Congratulations! You have purchased one of the most sophisticated cordless telephones on the market! The VTech VT 191 1 has been designed to offer a new standard in cordless telephone technology.
Unlike most other cordless phones, the VTech VT 191 1 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 1 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 191
1 decodes and displays name and number Caller ID (CID) information where available and when subscribed to. The alpha­numeric 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 1, the user can easily answer a call by pressing and key other than the OFF, MUTE or VOLUME Keys. In addition, the handset keypad and LCD illuminate while the handset rings to signal an incoming call. This is very useful in a dark environment.
The VTech VT 191
1
also provides a
SPECIAL
one-way PageIFind. pressing the base PAGE key will cause the handset to ring in a manner which 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 1911 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
191 1 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.
The VTech VT 191
1 also informs you that another extension is currently off­hook on the same phone line. The phone will also alert you when you are Out of Range even when you're not using the phone!

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 radiorTV technician for help.
FCC
Part
68
The FCC requires that you connect
your cordless telephone to the nation-
wide telephone network through a
modular telephone jack (USOC
RJ11 C,
RJl lW 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, your telephone 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.
