ˆ Features
Your RadioShack 900 MHz Digital Cordless Telephone with
Caller ID and Call Waiting offers the latest advances in cordless
phone technology. It combines a cordless phone and a Caller
ID unit in one system. It saves up to 50 Caller ID records that
you can review and call back. Its headset jack means you can
connect an optional headset for hands-free convenience while
you use the phone. The base’s space-saving, upright design
makes it perfect for areas where space is limited.
Your cordless phone includes these additional features:
2-Line Dot Matrix Display
— lets you view a caller’s name and
number on one screen.
Caller ID Memory
— Stores up to 50 Caller ID records with
name and number or name only, depending on the information
your phone company provides.
Call Waiting ID
— displays Caller ID information about an in-
coming call when you are on the phone (if you subscribe to this
service from your local phone company).
New Call Indicator
— lets you see at a glance that you have
new calls.
Review Scrolling

IMPORTANT CALLER ID INFORMATION
To use the System’s Caller ID features, you must be in an area
where Caller ID service is available and you must subscribe to
that service.
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
For the cordless phone’s Caller ID memory dial feature to oper-
ate, 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 re-
ceive incoming calls using your cordless phone. For this rea-
son, the cordless phone should not be your only telephone. To
be safe, you should also have a phone that does not require AC
power to operate (not a cordless phone) so you can still make
and receive calls if there is an AC power failure.
Your cordless phone operates on standard radio frequencies,
as allocated by the FCC. Therefore, it is possible for other radio
units operating on similar frequencies, within certain areas, to
inadvertently intercept your conversations and/or cause interfer-
ence on your cordless telephone. This lack of privacy can occur
with any cordless telephone.

READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLATION
We have designed your telephone to conform to federal regula-
tions, and you can connect it to most telephone lines. However,
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 your phone’s base.
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 im-
paired, remove a device from the line.
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 bot-
tom of your phone’s base.
Note:
You must not connect your phone to any of the following:
• coin-operated systems
• party-line systems
• most electronic key phone systems

ˆ Installation
SELECTING A LOCATION
Select a location for the telephone that is:
• near an AC outlet
• near a telephone line jack
• out of the way of normal activities
• away from electrical machinery, electrical appliances, and
metal walls or filing cabinets
• away from wireless intercoms, alarms, and room monitors
The base’s location affects the phone’s range. If you have a
choice of several locations, try each to see which provides the
best performance.
Note:
Your telephone connects directly to a modular telephone
line jack. If your phone line jack is not a modular jack, you can
update the wiring yourself, using jacks and adapters available
at your local RadioShack store. Or, you can let the phone com-
pany update the wiring for you. The USOC number of the jack
to be installed is RJ11C.

CONNECTING AND CHARGING THE
BATTERY PACK
Your phone comes with a rechargeable nickel-metal-hydride
battery pack. You must connect the battery pack and charge it
for at least 16 hours before you use the phone.

You must install the battery pack inside the handset
before charging the phone and using it.
To connect the battery pack, slide the battery compartment cov-
er in the direction of the arrow to remove it. Install the recharge-
able battery pack in the compartment as indicated by the
polarity symbols (+ and –) marked inside. Then replace the cov-
er.

• The CHARGING/IN USE indicator still lights even when a
battery pack is not installed in the battery compartment.
Make sure the battery is installed before using the phone.
• To avoid damage to the battery pack, always recharge the
handset before battery power grows too weak for LOW
BATTERYto appear on the display.
• If you are not going to use your phone for an extended
period of time, disconnect its battery. This helps to increase
the battery’s usable life.
INSTALLING THE BACKUP BATTERY PACK
Your phone requires a 3.6V rechargeable nickel-metal-hydride
battery pack (not supplied) for backup power when AC power is
off. In case of a power failure, you can make and receive calls
for up to four hours with a fully charged spare battery pack. You
can also use the spare battery pack to replace a drained battery
pack in the handset.
Push down the tab of the battery
compartment cover in the base and
open the cover. Then place the
battery pack in the compartment as
indicated by the polarity symbols (+
and –) marked inside. Replace the
cover.

CALLER ID OPERATION
If you subscribe to Caller ID service from your phone company,
the system automatically displays information about calls you
receive and stores the information in Caller ID memory. The
system can store up to 50 number records (the most recent is
01), then replaces the oldest call with each new one.
The first line of the Caller ID record shows the caller’s name.
The second line shows the phone number of the caller and oth-
er information about the call (see “Caller ID Messages” on
Page 29).
Note:
If you are programming the system when a call is re-
ceived, the phone automatically exits programming and shows
Caller ID information.

ˆ Care
To enjoy your phone for a long time:
• Keep the phone dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.
• Use and store the phone only in normal temperature envi-
ronments.
• Handle the phone gently and carefully. Don’t drop it.
• Keep the phone away from dust and dirt.
• Wipe the phone with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it
looking new.
Modifying or tampering with the phone’s internal components
can cause a malfunction and invalidate its warranty. If your
phone is not performing as it should, take it to your local Ra-
dioShack store for assistance. If the trouble is affecting the tele-
phone lines, the phone company can ask you to disconnect
your phone until you have resolved the problem.
REPLACING THE BATTERY PACK
If you follow the instructions in “Connecting and Charging the
Battery Pack” on Page 10, the supplied battery pack should last
for several years. When the battery pack loses its ability to fully
charge, replace it with 3.6V and 580mAh nickel-metal-hydride
batteries. You can order a replacement battery pack through
your local RadioShack store.

43-1106.fm Page 37 Wednesday, April 26, 2000 10:30 AM
Follow these steps to install the new battery pack, then charge it
for about 15–16 hours (see “Connecting and Charging the Bat-
tery Pack” on Page 10).
1. Slide off the battery compartment cover and remove the
battery pack.
2. Insert the new battery pack in the compartment and
replace the compartment cover.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Your telephone contains a rechargeable nickel-metal-hydride
battery pack. At the end of the battery pack’s useful life, it must
be recycled or disposed of properly. Contact your local, country,
or state hazardous waste management authorities for informa-
tion on recycling or disposal programs in your area. Some op-
tions that might be available are: drop off boxes at retailers such
as your local RadioShack store, recycling collection centers,
and mail back programs.
THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW
In the unlikely event that your phone causes problems on the
phone line, the phone company can temporarily discontinue
your service. If this happens, the phone company attempts to
notify you in advance. If advance notice is not practical, the
phone company notifies you as soon as possible and advises
you of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

43-1106.fm Page 38 Wednesday, April 26, 2000 10:30 AM
Also, the phone company can make changes to its lines, equip-
ment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation
of the phone. The phone company notifies you of these chang-
es in advance, so you can take the necessary steps to prevent
interruption of your phone service.
Your phone might cause TV or radio interference 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 it. Try to eliminate the inter-
ference 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 a radio/TV technician or your local RadioShack
store for help
LIGHTNING
Your phone has built-in protection circuit to reduce the risk of
damage from surges in phone line current. These protection cir-
cuits meet or exceed FCC requirements. However, lightning
striking the phone lines can damage your phone.
Lightning damage is not common. Nevertheless, if you live in an
area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you un-
plug your phone during storms to reduce the possibility of dam-
age.
