important Notes:
0 Cordless phones such as this one
require AC power to operate.
When the AC power is oi'i, you
cannot dial out or receive incom-
ing calls using your ET-929. To be
sale, 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 cells it there is an AC pow—
er failure.
' Your phone operates on standard
radio frequencies as allocated by
the FCC. it is possible for other ra-
dio units operating nearby on sim-
ilar trequencies lo unintentionally
intercept your conversation or
cause interierence. This possible
lack of privacy can occur with any
cordless phone.
- When AC power is lost , the ET-
929 loses the security access-pro-
tection code connection between
the base and the handset. When
power is restored, put the handset
on the base brietly to restore this
connection so you can use the
handset.
We recommend you record your
phone’s serial number here. The
number is on the bottom of the
base.

READ THIS BEFORE
INSTALLATlON
We have designed your phone to con-
lorm to federal regulations. and you
can connect it to most telephone lines.
However, each device that you con~
neat to the phone line draws power
from the phone line. We refer to this
power draw as the device's ringer
equivalence number, or REN. The
HEN is on the bottom of the base.
If you are using more than one phone
or other device on the line, add up all
the RENst If the total is more than five,
your phones might not ring In rural ar-
eas, a total HEN of three might impair
ringer operation. It ringer operation is
impaired, remove a device trom the
line.
FCC STATEMENT

its for a Class B digital device as spec-
ified in Part 15 of FCC Rules. These

ence even when it is operating
properly To eliminate interferencev
you can try one or more ot the follow-
ing corrective measures:
