FCC INFORMATION
We have designed your System 360 to conform to federal
regulations, and you can connect it to most telephone lines.
However, each Caller ID system (and each device, such as
a telephone or answering machine) that you connect to the
telephone line draws power from the line. We refer to this
power draw as the system’s
REN. The REN is shown on the bottom of the system.
If you use more than one telephone or other device on the
line, add up all of the RENs. If the total is more than five,
your telephone might not ring. In rural areas, a total REN of
three might impair ringer operation. If ringer operation is impaired, remove a device from the line.

Your system com plies with Part 68 of

Also, the phone company can make changes to its lines,
