CALLER ID
Your
VTech 912 ADLc
telephone is capable of displaying the
name and number of the person calling,
before you answer the phone.
The unit is designed to store and
display specific information provided by
your local telephone company to
subscribers of the “Caller Information
and Identification Service” (Caller ID).
When Caller ID service is active, your
telephone company transmits certain
information between the first and
second ring of each call. This
information includes the telephone
number and name of the caller as well
as the date and time of the call.
For example:
NUMBER ONLY:
NAME AND NUMBER:
cordless
Caller ID service is based a relatively
new technology. In some areas, Caller
ID service is not fully supported, or not
offered at all. Caller ID may not work
properly in some areas due to local
telephone company limitations and/or
equipment incompatibility.

Caller ID information is displayed on
the Base LCD module. Each ICON has
a specific function.

enabling you to identify the calling party
without having to answer the call.
Simultaneously, this information is
stored in memory for review at a later
time.
You must be in an area where Caller
ID service is available and you must
subscribe to this service to use this
feature.
Call Counter (CALL#)
This two digit counter indicates the
position of CID record relative to other
records stored in CID memory.
Repeat Counter (RPT#)
This digit counter is used to indicate
when a specific call has been received
more than once. If a call had been
received twice, the RPT# counter
would show a 1. The repeat counter is
only active during Caller ID review
when a repeat call comes in.

capacity to hold up to 99 Caller ID
records for review. If you have 99 calls
stored in memory and you receive
another call, the oldest call record is
automatically dropped from the record
to make room for the new Caller ID
information.
When an incoming call occurs, the
base will automatically display the
Caller ID information. All unanswered
calls are considered new calls. The unit
keeps track of all new calls. The NEW
CALL icon is turned on, and upon
returning to clock mode ,the New Call
LED will begin to flash and the number
of new calls and total calls are
displayed on the LCD.
For example, suppose you were not at

MAINTENANCE
TAKING CARE OF YOUR
TELEPHONE.
Your
VTech 912 ADLc
telephone contains sophisticated
electronic parts so it must be treated
with care.
Avoid rough treatment
Place the handset down gently. Save
the original packing materials to protect
your telephone if you ever need to ship
it.
Avoid water
Your telephone can be damaged if it
gets wet. Do not use the handset
outdoors in the rain, or handle it with
wet hands. Do not install your base
unit near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Remember that electrical appliances
can cause serious injury if used when
you are wet or standing in water. If
your base unit should fall into water,
DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU
UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND
TELEPHONE LINE CORDS FROM
THE WALL. Then pull the unit out by
the unplugged cords.
cordless
Electrical storms
Electrical storms can sometimes cause
power surges harmful to electronic
equipment.
For your own safety , use caution when
using electric appliances during storms.
Cleaning your telephone
Your telephone has a durable plastic
casing that should retain its luster for
many years. Clean it only with a soft
cloth slightly dampened with water or
a mild soap. Do not use excess water
or cleaning solvents of any kind.
25
IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY
If you have difficulty operating your
phone, the suggestions below should
solve the problem. If you still have
difficulty after trying these suggestions,
In the US call:
VTECH Communications at
1-800-624-5688.
THE PHONE DOESN’T WORK AT
ALL.
• Make sure the power cord is plugged
in.
• Make sure the telephone line cord is
plugged firmly into the base unit and
the telephone wall jack.
• Make sure the batteries are properly
charged. If the Low Battery
indicator is on, the battery needs
charging. If the IN USE indicators
do not light when you press PHONE,
you must charge the batteries.
• If you recently installed a new battery
pack, make sure it is installed
correctly.
NO DIAL TONE.
• First check all the suggestions
above.
• If you still don’t hear a dial tone,
disconnect the base unit from the
telephone jack and connect a
different phone. If there is no dial
tone on that phone either, the
problem is in your wiring or local
service. Call your local telephone
company.
YOU GET NOISE, STATIC, OR A
WEAK SIGNAL EVEN WHEN
YOU’RE NEAR THE BASE UNIT.
• Place the handset in the base
momentarily to re-set the security
code. Then press PHONE to get a
line.
Household appliances plugged into the
same circuit as the base unit can
sometimes cause interference. Try
moving the appliance or the base unit
to another outlet.
YOU GET NOISE, STATIC, OR A
WEAK SIGNAL WHEN YOU’RE
AWAY FROM THE BASE UNIT.
• You may be out of range. Either
move close to the base, or relocate
the base unit.
• The layout of your home may be
limiting the range. Try moving the
base unit to the second or third floor,
or to some other location.
THE HANDSET DOES NOT RING
WHEN YOU RECEIVE A CALL.
• Ensure that the ringer is turned on.
• Make sure the telephone line cord is
plugged firmly into the base unit and
the telephone jack. Make sure the
power cord is plugged in.
• You may be too far from the base unit.
• You may have too many extension
phones on your telephone line to
allow all of them to ring. Try
unplugging some of the other
phones.
YOUR CALLER FADES IN AND OUT.
You may be nearly out of range. Move
closer, or relocate the base.
YOU HEAR OTHER CALLS WHILE
USING YOUR PHONE.
• Replace the handset in the base
cradle, wait a few moments and try
again.
• Disconnect your base unit from the
telephone jack, and plug in a regular
telephone. If you still hear other calls,
the problem is probably in your wiring
or local service. Call your local
telephone company.
26
IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY
YOU HEAR NOISE IN THE HANDSET, AND NONE OF THE KEYS OR
BUTTONS WORK.
• Make sure the power cord is plugged
in.
• Y our base unit and handset may not
be operating on the same channel
or security code. Place the handset
in the cradle for a few moments to
reload the security code and reset
the channel.
COMMON CURE FOR ELECTRONIC
EQUIPMENT
Electronics, like people, can
sometimes get confused. If the unit
does not seem to be responding
normally, then try putting the handset
in the cradle to re-initialize the unit. If
it still does not seem to respond,
perform the following steps (in the order
listed):
1. Disconnect the power to the base.
2. Disconnect the handset battery.
3. Wait a few minutes.
4. Connect power to the base.
5. Connect the handset battery.
6. Put the handset in the base to re-
initialize.

FCC REGULATIONS
FCC Part 68
The FCC requires that you connect
your cordless telephone to the
nationwide telephone network through
a modular telephone jack (USOC
RJ11C or RJ11W).
Your telephone company may
discontinue your service if your
equipment causes harm to the
telephone network. They will notify you
in advance of disconnection, if
possible. During notification, you will
be informed of your right to file a
complaint with the FCC.
Occasionally, your telephone company
may make changes in its facilities,
equipment, operation, or procedures
that could affect the operation of your
equipment. If so, you will be given
advance notice of the change to give
you an opportunity to maintain
uninterrupted service.
The base unit contains no user
serviceable parts. The handset
contains a user replaceable battery
pack.
The REN is useful in determining the
number of devices you may connect
to your telephone line and still enable
the devices to ring when you receive a
call. The general rule is that the REN
value should not exceed 5.0 total;
however, contact your local telephone
company for the specific number in
your area.
If it is determined that your telephone
equipment is malfunctioning, the FCC
requires that it not be used and that it
be unplugged from the modular jack
until the problem has been corrected.
Repairs to this telephone equipment
can only be made by the manufacturer
or its authorized agents or by others
who may be authorized by the FCC.
For repair procedures, follow the
instructions outlined under the VTECH
Limited Warranty.
This equipment may not be used on
coin service provided by the phone
company or Party Lines.
