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 us-  
ing your ET-542. For this reason, the  
ET-542 cordless phone 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  
hazard, 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 telephone has been tested and  
found to comply with all applicable UL  
and FCC standards.  
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.  
Your ET-542 operates on standard ra-  
dio frequencies, as allocated by the  
FCC. Therefore, it is possible for other  
radio units operating on similar fre-  
quencies, within a certain area, to in-  
advertently intercept your conversa-  
tions and/or cause interference on  
your cordless telephone. This lack of  
privacy can occur with any cordless  
telephone.  
This symbol is intended to inform  
you that important operating and  
maintenance instructions are in-  
cluded in the literature accompany-  
ing this product.  
!
For your records, we urge you to  
record the serial number of your  
phone in the space below. The serial  
number is on the bottom panel of the  
base.

READ THIS BEFORE  
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 located  
on the bottom of your 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 pow-  
er from the phone line. We refer to this  
power draw as the device’s ringer  
equivalence number, or REN. The  
REN is shown on the bottom of your  
phone’s base.  
Note: 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, remove a device from the  
line.  
• Most electronic key phone sys-  
tems

does not light when you place the  
handset on the base, be sure the  
battery is connected to the socket  
inside the battery compartment  
and the AC adapter is securely  
connected to the base.  
After you install a new battery, place  
the handset on the base and let the  
battery charge for about 15 hours be-  
fore you use it the first time. The IN  
USE/CHARGE indicator lights.  
Also, be sure the handset is  
placed properly on the base, so  
the charging contacts on the  
handset and base meet.  
If the contacts are dirty or tar-  
nished, gently clean them with a  
pencil eraser.  
The phone recharges whenever the  
handset is on the base. You can re-  
charge the battery at any time, but you  
must be sure to recharge the battery

your phone is connected to one of  
these systems, you might want to en-  
ter a pause after the access code  
when you store a phone number in  
memory.  
2. Wait for the service to answer.  
Note: If you use pulse dialing to  
dial the service, be sure you have  
stored a tone entry (TONE/ ) in  
the next memory location before  
the numbers for the additional  
information.  
At the appropriate place in the num-  
ber, press REDIAL/PAUSE to enter a 2-  
second pause. For a longer pause,  
press REDIAL/PAUSE again.  
3. Press MEMORY and the memory  
location numbers for the addi-  
tional information.  
4. To disconnect the call, press TALK  
so the TALK light turns off, or sim-  
ply replace the handset on the  
base.

rect memory location number. The  
phone dials the stored number.  
If you store an emergency service’s  
number (police department, fire de-  
partment, ambulance) and you want to  
test the stored number, make the test  
call during the late evening or early  
morning hours to avoid peak demand  
periods. Remain on the line to explain  
the reason for your call.  
Storing/Chain Dialing Service  
Numbers  
When storing numbers for special ser-  
vices (such as alternate long distance  
or bank-by-phone), store the service’s  
main phone number in one memory  
location and numbers for additional in-  
formation in others.

TROUBLESHOOTING  
We do not expect you to have any  
problems with your telephone, but if  
you do, the following suggestions  
might help. If you still have problems,  
check other phones on the same line  
to see if they work properly. If they do  
and the problem does not seem to be

ference sources such as comput-  
ers, remote control toys, wireless  
microphones, wireless alarm sys-  
tems, wireless intercoms and  
room monitors, fluorescent lights,  
and electrical appliances. If the  
interference is severe, turn off the  
interfering device.  
Problem: The handset does not  
work.  
Solutions:  
• Move the handset closer to the  
base.  
• Place the base’s antenna in a ver-  
tical position.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
Your ET-542 All-Weather 25-Channel Cordless Telephone is an example of superi-  
or design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for your  
phone so you can enjoy it for years.  
Keep the base dry. If the handset gets wet, wipe it dry as soon as you  
can. 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.

REPLACING THE  
BATTERY  
If you follow the instructions in “Charg-  
ing the Battery,” the supplied battery  
should last about a year. When the  
battery loses its ability to fully charge,  
order a 3.6-volt, 300-mAH battery with  
a connector that fits the socket in the  
battery compartment. You can order a  
replacement battery through your lo-  
cal RadioShack store.  
Note: The connector fits only one  
way. Do not force it.  
4. Align the screw hole on the bat-  
tery compartment cover with the  
screw hole inside the battery com-  
partment.  
Install the new battery as described  
below, then charge the battery (see  
“Charging the Battery”).  
1. Use a screwdriver to remove the  
screw on the battery compartment  
cover on the back of the handset,  
then press down on the cover and  
slide it off.  
5. Tighten the screw about halfway.  
Then press down and slide the  
cover up to lock it in place.  
2. Gently pull on the battery connec-  
tor to disconnect it, then remove  
the battery.  
3. Plug the battery wire connector  
into the socket inside the compart-  
ment, and place the battery inside  
the compartment.  
6. Fully tighten the screw to ensure  
the best water seal.

Important: 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

properly. To determine whether your  
phone is causing the interference, turn  
off your phone. If the interference  
goes away, your phone is causing the  
interference. Try to eliminate the inter-  
ference by:  
• 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  
• Contacting a radio/TV technician  
or your local RadioShack store for  
help  
THE FCC WANTS YOU  
TO KNOW  
If you cannot eliminate the interfer-  
ence, the FCC requires that you stop  
using your phone.  
In the unlikely event that your phone  
causes problems on the phone line,  
the phone company can temporarily  
discontinue your service. If this hap-  
pens, the phone company attempts to  
notify you in advance. If advance no-  
tice is not practical, the phone compa-  
ny notifies you as soon as possible  
and advises you of your right to file a  
complaint with the FCC.  
LIGHTNING  
Your phone has built-in protection cir-  
cuits to reduce the risk of damage  
from surges in phone line current.  
These protection circuits meet or ex-  
ceed FCC requirements. However,  
lightning striking the phone lines can  
damage your phone.  
Also, the phone company can make  
changes to its lines, equipment, oper-  
ations, or procedures that could affect  
the operation of the phone. The phone  
company notifies you of these chang-  
es in advance, so you can take the  
necessary steps to prevent interrup-  
tion of your phone service.  
Lighting damage is not common. Nev-  
ertheless, if you live an area that has  
severe electrical storms, we suggest  
that you unplug your phone during  
storms to reduce the possibility of  
damage.  
Your phone might cause TV or radio  
interference even when it is operating
