INTRODUCTION  
Congratulations!  
You have pur-  
Base Unit. This enables you to make  
and receive calls hands-free at the  
Base. In addtion, the Intercom feature  
allows two-way communication  
between the Handset and Base Unit.  
PressingINTER.COM ontheBasecan  
also assist you in locating a misplaced  
Handset.  
chased one of the most sophisticated  
cordless telephones on the market!  
The Sprint cordless phone has been  
designed to offer a new standard in  
cordless telephone technology.  
Unlike most other cordless phones,  
the Sprint cordless phone digitizes  
yourvoiceusingadvanceddigitalvoice  
coding to provide noise and distortion  
free performance. In most conditions  
you will not be able to tell you are using  
a cordless phone. Gone are the an-  
noyances of static, interference and  
having to listen to other people’s con-  
versations on your cordless phone.  
The Sprint cordless phone uses  
special memory in both the Base Unit  
and Handset which is not susceptible  
to power failures. This provides per-  
manent storage of all speed dial num-  
bers, CID information as well as the  
Base Unit and Handset security codes.  
When the spare battery is installed in  
the Base Unit, the Sprint cordless  
phone uses this battery to provide op-  
erational backup in case of power  
failure. In this way, you have access to  
all normal phone functions during a  
total power outage. Calls can still be  
placed and received without interrup-  
tion. More than 4 hours backup will be  
possible with a fully charged battery in  
the Base Unit.  
The Sprint cordless phone  
scramblesyourvoicebeforeittransmits  
it. This allows you the security of  
knowing that no one can tune in and  
eavesdrop on your conversations.  
TheSprintcordlessphonedecodes  
and displays name and number Caller  
ID (CID) information where available  
and when subscribed to. The alpha-  
numeric display will show both the  
name and number of the calling party  
(when available). Up to 15 name  
characters and/or 11 phone number  
digits can be displayed on the LCD.  
The phone will also alert you when  
youareOutofRangeevenwhenyou're  
not using the phone!  
WiththeSprintcordlessphone,the  
user can easily answer a call by  
pressing any key other than the OFF,  
VOLUME keys or 3 PPU keys. In  
addition, the handset keypad and LCD  
illuminate while the handset rings to  
signal an incoming call. This is very  
useful in a dark environment.

devices to ring when you receive a call.  
The general rule is that the REN value  
should not exceed 5.0 total; however,  
contact your local telephone company  
for the specific number in your area.

INSTALLING THE BATTERY PACK  
The Handset of your Sprint  
cordless phone cordless telephone is  
powered by a rechargeable battery  
pack. It charges automatically when-  
ever the Handset is in the Base Unit.  
You should charge the battery pack for  
16 hours when you first receive your  
phone. You’ll know the battery pack  
needs charging when:  
Alternatively, if the  
spare battery pack has been  
charging in the Base Unit, simply ex-  
change the drained Handset battery  
pack with the fully charged replace-  
ment battery pack from the Base Unit  
charger. Place the drained Handset  
batterypackintotheBaseUnitcharger  
so that it will charge.  
The low battery message is  
displayed:  
The Base Unit spare battery charger  
does NOT charge a battery pack as  
quickly as the main Handset battery  
charger. A full charge requires 24  
hours.  
A WORD ABOUT RECHARGE-  
ABLE BATTERIES  
The Handset seems completely  
dead, the LCD is completely clear  
and does not activate when you  
press the keys.  
Your Ni-Cd battery pack recharges  
whenever the Handset is returned to  
the Base Unit.

The battery pack can be recharged

battery pack(s) should be replaced.  
Handset in the Base Unit. The  
CHARGING indicator will light to show  
the Handset is seated properly and the  
battery pack is charging. It is recom-  
mended that the battery pack be  
charged for at least 16 hours initially.  
Afterwards, 8 hours of maintenance  
charging should be sufficient. You can  
use your telephone before that with  
diminished capacity, but it is best to  
charge the battery pack fully. It will take  
several recharge cycles to maximize  
the charge capacity of your battery  
pack. The maximum battery life be-  
tween charges is 7 hours of continuous  
talk time or 14 days of stand by.  
To purchase replacement battery  
packs, call VTech at 1-800-835-

SPARE BATTERY CHARGER /  
POWER BACKUP FUNCTION  
When the Spare Battery pack is  
installed in the Base Unit, the Sprint  
cordless phone uses this battery to  
provide operational backup in case of  
a power failure. If you have a fully  
charged battery pack in the Spare  
Battery charger and there is a power  
outage, you will still be able to place  
andreceivecallsontheSprintcordless

4.Replace the battery case cover by  
sliding the cover upwards.  
5.If the new battery pack is not  
already charged, place the Hand-  
set in the cradle of the Base Unit  
to allow it to charge for 16 hours.  
The Spare Battery pack can also be  
used to replace a drained Handset  
battery to ensure uninterrupted use.  
Be sure to put the drained battery pack  
in the Spare Battery charger.

ticcasingthatshouldretainitslusterfor  
many years. Clean it only with a soft  
cloth slightly dampened with water or  
a mild soap. Do not use excess water  
or cleaning solvents of any kind.

Place the Handset down gently. Save  
the original packing materials to  
protect your telephone if you ever  
need to ship it.  
Remember that electrical appliances  
can cause serious injury if used when  
you are wet or standing in water. If  
your base unit should fall into water,  
DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU  
UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND  
TELEPHONE LINE CORDS FROM  
THE WALL. Then pull the unit out by  
the unplugged cords.  
AVOID WATER  
Your telephone can be damaged if it  
gets wet. Do not use the Handset  
outdoors in the rain, or handle it with  
wet hands. Do not install your Base  
Unit near a sink, bathtub or shower.

cause power surges harmful to elec-  
tronic equipment.  
For your own safety, be caution when  
using electrical appliances during

A WEAK SIGNAL WHEN  
YOU’RE AWAY FROM THE  
BASE UNIT.

Base Unit.  
The layout of your home may be  
limiting the range. Try moving the  
Base Unit to another position.  
THE PHONE DOESN’T WORK  
AT ALL.  
Make sure the Power Cord is  
plugged in.  
Make sure the telephone line  
cord is plugged firmly into the  
Base Unit and the telephone wall  
jack.

First check all the suggestions  
above.  
If you still don’t hear a dial tone,

service. Call your local telephone  
company.

A WEAK SIGNAL EVEN

probably in your wiring or local  
service. Call your local telephone  
company.
