telecommunications equipment into
an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiving antenna is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
If these measures do not eliminate the interfer-
ence, 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.

CALLER ID
This feature allows you to see the number or name and number of the person calling before
you answer the phone.
CALL WAITING
This feature allows you to answer incoming calls while you are talking on the phone.
CALLER ID WITH CALL WAITING
Also known as Type II Caller ID, this feature allows you to see the number or name and
number of a call that beeps in while you are talking on the phone with someone else.
VERY IMPORTANT: The Caller ID with Call Waiting feature of this product is totally dependent
upon your phone company's capabilities. You may subscribe to one service or the other, or even to
both, and this product will function properly.
But to take advantage of the Caller ID with Call Waiting feature, you must call your local phone
company and tell the representative that you have a Caller ID/Call Waiting device that integrates the
two services, regardless of whether or not you already subscribe to one or both services indepen-
dently.
The phone companies that do have the ability to integrate Call Waiting and Caller ID must program your
telephone line for the feature to work.
Your GE 2-9992 Messaging System with Caller ID and Call Waiting is designed to give you
flexibility in use and high quality performance. You can use this unit with basic telephone
service, but to fully take advantage of its features you must subscribe to the services below:
