Your Radio Shack TAD-346 Telephone Answering System is perfect for your
home or office.  The system's digitally synthesized voice gives you
operation instructions and the voice stamp tells you when the system
received a call or message.  The system's voice-mail feature lets you
leave a private message for people who know the voice-mail code.

READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLATION

We have designed your answering system to conform to federal regulations,
and you can connect it to most telephone lines.  However, each answering
system (and each, device, such as a telephone or answering machine) you
connect to the telephone line draws power from the line.  We refer to this
power draw as the device's RINGER EQUIVALENCE NUMBER (REN).  The REN is on
the bottom of the answering system.

If you use more than one device on the line, add up all the RENs. If the
total is more than five, your telephones might not ring and your answering
machine might not answer.  In rural areas, a total REN of three might
impair ringer operation.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle
is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated dangerous
voltage within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude
to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert
the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance
(servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
