4 important: ? cordless phones such as this one require ac power to operate. when the ac power is off, you cannot dial out or receive incoming calls using your ET-1102. to be safe, you should also have a phone that does not need ac power to operate (not a cordless phone) so you can still make and receive calls if there is an ac power failure. ? when ac power is lost, the ET-1102 loses the security access-protection code connection between the base and the handset. when power is re- stored, put the handset on the base briefly to restore this connection so you can use the handset. read this before installation we have designed your phone to con- form to federal regulations and you can connect it to most phone lines. however, each device that you connect to the tele- phone line draws power from the line. we refer to this power draw as the phones ringer equivalence number , or ren. the ren is on the bottom of your phone. if you use more than one phone or other device on the line, add up all the rens. if the total is more than five, your phones might not ring. in rural areas, a total ren of three might impair ringer opera- tion. if ringer operation is impaired, re- move one of the devices from the line. fcc statement your telephone complies with part 68 of fcc rules . you must, upon request, provide the fcc registration number and the ren to your phone company. these numbers are on the bottom of the base. you must not connect your phone to any of the following: ? coin-operated systems ? party-line systems ? most electronic key phone systems this equipment complies with the limits for a class b digital device as specified in part 15 of fcc rules . these limits provide reasonable protection against radio and tv interference in a residential area. however, your equipment might cause tv or radio interference even when it is operating properly. to elimi- nate interference, you can try one or more of the following corrective mea- sures. ? reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. ? increase the distance between the equipment and the radio or tv. ? use outlets on different electrical cir- cuits for the equipment and the ra- dio or tv. consult your local radio shack store if the problem still exists. 43-1102.fm page 4 tuesday, august 17, 1999 4:37 pm http:///
