READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLATION

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

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.

Important:

one require AC power to operate. When the AC power is off, you cannot dial out or receive incoming calls using your cordless phone. For this reason, this phone should not be your only telephone. To be safe, you should also have a phone that does not require AC power to operate (not a cordless phone) so you can still make and receive calls if there is an AC power failure.

Some cordless phones operate at frequencies that might cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless phone should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR.

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.

LIGHTNING

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 that you unplug your phone when storms approach to reduce the possibility of damage.

• 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 your local RadioShack store or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your cordless phone.

In the unlikely event that this 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

Features

Installation

MOUNTING THE PHONE

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. Choose a location that is:

• near an AC outlet

• near a modular telephone line jack

• out of the way of normal activities

• away from electrical machinery, electri-

cal 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.

Connecting to the Phone Lines

To take full advantage of the phone’s capabilities, you must have two phone lines with separate phone numbers. If you have only one line, you can order a second from your phone company.

You can connect the phone to the lines in one of three ways:

• connect two lines through a two-line

modular phone jack

• connect two lines through two one-line

modular phone jack

• connect one line through a one-line

modular phone jack.

Notes:

• 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

• The line that connects a two-line phone jack to the phone company wiring must be twisted-pair cable. Otherwise, you might hear interference (crosstalk) between the two lines.

• The USOC number of the two-line jack to be installed is RJ14C (RJ14W for a wall plate). The USOC number of a single-line jack is RJ11C.

Cautions:

Its center tip must be set to positive and its plug must fit the phone's 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.

• The supplied RadioShack adapter was designed specifically for your phone. Use only the supplied adapter.

FCC Rules

You must use a Class 2 power source that supplies 9V DC

and delivers at least 400 mA.

STORING YOUR AREA CODE

You can store your local area code in the phone’s Caller ID record so it does not show the area code if the received call is from your local area. If for some reason you need to dial the area code (or store it in memory), you can add it afterwards. See “Adding/Deleting the Area Code” on Page 25.

Note:

If your calling area requires 10-digit dialing including area code, do not enter the area code but leave this option blank.

Follow these steps to store your area code.

You can use a handset holder (available from your local RadioShack store) to hang the handset on your belt for greater convenience. When you finish using the headset, disconnect it from the handset and close the rubber cover to protect the jack.

To connect the headset, open the rubber cover on the side of the handset, then insert the headset’s plug into the jack.

Notes:

• Connecting a headset disconnects the handset’s earpiece and microphone, but it does not affect the phone’s speakerphone.

Caller ID Operation (Handset Only)

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. Although the Caller ID memory is on the handset, it also records the call you receive on the speakerphone.

The phone displays this information when it receives a call, and it stores up to 80 Caller ID records — 40 each for both lines — for later review. It also shows if caller information is unavailable or if the name and number were blocked by the caller (see “Caller ID Messages”).

If you subscribe to Call Waiting with Caller ID, you will hear a tone through the handset when a call comes in, then the Caller ID record appears. If you want to answer the in-

ADDING/DELETING THE AREA CODE

When the area code of the received call is the same as the one you stored (see “Storing Your Area Code” on Page 15), the caller ID record does not show the area code. If it is different, the record shows the area code.

However, you can add or delete the area code on the display. When the record is on

the display, press code. Pressing 3 again deletes or adds the area code.

When you dial the number or store it into memory, the phone dials or stores the number as it appears on the display.

Troubleshooting

We do not expect you to have any problems with your phone, but if you do, the following suggestions might help.

Problem Suggestion

The phone does not work or works poorly.

The handset stops working or works poorly during a call.

Low volume of unusual sounds. Someone has picked up another phone on the same phone

Severe noise interference. Keep the handset and base away from computers, remote

The phone cannot be operated at a useful distance from the base because the signal becomes weak or noisy (handset’s range has decreased).

The handset battery pack does not charge.

Be sure the base’s phone line cord and AC adapter are correctly and securely connected.

Be sure the handset’s battery pack is connected and charged. Return the handset to the base for a few seconds to reset the

security access-protection code. Move the handset closer to the base. Lift the base’s antenna to a vertical position. Be sure the handset’s battery pack is charged. (If the battery

line. Hang up the other phone.

control toys, wireless microphones, alarm systems, intercoms, room monitors, fluorescent lights, and electrical appliances.

Move to another location or turn off the source of the interference.

Hang up and redial the number. Lift the base’s antenna to a vertical position. Be sure neither antenna is touching a metal surface. Recharge the battery pack.

Check the charging contacts on the handset and base. If they are dirty, clean them with a pencil eraser.

Be sure the battery pack is connected correctly (see “Connecting, Charging, and Replacing the Battery Pack” on Page 12).

Be sure the handset is properly seated on the base. Replace the battery pack.

Troubleshooting

Problem Suggestion

The handset does not ring or receive a page.

You have an incoming call, but do not receive any Caller ID information.

Lift the base’s antenna to a vertical position. Move the handset closer to the base. Move the handset and base away from other electrical

devices. Set the ringer volume to either high or low. Recharge the battery pack. If the base loses power while the handset is off of it, the secu-

rity access-protection code might change. Restore power to the base, then place the handset back on the base and leave it there for a few seconds.

Check the number of devices connected to your phone line and add up the RENs. See “Read This Before Installation” on Page 2.

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. Call your phone company to verify that your Caller ID service

is active.

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 your 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.

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. If your phone is not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance. If the trouble is affecting the telephone lines, the phone company can ask you to disconnect your phone until you have resolved the problem.
