Information about Caller ID with Call Waiting
This product has a Caller ID with Call Waiting feature that works with services from your local telephone service pro­vider.
Caller ID with Call Waiting lets you see the name of the caller before you answer the telephone, even when you’re on another call.
You may need to change your phone service to use this feature. Contact your telephone service provider 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 don’t subscribe to any Caller ID or Call Waiting ser­vices.
You can use this product with regular Caller ID service, or you can use this product’s other features without subscrib­ing to either Caller ID or combined Caller ID with Call Waiting service.
There are fees for Caller ID services, but these may not be available in all areas.
Depending on your service subscription, you may see the caller’s num­ber, or the caller’s name and number. 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 the service provider along with the call information.

About caller identification (CID)
The Caller ID with Call Waiting features in this telephone let you see who’s calling before you answer the phone, even when you’re on another call. These fea­tures require services provided by your local telephone company.
Contact your telephone service provider 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, or
• you do not subscribe to any Caller ID or Call Waiting ser­vices but wish to try them now.
You can use this telephone with regular Caller ID service, and you can use its other features without subscribing to either Caller ID or combined Caller ID with Call Waiting service. There may be fees for these services, and these ser­vices may not be available in all areas.
The 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.
Telephone operating range
This cordless telephone operates with the maximum power allowed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Even so, this handset and telephone base can communicate over only a certain distance — which can vary with the locations of the telephone base and handset, the weather, and the layout of your home or office.
If there is a call while the handset is out of range, it might
not ring — or if it does ring, the call might not connect well when you press /PHONE/FLASH. M o ve closer to the telephone base, then press /PHONE/FLASH to answer the call.
If the handset moves out of range during a telephone con­versation, there might be interfer-
ence. To improve reception, move closer to the base.
If you move out of range with­out pressing /OFF/CANCEL, the
telephone will be disconnected after five seconds.

Troubleshooting
I cannot dial out.
There is noise or interference during a tele­phone conver­sation.
My calls fade out or cut in and out when I am using the cordless hand­set.
• 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.
• 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.
• The handset may be out of range. Move it closer to the telephone base.
• Appliances or other cordless telephones plugged into the same cir­cuit as the telephone base can cause interference. Try moving the appliances or telephone base to another outlet.
• Other electronic products can cause interference to your cordless telephone. Try installing your telephone as far away as possible from the following electronic devices: wireless routers, radios, radio tow­ers, pager towers, cellular telephones, digital telephones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, VCRs, personal computers, kitchen appli­ances, and other cordless telephones.
• Microwave ovens operate on the same frequency as your telephone. It is normal to experience static on your telephone while the micro­wave oven is operating. Do not install this telephone in the same out­let or near a microwave oven.
• If your telephone is plugged in with a modem or a surge protector, plug the telephone (or modem/surge protector) into a different loca­tion. If this solves the problem, re-locate your telephone or modem farther apart from each other, or use a different surge protector.
• The layout of your home or office might be limiting the operating range. Trying moving the base to another location, preferably a higher location for better reception.
• Disconnect the telephone base from the modular jack and plug in a corded telephone. If calls are still not clear, the problem is probably in the wiring or local service. Contact your local service company (charges may apply).
• Do you have DSL service? If yes, you need to have a DSL filter installed at every telephone jack that has a telephone connected to it. Contact your DSL service provider for filter information.

Troubleshooting
I hear other calls when using the telephone.
I hear noise in the cord­less handset, and none of the keys or buttons work.
My Caller ID features are not working properly.
The system does not receive Caller ID or the sys­tem does not display Caller ID during Call Waiting.
• Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone jack. Plug in a dif­ferent telephone. If you still hear other calls, the problem is probably in the wiring or local service. Call your local telephone company.
• Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged in securely.
• Caller ID is a subscription service. You must subscribe to this service from your local telephone company for this feature to work on your telephone.
• The caller may not be calling from an area which supports Caller ID.
• Both you and the caller’s telephone companies must use equipment which are compatible with Caller ID service.
• If you subscribe to DSL service, install a noise filter to the telephone line between the telephone base and the telephone line jack. Contact your DSL service provider for filter information.
• Make sure you subscribe to Caller ID with Call Waiting features ser­vices provided by the local telephone company.
• The caller may not be calling from an area which supports Caller ID.
• Both you and the caller’s telephone companies must use equipment which are compatible with Caller ID service.
• If you subscribe to DSL service, install a noise filter to the telephone line between the telephone base and the telephone line jack. Contact your DSL service provider for filter information.
The answer­ing system does not answer after the correct number of rings.
• Make sure the answering system is on. When the answering system is on, the red light on the ANSWER ON/OFF key should be lit.
• If Toll Saver is activated, the number of rings changes to two when there are new messages waiting (see page 55).
• If the memory is full or if the answering system is off, the system will answer after ten rings.
• In some cases, the answering system may be affected by the ringing system used by the local telephone company.

Troubleshooting
The announce­ment mes­sage is not clear.
The answer­ing system does not record mes­sage.
The mes­sages on the answering system are incomplete.
The mes­sages on the system are very difficult to hear.
• When recording the announcement, make sure you speak in a normal tone of voice about nine inches from the telephone base.
• Make sure there is no background noise (television, music, traffic, etc.) when recording.
• Make sure the answering system is on.
• Make sure the memory of the answering system is not full.
• If a caller leaves a very long message, part of it may be lost when the system disconnects the call after four minutes.
• If the caller pauses for more than seven seconds, the system stops recording and disconnects the call.
• If the memory on the system becomes full during a message, the sys­tem stops recording and disconnects the call.
• If the caller’s voice is very soft, the system may stop recording and disconnect the call.
• Press /VOLUME on the side of the handset or on the telephone base to increase the speaker volume.
The answer­ing system does not respond to remote com­mands.
• Make sure your Remote Access Code is correct (see page 56).
• Make sure you are calling from a touch tone telephone. When dialing a number, you should hear tones. If you hear clicks, then it is not a touch tone telephone and cannot activate the answering system.
• The answering system may not detect the Remote Access Code when your announcement is playing. Wait until the announcement is over before entering the code.
• There may be interference on the telephone line you are using. Press the dial pad keys firmly when dialing.

Important safety information
Especially about cordless telephones
Privacy: The same features that make a cordless telephone 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 telephone conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless handset. For this reason, you should not think of cordless tele-
phone conversations as being as private as those on corded telephones.
Electrical power: The telephone base of this cordless telephone must be con­nected to a working electrical outlet which is not 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.
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:
metal hydride rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not
to create a short circuit with conductive 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 them 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.
This product contains either nickel-cadmium or nickel-

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 recommends to physicians that:
PACEMAKER PATIENTS
• Should keep wireless telephones at least six inches from the pacemaker.
• Should NOT place wireless telephones directly over the pacemaker, such as in a breast pocket, when it is turned ON.
• Should use the wireless telephone at the ear opposite the pacemaker.
WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from other persons using wireless telephones.
