Congratulations

Your Sanyo 900-MHz COMPANDER PLUS cordless telephone is a fine-quality home communications product. It is carefully designed and produced by a world leader of consumer and industrial electronics equipment. With proper maintenance and care, it will provide you with years of enjoyment and convenience.

Main features:

900-MHz Technology

Superior Range - The use of 900-MHz frequency band for signal transmission

between base and handset means greater communication range compared to conventional 43—49 MHz cordless telephones. In normal situations, approximately 4 times greater distance can be achieved. Ultra-Low Noise - The high frequency communication has also significantly reduced noise level. 40-Channel Auto Scan - Your new telephone uses one of 40 channels in the 900-MHz frequency band. It automatically selects a clear channel every time you receive or place a call on the handset. Should you wish to switch channels during a call, the handset provides a SCAN button.

COMPANDER PLUS Noise Reduction

This fourth generation of the Sanyo’s original noise reduction technology now filters out more background noise.

LCD Display and Call Manager Features* on Handset

The backlit LCD display on the handset is compatible with many special services offered by your telephone company, including Caller ID, Visual Call Waiting and Call Waiting Option services*. When you subscribe to these services, you can see the caller’s name/number on the display before you answer a call, or even when you’re already on the phone. The callers list memory of this telephone keeps a log of as many as 30 recent callers, which you can review on the display. The display also shows the number you dial, date/time and operation prompts. Display language is English or French selectible.

*Require a subscription. Please ask your telephone company for more details.

30-Name/Number Directory

You can program 30 telephone numbers, together with each party’s name, into the directory memory. You can transfer numbers saved in the Caller ID log to the directory, view the directory name/number list on the handset display, and dial out the number on display at the touch of a button.

Handsfree Speakerphones and Dual Keypad

Handsfree speakerphone is included on both cordless handset and base station. With a dialing keypad on both units, the CLT 9389 is like two telephones, and serves you as an intercom or 2-way pager.

Power Failure Backup System

This unique feature allows you to place or receive a call on the cordless telephone during a power interruption of up to 20 hours. Four AA batteries are required (not supplied with the telephone).

Read this information carefully before installing and operating your cordless telephone.

Check to make sure you have all the items that come with the telephone. Handset with rechargeable battery

Base station

DESCRIPTION

Cordless telephones operate on the same principle as a two-way radio. The location of the base station determines the range of operation. In most homes, maximum range is obtained by locating the base station at the highest point in the house.

The base station operates from a 120 V AC electrical outlet. Connect the base station to a telephone line by simply plugging it into a standard telephone jack. The handset is powered by a heavy-duty rechargeable battery. This SANYO cordless telephone is hearing-aid compatible.

CAUTION

Charge the handset battery pack before using the cordless phone for the first time. Do not attempt to use the phone before charging the battery pack for a full 10 hours.

• Match the polarities (+ and – signs) on batteries to the polarities shown inside

the battery case.

• Do not mix new batteries with old or used ones.

• Only use batteries of the same type and brand.

• If the unit is not to be used for an extended period of time, remove the batteries

from the unit.

• Carefully follow the battery manufacturer's instructions for proper use and

disposal.

• DO NOT ALLOW YOUNG CHILDREN TO HANDLE BATTERIES.

You can view the list on the display by scrolling through it, and call back the caller shown on the list at the touch of a button. You can also transfer any number to the 30-number directory memory.

If neither caller’s name or number is available, it will indicate the reason. This varies, depending on the type of call and where it originated. Some display examples are shown on the next page.

The caller information display remains until you hang up or press a dialing button. Caller information will not appear in the event of a power failure.

If the handset is on the base station, pressing turns on the handset speakerphone.

However, if you wish to set your own security code, follow the steps below.

Technical Information

Ren Number: 0.2

The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) assigned to each terminal device provides an indication of the maximum number of terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone interface. The termination on an interface may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the Ringer Equivalence Numbers of all the devices does not exceed 5.

Miniature Connector Type Code: CA11A

CAUTION This product is intended for use in CANADA only. Sale or use in other countries may violate local laws.

Cordless telephones use radio frequencies to allow mobility. This affects the performance of your unit.

1. NOISE

Electrical pulse noise is present in most homes at one time or another. This is most intense during electrical storms. Certain kinds of electrical equipment, such as light dimmers, fluorescent bulbs, motors, fans, etc., also generate pulse noise. Because radio frequencies are susceptible to this, you may on occasion hear pulse noise through the handset. This is usually only a minor annoyance and should not be interpreted as a defect of the unit.

2. RANGE

Because radio frequencies are used, the location of the base station can affect the operating range of the unit. Try several locations and choose the one that gives the clearest signal to the handset. (Turning in a circle while holding the handset may also increase the operating range.)

3. INTERFERENCE

Electronic circuits activate a relay to connect the unit to your telephone line. These electronic circuits operate in the radio frequency spectrum. While several protection circuits are used to prevent unwanted signals, there may be periods when these unwanted signals enter the base station. You may hear click or hear the relay activate when you are not using the cordless handset. If this occurs frequently, you can minimize or eliminate the problem by lowering the height of the base station or relocating the base station. It may also be helpful to change the operating channel and/or the security code setting.

NOTICE:

Privacy of communications may not be ensured when using this telephone. Other devices, including other cordless telephones, may interfere with the operation of this cordless telephone or cause noise during operation. Units without coded access may be accessed by other radio communication systems. Cordless telephones must not cause interference to any licensed radio service.

The Industry Canada Label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational and safety requirements. The ministry does not guarantee that the equipment will operate to the user's satisfaction.

Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of construction. In some cases, the company's inside wiring associated with single-line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.

Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request that the user disconnect the equipment.

The user should ensure for his own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.

CAUTION Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
