Important Note: 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-551. 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.
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 shown
on the bottom of the 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,
your phones might not ring. In rural ar-
eas, a total REN of three might impair
ringer operation. If ringer operation is
impaired, remove a device from the
line.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
fire or shock hazard, do not ex-
pose this product to rain or mois-
ture.

Notes:
• Your telephone connects directly
to a modular telephone line jack. If
your phone line jack is not a mod-
ular jack, you can update the wir-
ing yourself, using jacks and
adapters available at your local
RadioShack store. Or, you can let
the phone company update the
wiring for you.
• The USOC number of the jack to
be installed is RJ11C (RJ11W if
you want to mount it on a wall

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your RadioShack ET-551 25-Channel Cordless Phone with 10-Number Memory is
an example of superior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will
help you care for your cordless 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.
Handle the phone gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage cir-
cuit boards and cases and can cause the phone to work improperly.
Use and store the phone only in normal temperature environments.
Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices,
damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.
Keep the phone away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature
wear of parts.
Wipe the phone with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking
new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong deter-
gents to clean the phone.
Modifying or tampering with the phone’s internal components can cause a malfunc-
tion and might invalidate your phone’s warranty and void your FCC authorization to
operate it. 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 phone lines, the phone
company might ask you to disconnect your phone until you have resolved the prob-
lem.

2. Gently pull out the battery connec-
tor to disconnect it, then remove
the battery pack.
REPLACING THE
BATTERY PACK
If you follow the instructions in “Con-
necting and Charging the Battery
Pack” on Page 9, the battery pack
should last about one year. If the bat-
tery pack will not hold a charge for
more than 2 hours after an overnight
charge, replace it with a new 3.6 V,
300 mAh battery pack with a connector
that fits the socket in the battery com-
partment. You can order a replace-
ment battery pack through your local
RadioShack store.
3. Insert a fresh battery pack and
insert its connector into the socket
inside the battery compartment.
Install the new battery pack as de-
scribed here, then charge the battery
pack (see “Connecting and Charging
the Battery Pack” on Page 9).
4. Replace the cover.
Cautions:
• You must use a replacement bat-
tery pack of the same size and
type.
Note: To avoid losing phone numbers
stored in memory, try to install and be-
gin charging the new battery pack
within about 2 minutes.
• Do not dispose of the battery pack
in a fire because it might explode.
1. Press down and slide off the
handset’s battery compartment
cover as shown.
• Do not open or mutilate the bat-
tery pack.
• Be careful not to short the battery
pack by touching it with conduct-
ing materials, such as rings,
bracelets, and keys. The battery
pack or conductor might overheat
and burn.

Important: This phone contains a re-
chargeable nickel-cadmium battery
pack. At the end of the battery pack’s
useful life, it must be recycled or dis-
posed of properly. Contact your local,
county, or state hazardous waste man-
agement authorities for information on
recycling or disposal programs in your
area. Some options that might be
available are: municipal curb-side col-
lection, drop-off boxes at retailers such
as your local RadioShack store, recy-
cling collection centers, and mail-back
programs.
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 the inter-
ference.
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 electri-
cal circuit from the receiver
• Contacting
dioShack store for help
your
local
Ra-
THE FCC WANTS YOU
TO KNOW
If you cannot eliminate the interfer-
ence, the FCC requires that you stop
using your phone.
In the unlikely event that your phone
causes problems on the phone line,
the phone company can temporarily
discontinue your service. If this hap-
pens, the phone company attempts to
notify you in advance. If advance no-
tice is not practical, the phone compa-
ny notifies you as soon as possible and
advises you of your right to file a com-
plaint with the FCC.
Some cordless phones operate at fre-
quencies that might cause interference
to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize
or prevent such interference, the base
of the cordless phone should not be

LIGHTNING
Your telephone has built-in lightning
protection to reduce the risk of damage
from surges in telephone line and pow-
er line current. This lightning protection
meets or exceeds FCC requirements.
However, lightning striking the tele-
phone 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 sug-
gest you unplug your phone during
storms to reduce the possibility of
damage.
