Important Information
This system has been tested and found to
comply with all applicable UL and FCC stan-
dards.
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 phone. For
this reason, the phone should not be your
only telephone. To be safe, you should also
have a phone that does not require AC pow-
er 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.
IMPORTANT CALLER ID
INFORMATION
To use the system’s Caller ID and Call Wait-
ing features, you must be in an area where
those services are available and you must
subscribe to those services through your lo-
cal phone company.
Where Caller ID is offered, one or more op-
tions are generally available:
• caller’s number only
• caller’s name only
• caller’s name and number
READ THIS BEFORE
INSTALLATION
We have designed your system to conform
to federal regulations, and you can connect it
to most telephone lines. However, each de-
vice that you connect to the phone line draws
power from the phone line. We refer to this
power draw as the device’s ringer equiva-
lence number, or REN. The REN is on the
bottom of the base.
If you are using more than one phone or oth-
er device on the line, add up all the RENs. If
the total is more than five (three in rural ar-
eas), your phones might not ring. If ringer op-
eration is impaired, remove a device from the
line.
