FCC INFORMATION
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules for the
United States. The telephone jack used on the CrystalTone Ringer
complies with FCC Part 68, Subpart F rules and regulations and is
an RJ11C. A label is located on the underside of the ringer
containing the FCC registration number and the Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN). You must, upon request, provide the
following information to your local telephone company: USOC
Jack Type: RJ11; REN: 1.0B.
The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices which may
be connected to the telephone line. Excessive RENs on the
telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to
an incoming call. In most areas, the sum of RENs should not
exceed five (5.0). For more information, contact the local
telephone company.

INDUSTRY CANADA WARNINGS
NOTICE: The Industry Canada Label identifies certified equipment.
This certification means that the equipment meets
telecommunications network protective, operational and safety
requirements as prescribed in the appropriate Terminal
Equipment Technical Requirements document(s). The
Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the
user's satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is
permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local
telecommunications company. The equipment must also be
installed using an acceptable method of connection. The customer
should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may
not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be coordinated by a
representative designated by the supplier. Any repairs or
alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment
malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to
request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical
ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and
internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected
together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural
areas.
CAUTION: Users should not attempt to make such connections
themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric inspection
authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
NOTICE: The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) assigned to each
terminal device provides an indication of the maximum number of
terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone interface. The
termination on an interface may consist of any combination of
devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the Ringer
Equivalence Number of all the devices does not exceed 5.

AVIS D'INDUSTRIE CANADA
AVIS: L'étiquette d'Industrie Canada identifie le matériel
homologué. Cette étiquette certifie que le matériel est conforme
aux normes de protection, d'exploitation et de sécurité des
réseaux de télécommunications, comme le prescrivent les
documents concernant les exigences techniques relatives au
matériel terminal. Le Ministère n'assure toutefois pas que le
matériel fonctionnera à la satisfaction de l'utilisateur.
Avant d'installer ce matériel, l'utilisateur doit s'assurer qu'il est
permis de le raccorder aux installations de l'entreprise locale de
télécommunication. Le matériel doit également être installé en
suivant une méthode acceptée de raccordement. L'abonné ne doit
pas oublier qu'il est possible que la comformité aux conditions
énoncées ci-dessus n'empêche pas la dégradation du service dans
certaines situations.
Les réparations de matériel homologué doivent être coordonnées
par un représentant désigné par le fournisseur. L'entreprise de
télécommunications peut demander á l'utitisateur de débrancher
un appareil à la suite de réparations ou de modifications
effectuées par l'utilisateur ou à cause de mauvais fonctionnement.
Pour sa propre protection, l'utilisateur doit s'assurer que tous les
fils de mise à la terre de la source d'énergie électrique, des lignes
téléphoniques et des canalisations d'eau métalliques, s'il y en a,
sont raccordés ensemble. Cette précaution est particulièrement
importante dans les régions rurales.
AVERTISSEMENT: L'utilisateur ne doit pas tenter de faire ces
raccordements lui-même; il doit avoir recours à un service
d'inspection des installations électriques, ou à un électricien,
selon le cas.
AVIS: L'indice d'équivalence de la sonnerie (IES) assigné à
chaque dispositif terminal indique le nombre maximal de
terminaux qui peuvent être raccordés à une interface. La
terminaison d'une interface téléphonique peut consister en une
combinaison de quelques dispositifs, à la seule condition que la
somme d'indices d'équivalence de la sonnerie de tous les
dispositifs n'excède pas 5.

OVERVIEW

The Ultratec CrystalTone Ringer lets you know when you receive a call.

telephone ring as carefree as possible. Slide the VOLUME control to the
right to increase the ring volume. This can be set as loud as 95 dB.
Depress the ON/OFF button to turn the ring volume on. Even with the
ringer turned off, the Ring Indicator lights when a call comes in. The
adjustable TONE ensures a clear ring at various frequencies. Slide the
TONE control to the right for a higher-pitched ring. You can even select
from four RING PATTERNS. Select the combination of RING PATTERN
and TONE that is right for you.
Step 1 - Selecting the Location
CAUTION! Do not plug the CrystalTone Ringer into any telephone
line other than a typical, analog telephone line. Connection to a digital
system may damage the ringer or the telephone system and will void your

nearby. Cords should not lie across any walkway. (b) The surface that the
ringer is set on, or mounted to, is stable and secure. (c) The area is
