Use the clear voicemail feature when the telephone indicates that there is new
voicemail but there is none (for example, when you have accessed your voicemail
from a different telephone line while away from home). Clearing the voicemail

About caller ID
The caller ID with call waiting feature in this telephone lets you see the name and
telephone number of the caller before answering the call, even when already on a
call. These features require services provided by your local telephone company.
Contact your telephone company if:
you have both caller ID and call waiting, but as separate services (you may need
•
combined service),
•
you have only caller ID service, or only call waiting service, or
you do not subscribe to any caller ID or call waiting services but wish to
•
subscribe.
You can use this telephone with regular caller ID service, and you can use its
other features without subscribing to either caller ID or combined caller ID with
call waiting service. There may be fees for these services, and these services
may not be available in all areas.
The caller ID features will work only if both you and the caller are in areas offering
caller ID service, and if both telephone companies use compatible equipment.

Due to regional

differences,
the caller ID
information may
not be available

Call log
If you subscribe to caller ID service, information about each
caller will be displayed after the rst or second ring.
The call log can store up to 50 entries. Each entry may have
•
up to 24 digits for the phone number and 15 characters for
the name. If the phone number has more than 24 digits, it
will not be saved or displayed in the call log. If the phone
number has more than 15 but fewer than 24 digits, only the
last 15 digits will be shown. If the name is longer than 15
characters, only the rst 15 characters will be shown and
saved in the call log.
You can rev iew, redia l, and copy an entr y into the
•
directory.
Entries are displayed in reverse chronological order, i.e.
•
from the most recent entry to the earliest entry.
When the call log is full, the earliest entry is deleted to make
•
room for new incoming call information.

Maintenance
Taking care of your telephone
Your cordless 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 the
telephone base near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic equipment. For your own safety, take caution when using electrical
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.
Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when you are wet or standing in the water. If the telephone base should
fall into the 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.

About cordless telephones
Privacy: The same features that make a cordless telephone convenient create some limitations. Telephone calls are transmitted between
•
the telephone base and the cordless handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that the cordless telephone conversations could be
intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless handset. For this reason, you should not think of cordless telephone
conversations as being as private as those on corded telephones.
Electrical power: The telephone base of this cordless telephone must be connected to a working electrical outlet. The electrical outlet
•
should not be controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the cordless handset if the telephone base is unplugged or switched
off, or if the electrical power is interrupted.
Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause inter ference to televisions and VCRs. To
•
minimize or prevent such interference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless telephone near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference
is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.
Rechargeable batteries: This product contains either nickel-cadmium or nickel-metal-hydride rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in
•
handling batteries in order not to create a shor t circuit with conducting material such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor
may overheat and cause harm. Observe proper polarity between the battery and the battery charger.
Nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries: Dispose of these batteries in a safe manner. Do not burn or puncture the batter y. Like
•
other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injur y.
The RBRC® seal
The RBRC® seal on the nickel-metal-hydride battery indicates that VTech Communications, Inc. is voluntarily participating
in an industry program to collect and recycle these batteries at the end of their useful lives, when taken out of service
