the requirements adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal
Attachments (ACTA).
A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring
and telephone network must comply with applicable FCC Part 68 rules
and requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord
and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be

Notification of the Local Telephone Company
On the bottom of this equipment is a label that contains, among other
information, a product identifier in the form US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. You
must, upon request, provide this information to your telephone
company.
The digits represented by ## in the product identifier indicate the
Ringer Equivalency Number (REN) for this equipment. 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, contact your local telephone company.

telephone company.

the state public utility commission, public service commission or
corporation commission for information.

does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions
about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone
company or a qualified installer.

disconnection of your telephone from your line.
• The FCC requires that you connect your cordless telephone to the
nationwide telephone network through a modular telephone jack
(USOC RJ11C/RJ11W or RJ14C/RJ14W).
Rights 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 practical and the circumstances warrant such
action, the telephone company may temporarily disconnect 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;
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 facilities, equipment,
operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of the
equipment. If this happens, the telephone company will provide
advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications to
maintain uninterrupted service.
