Before you begin
Internet calling
To make and receive Internet calls,
you must install software provided
on the enclosed CD-ROM (see page
9).
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.
If you receive a call while you are
out of range, the handset might not
ring — or if it does ring, the call
might not connect when you press
CALL. Move closer to the base, then
press CALL to answer the call.
If you move out of range during a
phone conversation, you might hear
noise or interference. To improve
reception, move closer to the base.
If you move out of range without
pressing OFF, your phone will be left
“off the hook.” To hang up properly,
walk back toward the telephone
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.
Battery installation & charging
After installation, place the handset in the base and allow to charge for 15 hours
before use. Note: The screen will be blank until the batteries are charged enough to
activate it. You can keep batteries charged by placing the handset in the base after
each use. When batteries are fully depleted, a full recharge takes 15 hours.
