FCC REQUIREMENTS FOR TELEPHONE-LINE EQUIPMENT  
1. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has established rules which permit this device to be  
directly connected to the telephone network with standardized jacks. This equipment should not be  
used on party lines or coin lines.  
2. If this device is malfunctioning, it may also be causing harm to the telephone network; this device  
should be disconnected until the source of the problem can be determined and until the repair has  
been made. If this is not done, the telephone company may temporarily disconnect service.  
3. If you have problems with your telephone equipment after installing this device, disconnect this device  
from the line to see if it is causing the problem. If it is, contact your supplier or an authorized agent.  
4. The telephone company may make changes in its technical operations and procedures. If any such  
changes affect the compatibility or use of this device, the telephone company is required to give  
adequate notice of the changes.  
5. If the telephone company requests information on what equipment is connected to their lines, inform  
them of:  
a. The telephone number that this unit is connected to.  
b. The ringer equivalence number.  
c. The USOC jack required: RJ-11C.  
d. The FCC registration number.

CDC STATEMENT  
Items (b) and (d) can be found on the unit’s FCC label. The ringer equivalence number (REN) is used  
to determine how many devices can be connected to your telephone line. In most areas, the sum of the  
RENs of all devices on any one line should not exceed five (5.0). If too many devices are attached, they  
may not ring properly.  
6. In the event of an equipment malfunction, all repairs should be performed by your supplier or an  
authorized agent. It is the responsibility of users requiring service to report the need for service to the  
supplier or to an authorized agent.  
CERTIFICATION NOTICE FOR EQUIPMENT USED IN CANADA  
The Canadian Department of Communications label identifies certified equipment. This certification means  
that the equipment meets certain telecommunications-network protective, operation, and safety  
requirements. 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. In some cases, the company’s inside wiring associated with a single-line individual service may be  
extended by means of a certified connector assembly (extension cord). 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 made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility—in this case,  
your 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.

Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric inspection authority,  
or electrician, as appropriate.  
The LOAD NUMBER (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the total load to be  
connected to a telephone loop which is used by the device, to prevent overloading. The termination on a

5.1 Problems and Solutions  
• Make sure the serial  
numbers on the bottom of  
the base unit and back of  
beltpack units match.  
Because of the security  
circuits, the beltpack and  
base must match for  
operation.

• You may be out of range.  
Move closer to the base.  
• Check to see that all cords  
and jacks are connected.  
If you hear a beeping noise:  
• Make sure that the Quick  
Disconnect connector is  
fully inserted into the  
remote.  
• If you hear a beep in your  
headset every 20 seconds,  
the battery may be low and  
needs to be recharged.  
Place the battery in the  
charger.  
If the other party has a hard time  
hearing you:  
• Make sure that the AC  
adapter is plugged in and  
has power.  
• Make sure the MUTE on  
the beltpack is off (an  
audible beep will be heard  
in the headset every five  
seconds if mute is on).  
- For the proper recharge,  
make sure that the recharge  
LED is lit when the beltpack  
is in the base.  
• Try the compatibility  
setting on A and G.  
• Make sure that the Headset  
button located on the top of  
the base is in the on mode  
and the 4 LED is lit.

charge, you might need to  
change the battery pack

Please properly dispose of  
the NiMH battery pack.  
• Re-adjust the transmit level  
as shown in Sections 5.2 and
