are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and,
if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, it may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which 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
following measures:
❖Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
❖Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
❖Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
❖Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Only Peripherals complying with the FCC Class B limits may be attached to
this equipment. Operation with noncompliant peripherals or peripherals not
recommended by Toshiba is likely to result in interference to radio and TV
reception. Shielded cables must be used between the external devices and
the computer's or expansion unit's serial port, parallel port, monitor port,

FCC Requirements
The following information is pursuant to FCC CFR 47, Part 68 and refers
to internal modems.
Installation
When you are ready to install or use the modem, call your local telephone
company and give them the following information:
❖The telephone number of the line to which you will connect the
modem.
❖The FCC registration number of the modem.
❖The ringer equivalence number (REN) of the modem, which is 0.6B.
The modem connects to the telephone line by means of a standard jack
called the USOC RJ11C.
Type of Service
Your modem is designed to be used on standard-device telephone lines.
Connection to telephone company-provided coin service (central office
implemented systems) is prohibited. Connection to party lines service is
subject to State tariffs. If you have any questions about your telephone line,
such as how many pieces of equipment you can connect to it, the telephone
company will provide this information upon request.

5.375 x 8.375 ver 3.1
Telephone Company Procedures
The goal of the telephone company is to provide you with the best service it
can. In order to do this, it may occasionally be necessary for them to make
changes in their equipment, operations or procedures. If these changes
might affect your service or the operation of your equipment, the telephone
company will give you notice, in writing, to allow you to make any
changes necessary to maintain uninterrupted service.
If Problems Arise
If any of your telephone equipment is not operating properly, you should
immediately remove it from your telephone line, as it may cause harm to
the telephone network. If the telephone company notes a problem, they
may temporarily discontinue service. When practical, they will notify you
in advance of this disconnection. If advance notice is not feasible, you will
be notified as soon as possible. When you are notified, you will be given
the opportunity to correct the problem and informed of your right to file a
complaint with the FCC. In the event repairs are ever needed on your
modem, they should be performed by Toshiba Corporation, Toshiba
America Information Systems, Inc. or an authorized representative of
Toshiba.
Disconnection
If you should ever decide to permanently disconnect your modem from its
present line, please call the telephone company and let them know of this
change.
Fax Branding
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful to use
a computer or other electronic device to send any message via a telephone
fax machine unless such message clearly contains in a margin at the top or
bottom of each transmitted page or on the first page of the transmission, the
date and time it is sent and an identification of the business, other entity or
individual sending the message and the telephone number of the sending
machine or such business, other entity or individual.
In order to program this information into your fax modem, you should
complete the setup for your fax software before sending a message.

Instructions for IC CS-03 certified equipment
1NOTICE: The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment.
This certification means that the equipment meets certain
telecommunications network protective, operational and safety
requirements as prescribed in the appropriate Terminal Equipment
Technical Requirements document(s). The Department does not
guarantee the equipment will operate to the user’s satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is
permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local
telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed
using an acceptable method of connection. The customer should be
aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent
degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be coordinated by a
representative designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations
made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may
give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to
disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground
connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic
water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution
may be particularly important in rural areas.
Caution: Users should not attempt to make such connections
themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric inspection
authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
