IMPORTANT !

• When AC power is lost, the phone loses the digital security code connection between the base and the handset.

When power is restored, put the handset on the base briefly to restore this connection so you can use the handset.

• Your phone operates on standard radio frequencies as allocated by the FCC.

• It is possible for other radio units operating nearby on similar frequencies to unintentionally intercept your conversation or cause interference. This possible lack of privacy can occur with any cordless phone.

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing a RadioShack 5.8

GHz Cordless Telephone. Your phone uses advanced technology to give you superior audio quality and extended range. The phone’s Caller ID unit records each caller’s telephone number (and name, if available in your area) and the date and time of the call, as provided by your local phone company to

Caller ID service subscribers. If you subscribe to Call Waiting with Caller ID, the phone shows you the incoming caller information, even when you are already talking on the phone.

Cordless phones require AC power to operate. When the power is off, you cannot make or receive calls by using your phone.

You should also have a phone that does not need AC power to operate (not a cordless phone), so you can still make and receive calls if there is an AC power failure.

Partner,

RadioShack Corporation has determined that this product meets the E

NERGY

guidelines for energy efficiency.

IMPORTANT

INFORMATION

This telephone has been tested and found to comply with all applicable UL and FCC standards.

FCC S

TATEMENT

Your telephone compiles with Part 68 of the

FCC Rules.Upon request, you must provide the phone’s FCC registration number and

REN to your phone company. These numbers are on the base unit.

Your phone is not intended to be used with party-line systems. Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission, public service commission, or corporation commission for information. Ô

We have designed your phone to conform to federal regulations, and you can connect it to most telephone lines. However, each phone (and each device, such as a telephone or answering machine) that you connect to the telephone line draws power from the telephone line. We refer to this power draw as the device’s ringer equivalence number, or REN on the back of your phone.

If you use more than one phone or other device on the line, add up all of the RENs. If the total is more than five (three in rural areas), your telephones might not ring. If

Ô

NOTE

Ô

You must not connect your phone to:

• coin-operated systems

• most electronic key telephone systems

43-3549.fm Page 4 Tuesday, May 25, 2004 2:15 PM ringer operation is impaired, remove a device from the line.

In the unlikely event that your phone causes problems on the phone line, the phone company can temporarily discontinue your service. If this happens, the phone company attempts to notify you in advance. If advance notice is not practical, the phone company notifies you as soon as possible and advises you of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

Also, the phone company can make changes to its lines, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of this phone. The telephone company notifies you of these changes in advance, so you can take the necessary steps to prevent interruption of your telephone service.

This device complies with part 15 of the

FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)

This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Privacy of communications, may not be ensured when using this phone.

S

URGE

P

ROTECTION

Your telephone has built-in protection circuits to reduce the risk of damage from surges in telephone line and power line current. These protection circuits meet or exceed the FCC requirements. However, lightning striking the telephone or power lines can damage your telephone.

Lightning damage is not common.

Nevertheless, if you live in an area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug your phone when storms approach to reduce the possibility of damage.


IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to persons, including the following:

1. Do not use this product near water, for example, near a bathtub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool.

2. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.

3. Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

4. Use only the power cord and batteries indicated in this manual.

Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. They may explode. Check with local codes for possible special disposal instructions.

IMPORTANT CALLER

ID INFORMATION

To use Caller ID and Call Waiting, you must be in an area where those services are available and you must subscribe to those services through your local phone company. Where Caller ID is offered, one or more options are generally available:

• caller’s number only

• caller’s name only

• caller’s name and number

If you subscribe to Call Waiting ID and

Caller ID, the system can show you the incoming caller information, even when you are already talking on the phone.


INSTALLATION

Before using your phone, carefully peel the protective film off the display. The film protects the handset window during shipment and is not necessary for use.

S

ELECTING A

L

OCATION

You can place the phone’s base on a desk or table, or mount it on a standard wall plate or directly on a wall. Select a location that is: Ô

• near an accessible AC outlet

• near a telephone line jack

• out of the way of normal activities

• away from electrical machinery, electrical appliances, metal walls or filing cabinets, wireless intercoms, alarms, and room monitors

• away from other cordless phones

The base’s location affects the handset’s range. If you have a choice of several locations, try each to see which provides the best performance.

Your telephone connects directly to a modular telephone line jack. If your telephone wiring does not have a modular jack, you can update the wiring yourself using jacks and adapters (available at your local RadioShack store), or have the telephone company update the wiring for you. You must use compatible modular jacks that are compliant with Part 68 of FCC

Rules . Ô

Ô

NOTES

Ô

• If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, be sure that installing the system does not disable your alarm equipment.

If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, contact your telephone company or a qualified installer.

• The USOC number of the jack to be installed is

RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall plate jack).

CHARGE/IN USE indicator on the base lights.

!

Ô

Recharge the battery pack when L o w

B a t e r flashes on the display.Ô

Ô

NOTES

Ô

• The handset should always sit in charging cradle face forward to make good contact with base unit’s charge contacts.

• If the phone does not work, recharge the battery pack. (The battery power might be too low for the display to operate.)

• If the battery pack becomes weak during a call, the handset beeps

L o w B a t t e r flashes. When this happens, you cannot make a call on the phone until you recharge the battery pack.

• If the battery pack is completely discharged or the base loses power while the handset is away from it, place the handset on the base to change the digital security code.

When you first use the phone after charging or recharging the battery pack, the phone might not work and you might hear error beeps. If this happens, place the handset on the base to change the digital security code.

Using a damp cloth, clean the charging contacts on the handset and base about once a month.

About once a month, fully discharge the battery pack by keeping the handset off the base until L ow B a t t e y flashes.

Otherwise, the battery pack loses its ability to fully recharge.

10


The supplied battery pack should last about a year. If the battery pack does not hold a charge for more than two hours after an overnight charge, replace it with a new

3.6V, 600 mAh battery pack with a connector that fits the socket in the battery compartment. You can order a replacement battery pack through your local RadioShack store (or online at RadioShack.com). Install the new battery pack and charge it for about

24 hours.

If you have trouble replacing the battery pack, take the phone to your local

RadioShack for assistance.
