Selecting a Mounting Location

Your telephone connects directly to a modular telephone line jack. If your telephone wiring does not have a modular ja ck, you can updat e the wiring yourself using jacks and adapters (available at your local RadioShac k store or online at www.radioshack.com), or have the telephone company update the wiring for you. You must use compatible modular jacks that are compliant with Part 68 of FCC Rules and the re quire ments ad opted by the ACTA. The telephone cor d and modula r plug provi ded

For single line phones:

The USOC number of the jack to be installe d is

RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall plate jack).

For 2 line phones:

The USOC number of the single-line jack to be installed is RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall plate jack). The USOC number for a two-line jack is RJ14C (or RJ14W for a wall plate).

Mounting and Connecting the Phone

To mount your phone on a wall plate, do the following:

1. Plug one end of the supplied short modular cord into the line jack at the back of the base.

Note: Coil any excess cord inside the compartment below the line jack at the back of the base.

Your phone complies with Part 68 of FCC Rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the back of this product is a label with this product’s FCC Product Identification number in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, you must provide this information to the telephone company.

Note: You must not connect your phone to:

• coin-operated systems

• most electronic key telephone systems

• party-line systems

Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission, public service commission, or corporation commission for information.

We have designed your phone to conform to federal regulations, and you can connect it to most telephone lines. However, each phone (and each device, such as an answering machine) that you connect to the telephone line draws power from the telephone line. We refer to this power draw as the device's ringer equivalence number, or REN on the bottom of your phone.

If you use more than one phone or other device on the line, add up all of the RENs. If the total is more than five (three in rural areas), your telephones might not ring. If ringer operation is impaired, remove a device from the line.

In the unlikely event that your phone causes problems on the phone line, the phone company can temporarily discontinue your service. If this happens, the phone company attempts to notify you in advance. If advance notice is not practical, the phone company notifies you as soon as possible and advises you of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

Also, the phone company can make changes to its lines, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of this telephone. The telephone company notifies you of these changes in advance, so you can take the necessary steps to prevent interruption of your telephone service.

Please follow instructions for repairing if any (e.g. battery replacement section); otherwise do not alternate or repair any parts of device except specified.

NOTICE: If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, ensure the installation of this phone does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.

This equipment is hearing aid compatible.

Lightning

Your telephone has built-in protection circuits to reduce the risk of damage from surges in telephone line and power line current. These protection circuits meet or exceed the FCC requirements. However, lightning striking the telephone or power lines can damage your telephone.

Lightning damage is not common. Nevertheless, if you live in an area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug your phone when storms approach to reduce the possibility of damage.
