and storing Caller ID records and for storing the numbers you use for  
memory dialing, pulse dialing, redial, and predial functionality.  
There are two possible connections.  
• Surfaces affected by vibration.  
Refer to Figure 1 at beginning of Installation section if you have  
one single line (RJ11C) phone jack or one dual-line (RJ14C) phone  
jack.  
• Recessed areas such as in a corner, under a cupboard, or next to a  
cabinet, which can generate an echo effect.  
Notice: The changes or modifications not expressly approved by the  
party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to  
operate the equipment.

can only listen or talk at one time.  
NOTE: The number of new calls is displayed until all new calls have  
been reviewed.  
This telephone system meets FCC standards for Hearing Aid  
Compatibility.  
Your telephone equipment is approved for connection to the Public  
Switched Telephone Network and is in compliance with parts 15 and  
68, FCC Rules and Regulations and the Technical Requirements for  
Telephone Terminal Equipment published by ACTA.  
NOTE: If you connect the telephone line cord to the single-line  
(RJ11C) wall phone jack, you will only be able to use one telephone  
line (either Line 1 or Line 2) but not both lines simultaneously.  
• Stay reasonably close to the phone so that you can be clearly  
heard by the person to whom you are talking.  
4. If the line cord was previously  
connected, re-attach it to the unit  
and check your memory locations.  
Receiving and Storing Calls  
Licensing  
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 75 calls for later review. When the memory is full,  
a new call automatically replaces the oldest call in memory. NEW  
appears in the display for calls received that have not been reviewed.  
Refer to Figure 2 at beginning of Installation section if you have  
two single-line (RJ11C) phone jacks.  
• You can adjust the speaker volume by pressing the volume button

1. Notification to the Local Telephone Company  
Licensed under US Patent 6,427,009.  
NOTE: If the low battery icon appears in the display, you need to  
replace the batteries. It is important that you replace the batteries  
as soon as possible in order to maintain Caller ID operation.  
On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among  
other information, the US number and Ringer Equivalence  
Number (REN) for the equipment. You must, upon request, provide  
this information to your telephone company.

jack marked Line 2 on the back of the base.  
IMPORTANT: If you are not going to use the telephone for  
more than 30 days, remove the batteries because they may  
leak and damage the unit.  
NOTE: Batteries must be installed for the speakerphone to operate.  
The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may  
connect to your telephone line and still have all of these devices  
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.
