This telephone has been tested and found to comply with all appli-
cable UL and FCC standards.
We recommend you record your phone’s serial number here. The
number is on the bottom of the base.
Serial Number: __________________
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.
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 phone might
not ring. In rural areas, a total REN of three might impair ringer op-
eration. If ringer operation is impaired, 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 bottom of the
base.
Note: You must not connect your SP-514 to any of the following:
² coin-operated systems
² party-line systems
² most electronic key phone systems

SELECTING A LOCATION
You can place the phone on a desk top or table, mount it on a stan-
dard wall plate, or mount it directly on the wall. Select a location
that is:
² near an AC outlet not controlled by a wall switch
² near a telephone line jack
² out of the way of normal activities
² away from electrical machinery, electrical appliances, metal
walls or filing cabinets, wireless intercoms, alarms, and room mon-
itors
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 perfor-
mance.
Caution: You must use a Class 2 power source that supplies 12
volts DC and delivers at least 200 mA. Its center tip must be set to
!
POWER
positive and its plug must fit the SP-514's
jack. The sup-
plied adapter meets these specifications. Using an adapter that
does not meet these specifications could damage the SP-514 or
the adapter.
Notes:
² 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 company update the
wiring for you.
² The USOC number of the jack to be installed is RJ11C (RJ11W
for a wall plate).

compartment cover. Plug the
battery connector into the
socket inside the compart-
ment. Then place the battery
pack into the compartment
and replace the cover.
Note: The connector fits only one way. Do not force it.
To charge the battery pack,
simply place the handset
facedown on the base. The
CHARGING indicator on the

Notes:
² When you first use the phone after charging or recharging the
battery pack, the phone might not work and you might hear a two-
PHONE
beep signal when you press
. If this happens, return the
handset to the base for about 30 seconds. This resets the security
access protection code.
² If the CHARGING 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.
Also, check the charging
contacts on the handset and
the base. If the contacts are
dirty or tarnished, clean them
with a pencil eraser.
Charging
Contacts
² If the battery pack gets completely discharged or the base loses
power while the handset is away from it, the security access-
protection code needs to be reset. To reset the code, place the
handset on the base for about 30 seconds. If it was the handset
that lost power, leave the handset on the base to charge the bat-
tery pack.
² If the battery pack gets weak during a call, the handset sounds
4 beeps every 30 seconds. If this happens, you cannot make
another call on the phone until you recharge the battery pack.
² About once a month, fully discharge the battery pack by keep-
ing the handset off the base until the LOW BATT indicator lights.
Otherwise, the battery pack loses its ability to fully recharge.
² 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 usable life.

Note
MEMORY DIALING
You can store up to 10 numbers (up to 16 digits each) in memory,
then dial a stored number by pressing PROG/MEM and one of the
number buttons.
Storing a Number in Memory
Notes:
² If the dialing mode is set for pulse service and you want to use
tone dialing for a memory number, you must store a tone as the
first entry of the number (see “Using Tone Services on a Pulse
Line” on Page 16).
² Do not store a number with both pulse and tone entries in the
same memory location. This could result in a wrong number being
dialed.
² Each pause (see “Entering a Pause” on Page 18) and tone
entry uses one digit of memory.
² To keep your accounts secure, we recommend you do not store
your personal access code for services such as bank-by-phone in
a memory location.
² An error tone sounds and the phone exits the programming
mode if you wait more than 30 seconds between each keypress or
enter more than 16 digits. You must start over at Step 1.
Follow these steps to store a number in memory.

1 Press PROG/MEM.
2 Enter the number you
want to store. (To store the
last number you dialed, sim-
ply press REDIAL.)
If you enter a wrong digit, press PHONE twice to exit the proce-
dure. Then start over at Step 1.
3 Press PROG/MEM then press one of the number buttons (0–9).
The SP-514 beeps three times.
Note: If you receive a call while you are storing information in
memory, press PHONE to answer the call. A tone sounds. After the
call, begin again at Step 1.
A memory index sticker is supplied with your SP-514. We recom-
mend you write each stored number next to its number key loca-
tion (MEM 1 for number 1, MEM 2 for 2, and so on). (Use a pencil
in case you change the stored number.) Peel the backing from the
sticker and attach it to the handset or the base.
To replace a stored number, simply store a new one in its place.
Entering a Pause
In some telephone systems, you must dial an access code (9, for
example) and wait for a second dial tone before you can dial an
outside number. You can store the access code with the phone
number. However, you should also store a pause after the access
code to allow the outside line time to connect. To do so, hold down
the number immediately preceding the pause until you hear a
second beep. (For example, if 9 is your access code, hold down 9
until you hear a second beep.) This enters a 1.5-second pause.

tional beeps.
Dialing a Memory Number
Press PHONE. When you hear the dial tone, press PROG/MEM,
then press the number button for the number you are calling.
Chain-Dialing Service Numbers
For quick recall of numbers for special services (such as alternate
long distance or bank by phone), store each group of numbers in
its own memory location.
When calling special services, dial the service’s main number first.
Then at the appropriate place in the call, press PROG/MEM, then
enter the number for the location where the additional information
is stored.
Testing Stored Emergency Numbers
If you store an emergency service’s number (police department,
fire department, ambulance) and you choose to test the stored
number, make the test call during the late evening or early morning
hours to avoid peak demand periods. Remain on the line to explain
the reason for your call.

Care and Maintenance
n Care and Maintenance
Your SP-514 25-Channel Lighted Big Button Phone 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
can contain minerals that corrode the electronic circuits.
Handle the phone gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage cir-
cuit boards and cases and cause the phone to work improperly.
Use and store the phone only in normal temperature environ-
ments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic de-
vices, damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.
Keep the phone away from dust and dirt which can cause prema-
ture 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 de-
tergents to clean your phone.
Modifying or tampering with the phone’s internal components can
cause a malfunction and might invalidate its warranty and void
your FCC authorization to operate it. If your phone is not perform-
ing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assis-
tance. If the trouble is affecting the phone lines, the phone
company might ask you to disconnect your phone until you have
resolved the problem.

Care and Maintenance
REPLACING THE HANDSET BATTERY PACK
If you follow the instructions in “Installing and Charging the Battery
Pack” on Page 9, the battery pack should last about one year. If
the battery pack does not hold a charge for more than 2 hours after
an overnight charge, replace the battery pack with a new 3.6 volt,
270 milliamp battery pack. You can order a replacement battery
pack through your local RadioShack store.
Follow the directions in “Installing and Charging the Battery Pack”
on Page 9 to install and charge the new battery pack.
Cautions:
² You must use a replacement battery pack of the same size and
type.
² Dispose of the battery pack promptly and properly. Do not bury
or burn it.
² Always remove old or weak batteries. Batteries can leak chemi-
cals that can destroy electronic parts.
If you have trouble replacing the battery pack, take the phone to
your local RadioShack store for assistance.
Important: This product contains a rechargeable nickel-cadmium
battery pack. At the end of the battery pack’s useful life, it must be
recycled or disposed of properly. Contact your local, county, or
state hazardous waste management authorities for information on
recycling or disposal programs in your area. Some options that
might be available are: municipal curb-side collection, drop-off
boxes at retailers such as your local RadioShack store, recycling
collection centers, and mail-back programs.

Care and Maintenance
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.
Also, the phone company can make changes to its lines, equip-
ment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of
this telephone. The telephone company notifies you of these
changes in advance, so you can take the necessary steps to pre-
vent interruption of your telephone 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 the interference. Try to eliminate the inter-
ference by:
² moving your phone away from the receiver
² connecting your phone to an AC outlet that is on a different
electrical circuit from the receiver
² contacting your local RadioShack store for help
If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you
stop using your phone.
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.

Care and Maintenance
LIGHTNING
Your telephone has built-in lightning protection to reduce the risk of
damage from surges in telephone line and power line current. This
lightning protection meets or exceeds FCC requirements. Howev-
er, 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 during storms to reduce the possibility of damage.
