2 Important Information

Important Information
This phone has been tested and found to
comply with all applicable UL and FCC
standards.
Important
Cordless phones such as this one require
AC power to operate. When the AC power is
off, you cannot dial out or receive incoming
calls using your phone. To be safe, you
should also have a phone that does not need
AC power to operate (not a cordless phone)
so you can still make and receive calls if
there is an AC power failure.
When AC power is lost, the phone loses the
security access-protection code connection
between the base and the handset. When
power is restored, put the handset on the
base briefly to restore this connection.
READ THIS BEFORE
INSTALLATION
We have designed your phone to conform to
federal regulations and you can connect it to
most phone lines. However, each device that
you connect to the telephone line draws
power from the line. We refer to this power
draw as the phone’s ringer equivalence
number, or REN. The REN is on the bottom
of your phone.
If you use more than one phone or other
device on the line, add up all the RENs. If the
total is more than five (three in rural areas),
your phones might not ring. If ringer
operation is impaired, remove one of the
devices from the line.
