We have designed your phone to conform to federal regulations, and you can connect it to mo st tele phone 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 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 tot al is more than fiv e (three i n 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 telepho ne. The telephone compan y notifi es you of these changes in advance, so you can take the necessary steps to prevent interruption of your telephone service.

Lightning damage is not common. Nevertheless, if you live in an area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug your p hone when storm s approach to red uce the possibility of damage.

You can use your telephone as a desk phone, mount it on a standard wall plate, or mount it directly on a wall. Select a location that is near the telephone line jack(s).
To take full advantage of many of the phone’s features you must have three telephone lines with separate phone numbers. If you have only one phone line, you can order two additional lines from your local phone company.
Your phone comes with one long and one short two-line modular cords, and one long and one short single-line modular cords. The two-line cord has four pins inside the jack. The single-line cord has two pins inside the jack.
Your telephone connects directly to a modular telephone line jack. If your telephone wiring does not have a modular jack, you can update the wiring yourself using jacks and adapters (available at your loc al RadioSha ck store ), or have the telephone compan y upda te the w iring for you . You must use compatible modular jacks that are compliant with Part
FCC Rules.
68 of The USOC number of the single-line jack to be installed is
RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall plate jack ). The USOC num ber for a two-line jack is RJ14C (or RJ14W for a wall plate).
