User’s Guide
Because it is necessary to charge the handset
for 12 hours prior to connecting the phone for
use the first time, it is better to leave the unit
on a flat surface during initial charge before
attempting to hang it on the wall.
Use the MUTE button to interrupt a phone conversation to talk privately with someone
else in the room.
Use the RE/PA button to insert a pause when a delay is needed in the dialing sequence
(for example, when you must dial a 9 to get an outside line or when you must enter
codes to access your bank’s information line). Each pause counts toward the 20-digit
limit.
• Do not burn, disassemble, mutilate, or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, toxic
materials could be released which can cause injury.
BAT LOW indicator

• Place handset in base for 10 seconds to
reset the phone. If that doesn’t work,
charge battery for 12 hours.
Your 900 MHz Cordless Telephone is designed to give you flexibility in use and high
quality performance. To get the most from your new cordless telephone, we suggest
that you take a few minutes right now to read through this instruction manual.

You need an RJ11 (CA11A) type modular jack, which is the most common type
of phone jack and might look like the one pictured here. If you don’t have a
modular jack, call your local phone company to find out how to get one
installed.
IMPORTANT: If you make test calls to emergency numbers stored in memory, remain
on the line and briefly explain the reason for the call to the dispatcher. Also, it’s a good
idea to make these calls in off-peak hours, such as early morning or late evening.
