Safety information

Equipment Approval Information

Your telephone equipment is approved for connection to the Public Switched Telephone Network and is in

compliance with parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and Regulations and the Technical Requirements for Telephone

Terminal Equipment published by ACTA.

1. Notification to the Local Telephone Company

On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other information, the US number and Ringer

Equivalence Number (REN) for the equipment. You must, upon request, provide this information to your

telephone company.

The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may connect to your telephone line and still have

all of these devices ring when your telephone number is called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the RENs

of all devices connected to one line should not exceed 5. 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.

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. See installation instructions for details.

Notes

• This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company.

• Party lines are subject to state tariffs, and therefore, you may not be able to use your own telephone

equipment if you are on a party line. Check with your local telephone company.

• Notice must be given to the telephone company upon permanent disconnection of your telephone from

your line.

• If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, ensure the installation of

this product does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm

equipment, consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.

US Number is located on the cabinet bottom.

REN Number is located on the cabinet bottom.

2. Rights of the Telephone Company

Should your equipment cause trouble on y our line which may harm the telephone network, the telephone

company shall, where practicable, notify you that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. Where

prior notice is not practicable and the circumstances warrant such action, the telephone company may

temporarily discontinue service immediately. In case of such temporary discontinuance, the telephone

company must: (1) promptly notify you of such temporary discontinuance; (2) afford you the opportunity to

correct the situation; and (3) inform you of your right to bring a complaint to the Commission pursuant to

procedures set forth in Subpart E of Part 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.

The telephone company may make changes in its communications facilities, equipment, operations or

procedures where such action is required in the operation of its business and not inconsistent with FCC Rules

and Regulations. If these changes are expected to affect the use or performance of your telephone equipment,

the telephone company must give you adequate notice, in writing, to allow you to maintain uninterrupted

service.

Safety information

Interference Information

This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy which may interfere with residential radio and

television reception if not properly installed and used in accordance with instructions contained in this manual.

Reasonable protection against such interference is ensured, although there is no guarantee this will not occur in

a given installation. If interference is suspected and verified by switching this equipment on and off, the user is

encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Reorient the radio/

television receiver’s antenna, relocate the equipment with respect to the receiver, plug the equipment and

receiver into separate circuit outlets. The user may also wish to consult a qualified radio/television technician

for additional suggestions. This equipment has been fully tested and complies with all limits for Class B

computing devices pursuant to part 15 FCC Rules and Regulations. This device complies with RSS-210 of

Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause

interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired

operation of the device.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

(1) This device may not cause harmful interference; and (2) This device must accept any interference received,

including interference that may cause undesired operation.

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.

Privacy of Communications may not be ensured when using this product.

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:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna (that is, the antenna for radio or television that is “receiving” the

interference).

• Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the telecommunications equipment and receiving

antenna.

• Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the

receiving antenna is connected.

If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult your dealer or an experienced radio/

television technician for additional suggestions. Also, the Federal Communications Commission has prepared a

helpful booklet, “How To Identify and Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is available from

the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Please specify stock number 004-000-00345-4

when ordering copies.

Notice: The changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could

Connect

The location of your base station can have an effect on the range and performance of your ID937 (see TIP

below).

Connecting the Base Station

1. Place the base station in a central location near the telephone line socket and electricity sockets.

2. Connect the supplied splitter to the connector at the back of the base station and then plug the line cord

and the power cable into the respective line jacks on the splitter.

3. Connect the other end of the line cord to the telephone line socket and the other end of the power cable

to the electricity socket.

Line cord

Power supply

Splitter

The line adaptor may not be attached to the line cord. In this case, you have to connect the line

adaptor to the line cord first before plugging the line cord to the line socket.

TIP Avoid placing the base station too close to large metal objects such as filing cabinets, radiators or

electrical appliances. This can impair the range and sound quality. Buildings with thick internal and

external walls may impair transmission of signals to and from the base.

WARNING The base station does not have an ON/OFF switch. Power is applied when the power

adaptor is plugged into the unit and connected to the electricity socket. The only way to power

down the unit is to unplug the power adaptor from the electricity socket. Therefore, ensure that the

electricity socket is easily accessible.

The power adaptor and telephone line cord have to be connected correctly, as incorrect

connection could damage the unit.

Always use the telephone line cord supplied with the unit. Otherwise, you may not get a dial tone.
