cadmium batteries into the trash or municipal waste, which is illegal in some areas.
TACP’s payments to RBRCTM make it easy for you to drop off the spent battery at
local retailers of replacement nickel-cadmium batteries, or at authorized TACP product
service centers. You may also contact your local recycling center for information on

problem, always be sure to set the area code of your phone so that the phone
will automatically exclude the area code when the incoming code is the same
as that of the phone.

WARRANTY/SERVICE
SERVICE REQUIREMENTS
If the cordless telephone should malfunction, or need changes or modifications, all
repairs will be performed by an authorized Toshiba Service Station. This unit has been
registered with the FCC for direct connection to the telephone network. Under the
FCC program, no customer is authorized to repair this unit. This applies to units either
in or out of warranty. If an unauthorized repair is performed, the registration of the unit
for direct connection to the network will be null and void. If the unit is still in warranty,
the remainder of the warranty period will also be null and void.
It is the responsibility of users requiring service to report the need for service to the Toshiba
dealer.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS TO USERS
Your telephone equipment has been designed and constructed to conform to federal
regulations and can be connected to the phone line as described in this manual.
Please note that each product connected to the telephone line places a certain load
on the line. We designate this as the unit’s “Ringer Equivalence Number.”
It is most unlikely, but...If your telephone equipment should cause problems on the
phone line, the phone company has the right to temporarily discontinue your service. If
this happens, the phone company will notify you and give you the opportunity to
correct the problem. Also, you need to know that the phone company does have the
right to make changes in their lines and/or equipment.
If these changes might affect your telephone equipment (or require changes in the
telephone equipment or its connection), the phone company will notify you in writing,
so you have the chance to take whatever action necessary to ensure uninterrupted
phone service.
FCC REQUIREMENTS
You are no longer required by the FCC to notify your local telephone company of your
intent to connect a new telephone. Your local telephone company may call you and
request information about your phone such as: the brand name, model number,
registration number, and ringer equivalence number. This information is provided on a
label located at the bottom of the base unit and handset.
You may not directly connect your telephone equipment to coin telephone services.
Check with your local telephone company if you wish to connect your telephone
equipment to a party line service. Some party line services require a special adaptor
or modification to your telephone.
It should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may
cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs; to minimize or prevent such interference,
the base of the cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV or
VCR; and, if interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away
from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.
