Your cordless telephone uses a digital coding security system to prevent unauthorized use of
your telephone line by another nearby cordless telephone. The system has its own identifying
signal created by microcomputers in both the BASE UNIT and the HANDSET.

This telephone has an internal security code with 130,000 possible combinations.

Your cordless telephone automatically selects the best channel from the 75 frequencies
available to transmit signals between the BASE UNIT and the HANDSET. When interference
is received from other cordless telephones, your telephone automatically hops to the next clear
channel.
The nickel metal hydride (Ni-MH) BATTERYPACK in the HANDSET can be recharged many
times using the built-in charger in the BASE UNIT.
When the BATTERY CHARGE INDICATOR starts blinking on the LCD Screen, this indicates
that the BATTERYPACK needs to be recharged.
Charge the BATTERYPACK at least once every 90 days of non-use to avoid battery failure.
When the BATTERYPACK can no longer be charged, replacement of the BATTERYPACK will
be necessary.
The BATTERYPACK used in your telephone may develop a condition known as “MEMORY”.
Once subjected to a regular short discharging routine, the BATTERYPACK assumes the
discharging pattern it was subjected to. This causes rapid discharging thereby shortening the
BATTERYPACK charge span. If you believe your BATTERYPACK has developed a
“MEMORY” condition, do not charge the HANDSET until the BATTERY CHARGE INDICATOR
starts blinking on the LCD Screen. When the BATTERY CHARGE INDICATOR starts blinking
on the LCD Screen, then charge the HANDSET fully for 12 hours.

For your assistance, we have listed below a few common problems.
1. Noise may be picked up from electrical products in the home or electrical storms. Generally,
this noise is a minor annoyance and should not be interpreted as a defect in your system.
(See Technical Information on page 43.)
1. You can reset your unit if the unit is not working properly. Unplug and then plug the AC
ADAPTER into its power source, then press and hold down the button for at least 3
seconds, then release the button and the unit will “beep”. (See detail operations in page 29.)

This cordless telephone uses radio frequencies to allow mobility. There are certain difficulties in
using radio frequencies with a cordless telephone. While these are normal, the following could
affect the operation of your system.
NNooiisse
Electrical pulse noise is present in most homes at one time or another. This noise is most
intense during electrical storms. Certain kinds of electrical equipment such as light dimmers,
fluorescent bulbs, motors, and fans also generate noise pulses. Because radio frequencies are
susceptible to these noise pulses, you may occasionally hear them in your HANDSET.
Generally they are a minor annoyance and should not be interpreted as a defect in your system.
RRaanngge
Because radio frequency is used, the location of the BASE UNIT can affect the operating range.
Try several locations in your home or office and pick the one that gives you the clearest signal
to the HANDSET.
IInntteerrffeerreenncce
Electronic circuits activate a relay to connect the cordless telephone to your telephone line.
These electronic circuits operate in the radio frequency spectrum. While several protection
circuits are used to prevent unwanted signals, there may be periods when these unwanted
signals enter the BASE UNIT. You may hear clicks or hear the relay activate while you are not
using the HANDSET. If the interference occurs frequently, it can be minimized or eliminated by
relocating the BASE UNIT. You can check for interference before selecting the final BASE UNIT
location by plugging in the telephone.
NNOOTTIICCEE:
This cordless telephone uses radio communication between the HANDSET and the BASE
UNIT and may not ensure privacy of communication. Other devices, including another cordless
telephone, may interfere with the operation of this cordless telephone or cause noise during
operation. Units not containing coded access may be accessed by other radio communication
systems. Cordless telephones must not cause interference to any licensed radio service.
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. A label on the BASE UNIT of the
equipment contains, among other information, the ACTA Product Number and the Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. You must, upon request, provide this
information to your telephone service provider.
The REN is also useful in determining the number of devices that you may connect to your
telephone line and still allow all of these devices to 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 five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that you may connect to your line,
contact your local telephone service provider.
If your equipment should cause harm to the telephone network, the telephone service provider
may temporarily disconnect your service. If possible, they will notify you in advance that
temporary discontinuance of service may be required.
However, when advance written notice is not possible, the telephone service provider may
temporarily discontinue service without notice if such action is necessary under the
circumstances. The telephone service provider may make changes in its communication
facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures where such action is reasonably required in the
operation of its business and is not inconsistent with the rules and regulations of the Federal
Communications Commission.
Do not attempt to repair or modify this equipment.
Warning: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for its
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TV’s
and VCR’s. To minimize or prevent such interference, the BASE UNIT of the cordless telephone
should not be placed on or near 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.
This equipment should not be used on coin telephone lines. Connection to party line service is
subject to state tariffs. If trouble is experienced, disconnect this equipment from the telephone
line to determine if it is causing the malfunction. If the equipment is determined to be
malfunctioning, its use should be discontinued until the problem has been corrected.
IMPORTANT
Placing your BASE UNIT near appliances such as
another telephone, televisions, refrigerators, radios,
CAUTION: Any changes or modifications in construction of this device which are not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate
equipment.
NOTE: 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
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 the
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:
•Reorient or relocate the receiving ANTENNA.
•Increase the distance between the equipment and the receiver.
•Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
•Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subjected 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.
The Relevant Guidelines and Standards are:
•FCC Report and Order FCC 96-326 (August, 1996)
•American National Standards Institute (C95-1-1992)
•National Council Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP-1986)
•International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP-1998)
