43-1110.fm Page 4 Wednesday, August 18, 1999 8:22 AM
Important: Cordless phones such as
this one require AC power to operate.
When the AC power is off, you cannot
dial out or receive incoming calls using
your ET-1110. For this reason, the ET-
1110 cordless phone should not be your
only telephone. To be safe, you should
also have a phone that does not require
AC power to operate (not a cordless
phone) so you can still make and receive
calls if there is an AC power failure.
READ THIS BEFORE
INSTALLATION
Each device that you connect to the
phone line draws power from the phone
line. We refer to this power draw as the
device’s ringer equivalence number, or
REN. The REN is on the bottom of the
base.
If you are using more than one phone or
other device on the line, add up all the
RENs. If the total is more than five, your
phone might not ring. In rural areas, a to-
tal REN of three might impair ringer oper-
ation. If ringer operation is impaired,
remove a device from the line.
Your telephone operates on standard ra-
dio frequencies as allocated by the FCC.
Even though the access protection code
prevents unauthorized use of your phone
line, it is possible for other radio units op-
erating on similar frequencies within a
certain area to unintentionally intercept
your conversations and/or cause inter-
ference. This lack of privacy can occur
with any cordless phone.
FCC STATEMENT
This telephone complies with Part 68 of
FCC Rules. You must, upon request,
provide the FCC registration number and
the REN to your phone company. These
numbers are on the bottom of the base.
Note: You must not connect your ET-
1110 to any of the following:
• coin-operated systems
• party-line systems
• most electronic key phone systems

PREPARATION
SELECTING A LOCATION
You can place the phone on a desk top or table, mount it on a standard wall plate, or
mount it directly on the wall. Select a location that is:
• near an AC outlet
• near a telephone line jack
• out of the way of normal activities
• away from electrical machinery, electrical appliances, metal walls or filing cabi-
nets, wireless intercoms, alarms, and room monitors
The base’s location affects the phone’s range. If you have a choice of several loca-
tions, try each to see which provides the best performance.
Caution: The supplied AC adapter was designed specifically for your ET-1110. Use
only the supplied adapter.
Note:
• Your telephone connects directly to a modular telephone line jack. If your phone
line jack is not a modular jack, you can update the wiring yourself, using jacks
and adapters available at your local RadioShack store. Or, you can let the phone
company update the wiring for you. The USOC number of the jack to be installed
is RJ11C (RJ11W if you want to mount it on a wall plate).

To charge the battery pack, simply place
the handset on the base. The CHARGE
indicator on the base lights.
CONNECTING AND
CHARGING THE BATTERY
PACK
The ET-1110 comes with a rechargeable
nickel-cadmium battery pack in the
handset but not connected. Before using
your phone, you must connect the bat-
tery pack and then charge it for about 15
hours.
CHARGE
Indicator
Recharge the battery pack when
appears on the handset’s display.
1. Press down and slide off the com-
partment cover as shown.
Low Battery Indicator
Notes:
2. Plug the battery pack’s connector
into the socket in the compartment.
The connector fits only one way.
• You can place the handset on the
base face down or face up without
removing the belt clip. If you want to
use the hanging hole on the back of
the handset to place the handset on
the wall-mounted base face-up, re-
move the belt clip (see “Removing
the Belt Clip” on Page 27). However,
the battey pack will not fully charge
in this position.
• When you first use the phone after
charging or recharging the battery
pack, the phone might not work and
you might hear an error tone when

nection, lift it out of the compart-
ment, insert its connector into the

• If the CHARGE indicator does not
light when you place the handset on
the base, be sure the battery pack
and AC adapter are correctly and
securely connected.
• About once a month, fully discharge
the battery pack by keeping the
handset off the base until
ap-
pears. Otherwise, the battery pack
loses its ability to fully recharge.
Also, check the charging contacts
on the handset and the base. If the
contacts are dirty or tarnished, clean
them with a pencil eraser.
• To avoid damage to the battery
pack, always recharge the handset
before battery power grows too
weak to light
.
• If you are not going to use your
phone for an extended period of
time, disconnect the battery pack.
This increases the battery pack’s
usable life.
• The supplied battery pack should
last for about a year. When it loses
its ability to fully recharge, order a
replacement battery pack from your
local RadioShack store (see “Re-
placing the Battery Pack” on
Page 31).
If the battery and AC connections
are correct and secure and the
charging contacts are clean, the bat-
tery might be fully charged. This is
not a malfunciton.
• If the battery pack gets completely
discharged or the base loses power
while the handset is away from it,
the security access-protection code
needs to be reset. To reset the secu-
rity code, place the handset on the
base. If it was the handset that lost
power, leave the handset on the
base to charge the battery pack.
• If the battery pack gets weak during
a call, the handset sounds 4 beeps
every 30 seconds. If this happens,
you cannot make another call on the
phone until you recharge the battery
pack.

USING A HEADSET
REMOVING THE BELT
CLIP
You can make or answer calls with
hands-free convenience using an option-
The belt clip on the back of the handset
lets you hang on the belt for easy porta-
bility. But to use the hanging hole on the
back of the handset to place the handset
on the wall-mounted base face-up, you
must remove the belt clip.
3
al headset that has a /32-inch (2.5 mm)
plug. We recommend RadioShack Cat.
No. 43-195 (not supplied), which is spe-
cially designed for use with the ET-1110.
Follow these steps to use a headset.
Insert a flat-blade screwdriver into either
side of the belt clip, then pull off it.
1. Insert the headset’s plug into the
jack on the top of the handset.
To replace the belt clip, insert either tab
of the belt clip into one slot of the hand-
set, then snap the other tab into other
slot of the handset.
2. Place the headset on your head with
the earpiece over either ear and ad-
just the microphone boom until it is
about even with your chin.
3. Hang the belt blip on your belt.
4. Make or receive calls as you would
normally.
Notes:
• Connecting a headset disconnects
the handset’s earpiece and micro-
phone.
• If you place the handset on the base
to recharge it while the headset is
connected, be sure the handset
seats properly.

terference is severe, turn off the interfering
device.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your ET-1110 900 MHz 20-Channel Analog Cordless Telephone is an example of su-
perior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for your
phone so you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the phone dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids can
contain minerals that corrode the electronic circuits.
Handle the phone gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage circuit
boards and cases and cause the phone to work improperly.
Use and store the phone only in normal temperature environments.
Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices and
distort or melt plastic parts.
Keep the phone away from dust and dirt which can cause premature
wear of parts.
Wipe the phone with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to
clean your phone.
Modifying or tampering with the phone’s internal components can cause a malfunction
and might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If your
phone is not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assis-
tance. If the trouble is affecting the phone lines, the phone company might ask you to
disconnect your phone until you have resolved the problem.

Cautions:
REPLACING THE
BATTERY PACK
• You must use a replacement battery
pack of the same size and type, with
the proper connector.
If you follow the instructions in “Connect-
ing and Charging the Battery Pack” on
Page 13, the battery pack should last
about one year. If the battery does not
hold a charge for more than 2 hours after
an overnight charge, replace the battery
with a new 3.6 volt, 600 milliamp battery
with a connector that fits the socket in the
battery compartment. You can order a
replacement battery pack through your
local RadioShack store.
• Do not dispose of the battery pack in
a fire because it might explode.
• Do not open or mutilate the battery
pack.
• Be careful not to short the battery
pack by touching it with conducting
materials, such as rings, bracelets,
and keys. The battery pack or con-
ductor might overheat and burn.
Install the new battery pack as described
below, then charge the battery pack for
about 15 hours (see “Connecting and
Charging the Battery Pack” on Page 13).
If you have trouble replacing the battery
pack, take the phone to your local Ra-
dioShack store for assistance.
Note: To avoid losing information stored
in memory, try to install and begin charg-
ing the new battery pack within 2–3 min-
utes.
Important: This product contains a re-
chargeable nickel cadmium battery pack.
At the end of the battery pack’s useful
life, it must be recycled or disposed of
properly. Contact your local, county, or
state hazardous waste management au-
thorities for information on recycling or
disposal programs in your area. Some
options that might be available are: mu-
nicipal curb-side collection, drop-off box-
es at retailers such as your local
RadioShack store, recycling collection
centers, and mail-back programs.
1. Press down and slide off the cover.
2. Gently pull on the battery pack con-
nector to disconnect it, then remove
the battery pack.
3. Plug the new battery pack’s connec-
tor into the socket and place the bat-
tery pack into the compartment.
4. Replace the cover.

If you cannot eliminate the interference,
the FCC requires that you stop using
your phone.
THE FCC WANTS YOU TO
KNOW
In the unlikely event that your phone
causes problems on the phone line, the
phone company can temporarily discon-
tinue your service. If this happens, the
phone company attempts to notify you in
advance. If advance notice is not practi-
cal, the phone company notifies you as
soon as possible and advises you of your
right to file a complaint with the FCC.
Some cordless telephones operate on
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.
LIGHTNING
Also, the phone company can make
changes to its lines, equipment, opera-
tions, or procedures that could affect the
operation of this telephone. The tele-
phone company notifies you of these
changes in advance, so you can take the
necessary steps to prevent interruption
of your telephone service.
Your telephone has built-in lightning pro-
tection to reduce the risk of damage from
surges in telephone line and power line
current. This lightning protection meets
or exceeds FCC requirements. However,
lightning striking the telephone or power
lines can damage your telephone.
Lightning damage is not common. Nev-
ertheless, if you live an area that has se-
vere electrical storms, we suggest that
you unplug your phone during storms to
reduce the possibility of damage.
Your phone might cause TV or radio in-
terference even when it is operating
properly. To determine whether your
phone is causing the interference, turn
off your phone. If the interference goes
away, your phone is causing the interfer-
ence. Try to eliminate the interference
by:
• Moving your phone away from the
receiver
• Connecting your phone to an AC
outlet that is on a different electrical
circuit from the receiver
• Contacting your local RadioShack
store for help
