Owner’s Manual 1-5

Issue 1.0

WARNING

CAUTION

SECTION 5 PRIVACY

Cordless telephones are radio frequency devices. Communications between the
handset and base unit of the cordless telephone are accomplished by means of radio
waves which are broadcast over the open airways. Because of the inherent physical
properties of radio waves, communication can be received by radio receiving devices
other than your own telephone unit; consequently, any communications using the
cordless telephone may not be private.

SECTION 6 IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL CONSIDERATIONS

6.1 Electrical Safety

Do not attempt to unplug any appliance during an electrical storm.

Unplug all electrical appliances when you know an electrical storm is
approaching. Lightning can pass through wiring and damage any device
connected to it. This telephone is no exception.

6.2 Range

Nominal values of the DECT system are:

 164 feet (50 meters) – Indoor

 984 feet (300 meters) – Outdoor

The telephone is designed to achieve a maximum range of up to 350 feet
(depending upon the environment), by transmitting and receiving according to the
highest specifications set forth by the FCC. This telephone has been rated to
operate at a maximum distance with the qualification that the range depends upon
the environment in which the telephone is used. Many factors limit range, and it
would be impossible to include all of the variables in the rating. The maximum
range rating of this telephone is meant to be used as a means of comparison
against other range claims.

Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by
NEC Corporation of America, or operation of this product in any
way other than as detailed by this manual, could void your authority
to operate this product.

6.3 Telephone Line Problems

The FCC has granted the telephone company the right to disconnect service in
the event that your telephone causes problems on the telephone line. Also, the
telephone company may make changes in facilities and services which can affect

1-6 Specifications and Safety Information

the operation of your unit. However, your telephone company must give adequate
notice in writing prior to such actions to allow you time for making necessary
arrangements to continue uninterrupted service.

If you are having trouble with your telephone service, you must first disconnect
your telephone to determine if it is the cause of your problem. If you determine
that it is the cause, you must leave it disconnected until the trouble has been
corrected.

6.4 Radio Interference

Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and humming in your
cordless handset, or clicking noises in the base unit. This interference is caused
by external sources such as a PC, TV, fluorescent lighting, or electrical storm, etc.
Your unit is NOT DEFECTIVE. If these noises continue and are too distracting,
check around your office to see what appliances may be causing the problem. In
addition, we recommend that the base unit not be plugged into a circuit that also
powers a major appliance because of the potential of interference. For best
performance, ensure that the antenna on the base unit is fully extended. It may
also be necessary to re-locate the base unit

Issue 1.0

In the unlikely event that you consistently hear other voices or distracting
transmissions on your telephone, you may be receiving radio signals for another
cordless telephone or other source of interference.

Finally, it should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at frequencies
that may cause interference to nearby TVs or other electronic equipment. To
minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless telephone should

not be placed near or on top of other electronic equipment. If interference is
experienced, moving the cordless telephone unit farther away will often reduce or
eliminate the interference.

6.5 More than One Cordless Telephone

If you want to use more than one cordless telephone in your office, they must
operate on different channels and must be more than 20 feet (6m) apart.

If more than eight DTZ-8R-1s are used in the same area, there is a possibility that
the following problem occurs:

 Difficulty connecting the Handset with the Base Unit

 Some noises can be heard during conversation

The DTZ-8R-1 is limited to five RF channels. The RF channel is changed
automatically to find the best channel.

Depending on your environment, the maximum number of cordless devices used
without interference varies.

Owner’s Manual 1-7

Issue 1.0

Multiple base and handset units should not be closer than 20 feet (6m) at any
time.

Radio interference causes interruptions in conversation. When this happens, your
unit is not defective. When noise continues, move to a different location while you
talk. (You might even need to move the base unit.) When the situation persists,
contact the National Technical Assistance Center (NTAC).
