Choose the best location
Where you place the base unit affects the reception quality of the
handset.
Away from television
sets and other
electronic equipment
Near a central location
and on a level surface
CAUTION: • Should you experience intermittent loss of audio during a conversation, try
moving closer to the base or move base unit away from other noise sources.
• The cordless telephone operates at a frequency that may cause interference to
nearby TVs and VCRs; the base unit should not be placed near or on the top of
a TV or VCR; and, if interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone
farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the
US

interference.

Step 3: Preparing the battery pack (continued)
Battery duration
A fully charged battery pack lasts for about:
• Approx. 2.5 hours when you use the handset continuously
• Approx. 7 days when the handset is in standby mode.
Notes
• The battery pack will gradually discharge over a long period of time, even if
not in use.
• If you leave the battery pack in the handset without charging it, the battery
pack will be completely discharged.
It may require several times of charging to recover to its full capacity.
• While charging, the battery pack warms up. This is not a malfunction.
To obtain the best performance from the battery
Do not place the handset on the base unit after each call. The battery
works best if the handset is returned to the base unit after two or three
calls. However, do not leave the handset off the base unit for a long
period of time as this will completely discharge the battery pack.
When to purchase a new battery pack
If the battery lasts only a few minutes even after 12 hours of charging,
the usable life of the battery has expired and needs replacement.
Contact your local Sony authorized dealer or service center, and ask
for Sony BP-T31 rechargeable battery pack.
Note
Battery life may vary depending on usage condition and ambient temperature.
Handset spare battery usage
As only one battery pack is supplied with this unit, it is necessary to
purchase an additional battery pack (optional) for use as a handset
spare battery pack.
1
Open the battery compartment
lid of the base unit.
2
Insert the battery pack
(optional) into the battery

Step 4
Entering the area code
When you use this phone for the first time, or move to an area
that has a different area code, you must enter the area code.
Otherwise, you cannot use some functions of this phone and the
Caller ID functions.
This is also necessary because the phone must be able to select an
area code to properly dial call from the Caller ID list.
Depending on your region, enter 3-digit area code as follows:
Case 1.
If 7-digit dialing (no area code) is accepted for local calls in your area,
see “To enter your home area code” below.
If you live in an area where calls from or to other local areas can also be made
by 10-digit dialing (area code + number), you can register up to 5 local area
codes with this telephone to take advantage of this system. See “To enter the
local area code (For 10 digits phone number users)” on page 15.
Case 2.
If 10-digit dialing (area code + number) is required for all local calls in
your area, see “To enter the local area code (For 10 digits phone

Caller ID Features
Understanding the Caller ID service
Caller ID allows the caller’s phone number to be shown on the display
before you answer the call. In order to use this feature, you must first
subscribe to Caller ID service. The name of this service may vary
depending on your telephone company.
To use this feature, be sure to enter the area code (see page 14).
When you receive a call
The phone number appears on the display with the date and time as
shown in the following example.
If your Caller ID service includes the caller name service, the caller’s
name also appears on the display (up to 15 letters).
Caller’s name
Caller’s phone number
The date and time received
When you answer the call, the Caller ID display changes to the
“TALK” display.
Notes
• The caller’s phone number and/or name will not appear in the following
cases:
- “OUT OF AREA”: when the call is made through a telephone company
which does not offer Caller ID service (including international calls).
- “PRIVATE”: when the call is “blocked”. For privacy reasons, many states
allow callers the option to prevent his or her telephone data from being
displayed on the other party’s Caller ID display.
• If the call is from an office which uses multiple lines, the displayed phone
number may not match the number you use to call the extension.
About the memory match function
If you receive a call from a phone number which is stored on one of the
ONE-TOUCH DIAL buttons (see page 26) or in the Phone Directory
(see page 28), the ringer sound will change to a higher tone from the
second ring.
Note
The memory match function does not work with “OUT OF AREA” or “PRIVATE”
calls; and it may not work with calls made from an office which uses multiple lines
because the number does not always match the one you stored in this phone.

Using “Caller ID with call waiting”
service
This telephone is compatible with the “Caller ID with call waiting”
service. Make sure that your telephone company offers this service.
Like the basic Caller ID service, you need to subscribe to “Caller ID
with call waiting” in order to use this service.
Even though you may have already subscribed to “Caller ID” and
“call waiting” as two separate services, you need to request asubscription to “Caller ID with call waiting” as a single service.
This is a new service that combines the two services.
Even though you now have a “Caller ID with call waiting”
compatible phone, unless you subscribe to the combined “Caller ID
with call waiting” service, you will not be able to see the name
and number of the second caller.
When a new call comes in while you are talking, the caller’s name
and/or phone number of the new call appears on the display for about
20 seconds.
To switch to another caller
1
To switch to the new caller,
press (CALL WAITING/FLASH).
2
To switch back to the first caller,
press (CALL WAITING/FLASH)
again.

DISASSEMBLY
Note: Follow the disassembly procedure in the numerical order given.
2-1. CABINET (REAR)(HANDSET)2-2. HAND MAIN BOARD (HANDSET)
This system realizes the TX/RX superframe by TDD system. The
relation of master/slave dose not decide identification re garding the
protocol between BASE UNIT and HANDSET, but the initiated
side is the master and the requested side is the slave when the RF
link has been established.
2. Initial Acquisition
In order to establish the RF link between BASE UNIT and
HANDSET , both of B ASE UNIT and HANDSET need to ha v e the
same system ID. When “power” is a pplied to this system, the system
have to do Initial Acquisition in order to have the same system ID.
It is to exchange a parameter when the HANDSET is parked on the
BASE UNIT, as soon as the system do System Parameters Reinitialization.
3. System Parameter Re-initialization
This System Parameters Re-initialization can realize that the
HANDSET is parked on the BASE UNIT . So after the B ASE UNIT
recognized to be parked the HANDSET , the BASE UNIT calculates
a system parameter, and then it outputs this data from the ARTO
port, and then the system establishes the RF link. In order to establish
this link, the HANDSET send the A-Frame to the B ASE UNIT after
the HANDSET received the system parameter , and then the BASE
UNIT send the A-Frame to the HANDSET. The process of System
Parameters Re-initialization is as follows.

4. Stand-by Mode Operation
(1) HANDSET
When the HANDSET is the stand-by mode (sleep mode), the
HANDSET do the intermittent operation for power save, because
the HANDSET is the battery operation.
This process of stand-by mode operation is as follows.

Fig. 3-2. Stand-by mode operation (HANDSET)
(2) BASE UNIT
The BASE UNIT is supplied the power by AC line. While the
BASE UNIT is the stand-by , the B ASE UNIT is al ways a wake
state. While the BASE UNIT monitors the current channel, the
BASE UNIT monitors also the other channel at the same time
Because if the current channel can not use by some interference,
the system needs the clear channel information as a part of
system parameter for a channel hop.
If the BASE UNIT can not receive the A-Frame of Heart-beat
from the HANDSET, it become “link error”, and the system
become error recovery mode.
