If required by the telephone company, inform them  
of the following.  
¡FCC Registration No.:  
(found on the bottom of the unit)  
¡Ringer Equivalence No.:  
alteration of such terminal equipment, or otherwise  
materially affect its use or performance, the  
customer shall be given adequate notice in writing,  
to allow the customer an opportunity to maintain  
uninterrupted service.  
(found on the bottom of the unit)  
¡The particular telephone line to which the  
equipment is connected.  
CAUTION:  
Any changes or modifications not expressly  
approved by the party responsible for compliance  
could void the user’s authority to operate this  
device.  
This unit must not be connected to a coin operated  
line. If you are on a party line, check with your  
local telephone company.  
When programming emergency numbers and/or  
making test calls to emergency numbers:  
1. Remain on the line and briefly explain to the  
dispatcher the reason for the call before  
hanging up.  
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN):  
This REN is useful in determining the quantity of  
devices you may connect to your telephone line  
and still have all of those devices ring when your  
telephone number is called. In most but not all  
areas, the sum of the REN’s of all devices  
connected to one line should not exceed five (5.0).  
To be certain of the number of devices you may  
connect to your line, as determined by the REN,  
you should contact your local telephone company  
to determine the maximum REN for your calling  
area.  
2. Perform such activities in the off-peak hours;  
such as early morning or late evenings.  
This telephone provides magnetic coupling to  
hearing aids.  
NOTE:  
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 interference 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 interference will not occur in a  
particular installation. If this equipment does cause  
harmful interference to radio or television  
reception, which can be determined by turning the  
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try  
to correct the interference by one or more of the  
following measures:  
In the event that terminal equipment causes harm  
to the telephone network, the telephone company  
should notify the customer, if possible, that service  
may be stopped. However, where prior notice is  
impractical, the company may temporarily cease  
service providing that they:  
a) Promptly notify the customer.  
b) Give the customer an opportunity to correct the  
problem with their equipment.  
c) Inform the customer of the right to bring a  
complaint to the Federal Communication  
Commission pursuant to procedures set out in  
FCC Rules and Regulations Subpart E of Part  
68.  
The Telephone Company may make changes in its  
communications facilities, equipment operations, or  
procedures where such action is reasonably  
required in the operation of its business and is not  
inconsistent with the rules and regulations in FCC  
Part 68. If such changes can be reasonably

—Increase the separation between the equipment  
and receiver.  
—Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit

not wish to pay out-of-warranty repair costs, you will be  
responsible for returning the replacement unit to Panasonic
