Important Information:
• To use this Caller ID, you must be in an area where Caller
ID service is available, and you must subscribe to the service.
• Where Caller ID is offered, one or more of the following
options are generally available:
– caller’s number only
– caller’s name only
– caller’s name and number
Your Caller ID displays the caller’s name only if that option
is available in your area.
The actual number of Caller ID records your Caller ID will store
depends on the amount of Caller ID information sent by the
phone company.
FCC INFORMATION
We have designed your CID-932 to conform to federal regulations, and you can connect it to most telephone lines. However,
each device, such as a telephone or 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 nu mbe r, or REN. The REN is on the bottom of your
device.
4
43-932.fm Page 5 Wednesday, January 12, 2000 9:56 AM
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 (or three in rural
areas), your telephones might not ring. If ringer operation is impaired, re move a device from the line.
Your CID-932 complies with Part 68 of FCC Rules. You must,
upon request, provide the FCC registration number and the
REN to your telephone company. Both numbers are located on
the bottom of your CID-932.
Note:
You must not connect your CID-932 to:
• coin-operated systems
• party-line systems
• most electronic key telephone systems
Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities,
equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the proper functioning of your equipment. If they do, you will be notified
in advance to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted
telephone service.
This equipment complies with the limits for a Class B digital device as specified in Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits provide
reasonable protection against radio and TV interference in a
residential area.
5
43-932.fm Page 6 Wednesday, January 12, 2000 9:56 AM
However, your equipment might cause TV or radio interference
even when it is operating properly. To eliminate interference,
you can try one or more of the following corrective measures:
• reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• increase the dis tan ce between the e qui pm ent and the radio
or TV
• use outlets on different electrical circuits for the equipment
and the radio or TV
Consult your local Radio Shack store if the problem still exists.

PREPARATION
INSTALLING A BATTERY
You need one 9V battery (not supplied) to provide backup power for the CID-932’s memory in the event of a power failure. For
the best performance, we recommend an alk al ine bat tery , av ai lable at your local RadioShack store.
Cautions:
• Use only a fresh battery of the required size and recommended type.
• Always remove old or weak batteries. They can leak chemicals that can damage electronic circuits.
Follow these steps to install the battery.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW
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 t ele pho ne se rvic e.
LIGHTNING
Your telephone has built-in protection circuits to reduce the risk
of damage from surges in te lephon e line a nd po wer line c urrent.
These protection circuits meet or exceed the FCC requirements. However, lightning striking the telephone or power lines
can damage your telephone.
Lightning damage i s not com mon. Neverthel ess, i f you live in an
area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug your phone during storms to reduce the possibility of damage.
