INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! Y ou have purchased
one of the best performing cordless
telephones on the market! The
914 ADLi
cordless phone.

security code reset. This means that
one of more than 65 thousand possible
digital security codes is randomly
selected every time the handset is
placed in the base unit. The handset
and base unit will recognize each other
based on this security code which
minimizes the chances of another
cordless phone using your telephone
line. The base unit stores the current
security code and channel in memory
even if the unit is unplugged.
The VTECH 914 ADLi base unit
includes an Integrated Telephone
Answering Device (ITAD). The ITAD
uses digital memory to record
messages, eliminating the need for
cassette tapes. You can access your
messages from the base unit, or from
a remote location. All programming
and remote operation functions are
guided by a voice menu system.
