chamois leather moistened with a light soapy water solution, then wipe off with a dry cloth. This will ensure that
your telephone stays looking as good as new.

RINGER EQUIVALENCE NUMBER (REN):
Your Icana 5250 has a Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) of 1.0 To determine the maximum number of telephone
that can be connected to your line, add together the individual RENs of all the apparatus you wish to connect. If this
total exceeds 4, one or all of your telephones may not ring correctly.
Never spray the phone with cleaning products or solvents.
We recommend periodical cleaning the charge terminals on the base and the handset with a dry, lint-free cloth.
