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 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.  
7. Raise the base antenna.  
• Disconnect the base from the wall jack  
and connect another phone to the same  
jack. If there is no dial tone in the second

range? Move closer to the base unit.  
• Make sure the battery is properly charged  
(12 hours).  
• Is the battery pack installed correctly?

HEADSET AND BELT CLIP OPERATION  
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 replacement, you should place the handset in the base for  
about 20 seconds to reset the code.

INSTALLATION NOTE: 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 telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR.  
If interference continues, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or  
VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.

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.
