to collect and recycle these batteries at the end of their useful lives,

SERVICE REQUIREMENTS  
If the cordless telephone should malfunction, or need changes or modifications, all repairs will  
be performed by an authorized Toshiba Service Station. This unit has been registered with the  
FCC for direct connection to the telephone network. Under the FCC program, no customer is  
authorized to repair this unit. This applies to a unit both in and out of warranty. If an unauthorized  
repair is performed, the registration of the unit for direct connection to the network will be null  
and void. If the unit is still in warranty, the remainder of the warranty period will also be null and  
void.  
It is the responsibility of users requiring service to report the need for service to their Toshiba  
dealer.  
IMP ORTANT INSTRUCTIONS TO USERS  
Your SG-1700 has been designed and constructed to conform to federal regulations and can be  
connected to the phone line as described in this manual.  
Please note that each product connected to the telephone line places a certain load on the line.  
We designate this as the unit’s “Ringer Equivalence Number.”  
It is most unlikely, but . . . If your SG-1700 should cause problems on the phone line, the phone  
company has the right to temporarily discontinue your service. If this happens, the phone company  
will notify you and give you the opportunity to correct the problem. Also, you need to know that  
the phone company does have the right to make changes in their lines and/or equipment.  
If these changes might affect your SG-1700 (or require changes in the SG-1700 or its connection),  
the phone company will notify you in writing, so you will have the chance to take whatever action  
is necessary to ensure uninterrupted phone service.  
F CC REQUIREMENTS  
You are no longer required by the FCC to notify your local telephone company of your intent to  
connect a new telephone. Your local telephone company may call you and request information  
about your phone such as: the brand name, model number, registration number, and ringer  
equivalence number. This information is provided on a label located at the bottom of the base  
unit and handset.  
You may not directly connect your SG-1700 to coin telephone services. Check with your local  
telephone company if you wish to connect your SG-1700 to a party line service. Some party line  
services require a special adaptor or modification to your telephone.  
Finally, it should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause  
interference to nearby TVs and VCRs; to minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the  
cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR; and, if interference is  
experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce  
or eliminate the interference.
