Information about Caller ID with Call Waiting

This product has a Caller ID with Call Waiting feature that

works with services from your local telephone service pro-

vider.

Caller ID with Call Waiting lets you see the name of the

caller before you answer the telephone, even when you’re

on another call.

You may need to change your phone service to use

this feature. Contact your telephone service provider if:

• you have both Caller ID and Call Waiting, but as separate

services (you may need combined service).

• you have only Caller ID service, or only Call Waiting ser-

vice.

• you don’t subscribe to any Caller ID or Call Waiting ser-

vices.

You can use this product with regular Caller ID service, or

you can use this product’s other features without subscrib-

ing to either Caller ID or combined Caller ID with Call

Waiting service.

There are fees for Caller ID services, but these may not be

available in all areas.

Depending on your service subscription, you may see the caller’s num-

ber, or the caller’s name and number. This product can provide infor-

mation 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

(CID)

Telephone operating range

This cordless telephone operates

with the maximum power allowed

by the Federal Communications

Commission (FCC). Even so, this

handset and telephone base can

communicate over only a certain

distance — which can vary with

the locations of the telephone

base and handset, the weather, and

the layout of your home or office.

The Caller ID with Call Waiting

features in this telephone let

you see who’s calling before you

answer the phone, even when

you’re on another call. These fea-

tures require services provided by

your local telephone company.

Contact your telephone service

provider if:

If there is a call while the

handset is out of range, it might

not ring — or if it does ring, the

call might not connect well when

you press /PHONE/FLASH. Move

closer to the telephone base, then

press /PHONE/FLASH to answer

the call.

• you have both Caller ID and

Call Waiting, but as separate

services (you may need com-

bined service),

• you have only Caller ID service,

or only Call Waiting service, or

• you do not subscribe to any

Caller ID or Call Waiting ser-

vices but wish to try them now.

If the handset moves out of

range during a telephone con-

versation, there might be interfer-

ence. To improve reception, move

closer to the base.

You can use this telephone with

regular Caller ID service, and you

can use its other features without

subscribing to either Caller ID

or combined Caller ID with Call

Waiting service. There may be fees

for these services, and these ser-

vices may not be available in all

areas.

If you move out of range with-

out pressing

/OFF/CANCEL, the

telephone will be disconnected

after five seconds.

The 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.

Getting Started

Telephone base installation

Install the telephone base as shown below. Choose a central location within

the home, away from any electronic equipment and appliances such as person-

al computers, computer routers, television sets, microwave ovens, and refrig-

erators. Avoid excessive heat, cold, dust or moisture.

Plug power adapter into an

electrical outlet not con-

trolled by a wall switch.

Plug the telephone

line cord into a

telephone jack.

NOTE: Use only the power adapter supplied with this product. If you need a replacement,

call 1 (800) 222-3111. In Canada, call 1 (866) 288-4268. Be sure to use an electrical outlet not

controlled by a wall switch.

Getting Started

Battery installation & charging

After installation, place the handset in the telephone base and allow the bat-

tery to charge for sixteen hours before use. You can keep battery charged by

returning the handset to the telephone base after each use. When the battery

power is fully depleted, a full recharge takes about sixteen hours.

Low battery indicator

Return handset to telephone base to

recharge when this symbol flashes.

(Handset will beep when battery is low.)

Caution: Use only supplied

Place handset in telephone base

to charge for at least sixteen hours

before first use.

NOTE: When fully charged, the

battery in the handset can pro-

vide 5 hours of talk time or 3 days of

standby time (when idle and away from

the telephone base).

NOTE: For installation of the

spare battery into the spare bat-

tery compartment on the telephone

Getting Started

Wall mounting

The telephone base can be installed on any standard telephone outlet as

shown below. Choose a central location within the home, away from any elec-

tronic equipment such as personal computers, computer routers, television

sets or microwave ovens. Avoid excessive heat, cold, dust or moisture.

1) Connect telephone line cord and AC

power cord to telephone jacks and wall

jacks, as shown on page 7.

2) Install wall mount bracket onto set.

(a) First put the two front wall-mount

bracket tabs into the front notches

on the bottom of the telephone base.

(b) Squeeze the rear tabs of the wall

mount bracket when inserting them into

the rear notches on the bottom of the

telephone base.

Plug the power adapter

into an electrical outlet not

controlled by a switch.

3) Position the wall-

mount bracket over the

wall outlet mounting

pegs, then press and

slide the wall-mount

bracket down firmly so it

is held securely on the

outlet mounting pegs.

Plug telephone line

cord into telephone

wall jack.

Getting Started

Belt clip & optional headset

Install belt clip as shown below if desired.

Snap the belt clip into the notches on

the side of the handset. Rotate and pull

to remove.

For hands-free telephone

conversations, use any

industry standard 2.5 mm

headset (purchased sepa-

rately). For best result, use

an AT&T 2.5 mm headset.

Plug the 2.5 mm head-

set into the jack on the

side of the handset

(beneath the small rub-

ber cap).

Appendix

Important safety information

Especially about cordless telephones

• Privacy:The same features that make a cordless telephone convenient create

some limitations.Telephone calls are transmitted between the telephone base and

the handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that your cordless telephone

conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of

the cordless handset. For this reason, you should not think of cordless tele-

phone conversations as being as private as those on corded telephones.

• Electrical power:The telephone base of this cordless telephone must be con-

nected to a working electrical outlet which is not controlled by a wall switch. Calls

cannot be made from the handset if the telephone base 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 telephone base of the cordless telephone near or on top of aTV

orVCR. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away

from theTV 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 create a short circuit with conductive 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 them in household garbage. Do not burn or puncture.

Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic

material 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 1-800-8-BATTERY for locations accepting spent nickel-cadmium

batteries.

Precautions for users of implanted cardiac pacemakers

Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital cordless telephones):

Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR), an independent research entity,

led a multidisciplinary evaluation of the interference between portable wire-

less telephones and implanted cardiac pacemakers. Supported by the U.S.

Food and Drug Administration, WTR recommends to physicians that:

PACEMAKER PATIENTS

• Should keep wireless telephones at least six inches from the pacemaker.

• Should NOT place wireless telephones directly over the pacemaker, such as

in a breast pocket, when it is turned ON.

• Should use the wireless telephone at the ear opposite the pacemaker.

WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from

other persons using wireless telephones.

Especially about telephones answering systems
