READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLATION

We have designed your dialer to conform t o federal regulations,
and you can connect it to most telephone lines. However, each
device that you connect to the telephone line draws power from
the telephone line. We refer to this power draw as the device’s

ringer equivalency number

of your dialer.
If you use more than one telephone or other device on the line,

add up all the RENs. If the total is more than five, your tele­phone might not ring. In rural areas, a total REN of three might
impair ring er operation. I f ringer operat ion is impaired, remove a
device from the line.

, or REN. The REN is on the bottom

INSTALLING BATTERIES

Your dialer uses two AAA batteries (n ot supplied) f or power. For
the best performance and longest life, we recommend alkaline
batteries , such as RadioShack Cat. No. 23-55 5.

Cautions:

• Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recom­mended type.

• Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batter­ies (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or rechargeable
batteries of different capaciti es.

Note:

If you are replacing the batteries, disconnect the dialer’s
modular line cord from the telephone jack during the battery in­stallation process.

Follow these steps to install batteri es.

1. Use a screwdriver to remove the screw in the battery com­partment cover on the bottom of the system, then remove
the cover.

2. Put fresh batteries into the compart­ment as indicated by the polarity sym­bols (+ and –) marked inside.
