Standard telephone and FCC 
Notices
These notices are in effect on 
models sold and used in the 
United States only.

When programming emergency numbers 
or making test calls to emergency 
numbers:

■

Remain on the line and briefly explain to the 
dispatcher the reason for the call before 
hanging up.

■

Perform these activities in the off-peak hours, 
such as early morning or late evening.

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC 
rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. 
On the backside of this equipment is a label that 
contains, among other information, a product 
identifier in the format US: AAAEQ##TXXXX. If 
requested, this number must be provided to the 
telephone company.

You may safely connect this equipment to the 
telephone line by means of a standard modular 
jack, USOC RJ11C.

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.

The REN is used to determine the number of 
devices that may be connected to a telephone line. 
Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in 
the devices not ringing in response to an incoming 
call. In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs 
should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the 
number of devices that may be connected to a line, 
as determined by the total RENs, contact the local 
telephone company. For products approved after 
July 23, 2001, the REN for this product is part of 
the product identifier that has the format 
US:AAAEQ##TXXXX.The digits represented by 
## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 06 is 
a REN of 0.6). For earlier products, the REN is 
separately shown on the label.

If this equipment causes harm to the telephone 
network, the telephone company will notify you in 
advance that temporary discontinuance of service 
may be required. But if advance notice isn’t 
practical, the telephone company will notify the 
customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be 
advised of your right to file a complaint with the 
FCC if you believe it is necessary.

The telephone company may make changes in its 
facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that 
could affect the operation of the equipment. If this 
happens the telephone company will provide 
advance notice in order for you to make necessary 
modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.

If trouble is experienced with this equipment, for 
repair or warranty information, please contact 
Brother Customer Service. (See 

Brother numbers

on page i.) If the equipment is causing harm to the 
telephone network, the telephone company may 
request that you disconnect the equipment until 
the problem is resolved.

Connection to party line service is subject to state 
tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission, 
public service commission or corporation 
commission for information.

If your home has specially wired alarm equipment 
connected to the telephone line, ensure the 
installation of this equipment does not disable your 
alarm equipment. If you have questions about 
what will disable alarm equipment, call your 
telephone company or a qualified installer.
