Important Caller ID Information
To use the phone's Caller ID and Caller ID with Call Waiting features, you
must be in an area where those services are available and you must
subscribe to those services through your local phone company.
Where Caller ID is offered, one or more options are generally available:
Caller's number only.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or shock hazard, do not expose this
product to rain or moisture.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover or
back. No user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to
qualified personnel.
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-683. 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-683 loses the security access
protection code connection between the base and the handset.
When power is restored, 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 conform to federal regulations and you can
connect it to most phone lines. However each device that you connect to
the telephone line draws power from the line. We refer to this power draw
as the phone's 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 operation. If ringer
operation is impaired, remove one of the devices from the line.
FCC Statement

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 eliminate interference, you can try one or more
of the following corrective measures.
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
