IMPORTANT NOTES

We have designed your telephone to conform to local regulations, and you can
connect it to most telephone lines. However, each device that you connect draws
power from the phone line. We refer to the power drawn as the device’s Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN or RN). This number is shown on the bottom of your
telephone. If you are using more than one phone or other device on the line,
add up all the REN’s. If the total is more than three, your phones may not ring.

NOTE: You must not connect your phone to any of the following:

• Coin operated systems

• Party-line systems

• Most electronic key phone systems
