Dual Mode Cordless Phone for Yahoo! Messenger with Voice
Chapter 1: Introduction
Welcome
Thank you for choosing Linksys Dual-Mode Cordless Phone. It will allow you to make phone calls using your
broadband connection and Yahoo!® Messenger with Voice as well as through your regular (landline) phone
service.
The Linksys Dual-Mode Phone gives you cordless convenience, so you don't have to sit in front of your computer
when you want to talk to your friends and it comes with a handset and USB base station. The base station plugs
into your computer using a USB port, and you can connect its LINE port to a telephone wall jack. With Yahoo!
Messenger running on your computer, the handset can show your Messenger contact list on its display. Find a
contact in your list, press the call key, and start talking.
The phone also works with Yahoo! Messenger’s Phone Out service, as well as a regular phone. It rings when you
have an incoming call on Yahoo! Messenger, or on your regular line and it even provides caller ID. You can press
the mute button for privacy, or use the speakerphone function to let everyone join in.
The Linksys Dual-Mode Cordless Phone gives you all the functionality of a regular phone plus the capability to
handle free or low-cost calls through Yahoo! Messenger with Voice.

The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices that may be connected to the telephone line and still have all of those devices ring when your
telephone number is called. In most, but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed 5. To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected
to the line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the telephone company to determine the maximum REN for the calling area.
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may discontinue your service temporarily. If advance notice is not practical,
the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is
necessary.

Interference
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. Re-orient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the distance between the equipment and USB base station.
3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the USB base station is connected.

Caution
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe
system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
Do not attempt to repair or modify this equipment.
NOTE: All electrical work should be performed by a licensed electrician or licensed cabler.
Repairs to the Telephony Kit, including the handset, the charger, and the base station, should be made by an authorized maintenance facility designated by
the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to the equipment may render the equipment void in product warranty and compliance. This could
also void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
RF Radiation Exposure
To maintain compliance with the FCC's RF exposure guidelines, the internal antennas used for this mobile transmitter (USB base station) must provide a
separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons.
Base and handset must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
The handset has been evaluated and found to comply with the applicable RF exposure regulations in accordance with FCC Part 2.1093 for portable devices.
This compliance is based on Specific Absorption Rate testing.
The highest SAR level measured for this phone is as follows:
Max. Head SAR - 0.153 W/kg
Appendix C: Regulatory Information

Max. Body SAR - 0.172 W/kg
The recommended limits are based on recommendations from the World Health Organizations (WHO) International Committee on Non Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP).
The Maximum allowable SAR as recommended by the ICNIRP limits is 2.0 W/kg based on 10 grams of tissue. However in the US, the recommended FCC limit
is 1.6 W/kg based on 1 gram of tissue.
This phone has been tested and found compliant with the belt clip provided with the product. The use of other type accessories not provided with the product
may not ensure compliance to the recommended RF exposure standards.
There is no conclusive proof that these mobile phones are a health risk. The FDA and numerous researchers are continuing studies of RF radiation and health
issues. Additional information on this subject can be obtained from the FDA web site at www.fda.gov.
There are several suggested methods to reduce exposure for the user. Among those include the following:
1. Using a hands-free handset to increase the distance between the antenna and the head of the user,
2. Orienting the antenna away from the user.
Additional information can be obtained from the following documentation:

Noise
Electrical pulse noise is present at one time or another. This is most intense during electrical storms. Certain kinds of electrical equipment, such as light
dimmers, fluorescent bulbs, motors, fans, etc., also generate pulse noise. Because radio frequencies are susceptible to this, you may on occasion hear pulse
noise through the USB base station. This is usually only a minor annoyance and should not be interpreted as a defect of the unit.
This telephone is not designed for making emergency telephone calls when the power fails. Make alternative arrangements for access to emergency
services.
