Internet calling
To make and receive Internet calls,
you must use the enclosed CD-ROM
to install the required software on to
your computer (see page 9). You
may also be required to establish a
Skype Out account to make Internet
calls to standard telephones. There
may be fees for this service. For
more information, please visit
www.skype.com.
Telephone operating range
This cordless telephone operates
with the maximum power allowed
by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC). Even so, this
handset and base can communicate
over only a certain distance —
which can vary with the locations of
the base and handset, the weather,
and the construction of your home
or office.

base, periodically pressing OFF until
the call is disconnected.
About Caller Identification
Caller ID with Call Waiting features
let you see who’s calling before you
answer the phone, even when
you’re on another call. (This feature
works only with standard calls, not
Internet calls, and requires services
provided by your local telephone
company.)
Contact your telephone service
provider 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
• You don’t subscribe to any Caller
ID or Call Waiting services.
You can use this phone 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
they may not be available in all areas.
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.
See Caller ID Operation, beginning
on page 22, for more details about
how these features work.

• You may be out of range. Move the handset closer to the base.
• Appliances plugged into the same circuit as the base can cause
interference. Try moving the appliance or base to another outlet.
• The layout of your home or office might be limiting the operating range.
Try moving the base to another location, preferably on an upper floor.
• If the buttons don’t work, try placing the handset in the base for at least
15 seconds.
• Disconnect the base from the modular jack and plug in a corded telephone. If calls are still not clear, the problem is probably in your wiring or
local service. Call your local telephone service company.
• If only Internet calls do not ring, make sure your computer is on,
connected to the Internet, and all required software is running.
• Make sure the ringer for the non-ringing line is on (see page 15).
• Make sure the telephone line cord and AC adapter are plugged in properly (see page 5).
• Move the handset closer to the base.
• You might have too many extension phones on your telephone line to
allow all of them to ring. Try unplugging some of them.
• If the error message “Not Registered” is displayed, return the handset to
the base. If the error message remains after 60 seconds, you will have to
manually re-register the handset (see next page).

Care and maintenance
Your cordless telephone contains sensitive 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.
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.

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 and ACTA Information
If this equipment was approved for connection
to the telephone network prior to July 23, 2001,
it complies with Part 68 of the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) rules. If
the equipment was approved after that date, it
complies with the Part 68 rules and with
Technical Requirements for Connection of
Equipment to the Telephone Network adopted
by the Administrative Council for Terminal
Attachments (ACTA). We are required to provide you with the following information.
1. Product identifier and REN information
The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among other things, an identifier
indicating product approval and the Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN). This information
must be provided to your local telephone company upon request. For equipment approved
prior to July 23, 2001, the product identifier is
preceded by the phrase “FCC Reg No.” and the
REN is listed separately. For equipment
approved after that date, the product identifier is
preceded by “US” and a colon (:), and the REN
is encoded in the product identifier without a
decimal point as the sixth and seventh characters following the colon. For example, the product identifier US:AAAEQ03T123XYZ would indicate a REN of 0.3.
The REN is used to determine how many
devices you may connect to your telephone line
and still have them ring when you are called. In
most, but not all areas, the sum of all RENs
should be five (5.0) or less. For more information, please contact your local telephone company.
36
Appendix
FCC, ACTA and IC regulations
2. Connection and use with the nationwide
telephone network
The plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and the telephone
network must comply with the applicable Part
68 rules and technical requirements adopted by
ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and modular
plug is provided with this product. It is designed
to be connected to a compatible modular jack
that is also compliant. An RJ11 jack should normally be used for connecting to a single line and
an RJ14 jack for two lines. See Installation
Instructions in this user’s manual. This equipment may not be used with Coin Telephone
Lines or with Party Lines. [Connection to Party
Line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact
the state public utility commission, public service commission or corporation commission for
information.] If you have specially wired alarm
dialing equipment connected to your telephone
line, ensure the connection of this equipment
does not disable your alarm equipment. If you
have questions about what will disable alarm
equipment, consult your telephone company or
a qualified installer.
3. Repair instructions
If this equipment is malfunctioning, it must 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. For
repair procedures, follow the instructions outlined under the Limited Warranty.
4. Rights of the telephone company
If this equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may
temporarily discontinue your telephone service.
The telephone company is required to notify you
before interrupting service. If advance notice is
not practical, you will be notified as soon as
possible. You will be given the opportunity to
correct the problem and the telephone company
is required to inform you of your right to file a
complaint with the FCC. Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operation, or procedures that could affect
the proper functioning of this product. The telephone company is required to notify you if such
changes are planned.
5. Hearing aid compatibility
If this product is equipped with a corded or cordless handset, it is hearing aid compatible.
6. Programming/testing of emergency numbers
If this product has memory dialing locations, you
may choose to store police, fire department and
emergency medical service telephone numbers
in these locations. If you do, please keep three
things in mind:
a. We recommend that you also write the telephone number on the directory card, so that you
can still dial the emergency number manually if
the memory dialing feature doesn’t work.
b. This feature is provided only as a convenience, and the manufacturer assumes no
responsibility for customer reliance upon the
memory feature.
c. Testing the emergency telephone numbers
you have stored is not recommended. However,
if you do make a call to an emergency number:
• You must remain on the line and briefly
explain the reason for the call before hanging
up.
• Programming/testing of emergency numbers
should be performed during off-peak hours,
such as in the early morning or late evening,
when the emergency services tend to be less
busy.
7. Electrical safety advisory
It is advisable to install a safety approved AC
surge arrester in the AC outlet to which this
device is connected. This is to avoid equipment
damage by local lightning strikes or other electrical surges.
37
Appendix
FCC, ACTA and IC regulations
IC (Industry Canada)
This telephone is registered for use in Canada.
The term “IC:” before the radio certification
number only signifies that Industry Canada
technical specifications were met.
Notice: This equipment meets the applicable
Industry Canada Terminal Equipment Technical
Specifications. This is confirmed by the registration number. The abbreviation, IC, before the
registration number signifies that registration
was performed based on a Declaration of
Conformity indicating that Industry Canada
technical specifications were met. It does not
imply that Industry Canada approved the equipment.
Notice: The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN)
for this terminal equipment is 0.7. The REN
assigned to each terminal equipment provides
an indication of the maximum number of terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone
interface. The termination on an interface may
consist of any combination of devices subject
only to the requirement that the sum of the
Ringer Equivalence Numbers of all the devices
does not exceed five.
Before installing this equipment, users should
ensure that it is permissible to be connected to
the facilities of the local telecommunications
company. The equipment must also be installed
using an acceptable method of connection. The
customer should be aware that compliance with
the above conditions may not prevent degradation of services in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made
by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility
designated by the Supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or
equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user
to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection
that the electrical ground connections of the
power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected
together. This precaution may be particularly
important in rural areas.
Caution:
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or electrician as appropriate.
Your Cordless Phone is designed to operate at
the maximum power allowed by the FCC and
IC. This means your Handset and Base Unit
can communicate only over a certain distance
— which will depend on the location of the base
unit and handset, weather, and the construction
and layout of your home or office.
