Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the C4230, 5.8 GHz amplified cordless
phone, from Clarity. Using our patented Digital Clarity Power, the
C4230 clearly amplifies incoming sound up to 50 dB while cutting
out background noise. This phone has many features including a
digital answering machine and speakerphone.
This User Guide and Quick Start Guide will provide you with the
information you need to use your C4230 effectively, easily and safely.
Read this manual thoroughly before using this telephone. Keep the
manual near the phone for easy reference.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using your telephone equipment,
basic safety precautions should always
be followed to reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock and injury to persons
including the following:
1. Read and understand all instructions.
2. Follow all warnings and instruc-
tions marked on the telephone.
3. Do not use this telephone near
a bath tub, wash basin, kitchen
sink or laundry tub, in a wet
basement, near a swimming pool
or anywhere else there is water.
4. Avoid using a telephone (other
than a cordless type) during a
storm. There may be a remote risk
of electrical shock from lightning.
5. Do not use the telephone to report
a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
6. Unplug this telephone from the wall
outlets before cleaning. Do not use
liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners
on the telephone. Use a damp cloth
for cleaning.
7. Place this telephone on a stable
surface. Serious damage and/or injury
may result if the telephone falls.
8. Do not cover the slots and open ings on this telephone. This telephone
should never be placed near or over
a radiator or heat register. This tele phone should not be placed in a
built-in installation unless proper
ventilation is provided.
9. Operate this telephone using the
electrical voltage as stated on
the base unit or in the owner’s
manual. If you are not sure of the
voltage in your home, consult your
dealer or local power company.
10. Do not place anything on the
power cord. Install the telephone
where no one will step or trip on
the cord.
11. Do not overload wall outlets or
extension cords as this can increase
the risk of fire or electrical shock.
12. Never push any objects through
the slots in the telephone. They can
touch dangerous voltage points or
short out parts that could result in
a risk of fire or electrical shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind on
the telephone.
13. To reduce the risk of electrical
shock, do not take this phone apart.
Opening or removing covers may
expose you to dangerous voltages
or other risks. Incorrect reassembly
can cause electric shock when the
appliance is subsequently used.
14. Unplug this product from the wall
outlet and refer servicing to the
manufacturer under the following
conditions:
A. When the power supply cord
or plug is frayed or damaged.
B. If liquid has been spilled into
the product.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
work by a qualified technician
to restore the telephone to
normal operation.
E. If the telephone has been
dropped or the case has
been damaged.
F. If the telephone exhibits a
distinct change in performance.
15. Never install telephone wiring
during a lightning storm.
16. Never install telephone jacks in wet
locations unless the jack is specifi cally designed for wet locations.
17. Never touch uninsulated telephone
wires or terminals unless the tele phone line has been disconnected
at the network interface.
18. Use caution when installing or
modifying telephone lines.
19. Use only the power cord and

Do not dispose of batteries in a
fire. They may explode. Check with
local codes for possible special
disposal instructions.
20. Plug the AC adaptor into the outlet
that is nearest and most accessible
to the telephone.
Exposure to high volume sound levels
may damage your hearing. Although
there is no single volume setting that
is appropriate for everyone, you should
always use the handset with the volume
set at moderate levels and avoid prolonged exposure to high volume sound
levels. The louder the volume, the less
time is required before your hearing
could be affected. If you experience
hearing discomfort, you should stop
using the handset. To protect your
hearing, some hearing experts suggest
that you:
1. Set the volume control in a low
position and then adjust the
volume to a comfortable level.
2. Limit the amount of time you use
the handset at high volume.
3. Avoid turning up the volume to
block out noisy surroundings.
CHILDREN: Never allow children to
play with the product – small parts may
be a choking hazard and the amplified
volume may cause hearing damage.

REGULATORY COMPLIANCE
Part 68 of FCC Rules
Information
a) This equipment complies with Part
68 of the FCC rules and the require
ments adopted by the ACTA. On the
bottom of this equipment is a label that
contains, among other information, a
product identifier in the format US:
AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this
number must be provided to the telephone company.
b) A plug and jack used to connect this
equipment to the premises wiring and
telephone network must comply with the
applicable FCC Part 68 rules and require
ments adopted by the ACTA. A compliant
telephone cord and modular plug, RJ11C
USOC, is provided with this product. It is
designed to be connected to a compatible modular jack that is also compliant.
See installation instructions for details.
c) The REN is used to determine the
number of devices that may be connected
to a telephone line. Excessive RENs on a
telephone line may result in the devices
not ringing in response to an incoming
call. In most but not all areas, the sum of
RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be
certain of the number of devices that may
be connected to a line, as determined
by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company. For products approved
after July 23, 2001, the REN for this product is part of the product identifier that
has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX.
The digits represented by ## are the
REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is
a REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the
REN is separately shown on the label.

Before installing this equipment, users
should ensure that it is permissible to
be connected to the facilities of the
local telecommunications company. The
equipment must also be installed using
an acceptable method of connection. In
some cases, the company’s inside wiring
associated with a single line individual
service may be extended by means of
a certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer
should be aware that compliance with
the above conditions may not prevent
degradation of service in some situations. Repairs to certified equipment
should be made by an authorized
Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier.
Any repairs or alterations made by the
user to this equipment, or equipment
malfunctions, may give the telecommu
nications company cause to request the
user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own
protection that the electrical ground
connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water
pipe system, if present, are connected
together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
CAUTION: Users should not
attempt to make such connections
themselves, but should contact the
appropriate electrical inspection
authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
The Ringer Equivalence Number is an

Equivalence Numbers of all the devices
does not exceed five.
(The term “IC:” before the certification/
registration number only signifies that
the Industry Canada technical specifica
tions were met.)
