*
9. Some cordless phones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to  
nearby TVs and VCRs; To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the  
cordless phone should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interfer  
ence is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or  
VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.

Select an area to install the unit where it is closest to the center of your home or office.  
This will improve the operating range of the unit.  
Keep the unit base unit away from electrical equipment. Radio Frequency Inter ference

cordless reception.  
Keep the handset batteries charged as much as possible. Weak handset batteries can  
limit the range of cordless operation.

Follow these guidelines to improve cordless sound quality:  
MAXIMIZING BATTERY LIFE  
Repeated use or recharge of Ni-Cd batteries without periodic full discharge results in re-  
duced useable charge time. When you notice the usable charge duration decreasing, fully  
discharge the Ni-Cd battery and recharge as described:  
DISCHARGING  
1. Unplug the telephone line cord from the unit.  
2. Make sure that the adapter is connected.  
3. Lift the handset out of the base cradle.  
4.  
Press the TALK button of the handset and start discharging.  
appears on the LCD Display, it means that the battery level is low. Let it  
Once the  
LOW  
fully discharge for 12 hour. Once the Ni-Cd battery is fully discharged, you may now charge  
the battery to its full capacity.  
CHARGING  
1. Make sure the adapter and telephone line cord is connected to the unit.  
2. Place the handset on the base cradle. The CHG(Charge) LED indicator of the base  
unit will light steadily.  
3. Leave the handset charging on the base for 20 hours continuously to get a maximum charge.  
4. The unit is now ready for regular use. Discharge and charge the Ni-Cd battery again  
once you notice a decrease in the useable charge time.  
MAINTENANCE  
1. Your phone should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heaters,  
stoves or any other appliance that produces heat.  
2. Use a slightly damp cloth to clean the plastic cabinet. A mild soap will help to remove  
grease or oil. Never use polish, solvents, abrasives or strong detergents since these  
can damage the finish.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION  
This cordless phone uses radio frequencies to allow mobility. There are certain difficulties  
in using radio frequencies with a cordless telephone. While these are normal, the following  
could affect the operation of your system.  
NOISE: Electric pulse noise is present in most homes at one time or another. This noise is  
most intense during electrical storms. Certain kinds of electric equipment such as light  
dimmers, fluorescent bulbs, motors, and fans also generate noise pulses. Because radio  
frequencies are susceptible to these noise pulses, you may occasionally hear them in your  
handset. Generally, they are minor annoyances and should not be interpreted as defects in  
your system.  
RANGE: Because radio frequencies are used, location of the base unit can affect operat-  
ing range. Try several locations in your home or business and pick the one that gives you  
the clearest signal.  
INTERFERENCE: Some electronic devices operate in and/or generate interference near  
the operating frequencies of your cordless telephone. While several protection circuits are  
used to prevent unwanted signals, there may be periods when these unwanted signals  
cause interference. If interference occurs frequently, it can be minimized or eliminated by  
relocating the base unit. You can check for interference before selecting the final base unit  
location by plugging in the phone.  
AUTOMATIC DIGITAL SECURITY: This system helps protect the privacy of your tele-  
phone conversation from other cordless phones nearby. Whenever the handset is returned  
to the base, a new security code between the handset and base is randomly generated (up  
to 1 million combinations).  
NOTE: If replacing the handset battery, the system ID is lost, along with the link between  
the handset and base. In order to reestablish the security ID, return the handset to the base  
until the CHG (Charge) / IN USE LED indicator lights and a beep is heard.  
ADAPTER: Use only with Class 2 Power Source 9VAC 500 mA.
