Your telephone equipment is registered with the Federal Communications Commission and is in compliance
with parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.
1 Notification to the Local Telephone Company
On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other information, the FCC Registration number
and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for the equipment. You must, upon request, provide this information
to your telephone company.
The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may connect to your telephone line and still have
all of these devices ring when your telephone number is called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the
RENs of all devices connected to one line should not exceed 5. To be certain of the number of devices you may
connect to your line as determined by the REN, you should contact your local telephone company.
Notes
• This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company.
• Party lines are subject to state tariffs, and therefore, you may not be able to use your own telephone
equipment if you are on a party line. Check with your local telephone company.
• Notice must be given to the telephone company upon permanent disconnection of your telephone from
your line.
2 Rights of the Telephone Company
Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may harm the telephone network, the telephone
company shall, where practicable, notify you that temporary discontinuance of service may be required.
Where prior notice is not practicable and the circumstances warrant such action, the telephone company may
temporarily discontinue service immediately. In case of such temporary discontinuance, the telephone
company must: (1) promptly notify you of such temporary discontinuance; (2) afford you the opportunity to
correct the situation; and (3) inform you of your right to bring a complaint to the Commission pursuant to
procedures set forth in Subpart E of Part 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.
The telephone company may make changes in its communications facilities, equipment, operations of
procedures where such action is required in the operation of its business and not inconsistent with FCC Rules
and Regulations. If these changes are expected to affect the use or performance of your telephone equipment,
the telephone company must give you adequate notice, in writing, to allow you to maintain uninterrupted service.
INTERFERENCE INFORMATION
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This
device may not cause harmful interference; and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna (that is, the antenna for radio or television that is “receiving” the
interference).
• Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the telecommunications equipment and receiving
antenna.
• Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiving antenna is connected.
If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult your dealer or an experienced radio/
television technician for additional suggestions. Also, the Federal Communications Commission has
prepared a helpful booklet, “How To Identify and Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is
available from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Please specify stock number
004-000-00345-4 when ordering copies.

least one phone in your home that is not cordless, in case the power in your home
goes out.

MODULAR JACK REQUIREMENTS
You need an RJ11 type modular jack, which is the most
common type of phone jack and might look like the one
pictured here. If you don’t have a modular jack, call your
local phone company to find out how to get one installed.
DIGITAL SECURITY SYSTEM
Your cordless phone uses a digital security system to provide protection
against false ringing, unauthorized access, and charges to your phone line.
When you place the handset in the base, the unit verifies its security code.
After a power outage, you should place the handset in the base for about
30 seconds to reset the code.
INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that
may cause interference 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. If interference continues, moving the cordless telephone
farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.

DESKTOP INSTALLATION
1. Make sure mounting bracket is securely fastened.
2. Set RINGER switch (on the handset) to ON.
3. Plug the power supply cord into the POWER 9V DC jack on the base and
into an AC outlet.
4. Place handset in the base to charge for 12 hours. The CHARGE light (on
the base) comes on to indicate that the battery is charging. If you don’t
charge the handset battery properly (for 12 hours) when you
first set up the phone, performance of the battery will be
compromised.
5. Plug the telephone line cord into the TEL LINE jack on the base and into
a modular jack.
6. Raise the base antenna.
NOTE : The phone automatically defaults to touch-tone dialing. To change to
pulse (rotary) dialing, see “Tone/Pulse Dialing”. If you don’t know which type
of service you have, check with the phone company.
CAUTION: Use only the Thomson 5-4081 power supply that is compatible
with this unit. Using other power supplies may damage the unit.
7
WALL MOUNT INSTALLATION
Because it is necessary to charge
the handset for 12 hours prior to
connecting the phone for use the
first time, it is better to leave the
unit on a flat surface during initial
charge before attempting to hang it
on the wall.
1. Make sure the mounting bracket
is securely fastened.
2. Set RINGER switch to ON.
3. Place the handset in the base.
4. Connect the power supply cord
into the base and the other end
into an AC outlet. The CHARGE
light comes on, indicating the
battery is charging.
Allow the phone to charge
for 12 hours before using the
first time. If you don't
charge the phone properly
when you first set up the
phone, performance of the
battery will be compromised.

5. Remove the mounting bracket.
Rotate it so that the bottom of
the phone is flat. Reattach the
mounting bracket by inserting
the tabs into the slots on the top
of the unit first, and then
snapping the bottom tabs into
place.
6. Plug the short telephone line
cord into the jack marked TEL
LINE on the back of the unit and
plug the other end into a
modular wall jack.
7. Slip the mounting holes over
the wall plate posts and slide
the unit down firmly into place.
(Wall plate not included.)
8. Remove the handset hook; turn
it upside down, and put it back
in the slot. You need to do this
so the handset doesn’t fall out
of the base.
9. Raise the base antenna.
NOTE : The phone automatically
defaults to touch-tone dialing. To
change to pulse (rotary) dialing,
see “Tone/Pulse Dialing”. If you
don’t know which type of service
you have, check with the phone
company.
