this equipment not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s 
authority to operate this equipment. 
 
Note:  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 equipments 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. 
•  Increase the distance between the equipment and receiver. 
•  Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the 
•  Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

FCC Radiation Exposure Statement 
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated 
with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low 
power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices emit low 
levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. 
Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to 
low level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health 
effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such 
findings have not been confirmed by additional research. PC-TN10W has been tested 
and found to comply with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines 
on radio frequency energy (RF) exposure. The maximum SAR levels tested for the PC-
TN10W has been shown to be 0.560W/kg at Body. 
 
About the Modem 
This equipment complies with Part 68 of 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.  If requested, this information 
must be provided to the telephone company. 
The modem jack of this equipment complies with Sub-part F of Part 68 of FCC rules. 
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, but not all areas, the sum of the 
RENs should not exceed five (5.0).  To be certain of the number of devices that may be 
connected to the line, as determined by the total RENs contact the telephone company 
to determine the maximum REN for the calling areas. 
If the terminal equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone 
company will notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be 
required.  But if advance notice isn't practical, the telephone company will notify the 
customer as soon as possible.  Also, you will be advised of your right to file a 
complaint with the FCC if you believe it necessary. 
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or 
procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment.  If this happens, the 
telephone company will provide advance notice in order for you to make the necessary 
modifications in order to maintain uninterrupted service. 
If trouble is experienced with this equipment, please contact Sharp Electronics Corp.  
for repair and (or) warranty information (refer to the provided Consumer Limited 
ii  
 
Warranty sheet).  If the trouble is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone 
company may request you remove the equipment from the network until the problem is 
resolved. 
The equipment cannot be used on public coin service provided by the telephone 
company.  Connection to Party Line Service is subject to state tariffs.  (Contact the 
state public utility commission, public service commission or corporation commission 
for information.) 
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any person to 
use a computer or other electronic device, including fax machines, to send any message 
unless such message clearly contains in a margin at the top or bottom of each 
transmitted page or on the first page of the transmission, the date and time it is sent and 
an identification of the business or other entity, or other individual sending the message 
and the telephone number of the sending machine or such business, other entity, or 
individual.  (The telephone number provided may not be a 900 number or any other 
number for which charges exceed local or long-distance transmission charges.) To 
program this information, refer to the manual of the communication software.
