The CE mark is affixed to this product to confirm compliance with the following European Community
Directives:
• Council Directive 89/336/EEC of 3 May 1989 on the approximation of the laws of Member States
relating to electromagnetic compatibility;
and

International Modem Restrictions
Some dialing and answering defaults and restrictions may vary for international modems. Changing
settings may cause a modem to become non-compliant with national telecom requirements in specific
countries. Also note that some software packages may have features or lack restrictions that may cause
the modem to become non-compliant.
New Zealand Telecom Warning Notice
1. The grant of a Telepermit for any item of terminal equipment indicates only that Telecom has
accepted that the item complies with minimum conditions for connection to its network. It
indicates no endorsement of the product by Telecom, nor does it provide any sort of warranty.
Above all, it provides no assurance that any item will work correctly in all respects with another
item of Telepermitted equipment of a different make or model, nor does it imply that any product
is compatible with all of Telecom’s network services.
This equipment is not capable under all operating conditions of correct operation at the higher
speed which it is designated. 33.6 kbps and 56 kbps connections are likely to be restricted to
lower bit rates when connected to some PSTN implementations. Telecom will accept no
responsibility should difficulties arise in such circumstances.
2. Immediately disconnect this equipment should it become physically damaged, and arrange for its
disposal or repair.
3. This modem shall not be used in any manner which could constitute a nuisance to other Telecom
customers.
4. This device is equipped with pulse dialing, while the Telecom standard is DTMF tone dialing.
There is no guarantee that Telecom lines will always continue to support pulse dialing.
Use of pulse dialing, when this equipment is connected to the same line as other equipment, may
give rise to ‘bell tinkle’ or noise and may also cause a false answer condition. Should such
problems occur, the user should not contact the Telecom Faults Service.
The preferred method of dialing is to use DTMF tones, as this is faster than pulse (decadic)
dialing and is readily available on almost all New Zealand telephone exchanges.
5. Warning Notice: No ‘111’ or other calls can be made from this device during a mains power
failure.
6. This equipment may not provide for the effective hand-over of a call to another device connected
to the same line.
