Regulatory Information
Declaration of Conformity
U.S. Robotics Corporation
935 National Parkway
Schaumburg, IL 60173
U.S.A.
Declares that this product conforms to the FCC Part15, Class B specifi-
cations. This equipment complies with FCC Part 15 for Home and
Office use.
FCC Equipment Approval Information
Your telephone equipment is approved for connection to the Public
Switched Telephone Network and is in compliance with parts 15 and
68, FCC Rules and Regulations and the Technical Requirements for Tel-
ephone Terminal Equipment published by ACTA.
On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other
information, the US number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN)
for the equipment. You must, upon request, provide this information to
your telephone company.
The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be con-
nected to a telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may
result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most
but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be
certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as
determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company.
A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring
and telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68
rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone
cord modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be
connected to a compatible modular jack that is also compliant. See this
document for details.

Regulatory Information
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the tel-
ephone 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.
If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the
telephone line, ensure the installation of this product does not disa-
ble your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will
disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone company or a qual-
ified installer.
Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may harm the
telephone network, the telephone company shall, where practicable,
notify your 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 serv-
ice immediately. In case of such temporary discontinuance, the tele-
phone 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 or Part 68, FCC
Rules and Regulations.
The telephone company may make changes in its communications facil-
ities, equipment, operations or 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 perform-
ance of your telephone equipment, the telephone company must give
you adequate notice, in writing, to allow you to maintain uninterrupted
service.

Radio and Television Interference Information
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation of this
device is subject to the following conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful electromagnetic interference,
and
(2) this device must accept any interference received including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired operations.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for
a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy. If this equipment is not installed
and used in accordance with the manufacturer’s 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.
If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult your
dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional sug-
gestions. 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 Print-
ing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Please specify stock number 004-
000-00345-4 when ordering copies.

Regulatory Information
Noise
Electrical pulse noise is present at one time or another. This is most
intense during electrical storms. Certain kinds of electrical equipment,
such as light dimmers, fluorescent bulbs, motors, fans, etc., also generate
pulse noise. Because radio frequencies are susceptible to this, you may
on occasion hear pulse noise through the receiver. This is usually only a
minor annoyance and should not be interpreted as a defect of the unit.
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set
forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment is in direct con-
tact with the body of the user under normal operating conditions. This
transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter. For hand held operation, this phone has
been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines. Use of other
accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guide-
lines.
Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)
This telephone system meets FCC and Industry Canada standards for
Hearing Aid Compatibility.
Privacy
Privacy of communications may not be ensured when using this tele-
phone.
UL Listing/CUL Listing
If you use your own telephone cable, you must use a minimum No. 26
AWG and FCC compliant telephone cable.

ment.
Notice: The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this terminal
equipment is marked on the equipment. The REN assigned to each ter-
minal equipment provides an indication of the maximum number of ter-
minals allowed to be connected to a telephone interface. The
termination on an interface may consist of any combination of devices
subject only to the requirement that the sum of the Ringer Equivalence
Numbers of all the devices does not exceed five.
The term “IC:” before the radio certification number only signifies that
Industry Canada technical specifications were met. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that
may cause undesired operation of the device.
