About Caller Identification
This telephone has a Caller ID feature that works with Caller Identification
service available through your local telephone company. You must subscribe
to the service to see call information on your telephone.
•Depending on your service, you will be able to see the number, or the
name and number, of your caller .
•The time and date are sent by the provider along with the call
information.
Additionally, this telephone has a Caller ID with Call Waiting feature that lets
you see who’ s calling ev en while you’re on another call. To use this feature,
you may need to change your phone service. Contact your local phone
service provider if you have:
•Neither Caller ID nor Call Waiting service
•Either Caller ID or Call Waiting service, but not both
•Both Caller ID and Call Waiting as separate services (you may need
combined service).
Explain that your equipment will allow you to see who is calling while you
are on another call, and you would like to subscribe to service that will let
you use this feature.
If you choose not to use the Caller ID with Call Waiting feature, this unit will
work with regular Caller ID service. To turn off Caller ID with Call Waiting,
see the FEATURE SETUP section of this manual.
There may be fees for these ser vices, and they may not be available in all
areas. This phone can provide information only if both you and the caller are
in areas offering Caller Identification service and both telephone companies
use compatible equipment.

This telephone assigns each incoming call a number from 1 to 99. The most
recent call will have the highest number (for example, if 10 calls have been
received, call number 10 is the most recent, and call number 1 is the oldest).
When the call history is full, the oldest call information is deleted to make
room for new incoming call information.
Memory Match
Names stored in memory will appear in your incoming Caller ID as stored in
your memory. For example, if you store your parent’s telephone number
with their name (“Mom and Dad”) in memory, the Caller ID display will show
MOMANDDAD whenever you receive an incoming call from their stored

BATTERIES
Charging the Handset Battery Pack
This battery should remain charged up to 15 days with the Ringer turned on
and up to 30 days with the Ringer off. A fully charged battery provides an
average talk time of about 10 hours.
The battery pack needs charging when:
•A new battery is installed in the handset.
•The phone beeps four times when you press P.
•The battery status symbol on the screen is only partly displayed.
•The phone does not respond when you press P.
Place the handset in the base either in the face-down or face-up position so
the CHARGING/HANDSET IN USE light turns on. The battery pack is
typically fully charged in six hours.
You can keep the battery fully charged by returning the handset to the base
after each use.
If you repeatedly get a low battery indicator, even after six hours of
charging, the battery should be replaced.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire or injury to persons or damage
to the telephone, read and follow these instructions carefully:
•Use only Replacement Battery 3300 (SKU# 90556).
•Do not dispose of the battery in a fire. The cell might explode.

•Do not open or mutilate the battery. Released electrolyte is
corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic
if swallowed.
•Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the battery
with conducting materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The
battery or conductor may overheat and cause harm.
•Char ge the battery provided with or identified for use with this
product only in accordance with the instructions and limitations
specified in this manual.
•Observe proper polarity orientation between the battery and battery
charger.

OPERATING RANGE
This cordless telephone operates within the maximum power allowed by the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Even so, the handset and base
can communicate over only a certain distance — which can vary with the
locations of the base and handset, the weather, and the construction of your
home or office.
If the handset is moved to a point where the base and handset can no longer
communicate, the handset will sound two short beeps when you make a
call, indicating that you are out of range. Move closer to the base to restore
normal operation.
If you receive a call while you are out of range, the handset might not
ring — or, if it does ring, the call might not connect when you press P.
Move closer to the base, then press P again to answer the call.
If you move out of range during a phone conversation, you will be
interrupted by silence, noise or interference. To improve reception, move
closer to the base.
If you move out of range without pressingP, the phone will be left
“off the hook.” To hang up properly, walk back into range, periodically
pressing P until the disappears from the display.

IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY
If you have difficulty operating this phone, try the suggestions below. For
Customer Service, visit our website at www.telephones.att.com or call
1 800 222–3111. Please retain your receipt as your proof of purchase.
If the phone does not work at all, check these items first:
•Make sure the power cord is plugged into the base and an electrical
outlet not controlled by a wall switch.
•Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the base unit
and the telephone jack.
•If the phone does not beep, or beeps four times when you press P,
the battery pack might need recharging or replacement.
•If the battery does not charge after six hours, replace it with
Replacement Battery 3300 (SKU# 90556).
•Make sure the battery pack is installed correctly.
If the above suggestions do not solve the problem, try re-initializing the
handset and base (see “To re-initialize the handset and base”).
If you have no dial tone:
Check all the previous suggestions. If you still do not hear a dial tone,
disconnect the phone and try another phone in the same jack. If there is no
dial tone on that phone either, the problem is probably in your wiring or
local service.
If you hear a two-beep signal when you try to use the handset:
•The handset and base are not communicating properly. You might be out
of range. Move closer to the base and try again.
•If moving closer to the base does not help, follow the directions below
to re-initialize the handset and base.
To re-initialize the handset and base:
1Disconnect the power to the base.
2Remove the handset battery pack.
3Wait at least 15 seconds.
4Insert the handset battery pack.
5Connect the power to the base.
6Put the handset in the base to re-initialize.

If you hear noise or interference when using the phone:
•Make sure the base antenna is fully upright.
•You may be out of range. Move closer to the base.
•Press and release h to change to another channel. Move closer to
the base before changing channels.
•Household appliances plugged into the same circuit as the base can
sometimes cause interference. Try moving the appliance or the base to
another outlet.
•The layout of your home or office may be limiting the operating range.
Try moving the base to another location, preferably on an upper f loor.
If the phone does not ring when you receive a call:
•Make sure the handset Ringer is on.
•Make sure the telephone line cord is connected firmly to the base and
the telephone jack.
•Make sure the AC adapter is plugged firmly into an electrical outlet not
controlled by a wall switch.
•You might be too far from the base; move closer.
•You might have too many extension phones on your telephone line to
allow all of them to ring. Try unplugging some of them.
If your telephone misdials or you don’t hear the other person
right away:
•It might take a few seconds for your handset to find a good connection
