INTRODUCTION
Your GE cordless telephone is designed to give you flexibility in use and
high quality performance. To get the most from your new cordless
telephone, we suggest that you take a few minutes right now to read
through this instruction manual.
CORDLESS PHONE INFORMATION
• Digital Security System
When you place the Handset in the base, the unit verifies it’s security code
which prevents false ringing from other cordless telephones. After a
power outage or battery replacement, you should place the Handset in the
base for about 20 seconds to reset the code.
• IMPORTANT: This Should Not Be The Only Phone in Your Home
Because cordless phones operate on electricity, you should have at least
one phone in your home that is not cordless, in case the power in your
home goes out.
CALLER ID INFORMATION
This device allows you to take advantage of the Caller Identification
Delivery with Call Waiting service that may be available from your local
telephone company. If you do not have this service already installed, you
must contact your local telephone company to arrange to have this service
installed on your line. There is an extra charge to your monthly telephone
bill for this service.

MODULAR JACK REQUIREMENTS
You need an RJ11C (CA11A), type modular jack, which
is the most common type of phone jack and might
look like the one pictured here. If you don’t have a
modular jack, call your local phone company to find
out how to get one installed.
INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate at 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. If interference continues, moving the cordless
telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the
interference.

4. Plug the power supply cord into the 9V

outlet.
5. Place the handset in the base (facing

hours.
a) Base Unit on Desk- Charging of
handset can be done with handset facing
either Up or Down.
b) Base Unit at Wall Mount- Charging of
handset can be done ONLY in face-up
position.
IMPORTANT: If you do not charge the
handset battery properly (for 12 hours)
when you first set up the phone, the
battery’s long-term performance will be
compromised.

CHANGING THE BATTERY
Your cordless handset is powered by a nickel cadmium battery pack
(#5-2419). The battery pack needs to be recharged periodically. A fully charged
battery gives you approximately 4 hours of talk time or 7 days of stand-by
time. Return the handset to the base whenever possible to keep the battery
adequately charged.
The handset runs on a consumer-replaceable, nickel-cadmium battery pack. If
you experience any of the following problems, you may need to replace the
battery pack: short talk time, poor sound quality, limited range, CHARGE/IN
USE light fails to light. Make sure phone is OFF before you replace battery.
1. Remove the battery compartment
door.
2. Remove the battery pack.
3. Insert the new battery into the
compartment on the back of the
handset.
4. Replace the battery compartment
door.
5. Return the handset to the base unit
for at least 12 hours to adequately
charge a new battery pack.

TELEPHONE NETWORK INFORMATION
Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may harm the
telephone network, the telephone company, where practicable, may notify
you that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. Where
prior notice is not practicable and the circumstances warrant such action,
the telephone company may temporarily discontinue service immediately.
The telephone company may make changes in its communications
facilities, equipment, operations or procedures where such action is
required in the operation of its business. If these changes are expected to
affect the use or performance of your telephone equipment, the telephone
company will likely give you adequate notice to allow you to maintain
uninterrupted service.
Notice must be given to the telephone company upon termination of your
telephone from your line.
REN NUMBER
On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other
information, the FCC Registration number and Ringer Equivalence Number
(REN) for the equipment. You must, upon request, provide this information
to your telephone company.
The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may connect
to your telephone line and still have all of these devices ring when your
telephone number is called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the
RENs of all devices connected to one line should not exceed 5. To be
certain of the number of devices you may connect to your line as
determined by the REN, you should contact your local telephone company.
