If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult your dealer
or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. Also, the
Federal Communications Commission has prepared a helpful booklet, “How To
Identify and Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is available
from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Please specify
stock number 004-000-00345-4 when ordering copies.

NOTE: Alkaline (NEDA 1604A) batteries are
Handset Layout
recommended. Carbon-zinc (NEDA 1604) batteries
may be used but memory holding time will be
substantially reduced. Memory holding time for a
fresh alkaline battery is approximately 3 months (if
Wake System is not activated), which should take
care of short, nuisance-type AC power failures.
To preserve battery life, the phone should remain
plugged into an AC electrical outlet. As the battery
gets older, its voltage drops and memory may be
lost. Be sure to replace the battery periodically. A
backup battery is not included with this telephone.

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.

Rights of the Telephone Company
PRESS DOWN
The built-in Automatic Frequency Control (AFC) works only on FM
mode. It helps keep the radio locked onto the FM stations/frequencies.
Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may harm the telephone
network, the telephone company shall, where practicable, 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. In case of such temporary
discontinuance, the telephone company must: (1) promptly notify you of such
temporary discontinuance; (2) afford you the opportunity to correct the situation;
and (3) inform you of your right to bring a complaint to the Commission pursuant
to procedures set forth in Subpart E of Part 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.
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 and not inconsistent with FCC Rules and Regulations. If
these changes are expected to affect the use or performance of your telephone
equipment, the telephone company must give you adequate notice, in writing, to
allow you to maintain uninterrupted service.

Digital Security System
Choose the best location to install your telephone. Your telephone
should be placed on a level surface, such as a desk or table top.
Set Radio Alarm Preset Channel
1. Press and hold the alarm 1 or alarm 2 button for two seconds.
2. Press the set button three times.
3. Press the tune + or - button to scroll through the preset
(1-5) channels to select a channel for the alarm. The frequency

channel for the alarm will be the most recent tuned channel.
FM Antenna
Your cordless phone uses a digital security system to protect against
false ringing, unauthorized access, and charges to your phone line.
The power cord acts as your FM antenna. The power cord picks up
moderate to strong signals and eliminates the need for an external
antenna in most strong signal areas. Be sure the power cord is
stretched to its longest length. Do not coil or bunch the cord together.
Changing position of the power cord may improve reception.
1. Plug one end of the straight telephone line cord into the PHONE
LINE jack on the base.
When you place the handset in the base, the unit verifies its security
code. After a power outage or battery replacement, you should place
the handset in the base for about 20 seconds to reset the code.
2. Plug the other end into a wall jack.
3. Set the RINGER switch on the handset to ON and place the handset
in the cradle on the base.
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 oven, or VCR.
If such interference continues, move the cordless
telephone farther away from these appliances.
Certain other communications devices may also
use the 2.4 GHz 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 2.4 GHz frequency for
communication include wireless audio/video senders,
wireless computer networks, multi-handset cordless
telephone systems, and some long-range cordless
telephone systems.
Headphone Output
Interference Information
NOTE: The charge indicator (on the base) turns on

the base unit, the speaker output will be automatically switched to the
headphone terminal.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference; and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.

Connecting the Electrical Power
1. Plug one end of the power adaptor cord into the back of the base.
2. Plug the other end into an electrical outlet.
Auxiliary Audio-In Jack
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.
If no action is taken, unit will exit menu and return to stand-by mode.
When the audio on/off button is turned on and an auxiliary audio-in
jack is inserted from an external audio source, the unit automatically
switches from broadcast to the external source and AUXILIARY AUDIO
shows on the display.

Handset Setup
Programmable Menus
This telephone is equipped with a memory holding system powered by
a customer-installed 9-volt alkaline battery (not included).
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna (that is, the antenna for radio or
television that is “receiving” the interference).
• Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the
telecommunications equipment and receiving antenna.
• Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiving antenna is connected.
Turning Off the Alarms
After the wake mode is activated, to turn off the alarm, press the off,
alarm 1, or alarm 2 buttons. The alarm setting is retained and comes
on the next day.
When electrical power is interrupted, or the electrical line is
unplugged, the battery operates the clock to retain the time of day
and alarm settings in memory. When the unit is running on battery
power, the digital display does not light up; however, if wake time
occurs during the power interruption, the alarm buzzer sounds
(regardless of the type of alarm tone selected) if remaining battery
power is adequate. Normal operation resumes after electrical power
is restored.
There are five programmable menus available: Language, Local
Area Code, Ringer Tone, Tone/Pulse and Factory Default. When you
program these settings, make sure the phone is OFF (not in talk mode).
Pressing the EXIT/TONE* button will remove you from the menu
selection process without changing the feature you are in.
