INFORMATION
This telephone has been tested and
found to comply with all applicable UL
and FCC standards.
FCC S
Your telephone compiles with Part 68
of the FCC Rules.Upon request, you
TATEMENT

must provide the phone’s FCC
registration number and REN to your
phone company. These numbers are
on the base unit.
Your phone is not intended to be used
with party-line systems. Connection to
party line service is subject to state
tariffs. Contact the state public utility
commission, public service
commission, or corporation
commission for information.
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 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.

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 phone. The
telephone company notifies you of these
changes in advance, so you can take
the necessary steps to prevent

URGE PROTECTION
S
Your phone 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 phone or power lines can
damage your phone.
Lightning damage is not common.
Nevertheless, if you live in an area that
has severe electrical storms, we
suggest that you unplug your phone
when storms approach to reduce the
possibility of damage.

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

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 the 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.

INSTRUCTIONS
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing RadioShack
Handsfree Phone. It combines the
clarity of 900 MHz communication with
portability and convenience. The
cordless handset clips to your belt or
clothing so you can make and answer
calls away from the base. The headset
allows you to use your hands while you
talk. 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.

INSTALLATION
ELECTING A LOCATION
S
You can place the phone’s base on a
desk or table. Select a locations that is:
Ô

• 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.
!!!!
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 have the telephone company
update the wiring for you. You must use
compatible modular jacks that are
compliant with Part 68 of FCC Rules
and the requirements adapted by the
ACTA. The telephone cord and
modular plug provided is Part 68
compliant for connecting to the
telephone company network.
NOTE Ô
Ô
If your home has
specially wired alarm
equipment connected to
the telephone line, be
sure that installing the
system does not disable
your alarm equipment.
If you have questions
about what will disable
alarm equipment,

increases the battery pack’s
usable life.
• The supplied battery pack should
last for about a year. If the battery
pack does not hold a charge for
more than 2 hours after an
overnight charge, replace it with a
new 3.6-volt, 600 mAh battery
pack with a connector that fits the

Troubleshooting
TROUBLESHOOTING
We do not expect you to have any
problems with your phone, but if you
do, these suggestions might help.
Problem Suggestions
The phone
does not work
properly.
The display
flashes slowly
when the
handset is
faceup on the
base.
The handset
stops working
or works poorly
during a call.
Be sure the base’s phone
line cord and AC adapter
are correctly and securely
connected.
Be sure the battery pack
in the handset is
connected and charged.
Return the handset to the
base for about 3 seconds
to reset the security
access-protection code.
Be sure the battery pack
in the handset is
connected and charged.
Move the handset closer
to the base.
Be sure the handset’s
battery pack is charged.
(If the battery pack power
is too low, the handset
cannot display Low

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).
Make sure the headset’s
plug is properly connected to the jack.
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 DELETE/CHAN-
NEL to change the channel.
Hang up and redial the
number.
Return the handset to the
base and recharge the
battery pack.
Be sure the base’s
antenna is not touching a
metal surface.

Problem Suggestions
The handset
battery pack
does not
charge.
The handset
does not ring
or receive a
page.
You have an
incoming call,
but do not
receive any
Caller ID
information.
Check the charging contacts on the handset and
base. If they are dirty,
clean them with a dry
cloth.
Be sure the battery pack

Be sure the handset is
properly seated on the
base.
Replace the battery pack.
Move the handset closer
to the base.
Be sure the battery pack
in the handset is connected and charged.
Move the base away from
other electrical devices.
Let the phone ring twice
before you answer so the
system has time to record
the Caller ID information.
Check that the system is
correctly and securely
connected.
Check with your phone
company to verify that
your Caller ID service is
active.
42
If you still have problems, disconnect
the phone. If other phones on the same
line work properly, the fault is in this
phone or its installation. If you cannot
find the problem, take the phone to
your local RadioShack store for
assistance.
CARE
Keep the phone dry; if it gets wet, wipe
it dry immediately. Use and store the
phone only in normal temperature
environments. Handle the phone
carefully; do not drop it. Keep the
phone away from dust and dirt, and
wipe it with a damp cloth occasionally
to keep it looking new.
SERVICE AND
REPAIR
If your phone is not performing as it
should, take it to your local RadioShack
store for assistance. Modifying or
tampering with the phone’s internal
components can cause a malfunction
and might invalidate its warranty and
void your FCC authorization to operate
it.
