Connection and conditions for use

You can connect your iDECT K1 to a direct exchange line (DEL) — a line
connected to a local exchange, with its own phone number; to an
extension socket connected to a DEL; or to an extension on an approved
compatible PBX. Do not connect the iDECT K1 as an extension to a payphone. 
The

ringer equivalence numbers (RENs)

of all instruments (phones,

fax machines, etc.) connected to an exchange line

must not add up to

more than 4

— otherwise, one or more of them may not ring and/or

answer calls correctly. The iDECT K1 has a REN of 1, and most other
telephones have a REN of 1 unless marked otherwise.
