OPERATION
Important Notice
Your CONAIRPHONE

will operate on all systems, true
tone or rotary.
1. If your home is wired for rotary service, move the
TONE/PULSE switch to PULSE position.
2. If your home is wired for Tone service, move the switch
to the TONE position.

Dialing a Call
Pick up phone, wait for a dial tone, then press the keys
for the number you want to dial. Your CONAIRPHONE
TM
will generate true tone sounds only on tone setting. On
pulse setting, electronic pulses are used to simulate
rotary dialing. Because of this, you may hear pulsing for
a second or two after the last key has been pressed.
Note: Your CONAIRPHONE
TM
features a lighted dial for
dialing in a darkened room.

continuously busy. Press the hook switch to get a dial
tone followed by pressing the REDIAL. Your call will be
automatically dialed.

TM
features a harmonic dual tone
ringer which can be adjusted to a loud (HI) or soft (LO)
sound level. When you don’t want to be disturbed, slide
switch to the “OFF” position. Now you can still make
outgoing calls without being disturbed by incoming calls.
Receiver Volume Control
The receiver volume control is located on the side of
your handset. This enables you to adjust the receiver
volume on your telephone handset from normal to high
for a more comfortable listening level.

another party on the phone.
Press and hold the MUTE as long as you want this
feature activated.

FCC and Telephone Company Requirements
Your telephone company is required by the Federal
Communications Commission to allow you to connect
FCC registered telephones to their lines. The FCC
requires you to provide information, if requested by the
local telephone company, about the connection of an
FCC registered telephone to their lines. They may ask
you for the FCC registration number and the ringer
equivalence number (REN); both are on the bottom of
the base. They may also ask for the Universal Service
Order Code (USOC), which is RJ-11C.
The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices
which may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive
REN’s on the telephone line may result in the devices
not ringing in response to an incoming call, in most, but
not all areas, the sum of the REN’s should not exceed
five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that
may be connected to the line, as determined by the total
REN’s, contact the telephone company to determine the
maximum REN for the calling area.
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 ser vice
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; (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 businesses and not in consistent 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.
