READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLATION

Each device that you connect 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 REN 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 RENs. If the total is more than five (three in
rural areas), your phone might not ring. If ringer operation is im-
paired, remove a device from the line.
