2) IMPORTANT CALLER ID INFORMATION
To use the phone’s Caller ID and call waiting features, you must be in an area where
the services are available, and you must subscribe to the services. Where Caller ID is
offered, one or more of the following options are generally available:
a) Caller’s number only
b) Caller’s name only
c) Caller’s name and number
3) IMPORTANT NOTICE BEFORE INSTALLATION
Each device that you connect to the phone line draws power from the phone line.
This power draw is referred to as the device’s ringer equivalence number, or REN.
The REN for the B250D is located on the bottom of the telephone.
If you are using more than one phone or other devices on the same line, add up the
value of all the RENs. If the total is greater than five (three in rural areas), your phone
might not ring. If the ringer operation is impaired, the problem can often be rectified
by removing a device from the line to reduce the total REN to the number allowed.
