Maintenance

Taking Care Of Your Telephone

Your t 2406 cordless telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts, so it must be treated with care.

Avoid rough treatment

Place the Handset down gently. Save the original packing materials to protect your telephone if you ever need to ship it.

Avoid water

Your telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not use the Handset outdoors in the rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not install your Base Unit near a sink, bathtub or shower.

Electrical storms

Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic equipment.

For your own safety, use caution when using electric appliances during storms.

Cleaning your telephone

Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for many years.

Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild soap. Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.

Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when you are wet or standing in water. If your Base Unit should fall into water, DO NOT

RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND TELEPHONE LINE

CORDS FROM THE WALL. Then pull the unit out by the unplugged cords.

In Case Of Difficulty

If you have difficulty operating your phone, the suggestions below should solve the problem. If you still have difficulty after trying these suggestions, call VTech

Communications at 1-800-595-9511. In Canada, call VTech Electronics at 1-800-

267-7377.

The Phone Doesn't Work At All

• Make sure the Power Cord is plugged in.

• Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the Base Unit and the telephone wall jack.

• Make sure the batteries are properly charged. If the LOW BATT LED is slowly flashing, the battery pack needs charging.

No Dial Tone

• First check all the suggestions above.

• If you still don't hear a dial tone, disconnect the Base Unit from the telephone jack and connect a different phone. If there is no dial tone on that phone either, the problem is in your wiring or local service. Contact your local telephone company.

You Get Noise, Static, Or A Weak Signal Even When You're Near The Base

Unit

• Household appliances plugged into the same circuit as the Base Unit can sometimes cause interference. Try moving the appliance or the Base Unit to another outlet.

You Get Noise, Static, Or A Weak Signal When You're Away From The Base

Unit

• You may be out of range. Either move closer to the Base, or relocate the Base

Unit.

• The layout of your home may be limiting the range. Try moving the Base Unit to another position.

The Handset Does Not Ring When You Receive A Call

• Make sure you have the Handset ringer activated. To set the ringer, see

Programming the Ringer Type.

• Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the Base Unit and the telephone jack. Make sure the power cord is plugged in.

• You may be too far from the Base Unit.

• You may have too many extension phones on your telephone line to allow all of them to ring. Try unplugging some of the other phones.

You Hear Other Calls While Using Your Phone

• Disconnect your Base Unit from the telephone jack, and plug in a regular telephone.

If you still hear other calls, the problem is probably in your wiring or local service.

Call your local telephone company.

You Hear Noise In The Handset, And None Of The Keys Or Buttons Work

• Make sure the power cord is plugged in.

18


adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments (ACTA). We are required to provide you with the following information.

1. Product identifier and REN information

The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among other things, an identifier indicating product approval and the Ringer Equivalence Number (REN). This information must be provided to your local telephone company upon request. For equipment approved prior to July 23, 2001, the product identifier is preceded by the phrase “FCC Reg No.” and the REN is listed separately. For equipment approved after that date, the product identifier is preceded by “US” and a colon (:), and the REN is encoded in the product identifier without a decimal point as the sixth and seventh characters following the colon. For example, the product identifier US:AAAEQ03T123XYZ would indicate an REN of 0.3.

The REN is used to determine how many devices you may connect to your telephone line and still have them ring when you are called. In most, but not all areas, the sum of all RENs should be five (5.0) or less. You may want to contact your local telephone company for more information.
