NTRODUCTION

Your Caller ID phone stores and displays specific
information, provided by your local telephone company, to
subscribers of Caller ID or similar caller identification
services. You must subscribe to one of these services in
order to use this unit.

Your Caller ID phone enables you to:

• Identify callers before you answer the phone.

• View the time and date of each incoming call.

• Record up to 40 Caller ID messages sequentially.

• Know who called while you were away.

To get the most from your new phone, we suggest that you
take a few minutes right now to read through this user's guide.

IMPORTANT:

In order to use this unit, you must

subscribe to either the standard Name/Number Caller
ID Service or Caller ID with Call Waiting Service. To
know who is calling while you are on the phone, you
must subscribe to Caller ID with Call Waiting Service.

IMPORTANT:

Because cordless phones operate on

electricity, you should have at least one phone in your
home that isn’t cordless, in case the power in your
home goes out.

better to leave the unit on a flat surface during initial
charge before attempting to hang it on the wall.

it back in the slot. You need to do this so the handset
doesn't fall out of the base when it is on the wall.

2. Set the RINGER switch on the handset to ON.

3. Place the handset in the base.

4. Plug the power supply into an AC outlet.

The CHARGE/IN USE indicator comes on indicating that
the battery is charging.

modular jack. Then stuff the excess line cord into the
mounting bracket.

EGISTRATION

NFORMATION

Your telephone equipment is registered with the Federal
Communications Commission and is in compliance with parts 15 and
68, FCC Rules and Regulations.
1 Notification to the Local Telephone Company

On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other
information, the FCC Registration number and Ringer Equivalence
Number (REN) for the equipment. You must, upon request, provide
this information to your telephone company.
The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may
connect to your telephone line and still have all of these devices
ring when your telephone number is called. In most (but not all)
areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line
should not exceed 5. To be certain of the number of devices you may
connect to your line as determined by the REN, you should contact
your local telephone company.
Notes
• This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the

telephone company.

• Party lines are subject to state tariffs, and therefore, you may not

be able to use your own telephone equipment if you are on a
party line. Check with your local telephone company.

• Notice must be given to the telephone company upon

permanent disconnection of your telephone from your line.

2 Rights of the Telephone Company

Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may
harm the telephone network, the telephone company shall, where
practicable, notify you that temporary discontinuance of service
may be required. Where prior notice is not practicable and the
circumstances warrant such action, the telephone company may
temporarily discontinue service immediately. In case of such
temporary discontinuance, the telephone company must: (1)
promptly notify you of such temporary discontinuance; (2) afford
you the opportunity to correct the situation; and (3) inform you of
your right to bring a complaint to the Commission pursuant to
procedures set forth in Subpart E of Part 68, FCC Rules and
Regulations.
The telephone company may make changes in its communications
facilities, equipment, operations or procedures where such action
is required in the operation of its business and not inconsistent
with FCC Rules and Regulations. If these changes are expected to
affect the use or performance of your telephone equipment, the
telephone company must give you adequate notice, in writing, to
allow you to maintain uninterrupted service.

EQUIREMENTS

You need an RJ11 type modular phone 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.

INSTALLATION NOTE:

Some cordless

telephones operate at frequencies that may cause
interference to nearby TVs, microwave ovens, and
VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the
base of the cordless telephone should not be placed
near or on top of a TV, microwave oven, or VCR. If
such interference continues, move the cordless
telephone farther away from these appliances.

IGITAL

ECURITY

YSTEM

Your cordless phone uses a digital security system to
provide protection against false ringing, unauthorized
access, and charges to your phone line.

When you place the handset in the base, the unit verifies
its security code. After a power outage or battery replace-
ment, you should place the handset in the base for about
20 seconds to reset the code.
