Battery Safety Precautions  
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B  
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide  
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.  
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not  
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference  
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur  
in a particular installation.  
• Do not burn, disassemble, mutilate, or puncture. Like other batteries of this type,  
toxic materials could be released which can cause injury.  
NOTE: The system treats PAUSES as delays or spaces in the  
dialing sequence.

Digital Security System  
• Reset the battery. Unplug the battery and plug it in again after five seconds.  
NOTE: You must connect the handset battery before use.  
• Keep batteries out of the reach of children.  
Your cordless phone uses a digital security system to protect against false ringing,  
unauthorized access, and charges to your phone line.  
Storing the Last Number Dialed  
1. Repeat steps 1 through 4 in Storing a Name and Number in Memory.  
2. Press the redial button.  
• Reset the power supply. Unplug the supply and plug it in again after five  
seconds.  
3. When finished, press the TALK/END button again or place the handset on the

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury, use only the  
Thomson Inc. approved Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cd) battery model  
5-2729 or Nickel-Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) battery model 5-2522,  
which is compatible with this unit.  
• Remove batteries if storing over 30 days.  
INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate at  
frequencies that may cause or receive interference with nearby  
TVs, microwave ovens, 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, microwave ovens, or VCR. If such interference  
continues, move the cordless telephone farther away from these  
appliances.  
Certain other communications devices may also use the 5.8 GHz / 900  
MHz frequency for communication, and, if not properly set, these  
devices may interfere with each other and/or your new telephone.  
If you are concerned with interference, please refer to the owner’s  
manual for these devices on how to properly set channels to avoid  
interference. Typical devices that may use the 5.8 GHz frequency  
for communication include wireless audio/video senders, wireless  
computer networks, multi-handset cordless telephone systems, and  
some long-range cordless telephone systems.  
Privacy of Communications may not be ensured when using this product.

compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.  
On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other information, the  
US 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.  
A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone  
network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted  
by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this  
product. It is designed to be connected to a compatible modular jack that is also  
compliant. See installation instructions for details.  
Important Installation Guidelines  
While talking on the phone, it may be necessary for you to manually change the  
channel to improve reception and reduce noise or static on the line. Press and  
release the chan button to move to the next clear channel.
