2. Plug the large end of the smaller power adapter into an electrical outlet.
6. The bat­tery may have enough charge to allow you to make a short call. For best performance, place handset in the telephone base or charger to charge for at lease 16 hours before first use.
3. Plug the battery securely into the plug inside the handset battery compartment, match­ing the color-corded label.

NOTE: Caller ID features will work only if both

Names of callers will be displayed only if the information is provided by your local telephone company.
If the incoming telephone number exactly matches a telephone number in your directory, the name that appears on the screen will match the corresponding name
as you entered it into your directory.
For example, if Christine Smith calls, her name will appear as Chris if this is how
you entered it into your directory.
NOTE: The number shown by your caller ID will
be in the format sent by the phone company. The phone company usually delivers ten-digit phone numbers (area code plus phone number). If the telephone number of the person calling does not exactly match a number in your direc ­ tory, the name will appear as delivered by the phone company. For example if the phone com­ pany includes the area code and the directory number does not, the name will appear as deliv­ ered by the phone company.

I cannot dial out
My cordless handset isn’t performing normally
• First try all the suggestions above.
• Make sure you have a dial tone before dialing. The cordless handset may take a second or two to find the telephone base and produce a dial tone. This is normal. Wait an extra second before dialing.
• Make sure your phone is set to the correct dial mode for the type of service that you have (pulse or touch tone).
• If the other phones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in your 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 phone 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 the power cord is securely plugged into the telephone base. Plug the unit into a different, working electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch.
• Move the cordless handset closer to the telephone base. You might have moved out of range.
• Reset the telephone base. Unplug the unit’s electri­cal power. Wait for 15 seconds then plug it back in. Allow up to one minute for the cordless handset and telephone base to reset.
• Other electronic products can cause interference to your cordless phone. Try installing your phone as far away from these types of electronic devices as possible: wireless routers, radios, radio towers, pager towers, cell phones, intercoms, room monitors, tel­evisions, personal computers, kitchen appliances and other cordless phones.

I get noise, static, or weak signal even when I’m near the tel­ephone base
• Other cordless phones and 802.11 wireless routers that are used for home computer networks both use internal radios to communicate. The radios may interfere with one another. You can improve the performance of your cordless phones and your router by:
a. Positioning your new phone as far away as possible
from any other existing cordless telephone system that is already installed in your home to avoid the two systems from interfering with each other.
b. Positioning your telephone base as far as possible
from your router, computer or any other computer devices.
c. Selecting channels 4 through 10 for your router
(refer to your router’s user’s manual for more information).
• Other electronic products can cause interference to your cordless phone. Try installing your phone as far away from the following electronic devices as possible: wireless routers, radios, radio towers, pager towers, cell phones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, personal computers, kitchen appliances and other cordless phones.
• Microwaves operate on the same frequency as your phone. It is normal to experience static on your phone while the microwave oven is operating. Do not install this phone in the same outlet or near a microwave oven.
• If your phone is plugged in with a modem or a surge protector, plug the phone (or modem/surge protector) into a different location. If this solves the problem, re­locate your phone or modem farther apart from one another, or use a different surge protector.
• Relocate your phone to a higher location. The phone will likely have better reception when not installed in a low area.
• If the other phones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in your wiring or local service. Contact your local telephone company (charges may apply).

Especially about cordless telephones
Privacy: The same features that make a cordless phone con­venient create some limitations. Telephone calls are transmit­ted between the telephone 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 telephone base is unplugged or switched off, or if the electrical power is interrupted.

Important safety instructions
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-cad-
mium 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 prop-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.
Nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries: Dispose of
these batteries in a safe manner. 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 industry 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 900 MHz 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 pace-
maker.
• 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 pace-
maker.
WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from other persons using wireless phones.
