Important Information
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.

Important Information
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.
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.
Privacy of Communications may not be ensured when using this product.
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

telephone wall jack. Your phone should be placed
on a level surface, such as a table top or desk.
2. Install 3 AA-size alkaline batteries (not included)
for back up power in the event of a power

• Use a screwdriver to loosen and lift up the
battery compartment door located on the
bottom of the phone.
• Insert the batteries as shown on the diagram
inside the battery compartment.
• Snap the battery compartment door back into
place and tighten the screw.
NOTE: If the low battery icon appears in the display,
you need to replace the batteries. It is important that
you replace them as soon as possible to maintain unit
operation when electrical power is off. As a precaution,
you may want to write down any stored information you
do not want erased.
IMPORTANT: If you are not going to use the telephone for
more than 30 days, remove the batteries because they can
leak and damage the unit.
3. Connect the AC power adaptor to an electrical

of the straight telephone line cord into the jack marked LINE 1+2 on
the back of the base. Plug the other end into the 2-line wall jack.
If you have two separate telephone line jacks, plug one telephone line
cord into the jack marked LINE 1+2 and another cord into the jack
marked LINE 2. Plug the other end of each line cord into separate wall
jacks.
NOTE: To use two line, you must have two telephone lines with unique telephone
numbers. If you only have one telephone line, this phone will still operate, but
only as a single line telephone.

Plug one end of the coiled handset cord into the side of the base and
the other end into the jack on the handset, and place the handset in
the cradle.
6. Check for a dial tone. Lift the handset and listen for a dial tone. If

Connections and Setup
Data Port
This phone has a DATA PORT jack to connect an auxiliary phone device,
such as a fax machine, computer modem, answering machine, or even
a cordless phone.
The DATA PORT switch on the back of the phone controls the DATA
PORT jack so you can choose line 1 or line 2.
Use the DATA PORT jack to hook up your fax machine, for example, and
then set the DATA PORT switch to 2 in order to receive faxes on the
phone number for line 2.
If you are talking to someone on line 2 and want them to fax something to you, change the DATA PORT switch to 1 and give him the
phone number for line 1. Your fax machine can now receive calls on
line 1.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to switch the fax machine back to the normal line when you
are done because outside callers who do not know that you have multiple lines
will not be able to reach your fax machine if they dial the normal fax line.
