Important Caller ID Information
! IMPORTANT !
Cordless phones such as this one require AC power to operate. When the AC power is off, you cannot dial out or receive incoming calls using your phone. To be safe, you should also have a phone that does not need AC power to operate (not a cordless phone) so you can still make and receive calls if there is an AC power failure.
Ô NOTE Ô
If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, be sure that installing the system does not disable your alarm equipment.
If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, contact your telephone company or a qualified installer.
