machine will ring with the assigned ring pattern  
and automatically start fax reception.  
If the incoming call is for the phone number:  
5.1 Distinctive Ring  
service from your phone  
company  
the fax machine will keep on ringing in TEL  
mode.  
the fax machine will record a voice message  
in TAM/FAX mode.  
fax communication will be attempted in FAX  
ONLY mode.  
This service is convenient if you wish to have a  
different number for your fax machine and  
telephone, even when you use them on a single  
telephone line.  
Distinctive Ring is a service offered by your local  
telephone company which allows you to use  
several telephone numbers on one telephone  
line. When a call is made to one of your phone  
numbers, the telephone company sends a ring  
pattern to your telephone line to indicate which  
number the call is intended for. By setting up this  
unit for Distinctive Ring, you can make the fax  
machine automatically start fax reception when  
a call comes to the fax number.  
5.3 Using three or more  
phone numbers on a  
single telephone line  
You may wish to use three or more phone  
numbers for a single telephone line to distinguish  
which number the call was addressed to. A  
different ring pattern must be assigned for each  
number.  
To use this service, you must subscribe to  
the Distinctive Ring service offered by your  
local telephone company.

FCC and Other Information  
11.3 FCC and Other Information  
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC  
rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA.  
On the rear of this equipment is a label that  
contains, among other information, a product  
identifier in the format US:ACJ----------.  
Connection to party line service is subject to state  
tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission,  
public service commission or corporation  
commission for information.  
If requested, this number must be provided to the  
telephone company.  
This equipment is hearing aid compatible as  
defined by the FCC in 47 CFR Section 68.316.  
Registration No .....(found on the rear of the unit)  
Ringer Equivalence No. (REN)  
...............................(found on the rear of the unit)  
When you hold the phone to your ear, noise might  
be heard in your Hearing Aid. Some Hearing Aids  
are not adequately shielded from external RF  
(radio frequency) energy. If noise occurs, use an  
optional headset accessory or the speakerphone  
option (if applicable) when using this phone.  
Consult with your audiologist or Hearing Aid  
manufacturer about the availability of Hearing Aids  
which provide adequate shielding to RF energy  
commonly emitted digital devices.  
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 and modular plug is provided with  
this product. It is designed to be connected to a  
compatible modular jack that is also compliant.  
The REN is used to determine the number of  
devices that may be connected 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. For products approved  
after July 23, 2001, the REN for this product is part  
of the product identifier that has the format  
US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by  
## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g.,03 is  
a REN of 0.3).  
If your home has specially wired alarm equipment  
connected to the telephone line, ensure the  
installation of this equipment does not disable your  
alarm equipment. If you have questions about  
what will disable alarm equipment, consult your

advised of your right to file a complaint with the  
FCC if you believe it is necessary.  
The software contained in this equipment to allow  
user access to the network must be upgraded to  
recognize newly established network area codes  
and exchange codes as they are placed into  
service. Failure to upgrade the premises systems  
or peripheral equipment to recognize the new  
codes as they are established will restrict the

Free replacement and repair program  
The Panasonic Fax Advantage Consumer Service Program.  
Panasonic knows that if your fax machine is not up and running,  
neither is your business. That’s why we created the Panasonic  
Fax Advantage Program. Included at no extra cost with the  
purchase of a new and unused Panasonic Fax Machine (along  
with included handset), the Fax Advantage Program can provide  
a free replacement unit3 if your original unit is in need of repair.  
Here’s how it works:  
1. If you have a problem with your fax that you purchased new  
and unused while it is covered by the period of limited  
warranty1, call our toll-free help-line at 1-800-HELP-FAX2.  
2. Talk to one of our technical experts to diagnose your problem  
over the phone.  
3. If repairs are necessary and you are entitled to service under  
the terms and conditions of the limited warranty4, we will send  
a refurbished replacement unit to you by UPS Ground service  
delivery. The shipping method is upgradable for an extra  
charge.  
If our 1-800-HELP-FAX technicians determine that your unit  
may be an “out-of-box failure”5, we will attempt to provide you  
with a factory-new replacement unit6.You must ship a copy of  
your receipt with your original unit to verify that you purchased  
the unit within 10 days prior to your 1-800-HELP-FAX call.  
Requirements:  
You must give our technicians a valid credit card number  
(Discover, VISA, Master Card, or American Express/Optima).  
Product that is not returned to Panasonic by 10 business days  
after shipment of the replacement product will be charged to  
your credit card account at Panasonic’s Suggested Retail Price  
(see dealer for details). If your original unit is not eligible for  
warranty service, your card will be charged for the non-warranty  
repair of the unit at Panasonic’s current rate for parts and labor  
and for any shipping charges associated with this program. If  
you do not wish to pay out-of-warranty repair costs, you will be  
responsible for returning the replacement unit to Panasonic and  
for paying all shipping charges associated with this program  
including the UPS delivery of the replacement product to you,  
shipment of the problem unit to Panasonic, shipment of the  
replacement unit back to Panasonic and the return of your  
original unit back to you. Credit status will be verified prior to  
sending the replacement product.  
A second option available under our limited warranty is to mail-in  
or carry-in your fax to one of our Regional Service centers, where  
the unit will be repaired and returned to you.  
Instructions:  
If you choose to receive a replacement unit under the Fax  
Advantage Program, Panasonic will provide a replacement unit  
which will be completely refurbished, quality-tested by Panasonic  
technicians and individually hand-inspected before it is shipped to  
you.You will keep the replacement unit and send the original unit to  
us in the replacement unit’s box. UPS will pick up the unit at no  
charge to you, should it be determined that you are entitled to  
warranty service. A proof-of-purchase must be included with the  
returned product. Any unit that is replaced by Panasonic and not  
shipped with proper proof-of-purchase by you will be subject to a  
minimum $100.00 charge. The original unit must be properly  
packaged in the same manner as the replacement unit, utilizing the  
packing materials provided. Damage due to improper or inadequate  
packing will be charged to you as an out-of-warranty cost.  
1. See dealer for limited warranty details.  
2. After the fax advantage program, contact our Continued  
Services Technical Support Line at 1-900-555-PANA (1-900-  
555-7262), for fee based technical support.  
3. Replacement unit is refurbished.  
4. Replacement program is only available in the 50 United  
States, is subject to termination at any time without  
advance notice, and does not cover optional accessories.  
5. “Out-of-box failure” is an inoperable unit that was purchased  
no more than 10 days prior to your 1-800-HELP-FAX call,  
and would otherwise qualify for warranty service under the  
terms and conditions of the limited warranty.  
6. Panasonic reserves the right to send a refurbished unit.
