Headset Operation
Your ip 5850 Handset is equipped with a 2.5mm Headset Jack for use with an
optional accessory Headset for hands-free operation. If you choose to use the
Headset option, you must obtain an optional accessory Headset, which is com-
patible with the ip 5850. For best results use a VTech 2.5 mm headset.
To purchase a Headset, call VTech Customer Service at 1-800-595-9511.
Once you have a compatible 2.5mm Headset, locate the Headset Jack on
the ip 5850 Handset. Connect the plug on the Headset cord to the jack (under a
small rubber flap) on the cordless Handset. The plug should fit securely. Do not
force the connection.
NOTE:
•
Whenever a compatible Headset
is connected to the cordless
Handset, the microphone on the
Handset will be muted. This is
done to limit the effect of
background noise.
•
When a compatible Headset is
connected to the cordless
Handset, your Speakerphone
feature will be disabled. To use
your Speakerphone feature,
simply disconnect the Headset
from the Handset.
Belt Clip
The ip 5850 is also equipped with a
detachable belt clip. Align the pins
on the inside edge of the clip with
the notches on the sides of the
Handset. The belt clip should snap
securely into place. Do not force the
connection.

The Phone Doesn’tWork At All
•
•
Make sure the Power Cord is plugged in.
Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the Base Unit and the
telephone wall jack.
•
Make sure the battery cells are properly charged. If you get a‘LOW BATTERY’
message or indication, the battery cells need charging.
No DialTone
•
First check all the suggestions above.
•
If you still don’t hear a dial tone, disconnect the Base Unit from the telephone
jack and connect a different phone. If there is no dial tone on that phone either,
the problem is in your wiring or local service. Contact your local telephone
company.
You Get Noise, Static, Or AWeak Signal EvenWhenYou are NearThe
Base Unit
• Household appliances plugged into the same circuit as the Base Unit can
sometimes cause interference. Try to move the appliance or the Base Unit to
another outlet.
You Get Noise, Static, Or AWeak SignalWhenYou are Away FromThe
Base Unit
•
You may be out of range. Either move closer to the Base, or relocate the Base
Unit.

•
You may be too far from the Base Unit.
You may have too many extension phones on your telephone line to allow all
of them to ring. Try to unplug some of the other phones.
You Hear Other CallsWhile UsingYour Phone
• Disconnect your Base Unit from the telephone jack, and plug in a regular
telephone. If you still hear other calls, the problem is probably in your wiring
or local service. Call your local telephone company.

Maintenance
Taking care of your telephone
Your cordless telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts, so it must be
treated with care.
Avoid rough treatment
Place the Handset down gently. Save the original packing materials to protect
your telephone if you ever need to ship it.
Avoid water
Your telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not use the Handset outdoors
in the rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not install your Base Unit near a sink,
bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic
equipment. For your own safety, use caution when using electric appliances
during storms.
Cleaning your telephone
Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for many
years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild soap.
Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used
when you are wet or standing in water. If your Base Unit should fall into
water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTILYOU UNPLUGTHE POWER CORD
AND TELEPHONE LINE CORDS FROM THE WALL. Then pull the unit
out by the unplugged cords.

FCC Part 15
Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
The equipment has been tested and found to comply with part 15 of the FCC rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try and correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet or on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
To ensure safety of users, the FCC has established criteria for the amount of radio

the intended usage of the product. This product has been tested and found to
comply with the FCC criteria. The handset has such a low power that it does not
require testing. It may be safely held against the ear of the user.The base unit shall

2001, it complies with Part 68 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
rules. If the equipment was approved after that date, it complies with the Part 68 rules
and with Technical Requirements for Connection of Equipment to the Telephone
Network adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments (ACTA). We
are required to provide you with the following information.
1. Product identifier and REN information
The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among other things,

equipment approved after that date, the product identifier is preceded by “US”
and a colon (:), and the REN is encoded in the product identifier without a
decimal point as the sixth and seventh characters following the colon. For
example, the product identifier US:AAAEQ03T123XYZ would indicate an REN
of 0.3. The REN is used to determine how many devices you may connect to
your telephone line and still have them ring when you are called. In most, but not
all areas, the sum of all RENs should be five (5.0) or less. You may want to
contact your local telephone company for more information.
2. Connection and use with the nationwide telephone network

Telephone Lines or with Party Lines. If you have specially wired alarm dialing
equipment connected to your telephone line, ensure the connection of this
equipment does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about
