Battery Safety
CAUTION:
Danger of explosion if BATTERY PACK is incorrectly replaced. Replace only
with the same or equivalent type. To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury,
read and follow these instructions:
1. Use only the following type and size of BATTERY PACK:

PACK is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. Electrolyte may be toxic
if swallowed.
4. Exercise care in handling the BATTERY PACK to prevent shorting the BATTERY PACK
with conductive materials such as rings, bracelets and keys. The BATTERY PACK or
conductor may overheat and cause burns.
5. Charge the BATTERY PACK provided with (or identified for use with) this telephone only
in accordance with the instructions and limitations specified in this manual.

Technical Information
Technical Information
This cordless telephone uses radio frequencies to allow mobility. There are certain
difficulties in using radio frequencies with a cordless telephone. While these are
normal, the following could affect the operation of your system.
Noise
Electrical pulse noise is present in most homes at one time or another. This noise is
most intense during electrical storms. Certain kinds of electrical equipment such as
light dimmers, fluorescent bulbs, motors, and fans also generate noise pulses.
Because radio frequencies are susceptible to these noise pulses, you may
occasionally hear them in your HANDSET. Generally they are a minor annoyance
and should not be interpreted as a defect in your system.
Range
Because radio frequency is used, the location of the BASE UNIT can affect the
operating range. Try several locations in your home or office and pick the one that
gives you the clearest signal to the HANDSET.
Interference
Electronic circuits activate a relay to connect the cordless telephone to your
telephone line. These electronic circuits operate in the radio frequency spectrum.
While several protection circuits are used to prevent unwanted signals, there may be
periods when these unwanted signals enter the BASE UNIT. You may hear clicks or
hear the relay activate while you are not using the HANDSET. If the interference
occurs frequently, it can be minimized or eliminated by relocating the BASE UNIT.
You can check for interference before selecting the final BASE UNIT location by
plugging in the telephone.
NOTICE:
This cordless telephone uses radio communication between the HANDSET and the
BASE UNIT and may not ensure privacy of communication. Other devices, including
other cordless telephones, may interfere with the operation of this cordless telephone
or cause noise during operation. Units not containing coded access may be
accessed by other radio communication systems. Cordless telephones must not
cause interference to any licensed radio service.
34

telephone company.
3. The REN is also useful in determining the quantity of devices that you may
connect to your telephone line and still allow these devices to ring when
your telephone number is called. In most areas, but not all, the sum of the
RENs for all devices connected to one line should not exceed five (5.0). To
be certain of the number of devices that you may connect to your line, you
should contact your local telephone company.
4. If your telephone causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone
company may temporarily disconnect your service. If possible, they will
notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be
required. However, when advanced written notice is not possible, the
telephone company may temporarily discontinue service without notice if
such action is necessary under the circumstances.

FCC Requirements
RINGER EQUIVALENCE NUMBER
NOTICE: The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) assigned to each terminal device
provides an indication of the maximum number of terminals allowed to be connected
to a telephone interface. The termination on an interface may consist of any
combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the ringer
equivalence numbers at all devices does not exceed 5.
CAUTION:
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact
the appropriate electric inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
36
FCC Requirements
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B
digital device, pursuant to 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 to correct
the interference by one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving ANTENNA.
2. Increase the distance between the equipment and the receiver.
3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved in writing by
the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
may void
Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby
TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless
phone should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is
experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often
reduce or eliminate the interference.
If trouble is experienced with this equipment, for repair or warranty information, please
contact service center at the below. If the equipment is causing harm to the telephone
network, the telephone company may request that you disconnect the equipment until the
problem is resolved.
