FCC REGISTRATION INFORMATION
Your telephone equipment is registered with the Federal Communications
Commission and is in compliance with parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and
Regulations.
1 Notification to the Local Telephone Company
On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other
information, the FCC Registration number and Ringer Equivalence Number
(REN) for the equipment. You must, upon request, provide this information to
your telephone company.
The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may connect to
your telephone line and still have all of these devices ring when your
telephone number is called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the RENs of
all devices connected to one line should not exceed 5. To be certain of the
number of devices you may connect to your line as determined by the REN, you
should contact your local telephone company.
Notes
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone
company.
Party lines are subject to state tariffs, and therefore, you may not be able to
use your own telephone equipment if you are on a party line. Check with
your local telephone company.
Notice must be given to the telephone company upon permanent
disconnection of your telephone from your line.
2 Rights of the Telephone Company
Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may harm the
telephone network, the telephone company shall, where practicable, notify
you that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. Where prior
notice is not practicable and the circumstances warrant such action, the
telephone company may temporarily discontinue service immediately. In case
of such temporary discontinuance, the telephone company must: (1) promptly
notify you of such temporary discontinuance; (2) afford you the opportunity to
correct the situation; and (3) inform you of your right to bring a complaint to
the Commission pursuant to procedures set forth in Subpart E of Part 68, FCC
Rules and Regulations.
The telephone company may make changes in its communications facilities,
equipment, operations or procedures where such action is required in the
operation of its business and not inconsistent with FCC Rules and Regulations.
If these changes are expected to affect the use or performance of your
telephone equipment, the telephone company must give you adequate notice, in
writing, to allow you to maintain uninterrupted service.
INTERFERENCE INFORMATION
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference; and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna (that is, the antenna for radio or
television that is “receiving” the interference).
Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the
telecommunications equipment and receiving antenna.
Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiving antenna is connected.
If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult your
dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional
suggestions. Also, the Federal Communications Commission has prepared a
helpful booklet, “How To Identify and Resolve Radio/TV Interference
Problems.This booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing Office,
Washington, D.C. 20402. Please specify stock number 004-000-00345-4 when
ordering copies.

basic safety instructions that should always be followed.
Refer to the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
provided with this product and save them for future
reference.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
PARTS CHECKLIST
Make sure your package includes the following items:
MODULAR JACK REQUIREMENTS
You need an RJ11 type modular phone jack, which is
the most common type of phone jack and might look
like the one pictured here. If you don’t have a
modular jack, call your local phone company to find
out how to get one installed.
INSTALLING THE BATTERY
In the event of a power loss, a 9-volt alkaline battery (not
included) enables the answerer to retain messages stored in
memory. To install the battery:
1. Remove the battery compartment door on the bottom of the
unit by loosening the screw with a Phillips screwdriver. Lift
the door.
2. Connect a fresh 9-volt alkaline battery (not included). The
large and small contacts on the battery clip and the battery
will interlock. Once connected, place the battery inside the
battery compartment.
3. Replace the battery compartment door and tighten the
screw.
NOTE: If the battery is low or not installed, the unit announces
Low Battery ” at the end of your messages.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION:
• Unplug phone cord from wall before installing or
charging batteries.
• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning
storm.
• Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals,
unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the
network interface.
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone
lines.
1. Plug the telephone line cord into a modular wall jack.
2. Connect the telephone line cord from your telephone into
the jack on the back of the answerer marked PHONE. (You
don’t have to connect your telephone in order for the
answerer to record incoming messages.)
3. Connect the small end of the power supply into the POWER
9V AC jack on the back of the answerer. Plug the other end
into an AC power outlet. The unit plays a long beep and
announces “please wait.After the pause, the unit beeps
again and is ready for setup or to answer calls with the
default greeting and settings.
CAUTION: Only use the ATLINKS USA, Inc. 5-2515
power supply that was packed with this unit. Using
other power supplies may damage the unit.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR MOVING THE
ANSWERER:
To move the answerer to a different location in the house,
follow these instructions:

4. Move the unit and phone line to the desired location.
5. Plug in the power supply into an electrical outlet.
6. Connect all necessary phone lines.

from the unit. Eliminate as much background noise as
possible.
1. Prepare your greeting.

answer the phone right now, so please leave your name,
number, and a brief message after the tone, and I’ll get back
to you. Thanks.
2. Hold down the GREETING button. After the tone, you have
30 seconds to record your greeting.
