Privacy
Cordless telephones are radio devi ces. Comm unicat io ns bet w een the
handset and base of the cordless teleph one are accom pl ish ed by me ans of
radio waves which are broadcast over the open airways. Because of the
inherent physical properties of radio waves , com m unicat io n can be rece ive d
by radio receiving devices other than your own telep hone uni t, consequently,
any communications using th e cordless telephone may not be private.

SECTION 4 IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL CONSIDERATIONS
Do not attempt to unpl ug any appliance during an electrical
storm.
Unplug all electrical appliances when you know an electrical storm is
approaching. Lightning can pass through your household wiring and damage
any device connected to it. This telephone is no exception.
Caution:
Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by NEC
America, Inc., or operation of this product in any way other than as detailed
by this ma nual, could void your authori ty to operate this product.
Range
The new telephone is designed to achieve a maxim um range of up to 350
feet (depending upon the environment ) by trans mit ting and re cei ving
according to the highest specifications set forth by the FCC. We have rated
this phone to operate at a maximum distance with the qualifi cat ion that the
range depends upon the environ men t in which the telephone is used. Many
factors limit range, and it would be impossible to include all of the variables in
our rating. The maximum range rating of this telephone is meant to be used
as a means of comparison against other range claims .
Telephone Line Problems
The FCC has granted the telephone company the right to disco nnect ser vice
in the event that your telephone causes problems on the telephone line. Also,
the telephone company may make cha nges i n faciliti es and ser vices w hi ch
can affect 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 disconn ect ed until the
trouble has been corrected.

Document Revision 3NEC Unified Solutions, Inc.
Radio Interference
Radio interference may occ asional l y cause buz zi ng and hum ming in your
cordless handset, or clicking noi ses i n the base unit. This interference is
caused by external sources such as TV, fluorescent lighting, or electrical
storm. Your unit is NOT DEFECTIVE. If these noises continue and are too
distracting, check around your office to see what appli ances may be causing
the problem. In addition, we recommend that the base not be plugge d into a
circuit that also powers a major appliance bec ause of the potent ial of
interference. For best performance, ensure that the antenna on the base unit
is fully extended.
In the unlikely event that you consistently hear other voices or distracting
transmissions on your telep hone, you may be receiving radio signals for
another cordless telephone or other source of interference. If you cannot
eliminate this type of interference, you need to cha nge to a different channel.
Finally, it should be noted that some cor dle ss te lephones operate at
frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To
minimize or prevent such interferenc e, the base of the cordl ess t ele phone
should not be placed near or on top of 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.
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 more than 20 feet apart. Press the channel
key to select a channel that provides the clearest communication.
Depending on your environment, the maximum number of cordless devices
used without interference var ies.
Multiple base and handset units should not be closer than 20 feet at any tim e.
Radio interference causes interruptions in conversation. When this happens,
your unit is not defective. When noise conti nues, mov e to a different location
while you talk. (You might even need to move the base unit.) W hen th e
situation persists, contact National Technical Assistance Center.
