Radio Shack 43-861 Owner's Manual

READ THIS FIRST

We have designed your telephone to conform to federal

regulations and you can connect it to most telephone

lines. However, each device you connect to the phone

line draws power from it. This power draw is the device’s

ringer equivalence number, or REN. The REN is on the

bottom of your phone.

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

(or three in rural areas) your phones might not ring. If

ringer operation is impaired, remove one of the devices

from the line. 

If your phone causes problems on the phone line, the

telephone company can disconnect your service. The

phone company tries to notify you in advance. If advance

notice is not practical, the telephone company notifies

you as soon as possible and advises you of your right to

file a complaint with the FCC.

The phone company can also make changes to its lines,

equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect

the phone’s operation. The phone company notifies you

in advance, so you can take the necessary steps to pre-

vent interruption of your phone service.

FCC STATEMENT

Your telephone complies with Part 68 of 

FCC Rules. You

must, upon request, provide the FCC registration num-

ber and the REN to your telephone company. Both num-

bers are on the bottom of your phone.

Note: You must not connect your telephone to:

• coin-operated systems

• party-line systems

• most electronic key phone systems

CARE

• Keep the phone dry.

• Handle the phone carefully. Do not drop it.

• Do not use or store the phone in temperature

extremes.

• Keep the phone away from dust and dirt.

• Do not modify or tamper with the phone’s internal com-

ponents. Doing so might invalidate the phone’s war-

ranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If

the phone is not operating as it should, take it to your

local RadioShack store for assistance. If the trouble is

harming the phone lines, the phone company might

ask you to disconnect the telephone until you fix the

problem.

Some states do not allow the limitations on how long an implied warranty

ucts, and products on which a refund is made, become the property of

RadioShack. New or reconditioned parts and products may be used in

the performance of warranty service. Repaired or replaced parts and

products are warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period.

You will be charged for repair or replacement of the product made after

the expiration of the warranty period.
