FCC STATEMENT

This phone is Hearing Aid compatible.

Your phone complies with Part 68 of FCC Rules. You must, upon request, provide the FCC registration number and the REN to your telephone company. Both numbers are on the bottom of the phone.

Note: You must not connect your phone to:

???coin-operated systems

???party-line systems

???most electronic key telephone systems

We have designed your phone to conform to federal regulations, and you can connect it to most telephone lines. However, each phone (and each device, such as an answering ma- chine) that you connect to the telephone line draws power from the telephone line. We re- fer to this power draw as the device's ringer equivalence number, or REN on the bottom of your phone.

If you use more than one phone or other de- vice on the line, add up all of the RENs. If the total is more than five (three in rural areas), your telephones might not ring. If ringer oper- ation is impaired, remove a device from the line.

In the unlikely event that your phone causes problems on the phone line, the phone com- pany can temporarily discontinue your ser- vice. If this happens, the phone company attempts to notify you in advance. If advance notice is not practical, the phone company notifies you as soon as possible and advises you of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

Also, the phone company can make changes to its lines, equipment, operations, or proce- dures that could affect the operation of this telephone. The telephone company notifies you of these changes in advance, so you can take the necessary steps to prevent interrup- tion of your telephone service.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO

KNOW

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 inter- ference 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 interfer- ence will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful inter- ference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encour- aged 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 into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

???Consult your local RadioShack store or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

???If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your phone.

Changes or modifications not expressly ap- proved by RadioShack may cause interfer- ence and void the user???s authority to operate the equipment.

LIGHTNING

Your telephone has built-in protection circuits to reduce the risk of damage from surges in telephone line and power line current. These protection circuits meet or exceed the FCC requirements. However, lightning striking the telephone or power lines can damage your telephone.

Lightning damage is not common. Neverthe- less, if you live in an area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug your phone when storms approach to reduce the possibility of damage.

?? Installation

SELECTING A LOCATION

You can place the phone on a desk or table, on a standard wall plate or mount it directly on a wall. Select a location that is:

???near a telephone line jack

???out of the way of normal activities

???away from electrical machinery, electri- cal appliances, metal walls, filing cabi- nets, wireless intercoms, security alarms, and room monitors

Your telephone connects directly to a modu- lar telephone line jack. If your telephone wir- ing does not have a modular jack, you can update the wiring yourself using jacks and adapters (available at your local RadioShack store), or have the telephone company up- date the wiring for you. You must use com- patible modular jacks that are compliant with Part 68 of FCC Rules. The telephone cord and modular plug provided is Part 68 compli- ant for connecting to the telephone company network.

Note: The USOC number of the single-line jack to be installed is RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall plate jack). The USOC number for a two-line jack is RJ14C (or RJ14W for a wall plate).

If Line 1 is in use, BATT LOW lights when no battery is installed for Line 1 or when Line 1???s batteries are low. When this happens, re- place the batteries.

Note: The BATT LOW indicator remains off when batteries are sufficient.

Warning: Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury them.

Caution: If you do not plan to use the phone for a month or more, remove the batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals that can de- stroy electronic parts.

Your phone requires four AA batteries (not supplied) to power the LINE indicators. For the best performance and longest life, we recommend RadioShack alkaline batteries.

Cautions:

???Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.

???Do not mix old and new batteries, or dif- ferent types of batteries.

Follow these steps to install batteries.

1.Use a flat-blade screwdriver to lift up the battery compartment cover, then remove the cover.

TESTING STORED

EMERGENCY NUMBERS

If you store the number of an emergency ser- vice (police department, fire department, am- bulance) and you choose to test the stored number, remain on the line to explain the reason for your call. Make the test call during the late evening or early morning hours to avoid periods of peak demand.

CHAIN-DIALING SPECIAL

SERVICE NUMBERS

For quick recall of numbers for special ser- vices (such as alternate long-distance or bank-by-phone), you can store each group of numbers in its own memory location.

When calling special services, dial the ser- vice???s main number first. At the appropriate place in the call, press the appropriate mem- ory number for the additional numbers you want to send.

?? Troubleshooting

We do not expect you have any problems with your Two Line Phone, but if you do, try these suggestions.

If you still have problems, disconnect the phone. If other phones on the same line work proper- ly, the fault is in this phone or its installation. If you cannot find the problem, take the phone to your local RadioShack store for assistance.

CARE

Keep the phone dry; if it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Use and store the phone only in nor- mal temperature environments. Handle the phone carefully; do not drop it. Keep the phone away from dust and dirt, and wipe it with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.

Modifying or tampering with the phone???s internal components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If your phone is not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance. If the trouble is affecting the telephone lines, the phone company can ask you to disconnect your phone until you have resolved the problem.
