ference. This lack of privacy can occur  
with any cordless phone.  
Important Caller ID Information  
To use the phone’s Caller ID and Call  
Waiting features, you must be in an area  
where Caller ID and Call Waiting servic-  
es are available and you must subscribe  
to the services.  
READ THIS BEFORE  
INSTALLATION  
Each device that you connect to the  
phone line draws power from the phone  
line. We refer to this power draw as the  
device’s ringer equivalence number, or  
REN. The REN is on the bottom of the  
base.  
Where Caller ID is offered, one or more  
of the following options are generally  
available:  
• Caller’s number only  
• Caller’s name only  
• Caller’s name and number  
If you are using more than one phone or  
other device on the line, add up all the  
RENs. If the total is more than five (three  
in rural areas), your phone might not  
ring. If ringer operation is impaired, re-  
move a device from the line.  
For the ET-1105’s Caller ID memory dial  
feature to operate, you must receive the  
caller’s number.  
Important: Cordless phones such as  
this one require AC power to operate.  
When the AC power is off, you cannot  
dial out or receive incoming calls using  
your ET-1105. For this reason, the ET-  
1105 cordless phone should not be your  
only telephone. To be safe, you should  
also have a corded phone that does not  
require AC power to operate so you can  
still make and receive calls if there is an  
AC power failure.  
FCC STATEMENT  
This telephone complies with Part 68 of  
FCC Rules. You must, upon request,  
provide the FCC registration number and  
the REN to your phone company. These  
numbers are on the bottom of the base.  
Note: You must not connect your ET-  
1105 to any of the following:  
Your telephone operates on standard ra-  
dio frequencies as allocated by the FCC.  
Even though the access protection code  
prevents unauthorized use of your phone  
line, it is possible for other radio units op-  
erating on similar frequencies within a  
certain area to unintentionally intercept  
your conversations and/or cause inter-  
• coin-operated systems  
• party-line systems  
• most electronic key phone systems

You can place the handset on the  
base face down or face up without  
removing the belt clip. If you want to  
use the hanging hole on the back of  
the handset to place the handset on  
the wall-mounted base face-up, re-  
move the belt clip (see “Removing  
the Belt Clip” on Page 13). However,  
the battery pack will not fully charge  
in this position.  
• If the battery pack gets weak during  
a call, the handset beeps once ev-  
ery 16 seconds. If this happens, you  
cannot make another call on the  
phone until you recharge the battery

• If the CHARGE indicator does not  
light when you place the handset on  
the base, be sure the battery pack  
and AC adapter are correctly and  
securely connected.  
• If you are not going to use your  
phone for an extended period of  
time, disconnect the battery pack.  
This increases the battery pack’s us-  
able life.  
Also, check the charging contacts  
on the handset and the base. If the  
contacts are dirty or tarnished,  
clean them with a pencil eraser.  
• The supplied battery pack should  
last for about a year. When it loses  
its ability to fully recharge, order a  
replacement battery pack from your  
local RadioShack store (see “Re-  
placing the Battery Pack” on  
Page 26).

SETTING THE AREA  
CODE  
SETTING THE RINGER  
Turning the Ringer On or Off  
When you return a call from a Caller ID  
record (see “Dialing Numbers from a  
Caller ID Record” on Page 21), your  
phone automatically dials 1, the area  
code, and the number. The ET-1105 lets  
you store one local area code and three  
neighborhood area codes. If the number  
you call has the same area code with  
your local area code, the ET-1105 dials  
the 7-digit local number. If the number  
you call has the same area code with one  
of three neighborhood area codes, the  
ET-1105 dials the 10-digit local number.  
You can turn the ET-1105’s ringer on  
and off. Set RINGER on the side of the  
handset to ON to hear an incoming call or  
a page from the base. Set RINGER to  
OFF to silence the ringer.  
Note: With the ringer off, you can still  
make or receive calls using this cordless  
phone. Telephones on the same line still  
ring when there is an incoming call, and  
the IN USE indicator on the ET-1105’s  
base flashes until you answer the call.  
Follow these steps to set area codes.  
Note: If you make a mistake or do not  
press a key within 10 seconds during  
these steps, start again at Step 1.  
1. Pres SETUP. The language selection  
display appears.

seats properly.  
USING A HEADSET  
You can make or answer calls with  
hands-free convenience using an option-

al headset that has a /32-inch (2.5 mm)  
plug. We recommend RadioShack Cat.  
No. 43-195, which is specially designed  
for use with the ET-1105.  
REMOVING THE BELT  
CLIP  
Follow these steps to use a headset.  
The belt clip on the back of the handset  
lets you hang the handset on your belt for  
easy portability. But to use the hanging  
hole on the back of the handset to place  
the handset on the wall-mounted base  
face-up, you must remove the belt clip.  
1. Insert the headset’s plug into the  
jack on the top of the handset.  
Insert a flat-blade screwdriver into either  
side of the belt clip, then pull it off.  
2. Place the headset on your head with  
the earpiece over either ear and ad-  
just the microphone boom until it is  
about even with your chin.  
3. Hang the belt clip on your belt.  
4. Make or receive calls as you would  
normally (see “Making and Receiv-  
ing a Call” on Page 14).  
To replace the belt clip, insert either tab  
of the belt clip into one of the handset’s  
slots, then snap the other tab into hand-  
set’s other slot.  
Notes:  
• Connecting a headset disconnects  
the handset’s earpiece and micro-  
phone.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
Your RadioShack ET-1105 Digital Spread Spectrum 900 MHz Cordless Telephone  
is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will  
help you care for your phone so you can enjoy it for years.  
Keep the phone dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids  
might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.  
Use and store the phone only in normal temperature environments.  
Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices, dam-  
age batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.  
Keep the phone away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature  
wear of parts.  
Handle the phone gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage circuit  
boards and cases and can cause the phone to work improperly.  
Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.  
Batteries can leak chemicals that damage your phone’s electronic  
parts.  
Wipe the phone with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.  
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to  
clean the phone.  
Modifying or tampering with the phone’s internal components can cause a malfunc-  
tion and might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it.  
If your phone is not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store  
for assistance. If the trouble is affecting the telephone lines, the phone company  
can ask you to disconnect your phone until you have resolved the problem.

Cautions:  
REPLACING THE  
BATTERY PACK  
You must use a replacement battery  
pack of the same size and type, with  
the proper connector.  
If you follow the instructions in “Connect-  
ing and Charging the Battery Pack” on  
Page 9, the battery pack should last  
about one year. If the battery does not  
hold a charge for more than 2 hours after  
an overnight charge, replace the battery  
with a new 3.6 volt, 600 milliamp battery  
with a connector that fits the socket in the  
battery compartment. You can order a  
replacement battery pack through your  
local RadioShack store.  
• Do not dispose of the battery pack  
in a fire because it might explode.  
• Do not open or mutilate the battery  
pack.  
• Be careful not to short the battery  
pack by touching it with conducting  
materials, such as rings, bracelets,  
and keys. The battery pack or con-  
ductor might overheat and burn.  
Install the new battery pack as described  
below, then charge the battery pack for  
about 15 hours (see “Connecting and  
Charging the Battery Pack” on Page 9).  
If you have trouble replacing the battery  
pack, take the phone to your local Ra-  
dioShack store for assistance.  
Note: To avoid losing information stored  
in memory, try to install and begin charg-  
ing the new battery pack within 2–3 min-  
utes.  
Important: This phone  
can use nickel-cadmium  
rechargeable batteries.  
At the end of a nickel-  
cadmium battery's useful  
life, it must be recycled or

disposed of properly. Contact your local,  
county, or state hazardous waste man-  
agement authorities for information on  
recycling or disposal programs in your  
area or call 1-800-843-7422. Some op-  
tions that might be available are: munici-  
pal curbside collection, drop-off boxes at  
retailers such as your local RadioShack  
store, recycling collection centers, and  
mail-back programs.  
2. Gently pull on the battery pack con-  
nector to disconnect it, then remove  
the battery pack.

tor into the socket and place the bat-  
tery pack into the compartment.

If you cannot eliminate the interference,  
the FCC requires that you stop using  
your phone.  
THE FCC WANTS YOU TO  
KNOW  
In the unlikely event that your phone  
causes problems on the phone line, the  
phone company can temporarily discon-  
tinue your service. If this happens, the  
phone company attempts to notify you in  
advance. If advance notice is not practi-  
cal, the phone company notifies you as  
soon as possible and advises you of your  
right to file a complaint with the FCC.  
Some cordless telephones operate on  
frequencies that may cause interference  
to nearby TVs 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 or VCR.  
LIGHTNING  
Also, the phone company can make  
changes to its lines, equipment, opera-  
tions, or procedures that could affect the  
operation of this telephone. The tele-  
phone company notifies you of these  
changes in advance, so you can take the  
necessary steps to prevent interruption  
of your telephone service.  
Your telephone has built-in lightning pro-  
tection to reduce the risk of damage from  
surges in telephone line and power line  
current. This lightning protection meets  
or exceeds FCC requirements. However,  
lightning striking the telephone or power  
lines can damage your telephone.  
Lightning damage is not common. Nev-  
ertheless, if you live an area that has se-  
vere electrical storms, we suggest that  
you unplug your phone during storms to  
reduce the possibility of damage.  
Your phone might cause TV or radio in-  
terference even when it is operating  
properly. To determine whether your  
phone is causing the interference, turn  
off your phone. If the interference goes  
away, your phone is causing the interfer-  
ence. Try to eliminate the interference  
by:  
• Moving your phone away from the  
receiver  
• Connecting your phone to an AC  
outlet that is on a different electrical  
circuit from the receiver  
• Contacting your local RadioShack  
store for help
