Congratulations! You have purchased one of the most sophisticated cordless telephones on the market! The VTech VT 191 0c has been designed to offer a new standard in cordless telephone technology.
Unlike most other cordless phones, the VTech
VT 1910c digitizes your voice using advanced ADPCM digital voice coding to provide noise and distortion free performance. In most conditions you will not be able to tell you are using a cordless phone. Gone are the annoyances of static, interference and having to listen to other people's conversations on your cordless phone.
The VTech
VT 191 0c scrambles your voice before it transmits it. This allows you the security of knowing that no one can tune in and eavesdrop on your conversations.
The VTech VT
1910c decodes and displays name and number Caller ID (CID) information where available and when subscribed to. The alpha-
numeric display will show both the name and number of the calling party. Up to 24 name characters or 11 phone number digits can be displayed on the LCD.
With the VTech
VT
191 0c the user can easily answer a call on the handset by simply pressing any key other than the OFF, MUTE or Volume Keys. This is very useful in a dark environment, so that the user does not have to fumble around looking for the PHONE key to answer the call.
The VTech VT 191 0c also provides a one-way
Pagelfind. Pressing the base PAGE key will cause the handset to ring in a mannerwhich distinguishes it from normal incoming ringing. This can be used to alert the handset user or to simply locate the handset in the event that it is misplaced.
The VTech VT
1910c uses special
memory in both the base and handset which is not susceptible to power failures. This provides permanent storage of all speed dial numbers, CID
information as well as the base and
handset security codes. When a spare battery is installed in the
base unit, the VTech VT 1910c uses this battery to provide operational backup in case of power failure. In this way you have access to all normal phone functions during a total power outage. Calls can still be placed and
received without interruption. More than 5 hours backup will be possible with a fully charged battery in the base
unit.
SPECIAL

FCC
Part
68
The FCC requires that you connect your cordless telephone to the nationwide telephone network through a modular telephone jack (USOC RJllC, RJIIW or RJ14).
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.
Occasionally, yourtelephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operation, or procedures that could affect the operation of your equipment. If so, you will be given advance notice of the change to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.
The base unit contains no user
serviceable parts. The handset contains a user replaceable battery pack.
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.
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the phone company or Party Lines.
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.OA
total; however, contact your local telephone company for the specific number in your area.
IC (Industry Canada) This telephone is registered for use in Canada.
Notice:The LOAD NUMBER (LN)
assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the total load to be connected to a telephone loop which is used by the device, to prevent overloading. The termination of a loop may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the load numbers of all devices not exceed 100.
Notice:The Industry Canada label
identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational and safety requirements. The Department does not
guarantee the equipment will operate to the user's satisfaction.
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 userto 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 VTech VT 1910c 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.
If you move the handset out of range during a phone conversation, you will hear an 'Out of Range' tone to tell you to move closer to the base. If you do not move within range within
25
seconds the 'call is automatically disconnected.
If you move out of range when the handset is in standby mode, it will give
an 'Out of Range' tone to tell you that the handset will not be able to receive or place calls.
