(continued) FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION (FCC) Part 68 STATEMENT

If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance that temporary dis- continuance of service may be required. If advance notice is not 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 necessary.

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

If trouble is experienced with this equipment, please contact the manufacturer for repair and warranty information. If the trou- ble is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may request you remove the equipment from the net- work until the problem is resolved.

There are no user serviceable components in this product, and all necessary repairs must be made by the manufacturer. Other repair methods may invalidate the FCC registration on this product.

This equipment cannot be used on telephone company-provided coin service. Connection to Party Line Service is subject to state tariffs.

This equipment is hearing-aid compatible.

When programming or making test calls to an emergency number, briefly explain to the dispatcher the reason for the call. Per- form such activities in the off-peak hours; such as early morning or late evening.

IN THE EVENT OF TELEPHONE OPERATIONAL PROBLEMS

If your security system has been connected to the telephone line, and there is trouble with regular telephone service, disconnect the security system from the telephone line by removing the plug from the RJ31X (CA38A in Canada) telephone wall jack (you should have been shown how to do this by your installing company). Do not attempt to disconnect the telephone

line connection inside the control cabinet. Doing so will result in the COMPLETE disruption of your regular telephone service.

If the regular phone works correctly after the plug has been disconnected from the RJ31X wall jack, the security system has a problem and you should call your service representative for service immediately. If, upon disconnection of the security system from the wall jack, there is still a problem with telephone service, notify the telephone company that they have a problem and request prompt repair service.

IMPORTANT: A security system connected to an alarm monitoring station relies on that connection.

¥If the security system is at fault, reinsert the plug as soon as the security system is repaired.

¥If the phone service is at fault, re-insert the plug immediately, to ensure resumption of full protection upon restoration of phone service.

The user may not, under any circumstances (in or out of warranty), attempt any service or repairs to the system.

The device is designed with a convenient low battery chirp, a feature that alerts users when it’s time to replace the batteries, thereby ensuring continuous protection.

The compact and sleek design of the FA120C allows it to blend seamlessly into various home decors. It is easy to mount, whether on a wall or ceiling, and comes with mounting hardware included in the package.
