INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the
RadioShack 900 MHz Cordless
Telephone. Your phone uses advanced
technology to give you superior audio
quality and extended range. The
phone’s Caller ID unit records each
caller’s telephone number (and name, if
available in your area) and the date and
time of the call, as provided by your
local phone company to Caller ID
service subscribers. If you subscribe to
Call Waiting with Caller ID, the phone
shows you the incoming caller
information, even when you are already
talking on the phone.
!
IMPORTANT
!
• Cordless phones such
as this one 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.
• When AC power is
lost, the phone loses
the security accessprotection code
connection between
the base and the
handset. When power
is restored, put the
handset on the base
briefly to restore this
connection so you can
use the handset.
• Your phone operates
on standard radio
frequencies as
allocated by FCC.
• It is possible for other
radio units operating
nearby on similar
frequencies to
unintentionally
intercept your
conversation or cause
interference. This
possible lack of privacy
can occur with any
cordless phone.

IMPORTANT
INFORMATION
This telephone has been tested and
found to comply with all applicable UL
and FCC standards.
FCC STATEMENT
Your phone complies with Part 68 of
FCC Rules. You must, upon request,
provide the FCC registration number
and the REN to your telephone
company. Both numbers are on the
back of your phone.
Your phone is not intended to be used
with party-line systems. Connection to

We have designed your phone to
conform to federal regulations, and you
can connect it to most telephone lines.
However, each phone (and each
device, such as a telephone or
answering machine) that you connect
to the telephone line draws power from
the telephone line. We refer to this
power draw as the device’s ringer
equivalence number, or REN. The REN
is on the back of your phone.
If you use more than one phone or
other device on the line, add up all of
the RENs. If the total is more than five
(three in rural areas), your telephones
might not ring. If ringer operation is
impaired, remove a device from the line.
In the unlikely event that your phone
causes problems on the phone line, the
phone company can temporarily
discontinue your service. If this
happens, the phone company attempts
to notify you in advance. If advance
notice is not practical, the phone
company notifies you as soon as
possible and advises you of your right
to file a complaint with the FCC.
Also, the phone company can make
changes to its lines, equipment,
operations, or procedures that could
affect the operation of this telephone.
The telephone company notifies you of
these changes in advance, so you can
take the necessary steps to prevent
interruption of your telephone service.

Important Information
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.
SURGE PROTECTION
Your telephone has built-in protection
circuits to reduce the risk of damage
from surges in telephone line and
power line current. These protection
circuits meet or exceed the FCC
requirements, however, lightning
striking the telephone or power lines
can damage your telephone.
Lightning damage is not common.
Nevertheless, if you live in an area that
has severe electrical storms, we
suggest you unplug your phone when
storms approach to reduce the
possibility of damage.

IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock
and injury to persons, including the following:
1. Do not use this product near water, for example, near a
bathtub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet
basement, or near a swimming pool.
2. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during
an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric
shock from lightning.
3. Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak if the phone is
in the vicinity of the leak.
4. Use only the power cord and batteries indicated in this
manual.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. They may explode.
Check with local codes for possible special disposal
instructions.

INSTALLATION
SELECTING A LOCATION
You can place the phone’s base on a
desk or table, or mount it on a standard
wall plate or directly on a wall. 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
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.
CAUTION
You must use
a Class 2
!
power
source that supplies
9V DC and delivers at
least 210 mA. Its
center tip must be set
to positive and its plug
must fit the phone’s
DC IN 9V jack. The
supplied adapter
meets these specifications. Using an
adapter that does not
meet these specifications could damage
the phone or the
adapter.
• Always connect the
AC adapter to the
phone before you
connect it to AC
power. When you
finish, disconnect the
adapter from AC
power before you
disconnect it from the
phone.

CALLER ID
OPERATION
If you subscribe to Caller ID service
from your phone company, the phone
company sends information about the
call, as well as the time and date,
between the first and second rings of
every call you receive. The phone
displays this information after the
second ring, and it stores up to 30
Caller ID records for later review. It also
shows if the caller information is
unavailable or if the name and number
were blocked by the caller (see “Caller
ID Messages” on Page 35).
If you subscribe to Call Waiting with
Caller ID, you hear a tone through the
handset when a call comes in, then the
Caller ID record appears. If the Caller
ID memory becomes full, any new call
replaces the oldest call’s record.

Troubleshooting
Problem Suggestions
Low volume or
unusual
sounds.
Your conversation is difficult
to hear due to
dropout or muting.
The phone
cannot be
operated at a
useful distance from the
base because
the signal
becomes weak
or noisy (handset’s range has
decreased).
Someone has picked up
another phone on the
same line. Hang up the
other phone.
Keep the handset away
from computers, remote
control toys, wireless
microphones, alarm systems, intercoms, room
monitors, fluorescent
lights, and electrical
appliances.
Move to another location
or turn off the source of
interference.
Press CH/DEL to change
the channel.
Hang up and redial the
number.
Be sure the handset’s

base.
Replace the battery pack.
Move the handset closer

Check that the system is
correctly and securely
connected.
Check with your phone
company to verify that
your Caller ID service is
active.
Troubleshooting
