EQUIPMENT APPROVAL INFORMATION
Your telephone equipment is approved for connection to the Public Switched
Telephone Network and is in compliance with parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and
Regulations and the Technical Requirements for Telephone Terminal Equipment
published by ACTA.
1 Notification to the Local Telephone Company
On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other
information, the US number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for
the equipment. You must, upon request, provide this information to your
telephone company.
The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may connect to
your telephone line and still have all of these devices ring when your
telephone number is called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the RENs
of all devices connected to one line should not exceed 5. To be certain of the
number of devices you may connect to your line as determined by the REN,
you should contact your local telephone company.
A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and
telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and
requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and
modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to
a compatible modular jack that is also compliant. See installation instructions
for details.
Notes
• This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the
telephone company.

disconnection of your telephone from your line.
• If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the

equipment, consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.
2 Rights of the Telephone Company
Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may harm the
telephone network, the telephone company shall, where practicable,
notify you that temporary discontinuance of service may be required.
Where prior notice is not practicable and the circumstances warrant such
action, the telephone company may temporarily discontinue service
immediately. In case of such temporary discontinuance, the telephone
company must: (1) promptly notify you of such temporary discontinuance;
(2) afford you the opportunity to correct the situation; and (3) inform you of
your right to bring a complaint to the Commission pursuant to procedures
set forth in Subpart E of Part 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.
The telephone company may make changes in its communications
facilities, equipment, operations or procedures where such action is
required in the operation of its business and not inconsistent with FCC
Rules and Regulations. If these changes are expected to affect the use or
performance of your telephone equipment, the telephone company must
give you adequate notice, in writing, to allow you to maintain
uninterrupted service.

INTERFERENCE INFORMATION
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference; and (2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
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 equipment 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 (that is, the antenna for radio or
television that is “receiving” the interference).
• Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the
telecommunications equipment and receiving antenna.
• Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiving antenna is connected.
If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult your
dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional
suggestions. Also, the Federal Communications Commission has prepared a
helpful booklet, “How To Identify and Resolve Radio/TV Interference
Problems.” This booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing
Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Please specify stock number 004-000-00345-
4 when ordering copies.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN
PARTS CHECKLIST
Make sure your package includes the following items:
VERY IMPORTANT: You must call your local phone company and tell the
representative that you have a Caller ID/Call Waiting device that integrates
the two services (called Type II Caller ID). Some phone companies aren't
equipped to integrate the two services, which means only the Caller ID part of
your unit will work. The phone companies that do have the ability to integrate
Call Waiting and Caller ID must program your telephone line so the two
services work together. You need to call and ask them to do this.
CAUTION: When using telephone equipment, there are basic safety
instructions that should always be followed. Refer to the IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS provided with this product and save them for
future reference.

most common type of phone jack and might look
like the one pictured here. If you don’t have a
modular jack, call your local phone company to find
out how to get one installed.
INSTALLING THE BATTERIES
Your Caller ID uses 3 AA-size alkaline batteries (not included) for receiving
and storing Caller ID records.
IMPORTANT: You have approximately 60 seconds to replace the batteries
before the call records are lost. Please read the instructions before replacing
the batteries and have them ready to be inserted beforehand. You may want to
write down any stored information you do not want erased.

modular wall jack. If a phone is connected to the
unit, disconnect it from the unit.
2. Use a screwdriver or other flat tool to open the
battery compartment door.
3. Insert 3 AA-size alkaline batteries (not included)
as shown on the diagram in the battery
compartment.
4. Replace the battery compartment door securely.

NOTE: If the low battery icon appears in the display, you need to
replace the batteries. It is important that you replace the batteries as soon as
