Safety Precautions Continued  
FCC Part 68 & Class B Notices  
Your Wireless Modem System complies with Part 68 of FCC Rules. You must, upon request, provide  
the FCC registration number and the REN to your telephone company. These numbers are shown on  
the label on the base unit.  
This equipment complies with the limits for a Class B digital device as specified in Part 15 of FCC  
Rules. These limits provide reasonable protection against radio and TV interference in a residential  
area. However, your equipment might cause TV or radio interference even when it is operating  
properly. To eliminate interference you can try one or more of the following corrective measures:  
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna  
Increase the distance between the system and the radio or TV  
Use outlets on different electrical circuits for the equipment and the radio or TV  
Read the Troubleshooting section of this manual for directions on remedying the problem.  
Lightning  
Your Wireless Modem Jack System has built-in protection circuits to reduce the risk of damage from  
surges in the telephone line. These protection circuits meet or exceed the FCC requirements.  
However, lightning striking the telephone or power lines can damage your system. Lightning damage  
is not common. Nevertheless, if you live in an area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that  
you unplug the system during storms to reduce the possibility of damage.  
Important Notes On Operation  
Do not plug Modem Jacks into power strips or surge protectors.  
Modem Jack Extension does not operate during a power outage.  
Modem Jack System can only be used for single phone line.  
Be sure to plug Base unit (two jacks on side) in first before Extension unit (one jack on side).  
If you cannot get a dial tone, unplug both phone jacks and reset units following the section titled  
“Trouble Shooting”on page 8.  
It is very important that directions are followed in order. In the event of a problem unplug both units,  
remove all cords and start again.  
Industry Canada Equipment Notice  
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 Documents(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.
