Important: Cordless phones such as
this one require AC power to operate.
When AC power is off, you cannot dial
out or receive incoming calls using
your ET-537. For this reason, the ET-
537 should not be your only telephone.
To be safe, you should also have a
phone that does not need AC power to
operate (not a cordless phone) so you
can still make and receive calls if there
is an AC power failure.
Warning: To prevent fire or shock haz-
ard, do not expose this product to rain
or moisture.
CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
!
DO NOT OPEN.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE
COVER OR BACK. NO USER-SERVICE-
ABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVIC-
ING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
This symbol is intended to alert you
to the presence of uninsulated dan-
gerous voltage within the product’s
enclosure that might be of sufficient
magnitude to constitute a risk of
electric shock. Do not open the
product’s case.
This symbol is intended to inform
you that important operating and
maintenance instructions are in-
cluded in the literature accompany-
ing this product.

INSTALLATION
FCC STATEMENT
This telephone complies with Part 68
of FCC Rules. You must, upon re-
quest, provide the FCC Registration
Number and the REN to your phone
company. These numbers are on the
bottom of the phone’s base.
We have designed your telephone to
conform to federal regulations, and
you can connect it to most telephone
lines. However, 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.
You must not connect your phone to
any of the following:
• Coin-operated systems
• Party-line systems
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 ar-
eas, a total REN of three might impair
ringer operation. If ringer operation is
impaired, disconnect one of the devic-
es from the line.
• Most electronic key phone sys-
tems
Note: Your telephone operates on
standard radio frequencies, as allocat-
ed by the FCC. Even though the ac-
cess-protection code prevents un-
authorized use of your phone line, it is
possible for other radio units operating
on similar frequencies within a certain
area to unintentionally intercept your
conversations and/or cause interfer-
ence. This lack of privacy can occur
with any cordless phone.
Note: Some cordless phones operate
at frequencies that might cause inter-
ference 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.

INSTALLATION
Important: After you select a location
for the phone (see “Selecting a Loca-
tion”), you must install the phone in the
following order before you use it for the
first time.
• Away from computers, remote
control toys, wireless intercoms,
alarms, and room monitors
The base’s location affects the phone’s
range. If you have a choice of several
locations, try each to see which pro-
vides the best performance.
1. Install the handset’s antenna (see
“Installing the Handset’s An-
tenna” on Page 7).
2. Connect the battery to the hand-
set (see “Connecting the Battery”
on Page 7).
Notes:
• If the phone line jack is not a mod-
ular jack, you must update the wir-
ing. You can do this yourself,
using jacks and adapters avail-
able at your local RadioShack
store, or you can let the phone
company update the wiring for
you.
3. Connect the base to power (see
“Connecting Power” on Page 7).
4. Charge the phone’s battery for
about 24 hours (see “Charging
the Battery” on Page 8).
5. Install the base and connect it to
your phone line (see “Installing the
Base” on Page 9).
• The phone company will charge
you for the installation of the nec-
essary jacks.
• The USOC number of the jack to
be installed is RJ11W for a wall
jack or RJ11C for a wall plate.
SELECTING A LOCATION
You can place your phone on a desk,
shelf, or table, or mount it on a wall.
Select a location that is:
• Near an AC outlet
• Near a telephone line jack
• Out of the way of normal activities
• Away from fluorescent lights, elec-
trical machinery, electrical appli-
ances, and metal walls or filing
cabinets

HANDSET’S ANTENNA
battery restraining strap to remove
it.
Insert the antenna into the hole at the
top of the handset, then rotate the an-
tenna clockwise until it is secure.
3. Connect the battery’s wires to the
battery connector inside the com-
partment, then insert the battery.
Note: The battery’s connector fits
into the connector inside the com-
partment only one way. Do not
force it.
4. Replace the battery restraining
strap and the cover.
After you connect the battery, you
must connect power, then charge the
battery.
CONNECTING THE
BATTERY
Your phone comes with a recharge-
able nickel-cadmium battery installed.
However, before you use the phone for
the first time, you must connect the
battery and charge it for about 24
hours.
CONNECTING POWER
Caution: You must use a 120V AC/9V
DC adapter that delivers at least 150
milliamps. Its plug must correctly fit the
POWER 9V DC
phone’s
jack. The sup-
plied adapter meets these require-
ments. Using an adapter that does not
meet these requirements could dam-
age the phone or the adapter.
Follow these steps to connect the bat-
tery.
1. While lifting up on the battery
compartment cover’s latch on the
back of the handset, pull the cover
up to remove it.

43-1037.fm Page 8 Tuesday, August 17, 1999 10:05 AM
1. Insert the supplied AC adapter’s
barrel plug into the POWER 9V DC
jack on the back of the base.
be sure the AC adapter is
securely connected to the base.
Also, check the charging contacts
on the handset and base. If the
contacts are dirty or tarnished,
gently clean them with a pencil
eraser.
2. Plug the adapter into a standard
AC outlet.
CHARGING THE
BATTERY
Before you connect the phone to the
phone line and use the phone for the
first time, or whenever you install a
new battery, make sure RINGER OFF/
ON on the handset is set to OFF, then
charge the battery for about 24 hours
by placing the handset on the cradle so
the CHARGE indicator on the base
lights.
• A full charge lasts about 168
hours if you leave the handset off
the base and do not make any
calls.
• About once a month, fully dis-
charge the battery. Otherwise, the
battery loses its ability to fully
recharge. To fully discharge the
battery, set RINGER OFF/ON on
the handset to ON and keep the
handset off the cradle until the
handset beeps every 7 seconds.
Then return the handset to the
cradle, set RINGER OFF/ON to
OFF, and recharge the battery for
about 10 hours.
The phone charges whenever the
handset is on the base. You can re-
charge the battery at any time, but you
must be sure to recharge it when the
handset sounds a beep every 7 sec-
onds.
• When the battery cannot fully
recharge, replace it with a new
one. For the best performance,
you should replace the supplied
battery about once a year — more
often if it is used heavily. See
Notes:
• If the CHARGE indicator on the
base does not light when you
place the handset on the cradle,

• The first time you use your phone
after installing a new battery, the
handset might not work or might
sound an error tone when you
press TALK. This might also occur
when you recharge a battery that
has been completely discharged.
Mounting the Base on
a Wall Plate
Follow these steps to mount the phone
on a standard wall plate.
1. Thread the attached modular cord
through the thick strain relief slot
under the base.
If this happens, be sure RINGER
OFF/ON is set to ON. Then return
the handset to the cradle for 5
seconds. This resets the security
access protection code.

OPERATION
CONFIRMATION TONES
CHANGING CHANNELS
When you press a button, the phone
sounds a confirmation tone to indicate
that it accepted the command. If you
are out of range or there is too much in-
terference, the phone sounds an error
tone. Move the handset closer to the
base and try again.
To reduce interference and get the
clearest communications between the
base and handset, the phone automati-
cally selects a clear channel for a call at
the beginning of the call. The phone
uses one of 25 channels when you hear
a dial tone or during a call.
MAKING/RECEIVING A
CALL
However, you can manually change
the channel the phone is using during
a call. When you press CHAN, the
phone changes to another channel
and uses that one.
Note: If the handset is too far from the
base, the phone might not change
channels. Move closer to the base and
try again.
To make a call, lift the handset from
the base. If you do not hear a dial tone,
press TALK. When you hear a dial
tone, dial the phone number.
USING REDIAL
To answer a call, lift the handset from
the base. If you do not hear the caller,
press TALK.
TALK
Note: If you accidentally press
within 2-3 seconds after answering a
call, the phone ignores your command.
After 2-3 seconds, pressing TALK dis-
connects the call.
To redial the last number dialed, press
REDIAL on the handset when you hear
a dial tone. The phone automatically
dials the last number dialed.
When you are finished with the call, ei-
ther press TALK or return the handset
to the base to hang up.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your RadioShack ET-537 25-Channel Cordless Telephone with 9-Number Memory
is an example of superior 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 cir-
cuit 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
CLEANER
new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong deter-
gents to clean your phone.
Modifying or tampering with the phone’s internal components can cause a malfunc-
tion 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 assistance. If the trouble is affecting the phone lines, the phone company might
ask you to disconnect your phone until you have resolved the problem.

6. Replace the restraining strap and
the cover.
REPLACING THE
BATTERY
Caution: Your telephone contains a
rechargeable nickel cadmium battery.
At the end of the battery’s useful life, it
must be recycled or disposed of prop-
erly. Contact your local, county, or
state hazardous waste management
authorities for information on recycling
or disposal programs in your area.
Some options that might be available
are: municipal curb-side collection,
drop off boxes at retailers, recycling
collection centers, and mail back pro-
grams.
If you follow the instructions in “Charg-
ing the Battery” on Page 8, the sup-
plied battery should last about one
year. When the battery loses its ability
to fully charge, you should replace it
with a new one (available at your local
RadioShack store).
Install the new battery as described
below, then charge the battery (see
“Charging the Battery” on Page 8).
1. While lifting up on the battery
compartment cover’s latch on the
back of the handset, pull the cover
up to remove it.
THE FCC WANTS YOU
TO KNOW
In the unlikely event that your phone
causes problems on the phone line,
the phone company can temporarily
discontinue your service. The phone
company normally attempts to notify
you in advance. If advance notice is

Your phone might cause TV or radio
interference even when it is operating
properly. To determine whether your
phone is causing the interference, turn
off and unplug your phone and discon-
nect the handset battery. If the interfer-

causing the interference.
LIGHTNING

Nevertheless, if you live in an area that
has severe electrical storms, we sug-
gest that you unplug your phone during
storms to reduce the possibility of
damage.
• Moving your phone away from the
receiver
• Connecting your phone to an AC
outlet that is on a different electri-
cal circuit from the receiver

using your phone.
