We have designed your phone to conform to
federal regulations, and you can connect it to
most telephone lines. However, each device
you connect to the telephone line draws
power from the telephone line. We refer to
this power draw as the device's ringer equiv-
alence number, or REN on the bottom of
your phone.
If you use more than one phone or other de-
vice on the line, add up all of the RENs. If the
total is more than five (three in rural areas),
your telephones might not ring. If ringer oper-
ation is impaired, remove a device 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 re-
ceive incoming calls using your cordless
phone. For this reason, a cordless phone
should not be your only telephone. To be
safe, you should also have a phone that
does not require AC power to operate (not a
cordless phone) so you can still make and
receive calls if there is an AC power failure.
Some cordless phones operate at frequen-
cies that might cause interference to nearby
TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such
interference, the base of the cordless phone
should not be placed near or on top of a TV
or VCR.
Your telephone operates on standard radio
frequencies as allocated by the FCC. Even
though the access protection code prevents
unauthorized use of your phone line, it is
possible for other radio units operating on
similar frequencies within a certain area to
unintentionally intercept your conversations
and/or cause interference. This lack of priva-
cy can occur with any cordless phone.
FCC STATEMENT
Your phone complies with Part 68 of
FCC
Rules
. You must, upon request, provide the
FCC registration number and the REN to
your telephone company. Both numbers are
the bottom of your phone.
Note:
You must not connect your phone to:
coin-operated systems
party-line systems
most electronic key telephone systems
