Equipment Approval Information
Your telephone equipment is approved for connection to the Public Switched
Telephone Network and is in compliance with parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and
Regulations and the Technical Requirements for Telephone Terminal Equipment
published by ACTA.
1 Notification to the Local Telephone Company
On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other information, the US number
and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for the equipment. You must, upon request, provide this
information to your telephone company.
The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may connect to your
telephone line and still have all of these devices ring when your telephone number
is called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected
to one line should not exceed 5. To be certain of the number of devices you may
connect to your line as determined by the REN, you should contact your local
telephone company.
A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and
telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and
requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and modular
plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to a compatible
modular jack that is also compliant. See installation instructions for details.
Notes
• This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone
company.
• Party lines are subject to state tariffs, and therefore, you may not be able to use
your own telephone equipment if you are on a party line. Check with your local
telephone company.
• Notice must be given to the telephone company upon permanent disconnection of
your telephone from your line.
• If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line,
ensure the installation of this product does not disable your alarm equipment. If you
have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone
company or a qualified installer.
US Number is located on the cabinet bottom.
REN Number is located on the cabinet bottom.
2 Rights of the Telephone Company
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 service 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;
and (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 business and not inconsistent 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.
Interference Information
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference; and (2)
This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
Privacy of Communications may not be ensured when using this product.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna (that is, the antenna for radio or
television that is “receiving” the interference).
• Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the telecommunications
equipment and receiving antenna.
• Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiving antenna is connected.
If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult your dealer or an
experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. Also, the Federal
Communications Commission has prepared a helpful booklet, “How To Identify and
Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is available from the U.S.
Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Please specify stock number
004-000-00345-4 when ordering copies.
Notice: The changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Receiving CID Records
When you receive a call, the Caller ID information is transmitted between the
first and second ring. The Caller ID information appears on the display while
the phone rings, giving you a chance to monitor the information and decide
whether or not to answer the call.
Storing CID Records (In CID Memory)
If you are not at home or cannot answer, your telephone’s Caller ID memory
stores the data for the 50 most recent calls you received so you can see who
called while you were unavailable. When the 51st call is received, the oldest
Caller ID record (1st call) is automatically deleted.
You may review the stored information at any time. Calls received since your
last review show as NEW in the display. .
Reviewing CID Records
• Press either the 5 or 6 down button to view the newest call record.
• Press the 6 button to scroll through the call records from the most
recent to the oldest.
• Press the 5 button to scroll through the call records from the oldest to
the newest.
• When all of the messages have been viewed, START/END appears in the
display.
Deleting CID Records
• To delete the record showing in the display, press the delete button once.
• To delete all records while reviewing, press and hold the delete button
until ERASE ALL? shows in the display then press the delete button again
to confirm.
Dialing Back
When reviewing Caller ID records, you may dialback the phone numbers
shown on the display by pressing the dial button.
If you programmed your local area code in the setup menu
1. Use the 5 and 6 buttons to scroll to the number you want to dial.
• If you see a number with 7 digits (i.e. 555-1234), then the call was
received from within your area code. However, this does not guarantee
the call is a local call.
• If you see a number with 11 digits (i.e. 1-234-555-1234), then the call
received was not from your area code.
2. Press the dial button and the display shows PICKUP or ADJ. A 10 second
timer also starts in the upper right side of the display, letting you know
the time remaining until the unit returns to the display. If you adjust the
number to be dialed, the timer automatically resets itself.
3. To adjust the phone number, press the dial button. For instance, a 7-digit
local number sometimes cannot be dialed because it requires a 10-digit
or 11-digit format. Press the dial button repeatedly to scroll through the 7,
10, and 11-digit numbers.
7-digits: 7-digit telephone number (i.e. 555-5555)
10-digits: 3-digit area code + 7-digit telephone number (i.e.
425-555-5555)
11-digits: long distance code 1 + 3-digit area code + 7-digit
telephone number (i.e. 1-425-555-5555)
4. To dial the displayed number, pick up the handset before the timer
reaches 0. NOW DIALING shows in the display and the number is dialed.
If you did not program your local area code in the setup menu
1. Use the 5 and 6 buttons to display the number you want to dial. You will
only see 10-digit numbers (i.e. 234-555-1234).
2. See steps 2 through 4 in the above section to complete the dialback
sequence.
NOTE: IF PICKUP PHONE shows on the display, no other
changes to the number can be made. The information sent
from the telephone company is known to be a valid number to
dial back (available only in limited areas). Once you pickup the
phone, the number is automatically dialed.
