Baby monitor

T
his feature allows you to listen in on a room where another handset is located, allowing you to easily monitor from different areas of the house or even while away from home. The monitored handset (placed in a baby’s room, for example) will automatically call the
monitoring handset, base unit, or the phone n
umber stored when it detects sound.
Important:
R Before using this feature, we recommend
that you test this feature and adjust the baby monitor sensitivity as needed, especially if you plan to monitor from outside.
R This feature should not be used as a
substitute for a medical or caregiver’s supervision. It is the caregiver’s responsibility to stay close enough to handle any eventuality.
Note:
R If the unit is connected to a PBX system,
you cannot set the baby monitor.
R During the monitoring mode, battery
consumption is faster than usual. We recommend leaving the monitored handset on the base unit or charger.
R The monitored handset never rings while it
is being monitored. If the base unit is placed near the monitored handset, we recommend turning off the base unit ringer volume (page 17).

Voicemail service

I
n addition to your unit’s answering system
you may also have voicemail service from your phone service provider. Voicemail is
an answering service that may be offered by your phone service provider. This service can also record calls when you are unavailable to answer the phone or when your line is busy. Messages are recorded on the phone company system and not on the unit’s answering system. R To use the voicemail service rather than the
unit’s answering system, turn off the
answering system (page 41). If you have unit’s answering system set to on and also the voicemail enabled, the system with least amount of rings will record the message first.
Example:
If the unit’s answering system is set to 4 rings (page 46) and the voicemail answering system provided by your phone company is set to 6 rings (call your service provider), the unit’s answering system will record the incoming call first.
Important:
R You need to store the voicemail access
number to activate the message indicator
(page 46) for voicemail service.
Storing the voicemail (VM) a

FCC and other information

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the bottom of this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, a product identifier in the format US:ACJ----------. If requested, this number must be provided to the telephone company.
L Registration No.............(found on the

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 the product. It is designed to be connected to a compatible modular jack that is also compliant.

In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company. For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for the product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3).
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But if advance notice isn't practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be
advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens the telephone company will provide advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.
If trouble is experienced with this equipment, for repair or warranty information, please contact a Factory Service Center or other Authorized Servicer. If the equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may request that you disconnect the equipment until the problem is resolved.
Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission, public service commission or corporation commission for information.
If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, ensure the installation of this equipment does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.
This equipment is hearing aid compatible as defined by the FCC in 47 CFR Section
68.316.
When you hold the phone to your ear, noise might be heard in your Hearing Aid. Some Hearing Aids are not adequately shielded from external RF (radio frequency) energy.

manufacturer about the availability of Hearing Aids which provide adequate shielding to RF energy commonly emitted by digital devices.
WHEN PROGRAMMING EMERGENCY NUMBERS AND(OR) MAKING TEST CALLS TO EMERGENCY NUMBERS:
1) Remain on the line and briefly explain to the dispatcher the reason for the call.
2) Perform such activities in the off-peak hours, such as early morning or late evenings.
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. Privacy of communications may not be ensured when using this phone.
CAUTION:
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this device.
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 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: – Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna.
– Increase the separation between the
equipment and 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.
Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TVs 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 or VCR. If
interference is experienced, move the
cordless telephone further away from the TV or VCR. This will often reduce or eliminate interference.
FCC RF Exposure Warning:
L This product complies with FCC radiation
exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.
L To comply with FCC RF exposure
requirements, the base unit must be installed and operated 20 cm (8 inches) or more between the product and all person’s body.
L This product may not be collocated or
operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
L The handset may be carried and operated
with only the specific provided belt-clip. Other non-tested belt-clips or similar body-worn accessories may not comply and must be avoided.
Notice:
L FCC ID can be found inside the battery compartment or on the bottom of the
units.
