WARNING:
Some telephone equipment generates and uses radio
frequency energy and if not installed and used properly,
that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions, may cause interference to radio and
television reception. These telephones have been type

designed to provide reasonable protection against such
interference in a residential installation.

INFORMATION
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment on and off, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more
of the following measures:
Your new Lucent Technologies telephone has been registered
with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). This
product complies with standards in Part 68 of the FCC rules.
The FCC requires us to provide you with the following
information:
• Reorient the receiving television or radio antennae
where this may be done safely.
• To the extent possible, relocate the receiver with
respect to the telephone equipment.
• Where the telephone equipment requires ac power,

NATIONWIDE TELEPHONE NETWORK
The FCC requires that you connect your telephone equipment
to the nationwide telephone network through a modular
telephone outlet or jack. The modular telephone outlet or jack
to which the telephone must be connected is a USOC RJ11C
