Ringer Equivalence Number (REN):

This relates to the performance of the

apparatus when used in combination with

other items of apparatus. It enables the

calculation of the maximum number of

items of apparatus that may be

connected simultaneously to the line by

summing the REN values of each item. A

BT supplied instrument has a REN value

of 1 unless otherwise marked.

A maximum REN value of 4 should not

be exceeded. The REN value of this

apparatus is 1.

Method of connection

This is connected to the exchange line or

PABX/PMBX (Private Automatic/Manual

Branch Exchange) extension by the new

standard British Telecom plug and socket.

Arrangements for provision of this type of

termination can be made through the

nearest British Telecom Sales Office. The

apparatus may be connected to the

following types of installation. The

apparatus has been approved for use

under the following conditions:

a) This apparatus may be used on

telecommunication systems employing

LD and MF signalling. It is suitable for

connection to a direct exchange line

on the PSTN (Public Switched

Telephone Network) or via a

compatible PBX (Private Branch

Exchange). (Contact the supplier for

an up to date list of compatible PBX’s.)

b) This apparatus is not suitable as an

extension to a payphone or for use on

a party line with shared service.

KX-TCD961EB.1(2~22) 99.9.27 7:37 PM Page 2

This cordless telephone has been

designed to operate on radio frequencies

which have been assigned to the

exclusive use of cordless telephones. As

the use of cordless telephones becomes

more widespread users may experience a

reduction in the quality of service

obtainable from this apparatus.

Although this equipment can use either

loop disconnected or DTMF signalling,

only the performance of the DTMF

signalling is subject to regulatory

requirements for correct operation. It is

therefore strongly recommended that the

equipment is set to use DTMF signalling

for access to public or private emergency

services. DTMF signalling also provides

faster call set up.

999 or 112 can be dialled on the

apparatus for the purposes of making

outgoing calls to the BT Emergency (999

or 112) Service.

WARNING:

The apparatus may be unable to make

emergency 999 or 112 telephone calls,

under certain conditions, e.g.

• Radio interference caused by another

cordless telephone operating on the

same radio frequency.

• The portable handset battery needs

recharging, or has failed.

• The portable handset cannot be used

while charging.

Any cases of difficulty should be referred

in the first instance to the supplier of the

apparatus.

NOTE:

If you experience any problems with the

normal use of your apparatus, you should

unplug it from the telephone outlet and

connect a known working telephone in its

place. If the known working telephone still

gives problems, then please contact the

customer service department of your

PSTN operator. If it operates properly,

then the problem is likely to be a fault in

your apparatus. In this case, contact your

supplier for advice. Your PSTN operator

may charge you if they attend a service

call that is not due to apparatus supplied

by them.
