READ THIS FIRST
We have designed your telephone to conform to
federal regulations and you can connect it to most
telephone lines. However, each device you con-
nect to the phone line draws power from it. This
power draw is the device’s
Ringer Equivalence
Number, or REN. The REN is shown on the bot-
tom 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 (or three in rural areas) your
phones might not ring. If ringer operation is
impaired, remove a device from the line.
If your phone causes problems on the phone line,
the telephone company can disconnect your ser-
vice. The phone company tries to notify you in
advance. If advance notice is not practical, the
telephone company notifies you as soon as pos-
sible and advises you of your right to file a com-
plaint with the FCC.
The phone company can also make changes to
its lines, equipment, operations, or procedures
that could affect the phone’s operation. The
phone company notifies you in advance, so you
can take the necessary steps to prevent interrup-
tion of your phone service.
FCC STATEMENT
Your telephone complies with Part 68 of
FCC
Rules. You must, upon request, provide the FCC
registration number and the REN to your tele-
phone company. These numbers are shown on
the bottom of your phone.
Note: You must not connect your telephone to:
• Coin-operated systems
• Party-line systems
• Most electronic key phone systems
CARE
• Keep the phone dry.
• Handle the phone carefully. Do not drop it.
• Do not use or store the phone in temperature
extremes.
• Keep the phone away from dust and dirt.
• Do not modify or tamper with the phone’s inter-
nal components. Doing so might invalidate the
phone’s warranty and void your FCC authoriza-
tion to operate it. If the phone is not operating
as it should, take it to your local Radio Shack
store for assistance. If the trouble is harming
the phone lines, the phone company might ask
you to disconnect the telephone until you fix the
problem.
