Place the Handset down gently. Save the original packing materials to protect
your telephone if you ever need to ship it.
Avoid water
Your telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not use the Handset outdoors
in the rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not install your Base Unit near
a sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic
equipment.
For your own safety, use caution when using electric appliances during storms.
Cleaning your telephone
Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for
many years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or
a mild soap. Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when
you are wet or standing in water. If your Base Unit should fall into water,
DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND
TELEPHONE LINE CORDS FROM THE WALL. Then pull the unit out by the
unplugged cords.

• Household appliances plugged into the same circuit as the Base Unit can
sometimes cause interference. Try moving the appliance or the Base Unit
to another outlet.

FCC and ACTA Regulations
Connection of Equipment to the Telephone Network adopted by the
Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments (ACTA). We are required
to provide you with the following information.
1. Product identifier and REN information
The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among other
things, an identifier indicating product approval and the Ringer Equivalence
Number (REN). This information must be provided to your local telephone
company upon request. For equipment approved prior to July 23, 2001, the
product identifier is preceded by the phrase “FCC Reg No.” and the REN is
listed separately. For equipment approved after that date, the product identifier
is preceded by “US” and a colon (:), and the REN is encoded in the product
identifier without a decimal point as the sixth and seventh characters following
the colon. For example, the product identifier US:AAAEQ03T123XYZ would
indicate an REN of 0.3.
The REN is used to determine how many devices you may connect to your
telephone line and still have them ring when you are called. In most, but not
all areas, the sum of all RENs should be five (5.0) or less. For more
information, please contact your local telephone company.
2. Connection and use with the nationwide telephone network
The plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring
and the telephone network must comply with the applicable Part 68 rules and
technical requirements adopted by ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and
modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected
to a compatible modular jack that is also compliant. An RJ11 jack should
normally be used for connecting to a single line and an RJ14 jack for two
lines. See Installation Instructions in this user’s manual. This equipment may
not be used with Coin Telephone Lines or with Party Lines. If you have specially
wired alarm dialing equipment connected to your telephone line, ensure the
connection of this equipment does not disable your alarm equipment. If you
have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your
telephone company or a qualified installer.
3. Repair instructions
If this equipment is malfunctioning, it must be unplugged from the modular
jack until the problem has been corrected. Repairs to this telephone
equipment can only be made by the manufacturer or its authorized agents.
For repair procedures, follow the instructions outlined under the Limited

procedures that could affect the proper functioning of this product. The
telephone company is required to notify you if such changes are planned.
5. Hearing aid compatibility
If this product is equipped with a corded or cordless Handset, it is hearing
aid compatible.
6. Programming/testing of emergency numbers
If this product has memory dialing locations, you may choose to store police,
fire department and emergency medical service telephone numbers in these
locations. If you do, please keep three things in mind:
a. We recommend that you also write the telephone number on the
directory card, so that you can still dial the emergency number manually
if the memory dialing feature doesn’t work.
b. This feature is provided only as a convenience, and the manufacturer
assumes no responsibility for customer reliance upon the memory
feature.
c. Testing the emergency telephone numbers you have stored is not
recommended.
However, if you do make a call to an emergency number:
• You must remain on the line and briefly explain the reason for the
call before hanging up.
• Programming/testing of emergency numbers should be performed
during off-peak hours, such as in the early morning or late evening,
when the emergency services tend to be less busy.

Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to
be connected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The
equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection.
The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions

Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the Supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may
give the telecom munications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground
connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water
pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be
particularly important in rural areas.
Caution: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves,
but should contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or electrician
as appropriate.
