READ THIS BEFORE
INSTALLATION
THE FCC WANTS YOU TO
KNOW
We have designed your system to conform
to federal regulations, and you can connect it
to most telephone lines. However, each tele-
phone (and each device, such as an answer-
ing machine) that you connect to the
telephone line draws power from the tele-
phone line. We refer to this power draw as
the device's ringer equivalence number, or
REN. The REN is on the bottom of your sys-
tem.
In the unlikely event that your telephone
causes problems on the telephone line, the
telephone company can disconnect your ser-
vice. The telephone company attempts to no-
tify you in advance. If advance notice is not
practical, the telephone company notifies
you as soon as possible and advises you of
your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
Also, the telephone company can make
change to its lines, equipment, operations, or
procedures that could affect the operation of
this telephone. The telephone company noti-
fies you of these changes in advance, so that
you can take the necessary steps to prevent
interruption of your telephone service.
If you use more than one telephone or other
device on the line, add up all of the RENs. If
the total is more than five, your telephones
might not ring. In rural areas, a total REN of
three might impair ringer operation. If ringer
operation is impaired, remove a device from
the line.
This equipment is capable of providing users
access to interstate providers of operator
services through the use of access codes.
Modification of this equipment by call aggre-
gators to block access dialing codes is a vio-
lation of the Telephone Operator Consumers
Act of 1990.
Warning:
To prevent fire or shock hazard,
do not expose this product to rain or mois-
ture.
FCC STATEMENT
Your phone might cause TV or radio interfer-
ence even when it is operating properly. To
determine whether your phone is causing the
interference, turn off your phone. If the inter-
ference goes away, your phone is causing it.
Try to eliminate the interference by:
Your system complies with Part 68 of FCC
Rules. You must, upon request, provide the
FCC (Federal Communication Commission)
registration number and the REN to your
telephone company. These numbers are lo-
cated on the bottom of the telephone's base.
• moving your phone away from the
receiver
Note:
to:
You must not connect your telephone
• connecting your phone to an AC outlet
that is on a different electrical circuit
from the receiver
• coin-operated systems
• party-line systems
• contacting your local RadioShack store
for help
• most electronic key telephone systems
If you cannot eliminate the interference, the
FCC requires that you stop using your
phone.

cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a
damp cloth for cleaning.
LIGHTNING
Your telephone has built-in protection circuits
to reduce the risk of damage from surges in
telephone and power line current. These pro-
tection circuits meet or exceed the FCC re-
quirements. However, lightning striking the
telephone or power lines can damage your
telephone.
9. Do not use the telephone near water, for
example, near a bath tub, wash bowl,
kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet
basement, or near a swimming pool.
10. Do not place the telephone on an unsta-
ble cart, stand, or table. The telephone
may fall, causing serious damage to the
product.
Lightning damage is not common. Neverthe-
less, if you live in an area that has frequent
electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug
your telephone when storms approach to re-
duce the possibility of damage.
11. Slots and openings in the cabinet and
the back or bottom are provided for ven-
tilation. To protect it from overheating,
these openings must not be blocked or
covered. The openings should never be
blocked by placing the product on a bed,
sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This
telephone should never be placed near
or over a radiator or heat register. This
telephone should not be placed in a
built-in installation unless proper ventila-
tion is provided.

ˆ Installation
Installing your phone is easy, but it is impor-
tant that you follow the instructions in the se-
quence that they appear in this manual for
the telephone to work properly.
the single-line jack to be installed is
RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall plate).
Before actually starting the connections, plan
your system accordingly.
PLANNING YOUR SYSTEM
1. Identify the number of stations you need
(maximum is 12).
To take full advantage of many of the sys-
tem’s features, you must have four telephone
lines with separate phone numbers. Howev-
er, you can choose to connect the system to
only one, two, or three telephone lines.
2. Determine which outside lines connect
to which stations (maximum 4 per sta-
tion).
3. Decide which stations require a private
line (see “Setting the Private Line” on
Page 16).
You can connect the system to two-line mod-
ular telephone line jacks, or you can connect
it to single-line jacks. If you use single line
jacks, you must also use an optional two-line
coupler available at your local RadioShack
store.
SYSTEM COMMUNICATION
The system uses Line 1 to transmit informa-
tion such as system and line use status, as
well as up to two simultaneous intercom con-
versations.
Notes:
• Your system is for tone lines only. If your
telephone service is pulse type, check
with your telephone company about
changing to tone service.
Lines 1 and 2 must be common to all sta-
tions. Lines 3 and 4 can be common to all or
some of the stations.
• Your system connects directly to a mod-
ular telephone line jack. If your tele-
phone wiring does not have a modular
jack, you can update it yourself using
jacks and adapters available at your
local RadioShack store, or have the tele-
phone company update the wiring for
you.
Note:
If Line 1 is disconnected, you can still
make and receive phone calls on the other
lines, but the phones will not work as a sys-
tem.
Square Configuration
When all lines are all common, the configura-
tion is called square. Since all lines are com-
mon, calls on any line can be transferred to
any station.
• The line that connects the telephone
jacks to the telephone company's wiring
must be twisted-pair cable. Otherwise,
you might experience interference
(crosstalk) between telephone lines.
Non-Square Configuration —
Private Line Support
• The USOC number of the two-line jack
to be installed is RJ14C (or RJ14W for a
wall plate jack). The USOC number of
When all lines are not common, the configu-
ration is called non-square. Depending on

which line is connected to which station, you
can transfer calls on some lines to some sta-
tions.
MOUNTING THE SYSTEM
You can place your phone on a desk, or
mount it on a standard wall plate or directly
on a wall. Select a location that is near a
modular telephone line jack and an AC out-
let.
The following chart shows a sample non-
square configuration. In this configuration,
lines 1 and 2 are common to all stations, and
lines 3 and 4 are available to groups of sta-
tions. Station 11 is the Auto Attendant. Since
all lines are available at the Auto Attendant
station, the Auto Attendant can answer all
lines.
On a Desk
1. Remove the mounting bracket by pulling
it down.
Calls to Lines 1 and 2 can be transferred to
all stations.
2. Plug one end of one of the supplied 2-
line modular telephone line cords into
LINE 1&2
on the bottom of the telephone.
Calls on Line 3 can be transferred to all sta-
tions except stations 14 and 15.
Telephone Cord
AC
Calls on Line 4 can only be transferred to the
stations that have Line 4 (stations 11, 16,
and 17 in the sample below). If you want to
build a non-square configuration, we suggest
you make a planning chart similar to the one
shown for easier connection.

Battery Power Levels
INSTALLING THE BACKUP
BATTERIES
When the batteries have enough power (over
5.6V), no icons appear.
Your system requires four AA batteries to
provide backup power for a few hours if AC
power fails. The backup batteries do not
power all the system's features. For the best
performance and longest life, we recom-
mend RadioShack alkaline batteries.
When the batteries become weak (5 to
5.6V),
appears.
When the batteries are too weak (less than
5V) or not installed, appears.
If the power fails but the backup batteries are
installed and have power, all data and sys-
tem information is retained and network com-
munication is restored.
CONNECTING THE AC
ADAPTER
Cautions:
Cautions:
The supplied AC adapter sup-
plies at least 11 volts AC and
delivers at least 600 mA.
• Use only fresh batteries of the required
size and recommended type.
!
Using an adapter that does not meet
these specifications could damage the
telephone or the adapter.
• Before replacing the batteries, discon-
nect all telephone lines from your sys-
tem.
• To prevent damage to the telephone or
the adapter, plug the adapter into the
telephone before plugging the adapter
into an AC outlet.
• Do not use rechargeable batteries.
1. Turn the unit over, press the tab on the
battery compartment cover, then lift off
the cover.
1. Insert the AC adapter's barrel plug into
the adapter jack on the bottom of the
telephone.
2. Place the batteries in the compartment
over the ribbon as indicated by the
polarity symbols (+ and –) marked
inside.
2. Route the adapter's cord through the
groove on the bottom of the phone, then
plug the adapter into a standard AC out-
let.
3. Replace the cover.
Warning:
Dispose of old batteries promptly
and properly. Do not burn or bury them.
ATTACHING THE HANDSET
Plug one end of the supplied coiled cord into
the jack on the telephone's handset. Plug the
other end into the jack with the handset mark
on the left side of the telephone's base.
Cautions:
Always remove old or weak bat-
teries. Batteries can leak chemicals that can
destroy electronic parts.
Note:

PROGRAMMING CALLER ID
There are four operations you must perform
to program your Caller ID.
Setting the Area Code — To quickly dial a
number from a Caller ID record (see “Dialing
Numbers From a Caller ID Record” on
Page 26) or to correctly store a number from
a record into a memory dialing location (see
“Storing a Caller ID Record in Memory” on
Page 27), you must store your local area
code in the memory. Then, when you dial
from a Caller ID record, the system skips the
area code if it matches the one you stored.
The system is preset to no area code.
Turning Caller ID/Call Waiting On/Off — if
you subscribe to Call Waiting with Caller ID
service, you can set the phone to show Call-
er ID information for an incoming call even
while you are using the phone.
Selecting the Save Method for Received

three ways to store caller ID records:

CARE
Keep the phone dry; if it gets wet, wipe it dry
immediately. Use and store the phone only in
normal temperature environments. Handle
the phone carefully; do not drop it. Keep the
phone away from dust and dirt, and wipe it
with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it
looking new.
Modifying or tampering with the phone’s in-
ternal components can cause a malfunction
and 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 telephone lines, the
phone company can ask you to disconnect
your phone until you have resolved the prob-
lem.

maintenance, alteration, lightning or other incidence of excess voltage or current; (b) any repairs
other than those provided by a RadioShack Authorized Service Facility; (c) consumables such as
