Fcc Statement; Read This Before Installation - Radio Shack ET-545 Owner's Manual

43-1045.fm Page 4 Tuesday, August 17, 1999 10:58 AM
Your ET-545 operates on standard ra-
dio frequencies, as allocated by the
FCC. Therefore, it is possible for other
radio units operating on similar fre-
quencies, within a certain area, to in-
advertently intercept your conversa-
tions and/or cause interference on
your cordless telephone. This lack of
privacy can occur with any cordless
telephone.
READ THIS BEFORE
INSTALLATION
We have designed your telephone to
conform to federal regulations, and
you can connect it to most telephone
lines. However, each device that you
connect to the phone line draws pow-
er from the phone line. We refer to this
power draw as the device's ringer
equivalence number , or REN. The
REN is on the bottom of your phone's
base.
If you are using more than one phone
or other device on the line, add up all
the RENs. If the total is more than five,
your phone might not ring. In rural ar-
eas, a total REN of three might impair
ringer operation. If ringer operation is
impaired, remove a device from the
line.
