About the digital security code  
This cordless telephone uses a digital security code to prevent  
unauthorized access to your base unit. This security code prevents  
other cordless handsets from making calls through your base unit.  
A random security code will be assigned automatically between  
your base unit and handset when you charge the battery pack for  
the first time.  
If you want to reset the security code, see page 53.

Do the following steps.  
• Choose the best location  
• Connect the base unit  
• Choose the dialing mode  
Choose the best location  
Before choosing a location for your new phone, read the  
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS included in the PRECAUTIONS  
AND IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS brochure. Here are some  
important guidelines you should consider:  
Avoid heat sources, such as  
radiators, air ducts, and sunlight  
Avoid noise sources such as a window  
by a street with heavy traffic  
Avoid microwave ovens  
Avoid television sets  
and other electronic  
equipment  
Avoid excessive  
moisture, extremely low  
temperatures, dust,  
mechanical vibration, or  
shock  
Avoid personal  
computers  
Choose a central location  
Avoid other cordless  
telephones  
After installing the battery pack in the handset, charge your  
handset for 12-15 hours before plugging the phone into the phone  
line. Once the handset battery pack is fully charged, then connect  
the telephone line cord to the base and telephone wall outlet.  
The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous  
power outlet which is not switchable.  
Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise  
such as motors, microwave ovens, and fluorescent lighting.  
Be sure there is sufficient space to raise the base antenna  
fully vertical.  
The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop, or mounted on a  
standard wall plate.

Connect the base unit  
If you want to install the base unit on the wall, see page 9.  
Place the power cord so it

hazard, or where it could  
become chafed and create  
a fire or electrical hazard.

tabletop and place the handset  
on the base unit.  
Then raise the antenna to a  
vertical position.

Use only the supplied AD-420 AC  
adapter. Do not use any other AC  
adapter.  
Polarity of the plug  
Connect the AC adapter to a  
continuous power supply.  
Place the base unit close to the  
AC outlet so that you can unplug the  
AC adapter easily.  
Modular  
If your telephone outlet isn't modular,  
contact your telephone company for  
assistance.

On the base unit, pull the  
handset retainer out of the slot.  
Rotate it clockwise 180 degrees.  
Flip the retainer from front to  
back. Slide it back into the slot  
so that the lip of the retainer is  
up and the oval is down. The  
retainer holds the handset  
in place.  
Direct wall plate mounting  
If you don't have a standard wall plate, you can mount your phone  
directly to the wall. Before doing this, consider the following:  
Avoid electrical cables, pipes, or other items behind the mounting  
location, that could cause a hazard when inserting screws into  
the wall.  
Try to mount your phone within 10 - 15 feet of a working phone  
jack to avoid excessive cord lengths.  
Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of  
the base and handset.  
Use #10 screws (minimum length of 1-3/8 inches) with anchoring  
devices suitable for the wall material where the base unit will be  
placed.  
1
Insert two mounting screws  
into the wall, (with their  
appropriate anchoring device),  
3-15/16 inches apart. Allow  
about 1/8 of an inch between  
the wall and screwheads for  
mounting the phone.

Refer to steps 1 through 9 on  
page 9 and 10 to mount the  
telephone.

Seven hours continuous use.  
Seven days when the handset is in the standby mode.  
Even when the battery  
pack is not being used, it

period of time. For  
optimum performance, be  
sure to return the handset  
to the base unit after a  
telephone call.

Cleaning the battery contacts  
To maintain a good charge, it is important to clean the battery  
contacts on the handset and base unit about once a month. Use a  
dry cloth or pencil eraser, if necessary.  
The redial memory  
numbers are retained for  
up to two minutes while  
you replace the batteries.  
Do not use any liquids or solvents.  
If you must replace the  
battery pack during a  
telephone call, complete  
the replacement within  
30 seconds, and you can  
return to the original call.  
(If the replacement battery  
pack is not fully charged,  
the call may disconnect.)

There are three Caller ID setup options available; they are  
AutoTalk, CIDCW (Caller ID on Call Waiting), and Area Code.  
Auto Talk allows you to answer the phone without pressing the  
button. If the phone rings when AutoTalk is on, simply  
remove the handset from the base and the phone automatically  
answers the call. If the phone rings when AutoTalk is off, you  
must press  
to answer the call.  
Caller ID on Call Waiting (CIDCW) performs the same as  
regular Caller ID on a call waiting number. Call Waiting options  
allow you to handle call waiting calls in seven different ways.  
(See page 41.)  
You must subscribe to CIDW and CIDCW options from your  
phone company in order to use this feature.

The digital security code is an identification code used to connect  
the handset and the base unit. Normally, setting the code is  
not necessary.  
The first time you charge your handset, the security code is  
automatically set. (See page 4.)

is using the same security code, you can change the code.  
If the handset battery pack  
is completely discharged  
or the battery pack is  
removed, the digital  
security code will be lost.  
If this happens, a new  
security code is set  
automatically the next  
time the battery pack is
