PREPARING A FIRE ESCAPE PI-AN
Even with the mo6t adrranced firc alarm s)atem, adequate protection requires
an cscape plan. To preparc your plan:
Draw floor plans of lour building. Shor two exits - a front or back door and a
windo'from each room. (Make surc the windowworks. You may need a special
fire+scape laddcr if the window is high up.) Write down lour outside meeting
place.
Famlly Rehcarsel
Rehearre each of the following activities:
1. Eveqone in his room with the doors closed.
2. One person sounds the alarm.
3. Each pcrson tests his door.
t0 1t

4. Pretend the door is hot and use the alternate escape exit.
5. Everyone meets outdoors at the assiged spot.
FLOORPI-AN
IMPORTANT! - Rcad CarefullY.
Discuss thesc escape prccedures with all those who use the building:
1. In a residence, sleep with the bedroom door closed. A closed doorwill hold
back deadly smoke while you escape.
2. When the fire alarm signals, escape quickly. Do not stop to pack'
3. Test the door. If it is hot, use your alternate route thrcugh the windos'. If the
door is cool, bnce your shoulder against it and open it cautiously. Be ready to
slam the door if smoke or heat nrshes in. Crawl through smoke, holding your
brcath. Close the doors again on leaving to help prcvent the frre from spreading.
4. Go topurspecificoutdoormeetingplace soyou can see that everyone is safe.
5. Assign someone to make sure nobody returns to the burning building.
6. Call the Fire Department from a neighbor's telephone.

THE FOLIOWING STATEMENT IS REQUIRED BYTHEFCC.
This equipment generates and uses radio-frequencyenergrand, ifnot installed
and used properly, that is, in strict acmrdance with the manufacturels instruc-
tions, may causc interference to radio and television rcception. It has been type
tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class-B computing device in
acmrdancc with the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which
are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a
residential installa tion.
Hm,ever, therc is no guarantee that interfercnce will not ocrcur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television
reception, wtrich can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
follming measures: reorient the rcceiving antenna; relocate the computer with
rcspect to the receiver; move the computer away from the receiver; plug the
computer into a different outlet so that computer and receiver are on different
branch circuits.
If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experienced
radio/television technician for additional suggestions. The user may find the
folloring booklet prcparcd by the Federal C.ommunications Commission help-
ful: "Ho, to Identify and Resolve Radio-TV Interference Problems." This
booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing Office,Washington, DC
20402; Stock No. 0044m403454.
Rlngcr Equlvatcncc Number.
The FCC Registration l-abel, found on top ofyour system and on the bottom
of your telephone sets, includes the ringer equivalence number (REN). This is
a representation of the electrical load thatwill be applied toyour telephone line.
This qctem has a ringer equivalence of zero. Therefore, it does not affect the
load of the telephone companycentral office equipment whenyour telephones
ring. The telephone line scrvicingyourpremises will not operate properly if the
total ringer load exceeds the capability of the central office equipment. That is,
if too many ringers are connected to the line, there may be insufficient enerry
to ring your tclephones. If the ringer load is excessivc, you may also have
difficulty dialing telephone numbers.
Ifyou want to kn(n'the total REN allowed foryour telephone line,you maycall
t3

your telephone company. Howerrer, as a nrlc of thumb, a total REN of Fwe (5)
should permit nomal operation of lour telephonc scts and cquipment. To
determine the total ringcr load, list the REN of each ofyour telePhone sets or
dcviccs connectcd tolour telephonc line. Add thesc numbcrs; the rcsult is the
total REN for )our linc. If this number cxcceds 5, ]rou maywant to consult your
telephone crmpany to determine whether or not prol)er oPeration of your
equipment is possiblc.
It e Dlgltal Communlcetor b Connccttd to a Tclcphonc Llnc:
Do not notify the telephone company. It is no longer necessary to call the
telephone company to notify it of the registration and ringer equivalence
numbers of any telephone instrumcnt bcing connected to the Public switched
telephonc netcorh Thc telephonc companywill call and request this informa'
tion if a need ariscs in the futurc.
Rlghls of thc Tclapbonc Company
If ),our digital communicator causes harm to the telePhonc networlq thc
tclephone clmpany may discontinuc your service temporarily. If possible, they
