other cordless phones being used
nearby. If you experience this type
of interference, try changing
channels using the
CHANNEL
SEEKER button on the handset.
Transmission frequencies
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, the quality of service
obtained from this apparatus may
lessen.

Ringer Equivalence Number (REN)
Although you may have any
number of sockets, it is important
to limit the number of telephones
and other items of apparatus
connected to the line by those
sockets, to ensure that each
telephone will ring. Every
telephone or item of apparatus has
a Ringer Equivalence Number
(REN). In most cases a standard
line should provide enough current
for two or more telephones or items
of apparatus, if the RENs add up to
no more than 4.
Freestyle 1200 has a REN of 1. Any
telephone provided by BT may be
assumed to have a REN of 1 unless
otherwise stated on the base. Even
where the number of telephones
has been limited, there is no
guarantee that different types of
telephone on the same line will ring.
Safety advice
• Don’t use your Freestyle 1200 in
the open air during
thunderstorms. Unplug it from
the telephone line and the mains
socket when there are storms in
your area.
• Don’t use your Freestyle 1200
outdoors in the rain, or handle it
with wet hands.
