T-Switch

A standard hearing aid consists of a high gain amplifier between a microphone and

receiver. If you put a cup over the ear such as a telephone handset, there is serious

feedback and squealing. The remedy is to add a "T-Switch" in the hearing aid that

disconnects the microphone and replaces it with a coil of wire. The phone receiver also

has a coil of wire (HAC coil), and so these two coils form a transformer when they are in

close proximity. Transformers transmit the signal magnetically rather than acoustically.

The T-Coil in the hearing aid picks up any magnetic energy in close proximity. Spread

spectrum phones produce a magnetic field when the RF transmitter turns on and off

repeatedly. This magnetic energy can be picked up as static or hum in a hearing aid, but

is usually a much lower level than the intended audio transmitted from the HAC coil.

Generally, non-spread spectrum phones will perform better with hearing aids.

process for T2406 calls

If the customer has had his or her unit longer than 45 days:

1. Advise the customer to mail his or her entire product to the San Antonio Returns

Center using the normal in warranty repair shipping and return process.

2. Advise the customer that upon receiving his or her telephone product at our San

Antonio Returns Center, he or she will receive a similar or upgraded replacement model

within 3 business days.

If the customer has had his or her unit less than 45 days or refuses to pay shipping costs

to return their product for in warranty service:

Do not send the customer back to the retailer. Offer to issue a replacement order and

send a prepaid ARS label via US Mail for him or her to ship their original product back at

no charge to them.

· If this is the case, it will be necessary for you to place an order for the VTech T2406

using the EXCHANGE-IW promo code in COPS and use regular standard shipping. (The

customer will receive the replacement within 3-Business days.)

· After placing the order, send an internal referral commitment to the [VTECH ARS

LABEL] team for a prepaid UPS ARS Label to be sent to the customer.

NOTE: DO NOT SEND THESE CUSTOMERS BACK TO THE RETAILER FOR

REPLACEMENT (EVEN IF THEY ARE WITHIN THE FIRST 30 DAYS OF

Explanation of Why the TeleZapper Should Be Set On

'BASIC' to avoid interference with an Answering System

Once the Answering System picks up the line, the TeleZapper also seizes the line and

generates the tones which 'zap' telemarketers. When the TeleZapper is in 'advanced'

mode, the tones can stay on the line long enough that the Answering System may think

that an extension phone has been picked up (depending on the Answering System). If this

happens, the Answering System's Call Intercept/Interrupt feature will stop the recording

of the message, and since no extension has actually been picked up, the call will be

disconnected.

Twisted Pair Cords

Twisted pair cords are a type of phone cord wires used to reduce interference/crosstalk

between lines. Twisted pair cords consist of two insulated copper wires which are twisted

around each other to reduce interference from one wire to the other. The twisting of the

wire pairs is what reduces the interference.

Dual-Band Frequency

Our unit does utilize both the 5.8 and 2.4 GHz frequency bands simultaneously. The

dual-band technology provides a clear advantage over existing cordless phones in its

ability to avoid interference and provide optimal clarity in both received and transmitted

audio.

Since transmitting in the 5.8 GHz frequency requires more power, the Base station

transmits with the 5.8 GHz band (since it remains plugged to a power outlet all the time),

while the battery-operated Handset transmits in the 2.4 GHz band, so it can yield

optimum talk-time performance between battery charges.

Operating Range General

This cordless telephone operates within the maximum power allowed by the Federal

Communications Commission (FCC). Even so, this handset and base can communicate

over only a certain distance --- which can vary with the locations of the base and handset,

the weather, and the construction of your home or office. For best performance, keep the

base antenna fully upright.

If you receive a call while you are out of range, the handset might not ring --- or if it does

ring, the call might not connect when you press [PHONE]. Move closer to the base, then

press [PHONE] to answer the call.

If you move out of range during a phone conversation, you might hear noise or

interference. To improve reception, move closer to the base.

If you move out range without pressing[OFF], your phone will be left "off the hook." To

hang up properly, walk back into range, periodically pressing [OFF].

Handset De-Registration (2455/2461)

1.Disconnect power to the Base (either unplug the DC connector from the bottom of the

Base or unplug the power supply from the outlet). Remove spare battery, if applicable.

2.Hold down the base PAGE key while applying power back to the Base. When the

POWER LED begins to blink, release the PAGE key.

THE USER HAS 15 SECONDS TO BEGIN THE NEXT STEP;OTHERWISE, THE

BASE WILL EXIT PROGRAM MODE.

3.Hold down the PAGE key for 5 seconds. The HANDSET CHARGING LED will be

lit, and after 5 seconds, the LINE IN USE LED will start to flash. Now release the PAGE

key.

4.The HANDSET CHARGING LED will blink 5 times and then go out. Within 5

seconds from when it stops blinking, press and release the PAGE key.

All handsets should now be deregistered.

Conference calls

When call is conferenced, two lines are being bridged through one telephone. The normal

loss that occurs between a station to station call is doubled when using the conference

call feature. The quality of transmission depends on many variables including the amount

of line voltage available at the phone and the distance of miles between the two other

parties. Customer may consider 3-way calling service (if available through local telco) as

alternative. Customer is less likely to experience volume loss due to more direct routing

of conference.

Caller Id after 2^ndring

Most Telco's send out the Caller ID information between the 1st and 2nd ring. Some

Telco's send out this information later. If the machine answers the call before the

information is received, the Caller ID information will be lost. Please set the number of

rings to a number higher than 2. The customer may want to turn the machine off and

then let a call come in to see when the information arrives. You need to set the answering

system to answer the ring after the caller ID information arrives. Do not set it for the

same ring. If you have voice mail service, set it to answer at 6 rings.

Operating Range 2.4

This cordless operates in the 2.4 Gigahertz frequency band. Radio signals in this band

can penetrate small openings and reflect around obstructions more effciently than those

of conventional cordless telephones. This alows the unit to operate in areas that are

typically difficult for cordless phones.

Your cordless telephone operates at the maximum power allowed by the Federal

Communications Commission (FCC). Even so, your handset and base can communicate

only over a certain distance which can vary with the locations of the base and handset,

the weather, and the construction of your home or office.

Spread Spectrum Echo

This unit employs state-of-the-art frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) technology

to achieve one of the longest ranges in the consumer cordless telephone industry. FHSS

is a digital technology that is also found in much more expensive cellular telephones.

Just as it is common to experience echo in some cellular telephone systems, some users

will experience occasional echo while using this phone. The presence and/or level of

echo will depend on the electrical characteristics of the connection between the phone

and user's local central office. This is normal operation. The customer can lower the

volume on the handset and this will decrease the echo.

Caller ID/Call Waiting Services

It may not be enough that the users subscribe to both services, they may also need to ask

the local phone company to combine Caller ID with Call Waiting, so that their Caller ID

product will be able to recognize names and numbers for a Call Waiting call, as well as,

for regular calls. There may be an additional charge for this combined feature. Their

phone company may use names for this combined feature that are not on this list, but

listed below are some of the more generally used names for this combined Caller ID with

Call Waiting service:

·Call Waiting ID, Caller ID/Call Waiting ID - Bell Atlantic

·Wait and See - Ameritech

·Call Waiting ID - PacBell, SW Bell

·Caller ID with Name on Call Waiting - SNET

in.

Operating Range 900

This cordless operates in the 900 megahertz frequency band. Radio signals in this band

can penetrate small openings and reflect around obstructions more effciently than those

of conventional cordless telephones. This alows the unit to operate in areas that are

typically difficult for cordless phones.

Your cordless telephone operates at the maximum power allowed by the Federal

Communications Commission (FCC). Even so, your handset and base can communicate

only over a certain distance which can vary with the locations of the base and handset,

the weather, and the construction of your home or office.

Cardiac Pacemakers

THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IS LOCATED AT THE BEGINNING OF THE

CIB

Cardiac Pacemakers (applies only to 900 MHz Digital Cordless Telephones):

Preliminary studies performed at the U.S.. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and

elsewhere have shown that when digital wireless telephones using technology similar to

900 MHz Cordless Telephones are placed very close to implanted cardiac pacemakers,

interference with the operation of the pacemaker can occur. These preliminary studies

show that interference is not likely to occur when there is a reasonable distance between

the telephone and the implanted pacemaker and stops when the phone is set in the

"battery save mode" or moved so that it is more than 3 inches from the pacemaker.

Based on these preliminary studies, the FDA has concluded that digital wireless

telephones "do not seem to pose a significant problem for pacemaker wearers.

Until more is known, the FDA suggests that people with pacemakers may want to take

some simple precautions when using or carrying digital wireless telephones to ensure that

there is ample distance between the digital cellular telephone and the pacemaker -- by not

placing the phone next to the pacemaker implant (for example, in a shirt or coat pocket

directly over the pacemaker implant) when the phone is turned on ready to receive a call

and holding it to the ear opposite the side of the body where the pacemaker is implanted

when using the phone. Consult your physician or medical device manufacturer to

determine if additional precautions are necessary.

Volume Controls

Both the base unit and the handset have digital volume controls. The volume controls for

the speakerphone are located on the front face of the base unit. Press the volume up side

to increase the speaker volume and the volume down side to decrease the volume.

Holding either side down will continuously change the volume setting.

The volume controls for the handset are located on the side of the unit. Press the [^] (up)

or [v] (down) keys to increase or decrease the volume.

Date Code Sticker

The date code sticker can be found inside the handset battery compartment, on the bottom

of the base, or on the pretty box. It specifically indicates where and when the product

was manufactured.

Following is an example of what is shown on the sticker:

940101 B

2/7

CPS 2A

Note: If inputting the date code in the FCC field, use the following format:

940101B2-7CPS2A (CRS will not accept a slash.)

The battery save feature will deactivate the ring approximately 60 seconds after being set.

After 60 seconds, the phone will enter "sleep mode". The phone will not ring or display

"incoming call" when the extension phones are ringing. If any button on the phone is

pressed, this will "wake up" the phone. If there is an incoming call within 60 seconds of

a button being pressed, the phone will ring. Once nothing has been pressed for another

60 seconds, the phone will go back into "sleep mode" and will not ring.

ToneLength

Tone length for most cordless telephones is 80-100 milliseconds.

Some services may require longer tones. You need to look for a phone that will continue

to produce a tone signal for as long as a digit is held down. We have many phones with

long tones.

Handset Warmth

It is normal to feel heat near the battery compartment on the cordless handset once the

battery has been fully charged. There is a component in the battery known as a

"separator" which converts excess energy to heat.

Relocate Phone In Home EMI + Sep/Phns

Interference generated by some radio equipment and electrical appliances and machinery

may travel through the air, affecting other types of equipment in close proximity.

Filters cannot help in this situation. Separating the objects may be the only solution.

Split Line w/Triplex + Verify 2 cond cord on line 1

If single line telephone equipment is also experiencing crosstalk, the customer may try

the following remedies:

1.Use shortest line cords possible.

2.Use 2 conductor line cords to connect all single line equipment.

3.Disconnect line 2 wires on any jack where not needed.

Crosstalk

If crosstalk occurs while phones are plugged into the network interface, inside wiring is

NOT the problem. Plug separate phones into the individual interfaces for each line.

Both lines will need to be in use at the same time to get valid test results.

TWO SINGLE LINE JACKS

Verify that 2 conductor line cord is connected to L1/L2 port on telephone. 4 conductor

cord may be used at L2 port.

SINGLE LINE TELEPHONE EQUIPMENT

If single line telephone equipment is also experiencing crosstalk, customer may try the

following remedies:

1.Use shortest line cords possible.

2.Use 2 conductor line cords to connect all single line equipment.

3.Disconnect line 2 wires on any jack where not needed.

TWO-LINE JACKS

·Use triplex adapter and 2 line cords at each affected two-line set.

·Connect cords to L1 and L2 on adapter (not L1+L2) cannot use wall phones with triplex

adapter.

Suggestions for reducing local telephone line recordings:

·If possible advise your callers to leave a message.

·Check with the local telephone company and advise them 7-10 seconds of silence is

required for the answering system to disconnect.

NOTE: Charges may apply

Call Waiting disconnects answering system

Answering System senses a fluctuation in line voltage caused by the Call Waiting signal

and disconnects.

Contact Local Telephone Company for possible solutions.

External Antennas

Additional external antennas are not recommended for the following reasons:

·AT&T cordless telephones are designed to ensure that the power output of the set does

not exceed standards set by the FCC. The maximum power output allowed is .1 watt (or

100 milliwatts).

·Any attachment to a cordless telephone which increases the power output is in violation

of FCC regulations.

·Once the product is opened in order to connect the external antenna, the warranty is

voided.

Hearing Aid Compatibility

This product is compatible with inductively coupled hearing aids.

Use of any other amplification devices near or on the cordless product may produce

squealing, whistling, or feedback.

·If you use a hearing aid in only one ear, cradle the handset to the other ear to try to avoid

microphone feedback.

·Remove or turn off the hearing aid when using the handset.

·Use a different extension telephone if you are unable to use the product without

assistance of a hearing aid.

Information regarding inductively coupled hearing aids:

·This type of hearing aid is usually equipped with a T (telephone ) switch, specifically

installed for improved amplification with telephone use.

·Flip the T switch to the telephone position to turn off the hearing aid microphone and

turn on the inductive pickup coil that receives voice signals through a magnetic field

generated by some telephone handset.

·Not all telephones generate a sufficiently strong magnetic field to couple to these hearing

aids.

·Those that do are labelled Hearing Aid Compatible by AT&T.

Hearing Aid Compatibility

This product is compatible with inductively coupled hearing aids.

Clean Charging Contacts

·Each month clean handset and base charging contacts using a pencil eraser or a cloth to

eliminate deposit accumulation.

·Charge light should come on when handset is cradled in base.

·Charge handset for 10 hours.

Calling in same Area Code

Many LTCO's are changing their dialing sequence to 0 +, or 1 +, 10-digit dialing (0 + 0r

1 + area code + seven-digit phone number) for all long distance calls that are made within

the same area code. All 0 +, or 1 +, 7-digit dialing within the same area code will be

eliminated. This also means that local credit card and operator assistance calls that

traditionally have been 0 + 7 dialed calls will now require 0 + 10 dialing. You will

continue 0 + or 1 + 10 digit dialing for long distance calls into other area codes as you do

today.

Chirping Sounds

If chirping sounds are detected from the handset or base, check the following possible

causes:

·Smoke detectors

·Other cordless telephones

·Alarm clocks

To enable the unit to work with business systems:

·Install the unit at the control box, or

·Wire a jack around the system.

NOTE: Unit will not have business system features if installed in this manner.

Check with the local telephone company to inquire as to possible low line voltage.

NOTE: The recommended voltage is 24 to 48 on hook.

Due to reduced line voltage, avoid having additional extension telephones "off the hook"

during a call.

Wet Handset

A handset dropped in water may still operate if left out to dry.

1.Empty any residual water.

2.Leave handset face down on a towel to dry for 72 hours.

3.If handset does not operate after 72 hours, send it in for repair.

To determine if telephones ring separately or together:

1.Remove telephones from line.

2.Replace one at a time.

·Line 1 has a higher pitched ring that helps differentiate it from the ring of Line 2.

·Have someone call on each line.

·Let the telephone ring approximately five times and listen to the difference.

·Try using 2 two conductor cords or purchase a 267C adapter.

·Try a Triplex adapter and use a two cord connection.

Ringer Volume Not Adjustable

Ringer volume cannot be adjusted.

If the volume is too loud, the ringer switch may be shut off.

NOTE: This will turn the ringer off completely and you will lose line lights.

4 Conductor Line Corfd

To determine if the unit's cord is four pin or two pin:

·Take another telephone "off the hook."

·Remove and inspect the telephone line cord.

Low Battery indicator

The Low Battery indicator does not appear if:

·The unit is completely charged.

·The handset has completely discharged.

If the handset is normally kept in the base, the light should not appear.

Unplug excessive telephones or adjuncts or disconnect the telephones needed to bring

ringer equivalence below total ringer equivalence.

Check with the local telephone company to inquire as to possible low line voltage.

NOTE: The recommended voltage is 24 to 48 on hook.

·Unplug both ends of the line cord.

·Plug in both ends of the line cord.

·Replace the line cord if the connections are loose.

Explain Call Waiting

Explanation to Call Waiting customers:

·The unit picks up the first call after the preset number of rings.

·The second caller hears the telephone ring until the unit resets and is ready to answer the

next call.

·There is no reset time.

More Than One Cordless

If more than 1 cordless installed, have customer check to see if handsets are cradled on

the correct base unit.

Ringer Equivalence

On the bottom of each telephone or adjunct is a Ringer Equivalence.

1.Find this number for everything connected to your telephone line.

2.Add up all the numbers to get the total Ringer Equivalence.

Julian Date

NOTE: Contact the telephone company, if required.

The Julian date for this unit is found on the bottom of the unit.

TAS units are manufactured in:

·Mexico (M)

·Taiwan (H)

·China (G)

·Thailand (L)

The Julian date (XX XXX X) is read as follows:

·The first two numbers (XX XXX X) represent the year (00 - 99) of manufacture.

·The next three numbers (XX XXX X) represent the day of the year (1 - 365) of

manufacture.

·The last letter (XX XXX X) represent the place (M, H, G, L) of manufacture.

So, for example, 92291G was built in 1992, on the 291st day, in China.

When asked if a Julian date is after 92291G, 922209H, or 92168M, compare the Julian

date the customer gives you with the Julian date above for the same manufacturing site.

For example, if the customer said,"93005G," you would compare it to 92291G and

answer, "Yes."

Digital Voice

The difference between the electronic and human voice:

The electronic voice is a digital reproduction of a human voice which is analog.

telephone if you ever need to ship it.

Avoid water

Your telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not use the Handset outdoors in

the rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not install your Base Unit near a sink, bathtub,

or shower.

Electrical storms

Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic equipment.

For your own safety, use caution when using electric appliances during storms.

Cleaning your telephone

Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for many years.

Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild soap. Do not

use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.

Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when you

are wet or standing in water. If your Base Unit should fall into water, DO NOT

RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND TELEPHONE LINE

CORDS FROM THE WALL. Then pull the unit out by the unplugged cords.

In Case Of Difficulty

If you have difficulty operating your phone, the suggestions below should solve the

problem. If you still have difficulty after trying these suggestions, call VTech Communica-

tions at 1-800-595-9511. In Canada, call VTech Telecommunications Canada Ltd. at

1-800-267-7377.

The phone doesn't work at all

•

Make sure the power cord is plugged in.

Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the base unit and the

telephone wall jack.

•

Make sure the batteries are properly charged. If you get a Low Battery message

or indication, the batteries need charging.

No dial tone

•

First try all the suggestions above.

If you still don't hear a dial tone, disconnect the base unit from the telephone jack

and connect a different phone. If there is no dial tone on that phone either, the

problem is in your wiring or local service. Contact your local telephone company.

You get noise, static, or a weak signal even when you're near the base

unit

•

Household appliances plugged into the same circuit as the base unit can

sometimes cause interference. Try moving the appliance or the base unit to

another outlet.

You get noise, static, or a weak signal when you're away from the Base

Unit

•

You may be out of range. Either move closer to the base, or relocate the base

unit.

•

The layout of your home may be limiting the range. Try moving the base unit to

another position.

The handset does not ring when you receive a call

•

Make sure you have the ringer activated.

Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the base unit and the

telephone jack. Make sure the power cord is plugged in.

You may be too far from the base unit.

You may have too many extension phones on your telephone line to allow all of

them to ring. Try unplugging some of the other phones.

•

In Case Of Difficulty

Your Handset vibrates or shakes when a call comes in

•

It is likely that your Vibrating Handset Ringer option has been set to ON.

You hear other calls while using your phone

•

Disconnect your Base Unit from the telephone jack, and plug in a regular telephone.

If you still hear other calls, the problem is probably in your wiring or local service.

Call your local telephone company.

You hear noise in the Handset, and none of the keys or buttons work

•

Make sure the power cord is plugged in.

(FCC) rules for the United States. It also complies with regulations RSS210 and CS-

03 of Industry and Science Canada. 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.

A label is located on the underside of the Base Unit containing either the FCC

registration number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) or the IC registration

number and Load Number. You must, upon request, provide this information to your

local telephone company.

This equipment is compatible with inductively coupled hearing aids.

Should you experience trouble with this telephone equipment, please contact:

VTech Communications Inc. CUSTOMER SERVICE at 1-800-595-9511. In Canada,

call VTech Telecommunications Canada Ltd. at 1-800-267-7377 for repair/

FCC Part 15

Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party

responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

The equipment has been tested and found to comply with 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 and, if not installed and used in accordance with the

instructions, 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 and 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 into an outlet or on a circuit different from that to which

the receiver is connected.

•

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

To ensure safety of users, the FCC has established criteria for the amount of radio

frequency energy that can be safely absorbed by a user or bystander according to the

intended usage of the product. This product has been tested and found to comply with

the FCC criteria. The handset has such a low power that it does not require testing. It

may be safely held against the ear of the user. The base unit shall be installed & used

such that parts of the user’s body other than the hands should be maintained at a

comfortable distance of approximately 20 cm or more. If you choose to use a clipping

device, please make sure to only use the supplied VTech belt clip.

FCC and ACTA Information

If this equipment was approved for connection to the telephone network prior to July

23, 2001, it complies with Part 68 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)

FCC, ACTA and IC Regulations

rules. If the equipment was approved after that date, it complies with the Part 68

rules and with Technical Requirements for Connection of Equipment to the Telephone

Network adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments (ACTA).

We are required to provide you with the following information.

1. Product identifier and REN information

The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among other things, an

identifier indicating product approval and the Ringer Equivalence Number (REN). This

information must be provided to your local telephone company upon request. For

equipment approved prior to July 23, 2001, the product identifier is preceded by the

phrase “FCC Reg No.” and the REN is listed separately. For equipment approved after

that date, the product identifier is preceded by “US” and a colon (:), and the REN is

encoded in the product identifier without a decimal point as the sixth and seventh

characters following the colon. For example, the product identifier US:AAAEQ03T123XYZ

would indicate an REN of 0.3.

The REN is used to determine how many devices you may connect to your telephone

line and still have them ring when you are called. In most, but not all areas, the sum

of all RENs should be five (5.0) or less. For more information, please contact your

local telephone company.

2. Connection and use with the nationwide telephone network

The plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and the

telephone network must comply with the applicable Part 68 rules and technical

requirements adopted by ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and modular plug is

provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to a compatible modular jack

that is also compliant. An RJ11 jack should normally be used for connecting to a single

line and an RJ14 jack for two lines. See Installation Instructions in this user’s manual.

This equipment may not be used with Coin Telephone Lines or with Party Lines. If

you have specially wired alarm dialing equipment connected to your telephone line,

ensure the connection of this equipment does not disable your alarm equipment. If you

have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone

company or a qualified installer.

3. Repair instructions

If this equipment is malfunctioning, it must be unplugged from the modular jack until

the problem has been corrected. Repairs to this telephone equipment can only be made

by the manufacturer or its authorized agents. For repair procedures, follow the

instructions outlined under the Limited Warranty.

4. Rights of the telephone company

If this equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company

may temporarily discontinue your telephone service. The telephone company is required

to notify you before interrupting service. If advance notice is not practical, you will be

notified as soon as possible. You will be given the opportunity to correct the problem

and the telephone company is required to inform you of your right to file a complaint

with the FCC. Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment,

operation, or procedures that could affect the proper functioning of this product. The

telephone company is required to notify you if such changes are planned.

FCC, ACTA and IC Regulations

5. Hearing aid compatibility

If this product is equipped with a corded or cordless handset, it is hearing aid compatible.

6. Programming/testing of emergency numbers

If this product has memory dialing locations, you may choose to store police, fire

department and emergency medical service telephone numbers in these locations. If

you do, please keep three things in mind:

a. We recommend that you also write the telephone number on the directory card,

so that you can still dial the emergency number manually if the memory dialing

feature doesn’t work.

b. This feature is provided only as a convenience, and the manufacturer assumes

no responsibility for customer reliance upon the memory feature.

c. Testing the emergency telephone numbers you have stored is not recommended.

However, if you do make a call to an emergency number:

•

You must remain on the line and briefly explain the reason for the call before

hanging up.

•

Programming/testing of emergency numbers should be performed during

off-peak hours, such as in the early morning or late evening, when the

emergency services tend to be less busy.

IC (Industry Canada)

This telephone is registered for use in Canada.

The term “IC:” before the radio certification number only signifies that Industry Canada

technical specifications were met.

Notice: This equipment meets the applicable Industry Canada Terminal Equipment

Technical Specifications. This is confirmed by the registration number. The

abbreviation, IC, before the registration number signifies that registration was

performed based on a Declaration of Conformity indicating that Industry Canada

technical specifications were met. It does not imply that Industry Canada approved

the equipment.

Notice: The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this terminal equipment is 0.1.

The REN assigned to each terminal equipment provides an indication of the maximum

number of terminals 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.

Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be con-

nected 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 ser-

vices in some situations.

Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian mainte-

nance facility 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.

FCC, ACTA and IC Regulations

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 electrical inspection authority or electrician as appropriate.

Your Cordless Phone is designed to operate at the maximum power allowed by the

FCC and IC. This means your Handset and Base Unit can communicate only over

a certain distance - which will depend on the location of the Base Unit and Handset,

weather, and the construction and layout of your home or office.
