Important: Cordless phones such as this one require AC power to operate. When the AC power is off, you cannot dial out or recei ve incoming calls using your ET-1110. For t his reason, the ET­1110 cordless phone s houl d not be y our only telephone. To be saf e, 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.
Your telephone operates on standard ra­dio frequencies as allocated by the FCC. Even though the access prot ectio n code prevents unauthorized use of your phone line, it is possible for other radio units op­erating on similar frequencies within a certain area to unintentionally intercept your conversations and/or cause inter­ference. This lack of privacy can occur with any cordless phone.
READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLATION
Each device that you connect to the phone line draws po wer from the phone line. We refer to this power draw as the device’s REN. The REN is on the bottom of the base.
If you are using more than one phone or other device on t he line, add up all the RENs. If the total is more than five, your phone might not ring. In rural areas, a to­tal REN of three might impair ringer oper­ation. If ringer operation is impaired, remove a device from the line.

CONNECTING AND CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
The ET-1110 comes with a rechargeable nickel-cadmium battery pack in the handset but not connected. Before using your phone, you must connect the bat­tery pack and then charge it for about 15 hours.
1. Press down and slide off the com­partment cover as shown.
2. Plug the battery pack’s connector into the socket i n the compartment. The connector fits only one way.
To charge the battery pack, simply place the handset on the base. The CHARGE indicator on the base lights.
CHARGE Indicator
Recharge the battery pack when appears on the handset’s display.
Low Battery Indicator
Notes:
• You can place the handset on the base face down or face up without removing the belt clip. If you want to use the hanging hole on the back of the handset to place the handset on the wall-mounted base face-up, re­move the belt clip (see “Removing the Belt Clip” on Page 27). However, the battey pack will not fully charge in this positio n.
Note:
For easier battery pack con­nection, lift it out of the compart­ment, insert its connector into the socket, then replace the battery pack inside the compartment.
3. Replace the cover.
• When you first use the phone after charging or recharging the battery pack, the phone might not work a nd you might hear an error tone when you press turn the handset to the base for about 6 seconds. This resets the se­curity access protection code.

43-111 0.fm Page 14 Wedn e sday, August 18, 1999 8:22 A M
• If the CHARGE indicator does not light when you place the handset on the base, be sure the battery pack and AC adapter are correctly and securely connected.
Also, check the charging contacts on the handset and the base. If the contacts are dirty or tarnished, clean them with a pencil eraser.
If the battery and AC connections are correct and secure and the charging contacts are clean, the bat­tery might be fully charged. This is not a malfunciton.
• About once a mo nth, fully discharge the battery pack by keeping the handset off the base until ap­pears. Otherwise, the battery pack loses its ability to full y rec h ar ge .
• To avoid damage to the battery pack, always recha rge the handset before battery power grows too weak to light .
• If you are not going to use your phone for an extended period of time, disconnect the battery pack. This increases the battery pack’s usable life.
• The supplied battery pack should last for about a year. When it loses its ability to fully recharge, order a replacement battery pack from your local RadioShack store (see “Re­placing the Battery Pack” on Page 31).
• If the battery pack gets completely discharged or the base loses power while the handset is away from it, the security access-protection code needs to be reset. To reset the secu­rity code, place the handset on the base. If it was the handset that lost power, leave the handset on the base to charge the battery pack.
• If the battery pack gets weak during a call, the handset sounds 4 beeps every 30 seconds. If this happens, you cannot make another call on the phone until you recharge the battery pack.

USING A HEADSET
You can make or answer calls with hands-free convenience using an option­al headset that has a plug. We recommend RadioShack Cat. No. 43-195 (not supplied), which is spe­cially designed for use with the ET-1110.
Follow these steps to use a headset.
1. I nsert the head set’s plug into the jack on the top of the handset.
2. Place the headset on your head with the earpiece over either ear and ad­just the microphone boom until it is about even with your chin.

/32-inch (2.5 mm)
REMOVING THE BELT CLIP
The belt clip on the back of the handset lets you hang on the belt for easy porta­bility. But to us e t he ha nging hol e o n the back of the handset to place the handset on the wall-mounted base face-up, you must remove the belt clip.
Insert a flat-blade screwdriver into either side of the belt clip, then pull off it.
To replace the belt clip, insert either tab of the belt clip into one slot of t he hand­set, then snap the other tab into other slot of the handset.
3. Hang the belt blip on your belt.
4. M ake or receive calls as you would normally.
Notes
:
• Connecting a headset disconnects the handset’s earpiece and micro­phone.
• If you place the handset on the base to recharge it while the headset is connected, be sure the handset seats properly.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your ET-1110 900 MHz 20-Channel Analog Cordless Telephone is an example of su­perior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for your phone so you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the phone dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids can contain minerals that corrode the electronic circuits.
Handle the phone gen tly and c arefully. Dropp ing i t can dam age circuit boards and cases and cause the phone to work improperly.
Use and store the phone only in normal temperature environments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices and distort or melt plastic parts.
Keep the phone away from dust and dirt which can cause premature wear of parts.
Wipe the phone with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean your phone.
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 shoul d, take it to y our local Radi oS hac k store for as sis­tance. If the trouble is affecting the phone lines, the phone company might ask you to disconnect your phone until you have resolved the problem.

REPLACING THE BATTERY PACK
If you follow the instructions in “Connect­ing and Charging the Battery Pack” on Page 13, the battery pack should last about one year. If the battery does not hold a charge for more than 2 hours after an overnight charge, replace the ba ttery with a new 3.6 volt, 600 milliamp battery 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 as described below, then charge the battery pack for about 15 hours (see “Connecting and Charging the Battery Pack” on Page 13).
Note
: To avoid losing information stored in memory, try to install and begin charg­ing the new battery pack within 2–3 min­utes.
1. Press down and slide off the cover.
2. G ently pull on the battery pack con­nector to disconnect it, then remo ve the battery pack.
Cautions:
• You must use a replaceme nt battery pack of the same size and type, with the proper connector.
• Do not dispose of the battery pack in a fire because it might explode.
• Do not open or mutilate the battery pack.
• Be careful not to short the battery pack by touching it with conducting materials, such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery pack or c on­ductor might overheat and burn.
If you have trouble replacing the battery pack, take the phone to your local Ra­dioShack store for assistance.
Important:
chargeable nickel cadmium battery pack. At the end of the battery pack’s useful life, it must be recycled or disposed of properly. Contact your local, county, or state hazardous waste management au­thorities for information on recycling or disposal programs in your area. Some options that might be available are: mu­nicipal curb-side collection, drop-off box­es at retailers such as your local RadioShack store, recycling collection centers, and mail-back programs.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW
In the unlikely event that your phone causes problems on t he 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 no t 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.
Your phone might cause TV or radio in­terference even when it is operating properly. To determine whether your phone is causing the interference, turn off your phone. If the interference goes away, your phone is causing the interfer­ence. Try to eliminate the interference by:
If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your phone.
Some cordless telephones operate on frequencies that may c ause i nte rference 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.
LIGHTNING
Your telephone has built-in lightning pro­tection to reduce the risk of damage from surges in telephone line and powe r line current. This lightning protection meets or exceeds FCC requirements. However, lightning striking the telephone or power lines can damage your telephone.
Lightning damage is not common. Nev­ertheless, if you live an area that has se­vere electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug your phone during storm s to reduce the possibility of damage.
• Moving your phone away from the receiver
• Connecting your phone to an AC outlet that is on a different electrical circuit from the receiver
• Contacting your local RadioShack store for help
