THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW

In the unlikely event that your phone causes problems on the phone line, the phone company can temporarily discon- tinue your service. The phone company normally attempts to notify you in ad- vance. If advance notice is not practical, the phone company notifies you as soon as possible and advises you of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

Also, the phone company can make changes to its lines, equipment, opera- tions, or procedures that could affect the operation of this telephone. The phone company normally notifies you of these changes in advance, so you can take the necessary steps to prevent interruption of your phone service.

Your phone might cause TV or radio in- terference even when it is operating properly. To determine whether your phone is causing the interference, turn off and unplug your phone and discon- nect the handset battery. If the interfer- ence goes away, your phone is causing the interference.

Try to eliminate the interference by:

Moving your phone away from the receiver

Connecting your phone to an AC outlet that is on a different electrical circuit from the receiver

Contacting your local Radio Shack store for help

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your phone.

LIGHTNING

Your TAD-1010 has built-in protection circuits to reduce the risk of damage from surges in phone and power line current. These protection circuits meet or exceed FCC requirements. Howev- er, lightning striking the phone line or power lines can damage your phone.

Lightning damage is not common. Nev- ertheless, if you live in an area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug your phone during storms to reduce the possibility of dam- age.
