Information about Caller ID with Call Waiting
This product has a Caller ID with Call Waiting feature that works with
service from your local phone service provider.

You may need to change your phone service to use this
feature. Contact your telephone service provider if:
• You have both Caller ID and CallWaiting, but as separate services
(you may need combined service).
• You have only Caller ID service, or only CallWaiting service.
• You don’t subscribe to any Caller ID or CallWaiting services.
You can use this product with regular Caller ID service, and you can use
this product’s other features without subscribing to either Caller ID or
combined Caller ID with Call Waiting service.
There are fees for Caller ID services, and they may not be available in
all areas.
Depending on your service, you may see the caller’s number, or the caller’s name and
number. This product can provide information only if both you and the caller are in areas
offering Caller ID service, and if both telephone companies use compatible equipment.
The time and date are sent by the service provider along with the call information.

About Caller Identification
Telephone operating range
Caller ID with CallWaiting features in
this telephone let you see who’s call-
ing before you answer the phone, even
when you’re on another call.These
features require services provided by
your local telephone company.
This cordless telephone operates with
the maximum power allowed by the
Federal Communications Commission
(FCC). Even so, the handset(s) and
base can communicate over only a
certain distance — which can vary
with the locations of the base and
handset(s), the weather, and the con-
struction of your home or office.
Contact your telephone service pro-
vider if:
• You have both Caller ID and Call
Waiting, but as separate services
(you may need combined service).
If you receive a call while you are
out of range, the handset might not
ring — or if it does ring, the call might
not connect when you press PHONE.
Move closer to the base, then press
PHONE to answer the call.
• You have only Caller ID service, or
only CallWaiting service.
• You don’t subscribe to any Caller
ID or CallWaiting services.
If you move out of range during a
telephone conversation, you might
hear noise or interference.To improve
reception, move closer to the base.
You can use this telephone with regu-
lar Caller ID service, and you can use
its other features without subscribing
to either Caller ID or combined Caller
ID with CallWaiting service.There may
be fees for these services, and they
may not be available in all areas.
If you move out of range without
pressing OFF, your telephone will be
left “off the hook”. To hang up properly,
walk back toward the telephone base,
periodically pressing OFFꢀuntil the call
is disconnected.
Caller ID features will work only if
both you and the caller are in areas
offering Caller ID service, and if both
telephone companies use compatible
equipment.
See Caller ID Operation, beginning on
page 27, for more details about how
these features work.

Important Safety Instructions
Especially About CordlessTelephones
• Privacy:The same features that make a cordless phone convenient create some
limitations.Telephone calls are transmitted between the base and the handset by
radio waves, so there is a possibility that your cordless phone conversations could
be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless handset.
For this reason, you should not think of cordless phone conversations as
being as private as those on corded phones.
• Electrical Power:The base unit of this cordless telephone must be connected
to a working electrical outlet.The electrical outlet should not be controlled by
a wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the handset if the base unit is
unplugged or switched off, or if the electrical power is interrupted.
• PotentialTV Interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that
may cause interference toTVs andVCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference,
do not place the base unit of the cordless telephone near or on top of aTV orVCR.
If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the
TV orVCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.
• Rechargeable Batteries:This product contains either Nickel-Cadmium or
Nickel-Metal Hydride rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in
order not to short the battery with conducting material such as rings, bracelets,
and keys.The battery or conductor may overheat and cause harm. Observe proper
polarity between the battery and the battery charger.
• Nickel-Cadmium Rechargeable Batteries: Must be recycled or disposed of
properly. Do not dispose of in household garbage. Do not burn or puncture. Like
other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic mate-
rial which could cause injury.
™
The RBRC Seal means that the manufacturer is voluntarily participating in an industry program to collect
and recycle Nickel-Cadmium rechargeable batteries when taken out of service within the United States.
These batteries may be taken to a participating local retailer of replacement batteries or recycling center. Or you may call
1 800 8BATTERY for locations accepting spent Nickel-Cadmium Batteries. Nickel-Metal Hydride Rechargeable
Batteries: Dispose of these batteries in a safe manner. Do not burn or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned
or punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury.
• Nickel-Metal Hydride Rechargeable Batteries: Dispose of these batteries in a
safe manner. Do not burn or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or
punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury.

Precautions for Users of Implanted Cardiac Pacemakers
Cardiac Pacemakers (applies only to 900 MHz Digital CordlessTelephones):
WirelessTechnology Research, LLC (WTR), an independent research entity, led a mul-
tidisciplinary evaluation of the interference between portable wireless telephones and
implanted cardiac pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration,
WTR had recommended to physicians that:
Pacemaker Patients
• Should keep wireless phones at least six inches from the pacemaker.
• Should NOT place wireless phones directly over the pacemaker, such as in a breast
pocket, when it is turned ON.
• Should use the wireless phone at the ear opposite the pacemaker.
WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from other
persons using wireless phones.
