OPERATING RANGE
○○
This cordless telephone operates at the
maximum power allowed by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC).
Even so, this 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. For
best performance, keep the base antenna
fully extended.
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 to answer the call.
If you move out of range during a phone
conversation, you will hear noise or
interference. To improve reception, move
closer to the base.
If you move out of range without pressing
O, your phone will be left “off the hook.”
T o hang up properly , walk back into range,
periodically pressing O until the PHONE
light goes off.
Changing Channels
This cordless telephone has 10 channels
available for maximum performance.
If you notice noise or interference while
using the handset:
1 Press C.
2 If the interference doesn't clear,
continue to press C until you find a
clear channel
— OR —
Move closer to the base and press
C.
NOTE: You must be in range to change
channels. If you press
range, you might lose the call. If you do
lose the call, place the handset in the base
for a few seconds, then make the call again.

BATTERIES
Charging the Handset Battery
Pack
The batteries need charging when:
• The phone beeps four times when
you press P .
• The LO BATT light on the handset
is on.
• The phone does not respond when
you press P, and none of the
lights goes on.
Place the handset in the base so the
CHARGING light goes on. The batteries
will be fully charged in 10 hours. Once
the batteries are fully charged, you need
only put the handset in the base when the
LO BATT light goes on.
If it’s more convenient for you, you can
leave the handset in the base all the time.
It is impossible to overcharge the batteries.
If you get a low-battery signal even
after 10 hours of charging, the battery
should be replaced.

!
fire or injury to persons or damage
to the telephone, read and follow these
instructions carefully.
• Use only Lucent Technologies
Replacement Battery 4051.
• Do not dispose of the battery in a fire.
The cell might explode. Check with local codes for special disposal instructions.
• 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.
• Charge the battery provided with or
identified for use with this product only

performance, let the handset batteries
charge fully.

IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY
○○
If you have difficulty operating this phone,
try the suggestions below . If you still have
trouble, call Lucent Technologies at
1 800 222-3111.
If the phone doesn’t work at all, check
these items first:
• Make sure the power cord is
plugged in.
• Make sure the telephone line cord
is plugged firmly into the base unit
and the telephone jack.
• Make sure the base antenna is fully
extended.
• If the phone does not beep when
you press P, the batteries
might need recharging.
• If the LO BATT light is on, the
batteries need recharging.
• Make sure the battery pack is
installed correctly.
• If you have rotary service on your
phone line, make sure the dial mode
switch is set to PULSE.
• If the above suggestions don’t solve
the problem, try resetting the security
code (see below).
If you hear a two-beep signal when you
try to use your handset:
• The handset and base are not
communicating properly . You might
be out of range while attempting to
dial. Move closer to the base and try
the call again.
• If moving closer to the base
doesn’t help, the handset and base
might be set to different security
codes.To reset the code, try the
following:
• Place the handset in the base, and
check to make sure the CHARGING
light is on. Wait 15 seconds, then
pickup the handset and press
P. This phone should operate
properly. If it doesn’t, try the next
step.
• Place the handset in the base, and
check to make sure the CHARGING
light is on. Unplug the AC adapter
from the outlet, wait 15 seconds,
then plug it in again. The CHARGING light should go on. Wait
another 15 seconds, then pick up the
handset and press P. This phone
should operate properly. If it doesn’t,
try the next step.
• Pick up the handset, open the
battery compartment, and unplug the
battery pack. Wait 15 seconds, then
reinstall the battery pack, close the
battery compartment, place the
handset in the base, and check to
make sure the CHARGING light is
on. Wait another 15 seconds, then
pick up the handset and press P.
This phone should operate properly.
If you have no dial tone, check all the previous suggestions. If you still don’t 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. Call your local telephone company.
If you hear noise or interference when
using the phone::
• Make sure the base antenna is fully
extended.
• You may be out of range. Move
closer to the base.
• Press and release C to change
to another of the 10 channels
available. If the noise is
exceptionally loud, 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
might be limiting the operating
range. Try moving the base to another
location, preferably on an upper floor.
If you lose a call after changing channels:
• You were probably almost out of
range. Move closer to the base
before changing channels. Before
placing the call again, set the
handset in the base for at least
15 seconds.
If the phone does not ring when you
receive a call:
• Make sure the telephone line cord
is connected firmly to the base and
the telephone jack. Make sure the
power cord is plugged into an outlet
not controlled by a wall switch.
• You might be too far from the base.
Move closer to the base.
• You might have too many extension phones on your telephone line
to allow all of them to ring. Try unplugging some of the other phones.
• Try changing the channel.
If you hear other calls while using your
phone:
• Press C to change to another
channel.
• Disconnect your base from the
telephone jack and plug in a regular
telephone. If you still hear other calls,
the problem is probably in your wiring
or local service. Call your local phone
company.
If you hear noise in the handset and
the buttons don’t work:
• Your base unit and handset might
not be set to the same security code.
Place the handset in the base for at
least 15 seconds to reset the security
code.
