INSTALLATION

We have designed your phone to conform to federal regulations and you can connect it to most phone lines. However, each device that you connect to the telephone line draws power from the line. We refer to this power

draw as the phone’s ringer equivalence num- ber, or REN. The REN is on the bottom of your phone.

If you use more than one phone or other de- vice on the line, add up all the RENs. If the total is more than five (three in rural areas), your phones might not ring. If ringer opera- tion is impaired, remove one of the devices from the line.

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.

When AC power is lost, the phone loses the security access-protection code con- nection between the base and the hand- set. When power is restored, put the handset on the base briefly to restore this connection.

FCC STATEMENT

Your telephone complies with Part 68 of FCC Rules. Upon request, you must provide the phone’s FCC registration number and REN to your telephone company. These numbers are on the bottom of the base.

Note: You must not connect your telephone to:

coin-operated systems

party-line systems

most electronic key phone systems
