INSTRUCTIONS
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a RadioShack 2.4 GHz
Multi Handset Expandable Cordless Telephone.
Unlike other conventional cordless telephones, your
telephone supports up to eight handsets on a single
telephone line. You can add a handset to any room
in your home or office that has an AC outlet. No
more running to the other end of the house to
answer the phone! You can transfer outside calls to
other handsets. If you subscribe to Call Waiting with
Caller ID, the Caller ID (CID) lets you see who’s
calling before you answer the phone, even when
you are already talking on the phone.
!
IMPORTANT
!
Cordless phones require
AC power to operate. When
the power is off, you cannot
make or receive calls using
your phone. To be safe, you
should also have a phone
that does not need AC
power to operate (not a
cordless phone), so you
can still make and receive
calls if there is an AC power
failure.
!
Introduction
Before using your phone, be sure to carefully peel
the protective film off the handset’s display window.
5
Ô NOTE Ô
The USOC number of the
jack to be installed is
RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall
plate jack).

S
ELECTING A LOCATION
Select a location that is:
• near an accessible AC outlet
• near a telephone line jack
• out of the way of normal activities
•away from electrical machinery, electrical
appliances, metal walls or filing cabinets,
wireless intercoms, alarms, and room monitors
•away from other cordless phones
Ô
" CAUTION "
Your telephone connects
directly to a modular
telephone line jack. If your
telephone wiring does not
have a modular jack, you
can update the wiring
yourself using jacks and
adapters (available at your
local RadioShack store), or
Installing Your Telephone
have the telephone
company update the wiring
for you. You must use
compatible modular jacks
that are compliant with Part
68 of FCC Rules.
The base’s location affects the handset’s range. If
you have a choice of several locations, try each to
see which provides the best performance.

Ô NOTE Ô
• If you mounted the base
on the wall, place the
handset with the keypad
facing out so the charging
contacts make a clean
connection to charge the
battery pack.
• Using a pencil eraser,
clean the charging
contacts on the handset
and base about once a
month.
• If the battery pack
becomes weak during a
call, the handset beeps
LLLLoooowwww BBBBaaaatttttttteeeerrrryy
and
appears. You must
recharge the battery pack
before you can make
another call.
• About once a month, fully
discharge the battery by
keeping the handset off
the base until LL

For the use of the second handset and its charger,
see “Using an Optional Handset” on Page 30.
The supplied battery pack should last for about a
year. If the battery pack does not hold a charge for
more than two hours after an overnight charge,
replace it with a new 3.6-volt, 800 mAh battery pack
with a connector that fits the socket in the battery
compartment. You can order a replacement battery
!
pack through your local RadioShack store. Install
the new battery pack and charge it for about 15–20
hours.
If you have trouble replacing the battery pack, take
the phone to your local RadioShack store for
assistance.
If you are not going to use your phone for an
extended period, disconnect the battery pack to
increase its usable life.
