About Caller Identification  
Telephone operating range  
Caller ID with Call Waiting features in  
this telephone let you see who’s call-  
ing 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 PHONE.  
Move closer to the base, then press  
PHONE to answer the call.  
• You have only Caller ID service, or  
only Call Waiting service  
• 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.  
If you move out of range without  
pressing OFF, your phone will be left  
“off the hook.” To hang up properly,  
walk back toward the telephone base,  
periodically pressing OFF until the call  
is disconnected.  
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.  
See Caller ID Operation, beginning on  
page 28, for more details about how  
these features work.

Memory capacity  
There are separate phonebook directories in the hand-  
set and the base. Each phonebook can store up to 50  
entries. Each entry can contain a number up to 32 digits,  
and a name up to 16 letters long.  
If you subscribe to Caller ID service from your local  
telephone company, you can select a picture to be dis-  
played with each phonebook entry. You can also select  
a distinctive ringing type for each entry, so you know  
who is calling. A convenient search feature can help you  
find and dial numbers quickly (see page 20).  
Timeouts and error tones  
If you pause for too long while making an entry the  
Phonebook will time out and you will have to begin  
again.  
If all memory locations are in use, an error tone will  
sound when you attempt to enter a new number. This  
means the memory is full, and you will not be able to  
store a new number until you delete an existing one.

Charging spare batteries  
Optional spare batteries (sold separately) can be kept charged in the base, for quick  
replacement when handset batteries become depleted.  
In the event of a power failure, the charged batteries in the base will allow you to  
make and receive calls from the cordless handset for up to 2.5 hours.  
Spare batteries require at least 20 hours to reach full charge.  
Slide latch left to open battery drawer.  
Insert spare batteries,  
then close drawer.  
Caution: Use only the supplied  
NiMH battery (80-5461-00-00) or

ment battery (SKU 26820). Do not  
use alkaline batteries.

In case of difficulty  
If you have difficulty with your phone, please try the suggestions below. For Customer  
Service, visit our web site at www.telephones.att.com, or call 1 800 222–3111.  
Non-rechargeable batteries have been installed. They must be  
removed immediately and replaced with rechargeable NiMH batteries  
(see page 7).  
"Check battery"  
or "Warning!  
Use  
Rechargeable  
Batteries Only"  
is displayed on  
screen  
Rechargeable batteries have been installed but may be old or need to  
be replaced. Remove and re-install the batteries and use normally  
until fully discharged then let them fully recharge in the handset or  
base.  
If the above measures do not correct the problem, your batteries  
should be replaced (see page 7).  
Make sure batteries are installed and charged correctly (see page 7).  
Telephone does  
not work at all  
Make sure the AC adapter is plugged into an outlet not controlled by  
a wall switch.  
Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the base unit  
and the modular jack.  
Make sure the base antenna is fully upright.  
If you have dial pulse telephone service, make sure the dial mode is  
set to dial pulse (see page 17).  
If these suggestions do not work, unplug the base, remove and re-  
insert the batteries, then place the handset in the base to re-initialize.  
Make sure the ringer is on (see page 15).  
Phone does not  
ring  
Make sure the telephone line cord and AC adapter are plugged in  
properly (see page 6).  
Make sure the base antenna is fully upright.  
Move the handset closer to the base.  
You might have too many extension phones on your telephone line to  
allow all of them to ring. Try unplugging some of them.  
Make sure the base antenna is fully upright.  
If you hear  
noise or  
interference  
during a call  
You may be out of range. Move closer to the base.  
Appliances plugged into the same circuit as the base can cause  
interference. Try moving the appliance or base to another outlet.  
The layout of your home or office might be limiting the operating  
range. Try moving the base to another location, preferably on an  
upper floor.  
If the buttons don’t work, try placing the handset in the base for at  
least 15 seconds.  
Disconnect the base from the modular jack and plug in a corded tele-  
phone. If calls are still not clear, the problem is probably in your  
wiring or local service. Call your local telephone service company.

In case of difficulty  
You were probably almost out of range. Move closer to the base  
before changing channels. Before placing another call, set the hand-  
set in the base for at least 15 seconds.  
If you lose a call  
after changing  
channels  
If a caller leaves a very long message, part of it may be lost when the  
system disconnects the call after 4 minutes.  
Incomplete  
messages  
If the caller pauses for more than 7 seconds, the system stops  
recording and disconnects the call.  
If the system’s memory becomes full during a message, the system  
stops recording and disconnects the call.

after correct  
number of rings  
If Toll Saver is activated, the number of rings changes to 2 when you  
have new messages waiting (see page 39).  
In some cases, the system may be affected by the ringing system  
used by the local telephone company.  
If the memory is full or the system is off, the system will answer after  
10 rings.  
You need to reset the answering system clock (see page 36).  
“CL” flashes in

touch-tone telephone and cannot activate the answering system.  
commands  
The answering system may not detect the Remote Access Code  
while your announcement is playing. Try waiting until the announce-  
ment is over before entering the code.  
There may be noise or interference on the phone line you are using.  
Press dial-pad buttons firmly.  
When you record your announcement, make sure you speak in a  
normal tone of voice, about 9 inches from the base.
