We warrant that if the USR Call Director, distributed by U.S. Robotics Corpora-

tion and purchased by you, proves to be defective in material or workmanship, we

will provide without charge, for a period of 1 year (USA ONLY), the labor and parts

necessary to remedy any such defect. Warranty commences on the date of purchase

by the original retail consumer.

The duration of any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular

purpose, or otherwise, on this product shall be limited to the duration of the appli-

cable express warranty set fourth above. In no event shall we be liable for any loss,

inconvenience or damage whether direct, incidental, consequential or otherwise re-

sulting from breach of any express or implied warranty, of merchantability, fitness

for a particular purpose, or otherwise with respect to this product, except as set forth

some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential

To obtain service under this warranty, you must first request an RMA

thorized repairs or alterations performed by an unauthorized service center. This

warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which

vary from state to state.

FCC REGISTRATION

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. On the bottom of this

equipment is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC Registration

Number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. You must,

upon request, provide this information to your telephone company. The REN is used

to determine the number of devices you may connect to the telephone line and still

have all those devices ring when your telephone number is called. In most, but not all

areas, the sum of the REN’s of all devices connected to one line should not exceed

five (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 to deter-

mine the maximum REN for your calling area. If your telephone equipment causes

harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may discontinue your ser-

vice temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance. But if advance notice

is not practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will be informed of your

right to file a complaint with the FCC. Your telephone company may make changes

in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the proper

functioning of your equipment. If they do, you will be notified in advance to give

you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted telephone service. If you experience

trouble with the USR Call Director, please contact your retailer or U.S. Robotics

Corporation for information on obtaining service and repairs. The telephone com-

pany may ask that you disconnect this equipment from the network until the problem

has been corrected or until you are sure that the equipment is not malfunctioning.

This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company,

and is not intended for use with party line service. This equipment is intended for use

only on loop start service, and will not operate on a ground start central office line.
