READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLATION

Your telephone conforms to federal regulations, and you can connect it to most telephone lines. However, each device you connect to the phone line draws power from the phone line. We refer to this power draw as the de- vice’s ringer equivalence number, or REN. The REN is on the label on the phone base’s back.

If you are using more than one phone or other device on the line, add up all the RENs. If the total is more than five, your phone might not ring. In ru- ral areas, a total REN of three might impair ringer operation. If ringer op- eration is impaired, remove a device from the line

Important: Cordless phones such as this one require AC power to operate. When AC power is off, you cannot dial out or receive incoming calls us- ing your ET-905. For this reason, the ET-905 should not be your only tele- phone. To be safe, you should also have a phone that draws its power from the telephone line (not a cord- less phone) so you can still make and receive calls if there is an AC power failure.
