Congratulations! Yoa tiave purchased
one of the most sophisticated cordless
telephones on the marketl The
AUDIOVOX OT has been de
signed to offer a new standard in
cordless telephone technology.
Lfnilks most other cordless phones, the
Aumovox DT 921c d[gillies your
voice using advanced ADPCM digital
voice coding lo provide noise and
distortion tree perforniance. In most
conditions you wilt not be abis to tell
you are using a cordless phone. Gone
are the annoyances of static, interfer
ence and having to listen to other
people^s conversations on your cord
less phone.
The AUDIOVOX OT 921 c scrambles
your voice bafcra it transmits t|. This
allows you the security of knowing that
no one can tune In and eavesdrop on
your conversations.
The AUDIOVOX DT 921o decodes and
displays name and/or number Caller ID
(CIO) information where ava^able and
when subscribed to. The alpha
numeric display can show both the
name 4hd number of the calling party.
Up to 24 name characters or 11 phone
number digits can be displayed an the
LCD.
H
With the AUDIOVOX DT S2lc, [he user
can easily answer a call by pressing
any key other than the OFF, MUT£ or
VOLUME Keys. In addition, the handset
keypad and LCD iiluminate while the
handset rings to signal an Incoming
call. This is very useful in a dark
environment. -
The AUDIOVOX DT 921 c also pro
vides a one-way Page/Rnd. Pressing
the base PAGE hey will cause the
handset to nng In a manner which
distinguishes it from normal Incoming
ringing. This can be used to aJert the
handset user, or to simply locate the
handset in the event that it Is mis
placed.
The AUDIOVOX DT 921e uses special
memory in both the base and handset
which is not susceptible to power
failures. This provides permanent
storage of ail memory dial numbers,
CID information as well as the base
and handset security cedes.
When an optional battery pack is
installed in the base unit, the
AUDIOVOX DT 921c uses this battery
pack to provide operaUonal backup in
case of power failure. In (his way you
have access to all normal phone
functions during a total power outage.
Catis can still be placed and received
without interruptñn. More than £ hours
backup will be possible with a fully
charged banery pack in the base unit.
The AUDIO VOX DT 921c irrforms you
that another extension is ournenlly iñ'
use on the same phone line. The
phone will also alert you when you are
Out of Range, even when you're not
using the phonal

Unsuccessful programming can result
from not correctly completing the
programming sequence. For example,
if after entering a number on the LCD
and entering program mode, the OFF
key were pressed instead of entering
a valid memory location, the
'PROGRAMMING INCOMPLETE'*
message would appear. If this
message appears, simply repeat the
programming sequence.
If programming is unsuccessful the unit

because only the last 7 digits of any
number are displayed when dialing
