Your telephone equipment is registered with the Federal Communications Commission and is in compliance with parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.
1 Notification to the Local Telephone Company
On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other information, the FCC Registration 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 compan y.
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.
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 pur suant 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 of 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 uninter rupted 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, pur suant 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.
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 recei ving 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.

Make sure your package includes the items shown here.
MODULAR JACK REQUIREMENTS
You need an RJ11 type modular jack, which is the most common type of phone jack and might look like the one pictured here. If you dont have a modular jack, call your local phone company to find out how to get one installed.
INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR. If such interference continues, move the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR.

USING THE BASE UNIT SPEAKERPHONE
For best speakerphone performance, avoid the following:
Areas with high background
noise. (The microphone might pick up these sounds and prevent the speakerphone from going into the receiving mode when you finish talking.)
Surfaces affected by vibration.
Recessed areas such as in a
corner, under a cupboard, or next to a cabinet, which can generate an echo effect.
Note the following guidelines when you use the speakerphone.
The speakerphone works similar
to a one-way radio in that you can only listen or talk one at a time.
Stay reasonably close to the
phone so that you can be clearly heard by the person to whom you are speaking.
The SPEAKER indicator is on
when the speakerphone is in use.

USING INTERCOM WHILE YOU HAVE A TELEPHONE CALL
During a telephone call, you can use the Intercom Paging function to page the other unit and set up a private (2-way) intercom conversation with another user, meanwhile placing the telephone call on hold. Or, you can create a 3-way conversation between the telephone caller, the base unit, and the cordless handset. You can also transfer the telephone call to the opposite unit.
NOTE: Before intercom paging the other unit, you must decide whether you want to create a 2-way conversation or a 3-way conversation. To set up a 2-way conversation, your unit must be in Privacy mode when you intercom page the other unit in order for the external caller to remain on hold and be unable to hear the resulting intercom conversation.

CALLER ID OPERATION
This Caller ID telephone system receives and displays information transmitted by your local telephone company. This information can include the phone number, date and time; or the name, phone number, and date and time.
RECEIVING AND STORING CALL RECORDS
When you receive a call, the information is transmitted by the phone company to your Caller ID telephone between the first and second ring. The Caller ID information appears on the display for ten seconds while the phone rings, giving you a chance to monitor the information and decide whether or not to answer the ringing call.
If you are not at home or cannot answer, the telephone stores the information so that you can see who called while you were unavailable. Caller ID memory automatically stores the call number, date, time, phone number and name, for the last 40 calls. If Caller ID memory is full, a new call automatically replaces the oldest call in memory.
At any time, you can review the stored information for the last 40 calls. Any calls received since your last review are marked as NEW in the display, to remind you to review them.
