* 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 AWA Y FROM THE BASE UNIT.

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

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.
YOU HEAR NOISE IN THE HANDSET, AND NONE OF THE KEYS OR BUTTONS WORK.
* Make sure the power cord is plugged in. * Your 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.

FCC AND IC REGULATIONS
FCC AND IC REGULATIONS
This equipment complies with Parts 15 and 68 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules for the United States. It also complies with regulations RSS-210 and CS-03 of Industry Canada (IC).
A label is located on the underside of the base unit containing either the FCC registration number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) or the IC registration number and Load Number. You must, upon request, provide this information to your local telephone company.
This equipment is compatible with inductively coupled hearing aids.
FCC Part 15
Warning:Changes or modifications to this
unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
The equipment has been tested and found to comply with 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 and correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
* Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna.
* Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.
* Connect the equipment into an outlet or
on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
* Consult the dealer or an experienced
radio/TV technician for help.
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.
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 .
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.
