EquipmEnt ApprovAl informAtion

Your telephone equipment is approved for connection to the Public Switched Telephone Network and is in compliance with Parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and Regulations and the Technical Requirements for Telephone Terminal Equipment published by ACTA.

1 Notiﬁcation to the Local Telephone Company On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other

information, the US number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for the equipment. You must, upon request, provide this information to your telephone company.

The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may connect

to your telephone line and still have all of these devices ring when your telephone number is called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line should not exceed 5. To be certain of the number of devices you may connect to your line as determined by the REN, you should contact your local telephone company.

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 requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and modular plug 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.

Notes

• This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company.

• Party lines are subject to state tariffs, and therefore, you may not be able to use your own telephone equipment if you are on a party line. Check with your local telephone company.

• Notice must be given to the telephone company upon permanent disconnection of your telephone from your line.

• If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, ensure the installation of this product does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone company or a qualiﬁed installer.

2 Rights of the Telephone Company Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may harm the

telephone network, the telephone company shall, where practicable, notify you that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. Where prior notice is not practicable and the circumstances warrant such action, the telephone company may temporarily discontinue service immediately. In case of such temporary discontinuance, the telephone company must: (1) promptly notify you of such temporary discontinuance; (2) afford you the opportunity to correct the situation; and (3) inform you of your right to bring a complaint to the Commission pursuant to procedures set forth in Subpart E of Part 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.

The telephone company may make changes in its communications facilities,

equipment, operations or procedures where such action is required in the operation of its business and not inconsistent with FCC Rules and Regulations. If these changes are expected to affect the use or performance of your telephone equipment, the telephone company must give you adequate notice, in writing, to allow you to maintain uninterrupted service.

intErfErEncE informAtion

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference; and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.

This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

introduction

gEtting to Know your multi-HAndsEt cordlEss systEm

CAUTION: When using telephone equipment, there are basic

safety instructions that should always be followed. Refer to the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS provided with this product and save them for future reference.

Congratulations on purchasing this Multi-handset Telephone System. This system operates in the 2.4 GHz frequencies and is unique to conventional cordless telephones. When the base is connected to electrical power and a telephone line, it can support up to four handsets, and you can place an extra handset in the same location anywhere where electrical power is available. The system provides one outside line and one intercom path. And, the base unit provides four voice channels for four handset users to perform intercom and outside calls at the same time. You can also easily use your multi-handset system to quickly access your telephone company’s convenient features with one touch of the direct access buttons on your handset.

Features:

• 2.4 GHz Digital Cordless Multi-Handset Technology

• Speakerphone on Base and Handset

• Handset to Handset and Handset to Base Intercom

• 3-way Conference/Call Transfer

• Call Waiting and Caller ID Compatible

• Caller ID Voice Announcement on Base (User Recordable)

• Pre-Dialing (up to 30 digits)

• Most Frequently Used Names and Numbers Memory Dialing

• ENREV Battery Charging Technology, which optimizes battery charging and improves battery life

• Voice Message Waiting Indicator

• Telephone Company Direct Access Buttons

This telephone has been designed to be simple to use, however, you can reach its full potential more quickly by taking a few minutes to read this instruction book. This telephone is a multifunction product for use with Call Waiting Caller ID services and special telephone company features available from your local telephone company.

Your Call Waiting Caller ID phone allows you to:

• View the name and telephone number of a caller (Call Waiting Caller ID).

• Identify callers before you answer the phone.

• View the time and date of each incoming call.

• Record up to 50 Caller ID messages sequentially.

• Know who called while you are on the line or when you were away.

• Screen unwanted calls, eliminate harassment from annoying calls, or to get prepared before answering a call.

• Caller ID Multi-function: Busy, Conference, To Voice Mail, Please Hold, Drop, Answer.

Telephone company direct access buttons allow you to:

• Directly access your voice mail with one touch of the VOICE MAIL button.

• Directly access your info service with one touch of the INFO button.

• Repeatedly dial a busy number with one touch of the REPEAT DIAL button.

• Automatically and repeatedly redial a number with one touch of the AUTO REDIAL button.

IMPORTANT: Because cordless phones operate on electricity, you should have at least one phone in your home that isn’t cordless, in case the power in your home goes out.

IMPORTANT: In order to use all of the features of this telephone, you must subscribe to two separate services available from your local telephone company: the standard Name/Number Caller ID Service to know who is calling when the phone rings and Call Waiting Caller ID Service to know who is calling while you are on the phone.

INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TVs, microwave ovens, and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV, microwave ovens, or VCR. If such interference continues, move the cordless telephone farther away from these appliances. Certain other communications devices may also use the 2.4 GHz frequency for communication, and, if not properly set, these devices may interfere with each other and/or your new telephone. If you are concerned with interference, please refer to the owner’s manual for these devices on how to properly set channels to avoid interference. Typical devices that may use the 2.4 GHz frequency for communication include wireless audio/video senders, wireless computer networks, multi-handset cordless telephone systems, and some long-range cordless telephone systems.
