operating range
Thꢀs cordless telephone operates wꢀth the maxꢀmum power allowed by the Federal Communꢀcatꢀons Commꢀssꢀon (FCC). Even so, thꢀs handset and telephone base can
communicate over only a certain distance ----which can vary with the locations of the telephone base and handset, the weather, and the layout of your home or office.
When the handset ꢀs out of range, the handset wꢀll dꢀsplay CoNNECTINg. The user can access the handset dꢀrectory, and certaꢀn parts of the menu system, ꢀ.e.
handset settꢀng, but not the tꢀme settꢀng and telephone base settꢀng. NoT avaILaBLE wꢀll be dꢀsplayed ꢀf access ꢀs denꢀed.
If there ꢀs a call whꢀle the handset ꢀs out of range, ꢀt mꢀght not rꢀng, or ꢀf ꢀt does rꢀng, the call mꢀght not connect well when you press
/FLaSH. Move closer to the
telephone base, then press /FLaSH to answer the call.
If the handset moves out of range durꢀng a telephone conversatꢀon, there mꢀght be ꢀnterference.

Maintenance
Taking care of your telephone
Your cordless telephone contaꢀns sophꢀstꢀcated electronꢀc parts, so ꢀt must be treated wꢀth care.
avoid rough treatment
Place the handset down gently. Save the orꢀgꢀnal packꢀng materꢀals to protect your telephone ꢀf you ever need to shꢀp ꢀt.
avoid water
Your telephone can be damaged ꢀf ꢀt gets wet. Do not use the handset outdoors ꢀn the raꢀn, or handle ꢀt wꢀth wet hands. Do not ꢀnstall the telephone base near a
sꢀnk, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
Electrꢀcal storms can sometꢀmes cause power surges harmful to electronꢀc equꢀpment. For your own safety, take cautꢀon when usꢀng electrꢀc applꢀances durꢀng storms.
Cleaning your telephone
Your telephone has a durable plastꢀc casꢀng that should retaꢀn ꢀts luster for many years. Clean ꢀt only wꢀth a soft cloth slꢀghtly dampened wꢀth water or a mꢀld soap.
Do not use excess water or cleanꢀng solvents of any kꢀnd.
Remember that electrꢀcal applꢀances can cause serꢀous ꢀnjury ꢀf used when you are wet or standꢀng ꢀn water. If the telephone base should fall ꢀnto water, DO NOT
RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND TELEPHONE LINE CORDS FROM THE WALL. Then pull the unꢀt out by the unplugged cords.

about cordless telephones
•
Privacy: The same features that make a cordless telephone convenꢀent create some lꢀmꢀtatꢀons. Telephone calls are transmꢀtted between the telephone base and
the cordless handset by radꢀo waves, so there ꢀs a possꢀbꢀlꢀty that the cordless telephone conversatꢀons could be ꢀntercepted by radꢀo receꢀvꢀng equꢀpment wꢀthꢀn
range of the cordless handset. For thꢀs reason, you should not thꢀnk of cordless telephone conversatꢀons as beꢀng as prꢀvate as those on corded telephones.
•
•
Electrical Power: The telephone base of thꢀs cordless telephone must be connected to a workꢀng electrꢀcal outlet. The electrꢀcal outlet should not be controlled
by a wall swꢀtch. Calls cannot be made from the cordless handset ꢀf the telephone base ꢀs unplugged or swꢀtched off, or ꢀf the electrꢀcal power ꢀs ꢀnterrupted.
Potential Tv Interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencꢀes that may cause ꢀnterference to televꢀsꢀons and VCRs. To mꢀnꢀmꢀze or prevent
such ꢀnterference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless telephone near or on top of a TV or VCR. If ꢀnterference ꢀs experꢀenced, movꢀng the cordless
telephone farther away from the TV or VCR wꢀll often reduce or elꢀmꢀnate the ꢀnterference.

and can radꢀate radꢀo frequency energy and, ꢀf not ꢀnstalled and used ꢀn accordance wꢀth the ꢀnstructꢀons, may cause harmful ꢀnterference to radꢀo communꢀcatꢀons.
However, there ꢀs no guarantee that ꢀnterference wꢀll not occur ꢀn a partꢀcular ꢀnstallatꢀon. If thꢀs equꢀpment does cause harmful ꢀnterference to radꢀo or televꢀsꢀon recep-
tꢀon, whꢀch can be determꢀned by turnꢀng the equꢀpment off and on, the user ꢀs encouraged to try to correct the ꢀnterference by one or more of the followꢀng measures:
•
•
•
•
Reorꢀent or relocate the receꢀvꢀng antenna.
Increase the separatꢀon between the equꢀpment and receꢀver.
Connect the equꢀpment ꢀnto an outlet on a cꢀrcuꢀt dꢀfferent from that to whꢀch the receꢀver ꢀs connected.
Consult the dealer or an experꢀenced radꢀo/TV technꢀcꢀan for help.
Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
To ensure safety of users, the FCC has establꢀshed crꢀterꢀa for the amount of radꢀo frequency energy that can be safely absorbed by user or by-
a
stander accordꢀng to the ꢀntended usage of the product. Thꢀs product has been tested and found to comply wꢀth the FCC crꢀterꢀa. The handset may be safely
held agaꢀnst the ear of the user. The telephone base shall be ꢀnstalled and used such that parts of the user’s body other than the hands are maꢀntaꢀned at a

adopted by ACTA. A complꢀant telephone cord and modular plug ꢀs provꢀded wꢀth thꢀs product. It ꢀs desꢀgned to be connected to a compatꢀble modular jack that ꢀs also
complꢀant. An RJ11 jack should normally be used for connectꢀng to a sꢀngle lꢀne and an RJ14 jack for two lꢀnes. See Installatꢀon Instructꢀons ꢀn the user’s manual.
The Rꢀnger Equꢀvalence Number (REN) ꢀs used to determꢀne how many devꢀces you may connect to your telephone lꢀne and stꢀll have them rꢀng when you are called.
The REN for this product is encoded as the 6th and 7th characters following the US: in the product identifier (e.g., if ## is 03, the REN is 0.3). 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.
Thꢀs equꢀpment may not be used wꢀth Party Lꢀnes. If you have specꢀally wꢀred alarm dꢀalꢀng equꢀpment connected to your telephone lꢀne, ensure the connectꢀon of thꢀs equꢀp-
