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 devic e, s uc h as a telephone or a nswering 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 bottom of your
phone.
If you use more than one phone or other device on the line, ad d u p all of the RENs. If th e
total is more than five (or three in rural areas), your telephones might not ring. If ringer
operation is impaired, remove a device from
the line.
Your phone complies with Part 68 of
. You must, upon request, provide the
Rules
FCC registration number and the REN to
your telephone company. Both numbers are
on the bottom of your phone.

IMPORTANT CALLER ID
INFORMATION
To use the phone's Caller ID and Call Waiting with Caller ID features, you m us t be in an
area where those services are available and
you must subscribe to those services
through your local phone company.
Where Caller ID is offered, one or more options are generally available:
• caller's number only
• caller's name only
• party-line systems
• most electronic key telephone systems
Important:
• Cordless phones such as this one
require AC power to operate. When the
AC power is off, you cannot dial out or
receive incoming calls using your
phone. For this reason, the phone
should not be your onl y tele pho ne. 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 fai l ure.
• Some cordless phones operate at frequencies that might cause interference
to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize
or prevent such interference, the ba se o f
the cordless p hon e should not be p lac ed
near or on top of a TV or VCR.
• Your cordless phone operates on standard radio frequencies, as allocated by
the FCC. Even though your phone's
access protection code prevents unauthorized use of your phone line, it i s p ossible for other radio units operating on
similar frequencies within a certain area
to unintent ionally inte rcept your conversations and/or cause interference. This
possible lack of privacy can occur with
any cordless phone.
THE FCC WANTS YOU TO
KNOW
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.

43-5521.fm Page 8 Monday, June 5, 2000 12:29 PM
Cautions:
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
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.
Note:
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.
The USOC number of the jack to be installed
is RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall plate jack).

to fully recharge.
• If the display is blank and the phone

low to light the display.)
• If you are not going to use your phone
for an extended period of time, disconnect the battery pac k. Th is i ncreases the
battery pack's usable life.
The supplied battery pack should last 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 socket in the battery compartment.
You can order a replacement battery pack
through your lo cal RadioShack store. Inst all
the new battery pack and charge it for about
24 hours.
Warning:
Dispose of the old battery pack
promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury it

ProblemSuggestion
You have an incoming call, but
do not receive any Caller ID
information.
Let the phone ring twice before you answer so the phone has time to
record the Caller ID information.
Check that the phone is correctly and securely connected.
Check with 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 the phone to
your local Ra dioShack store for assistance.
