READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLATION
We have designed your telephone to
conform to federal regulations and you
can connect it to most telephone lines.
However, each phone that you con-
nect to the telephone line draws power
from the line. We refer to the power
draw as the phone’s ringer equiva-
lence number (REN). The REN is
shown on the back of your phone.
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 phones might not ring. In rural ar-
eas, a total REN of three might impair
ringer operation. If ringer operation is
impaired, remove a device from the
line.

This telephone also complies with the
limits for a Class B device as specified
in Part 15 of

provide reasonable protection against

tial area. However, your telephone
might cause TV or radio interference
even when it is operating properly. To
determine whether your telephone is
causing the interference, turn off your
telephone. To eliminate interference,
you can try one or more of the follow-
ing corrective measures.
Reorient or relocate the radio or
TV’s receiving antenna.
Increase the distance between the
telephone and the radio or TV.
Consult your local Radio Shack store if
the problem still exists.
