This unit receives and displays information transmitted by your
local phone company. This information can include the phone
number, date, and time; or the name, phone number, date, and
time. The unit can store up to 40 calls for later review.

To use this phone, you need an RJ11C type
modular telephone jack, which might look
like the one pictured here, installed in
your home. If you don’t have a modular
jack, call your local phone company to
find out how to get one installed.

Your cordless phone uses a digital security system to provide
protection against false ringing, unauthorized access, and charges
to your phone line.

When you place the handset in the base, the unit verifies its
security code. After a power outage or battery replacement, you
should place the handset in the base for about 20 seconds to
reset the code.

Your Caller ID phone stores and displays specific information,
provided by your local telephone company, to subscribers of
Caller ID or similar caller identification services.

Your Caller ID phone enables you to:

• Identify callers before you answer the phone.

• View the time and date of each incoming call.

• Record up to 40 Caller ID messages sequentially.

• Know who called while you were away.

To get the most from your new phone, we suggest that you take
a few minutes right now to read through this user's guide.

ring when your telephone number is called. In most (but not all)
areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line
should not exceed 5. To be certain of the number of devices you
may connect to your line as determined by the REN, you should
contact your local telephone company.

A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises
wiring and telephone network must comply with the applicable
FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the 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. See installation instructions for details.

party line. Check with your local telephone company.

• Notice must be given to the telephone company upon permanent

disconnection of your telephone from your line.

• If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to
