INTRODUCTION  
Cordless phones require  
AC power to operate. When  
the power is off, you cannot  
make or receive calls using  
your phone. To be safe, you  
should also have a phone  
that does not need AC  
power to operate (not a  
cordless phone), so you  
can still make and receive  
calls if there is an AC power  
failure.  
Thank you for purchasing a RadioShack 2.4 GHz  
Multi Handset Expandable Cordless Telephone.  
Unlike other conventional cordless telephones, your  
telephone supports up to eight handsets on a single  
telephone line. You can add a handset to any room  
in your home or office that has an AC outlet. No  
more running to the other end of the house to  
answer the phone! You can transfer outside calls to  
other handsets. If you subscribe to Call Waiting with  
Caller ID, the Caller ID (CID) lets you see who’s  
calling before you answer the phone, even when  
you are already talking on the phone.  
!
Before using your phone, be sure to carefully peel  
the protective film off the handset’s display window.

FCC STATEMENT  
Your telephone complies with Part 68 of FCC  
Rules. You must, upon request, provide the FCC  
registration number and the REN to your telephone

standard radio frequencies  
as allocated by the FCC. It

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO  
KNOW  
This equipment has been tested and found to  
comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,  
pursuant to 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 to 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 on a  
circuit different from that to which the receiver  
is connected.

• Consult your local RadioShack store or an  
experienced radio/TV technician for help.  
• If you cannot eliminate the interference, the  
FCC requires that you stop using your  
telephone.  
Changes or modifications not expressly approved  
by RadioShack may cause interference and void  
the user’s authority to operate the equipment.  
SURGE PROTECTION  
Your telephone has built-in protection circuits to  
reduce the risk of damage from surges in telephone  
line and power line current. These protection  
circuits meet or exceed the FCC requirements.  
However, lightning striking the telephone or power  
lines can damage your telephone.  
Lightning damage is not common. Nevertheless, if  
you live in an area that has severe electrical storms,  
we suggest that you unplug your phone when  
storms approach to reduce the possibility of  
damage.

IMPORTANT  
Limited One-Year Warranty  
INFORMATION  
This product is warranted by RadioShack against  
manufacturing defects in material and workmanship  
under normal use for one (1) year from the date of pur-  
chase from RadioShack company-owned stores and  
authorized RadioShack franchisees and dealers. EX-  
CEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN, RadioShack MAKES  
NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES AND ANY IMPLIED  
WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THOSE OF MER-  
CHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR  
PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE  
DURATION OF THE WRITTEN LIMITED WARRAN-  
TIES CONTAINED HEREIN. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED  
HEREIN, RadioShack SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY  
OR RESPONSIBILITY TO CUSTOMER OR ANY  
OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY WITH RESPECT TO  
ANY LIABILITY, LOSS OR DAMAGE CAUSED DI-  
RECTLY OR INDIRECTLY BY USE OR PERFOR-  
MANCE OF THE PRODUCT OR ARISING OUT OF  
ANY BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY, INCLUDING,  
BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY DAMAGES RESULTING  
FROM INCONVENIENCE, LOSS OF TIME, DATA,  
PROPERTY, REVENUE, OR PROFIT OR ANY INDI-  
RECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUEN-  
TIAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF RadioShack HAS BEEN  
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAM-  
AGES.  
Your telephone is UL listed and meets all applicable  
FCC requirements.  
We have designed your phone to conform to federal  
regulations, and you can connect it to most  
telephone lines. However, each device, such as a  
telephone or answering machine, that you connect  
to the telephone line draws power from the  
telephone line. We refer to this power draw as the  
device's ringer equivalence number, or REN. The  
REN is on the bottom of your phone.  
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an  
implied warranty lasts or the exclusion or limitation of  
incidental or consequential damages, so the above  
limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.  
If you use more than one phone or other device on  
the line, add up all of the RENs. If the total is more  
than five (three in rural areas), your telephones  
might not ring. If ringer operation is impaired,  
remove a device from the line.  
In the event of a product defect during the  
warranty period, take the product and the  
RadioShack sales receipt as proof of pur-  
chase date to any RadioShack store. Ra-  
dioShack will, at its option, unless  
otherwise provided by law: (a) correct the  
defect by product repair without charge for  
parts and labor; (b) replace the product  
with one of the same or similar design; or  
(c) refund the purchase price. All replaced  
parts and products, and products on which  
a refund is made, become the property of  
RadioShack. New or reconditioned parts  
and products may be used in the perfor-  
mance of warranty service. Repaired or re-  
placed parts and products are warranted  
for the remainder of the original warranty  
period. You will be charged for repair or re-  
placement of the product made after the  
expiration of the warranty period.  
This warranty does not cover: (a) damage  
or failure caused by or attributable to acts of  
God, abuse, accident, misuse, improper or  
abnormal usage, failure to follow instruc-  
tions, improper installation or mainte-  
nance, alteration, lightning or other  
incidence of excess voltage or current; (b)  
any repairs other than those provided by a  
RadioShack Authorized Service Facility; (c)  
consumables such as fuses or batteries;  
(d) cosmetic damage; (e) transportation,  
shipping or insurance costs; or (f) costs of  
product removal, installation, set-up service  
adjustment or reinstallation.  
This warranty gives you specific legal  
rights, and you may also have other rights  
which vary from state to state.
