INTRODUCTION

Your Caller ID phone stores and displays specific

information, provided by your local telephone company, to

subscribers of Caller ID or similar caller identification

services. You must subscribe to one of these services in

order to use this unit.

Your Caller ID phone enables you to:

• Identify callers before you answer the phone.

• View the time and date of each incoming call.

• Record up to 40 Caller ID messages sequentially.

• Know who called while you were away.

To get the most from your new phone, we suggest that you

take a few minutes right now to read through this user's guide.

IMPORTANT: In order to use this unit, you must

subscribe to either the standard Name/Number Caller

ID Service or Caller ID with Call Waiting Service. To

know who is calling while you are on the phone, you

must subscribe to Caller ID with Call Waiting Service.

IMPORTANT: Because cordless phones operate on

electricity, you should have at least one phone in your

home that isn’t cordless, in case the power in your

home goes out.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

PARTS CHECKLIST

Make sure your package includes the items shown here.

INSTALLATION

DESKTOP INSTALLATION

NOTE: For desktop charging only, the handset is able

to charge facing up or down.

1. Place the handset in the base.

2. Raise the base antenna.

3. Plug the power supply cord into an AC outlet. The

CHARGE/IN USE indicator comes on indicating that the

battery is charging.

Allow the phone to charge for 12 hours prior to

first use. If you don't properly charge the phone,

battery performance will be compromised.

4. After charging, plug the telephone line cord into the

modular jack.

5. Set the RINGER switch on the handset to ON.

NOTE : The phone automatically defaults to touch-

tone dialing. To change to pulse (rotary) dialing, see

“Tone/Pulse Dialing.” If you don’t know which type of

service you have, check with the phone company.

WALL MOUNT INSTALLATION

Because it is necessary to charge the handset for 12 hours

prior to connecting the phone for use the first time, it is

better to leave the unit on a flat surface during initial

charge before attempting to hang it on the wall.

1. Remove the handset hook; turn it upside down, and put

it back in the slot. You need to do this so the handset

doesn't fall out of the base when it is on the wall.

2. Set the RINGER switch on the handset to ON.

3. Place the handset in the base.

4. Plug the power supply into an AC outlet.

The CHARGE/IN USE indicator comes on indicating that

the battery is charging.

Allow the phone to charge for 12 hours prior to first

use. If you don't properly charge the phone, battery

performance will be compromised.

5. After charging, plug the telephone line cord into the

modular jack. Then stuff the excess line cord into the

mounting bracket.

6. Attach the wall

mount bracket by

inserting the two

tabs at the top

and then

snapping the tab

at the bottom into

place.

7. Slip the mounting

holes over the

wall plate posts

and slide the unit

down firmly into

place. (Wall plate

not included.)

8. Raise the base antenna.

NOTE : The phone automatically defaults to touch-

tone dialing. To change to pulse (rotary) dialing, see

“Tone/Pulse Dialing.” If you don’t know which type of

service you have, check with the phone company.

FCC REGISTRATION INFORMATION

Your telephone equipment is registered with the Federal

Communications Commission and is in compliance with parts 15 and

68, FCC Rules and Regulations.

1 Notification to the Local Telephone Company

On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other

information, the FCC Registration number and Ringer Equivalence

Number (REN) for the equipment. You must, upon request, provide

this information to your telephone company.

The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may

connect to your telephone line and still have all of these devices

ring when your telephone number is called. In most (but not all)

areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line

should not exceed 5. To be certain of the number of devices you may

connect to your line as determined by the REN, you should contact

your local telephone company.

Notes

• This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the

telephone company.

• Party lines are subject to state tariffs, and therefore, you may not

be able to use your own telephone equipment if you are on a

party line. Check with your local telephone company.

• Notice must be given to the telephone company upon

permanent disconnection of your telephone from your line.

2 Rights of the Telephone Company

Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may

harm the telephone network, the telephone company shall, where

practicable, notify you that temporary discontinuance of service

may be required. Where prior notice is not practicable and the

circumstances warrant such action, the telephone company may

temporarily discontinue service immediately. In case of such

temporary discontinuance, the telephone company must: (1)

promptly notify you of such temporary discontinuance; (2) afford

you the opportunity to correct the situation; and (3) inform you of

your right to bring a complaint to the Commission pursuant to

procedures set forth in Subpart E of Part 68, FCC Rules and

Regulations.

The telephone company may make changes in its communications

facilities, equipment, operations or procedures where such action

is required in the operation of its business and not inconsistent

with FCC Rules and Regulations. If these changes are expected to

affect the use or performance of your telephone equipment, the

telephone company must give you adequate notice, in writing, to

allow you to maintain uninterrupted service.

MODULAR JACK REQUIREMENTS

You need an RJ11 type modular phone jack,

which is the most common type of phone jack

and might look like the one pictured here. If you

don’t have a modular jack, call your local phone

company to find out how to get one installed.

INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless

telephones operate at frequencies that may cause

interference to nearby TVs, microwave ovens, and

VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the

base of the cordless telephone should not be placed

near or on top of a TV, microwave oven, or VCR. If

such interference continues, move the cordless

telephone farther away from these appliances.

DIGITAL SECURITY SYSTEM

Your cordless phone uses a digital security system to

provide protection against false ringing, unauthorized

access, and charges to your phone line.

When you place the handset in the base, the unit verifies

its security code. After a power outage or battery replace-

ment, you should place the handset in the base for about

20 seconds to reset the code.
