READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLATION We have designed your TAD to conform to federal regulations and you can connect it to most telephone lines. However, each device (such as a telephone or answering machine) that you connect to the telephone line draws power from the line. We refer to this power draw as the device's ringer equivalence number, or REN, The REN is shown on the bottom of the TAD's base. If you are using more than one telephone or other device on the line, add up all the REN's. if the total is more than five, the telephones might not ring and the answering machine might not answer. In rural areas, a total REN of three might impair ringer operation. (RLR/smc-05/18/94)
