Remember to save your sales receipt and original packaging in case you ever need to
ship your telephone for warranty service. Check to make sure the telephone package
includes the following:
About Caller Identification
Telephone operating range
Caller ID with Call Waiting features in
this telephone let you see who’s calling
before you answer the phone, even
when you’re on another call. These
features require services provided by
your local telephone company.
This cordless telephone operates with
the maximum power allowed by the
Federal Communications Commission
(FCC). Even so, this handset and base
can communicate over only a certain
distance — which can vary with the
locations of the base and handset, the
weather, and the construction of your
home or office. For best performance,
keep the base antenna fully upright.
Contact your telephone service
provider if:
• You have both Caller ID and Call
Waiting, but as separate services
(you may need combined service)
If you receive a call while you are
out of range, the handset might not
ring — or if it does ring, the call might
not connect when you press P.
Move closer to the base, then press
P to answer the call.
• You have only Caller ID service, or
only Call Waiting service
Telephone base
Telephone handset
• You don’t subscribe to any Caller
ID or Call Waiting services.
If you move out of range during a
phone conversation, you might hear
noise or interference. To improve
reception,move closer to the base.
You can use this phone with regular
Caller ID service, and you can use its
other features without subscribing to
either Caller ID or combined Caller ID
with Call Waiting service. There may
be fees for these services, and they
may not be available in all areas.
Power
adapter
If you move out of range without
pressing O, your phone will be left
“off the hook.” To hang up properly,
walk back toward the telephone base,
periodically pressing Ountil the call is
disconnected.
Battery pack
Belt clip
Caller ID features will work only if
both you and the caller are in areas
offering Caller ID service, and if both
telephone companies use compatible
equipment.
Long line cord
Short line cord
See Caller ID Operation, beginning on
page 20, for more details about how
these features work.

Outgoing announcements are the messages callers hear
when calls are answered by the answering system.
To set day and time
Before playing each message, the answering system
announces the day and time the message was received.
The phone is pre-programmed with an announcement
that answers calls with “Hello. Please leave a message
after the tone.” You can use this announcement, or
replace it with a recording of your own voice.
Elapsed recording time (seconds)
Before using the answering system, you should follow
the steps at left to set the day and time, so messages
are dated correctly.
