Information about caller ID with call waiting
This product has a caller ID function with call waiting
feature which works with service from your local telephone company.
Caller ID with call waiting lets you see the name and
telephone number of the caller before answering the
telephone, even while on another call.
It may be necessary to change your telephone service
to use this feature. Contact your telephone company
if:
• You have both caller ID and call waiting, but as
separate services (you may need combined
service).
• You have only caller ID service, or only call waiting
service.
• You do not have any caller ID or call waiting services.
This product can be used with regular caller ID
service, or this product’s other features can be used
without subscribing to either caller ID or combined
caller ID with call waiting service.
There are fees for caller ID services. In addition, services
may not be available in all areas.
Depending on your service, caller’s number, or the
caller’s name and number may be displayed. This
product can provide information only if both you and
the caller are in areas offering caller ID service, and if
both telephone companies use compatible equipment.
The time and date are sent by your local telephone
company along with the call information.

How caller ID works
If you subscribe to caller ID service provided by your
local telephone company, information about each
caller will be displayed between the first and second
ring.
Information about the last 50 incoming calls is stored
in the call log. You can review the call log to find
out who has called, return the call, or save the
caller’s name and number into the directory.
When the call log is full, the oldest entry is deleted
to make room for new incoming call information.
If a call is answered before the information appears
on the screen, it will not be saved in the call log.
NOTE: Caller ID features will work only if both you and the
caller are in areas offering caller ID service, and if both telephone
companies use compatible equipment.

About names
Names of callers will be displayed only if the information
is provided by your local telephone company.
If the telephone number of the caller matches
an exact number in your directory, the name that
appears on screen will match the name already in
the directory.
Example: If Christine Smith calls, her name will
appear as Chris if this is how it was entered in the
directory.
NOTE: The number shown in your caller ID will be in the format
sent by the telephone company. The telephone company usually
delivers ten-digit telephone numbers (area code plus telephone
number). If the telephone number of the person calling does not
exactly match a number in your directory, the name will appear as
delivered by the telephone company. For example if the telephone
company includes the area code and the directory number does
not, the name will appear as delivered by the telephone company.
Missed calls
When a handset is in idle mode with calls un-reviewed,
its screen will show XX MISSED CALLS.
Un-reviewed entries will be counted as missed calls
when the telephone is idle. Each time a call log entry
marked NEW is reviewed, the number of missed calls
decreases by one.
If there are too many missed calls and you don’t want
to review them one by one but still want to keep
them in the call log, press and hold OFF/CLEAR for
four seconds when the handset is idle. All reviewed
entries in the caller ID log will be considered old, and
the counter is reset to 0.
NOTE: XX MISSED CALLS will replace the handset number

at all.
• Make sure the battery is installed and charged correctly (see
page 7). For optimum daily performance, return the cordless
handset to the telephone base after use.
• Make sure the power adapter is securely plugged into an
outlet not controlled by a wall switch.
• Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the
telephone base and the modular wall jack.
• Unplug the telephone’s electrical power. Wait for approximately 15 seconds, then plug it back in. Allow up to one
minute for the cordless handset and base to synchronize.
• Charge the battery in the cordless handset for at least 16
hours.
• Remove and re-insert the battery. If that still does not work,
it may be necessary to purchase a new battery. Please refer
to the Battery installation & charging section of this user's
manual (page 7).
• Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone line wall
jack and plug in a working telephone. If this telephone does
not work, the problem is probably in the wiring or the local
service. Call the local telephone company.
There is no dial
tone.
• First, try all the above suggestions.
• Move the cordless handset closer to the telephone base. It
might be out of range.
• The telephone line cord might be malfunctioning. Try installing a new telephone line cord.
• Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone jack and
connect a different telephone. If there is no dial tone on the
telephone either, the problem is in your wiring or local service. Contact your local telephone company.

• Make sure there is a dial tone before dialing. It is normal if
the cordless handset takes a second or two to synchronize
with the telephone before producing a dial tone. Wait an
extra second before dialing.
• Check that all the telephones connected to the same telephone line are hung up.
• Makes sure the telephone is set to the correct dial mode
(pulse dial or tone dial) for the service in your area. Refer
to the Handset settings section of this user’s manual (page
16) to set the dial mode.
• If the other telephones in your home are having the same
problem, the problem is in the wiring or local service.
Contact your local telephone company (charges may apply).
• Eliminate any background noise. Noise from a television,
radio, or other appliances may cause the telephone to not
dial out properly. If you cannot eliminate the background
noise, first try muting the cordless handset before dialing,
or dialing from another room in your home with less background noise.
Make sure all the telephones connected to the telephone
line are hung up.

Important safety instructions
Especially about cordless telephones
• Privacy: The same features that make a cordless phone convenient create
some limitations. Telephone calls are transmitted between the base and the
handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that your cordless phone conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of
the cordless handset. For this reason, you should not think of cordless phone
conversations as being as private as those on corded phones.
• Electrical power: The telephone base of this cordless telephone must be
connected to a working electrical outlet. The electrical outlet should not be
controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the handset if the tel-
ephone base is unplugged or switched off, or if the electrical power is interrupted.
Power adapter: The power adapter is intended to be correctly oriented in a
vertical or floor mount position. The prongs are not designed to hold the plug
in place if it is plugged into a ceiling or an under-the-table/cabinet outlet.
• Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies
that may cause interference to TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such
interference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless telephone near
or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless
telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the
interference.
• Rechargeable batteries: This product contains either nickel-cadmium or nickel-
metal hydride rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in
order not to short the battery with conducting material such as rings, bracelets,
and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and cause harm. Observe
proper polarity between the battery and the battery charger.
• Nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries: Must be recycled or disposed of
properly. Do not dispose of in household garbage. Do not burn or puncture. Like
other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic
material which could cause injury.
The RBRC™ Seal means that the manufacturer is voluntarily participating in an indus-
try program to collect and recycle nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries when
taken out of service within the United States. These batteries may be taken to a participating
local retailer of replacement batteries or recycling center. Or you may call 1 (800) 8 BATTERY for
locations accepting spent nickel-cadmium Batteries.

Precautions for users of implanted cardiac pacemakers
Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital cordless telephones):
Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR), an independent research entity, led
a multidisciplinary evaluation of the interference between portable wireless
telephones and implanted cardiac pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration, WTR had recommended to physicians that:
Pacemaker patients
• Should keep wireless phones at least six inches from the pacemaker.
• Should NOT place wireless phones directly over the pacemaker, such as in a
breast pocket, when it is turned ON.
• Should use the wireless phone at the ear opposite the pacemaker.
WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from
other persons using wireless phones.
Especially about telephones answering systems
Two-way recording: This unit does not sound warning beeps to let the other

These requirements are intended to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
To ensure safety of users, the FCC has established criteria for the amount of radio
frequency energy that can be safely absorbed by a user or bystander according
to the intended usage of the product. This product has been tested and found to
comply with the FCC criteria. The handset may be safely held against the ear of
the user. The telephone base shall be installed and used such that parts of the
user’s body other than the hands are maintained at a distance of approximately 20
cm (8 inches) or more. If you choose to use a clipping device, please make sure to
only use the supplied AT&T belt clip.
