Your RadioShack 14 Minute Digital

Answering System is a sophisticated, fully digital message center. All messages are stored on a chip, so there are no tape mechanisms to wear out and no tapes to bother with. You can record up to 14 minutes of a message, memo, or two-way phone conversation.

Call Screening — Listen to incoming calls so you can decide whether or not to answer.

Phone Pick-Up Detection — Stops recording a message when you pick up any phone on the same line.

Multiple Outgoing Message — Set the system to play your message, the prerecorded message, or play your announcement without recording the caller’s message.

Voice Activated Recording (VOX)

Detection — The systems stops recording after seven seconds of silence or when the caller hangs up.

Remote Operation — Use a touch-tone phone (or rotary phone and pocket tone dialer) to operate the system while you are away.

Remote Answer-On — Call the system from a remote location and set it to answer calls.

Adjustable Ring Number — Set the system to answer after two, four, or seven rings.

If you use more than one phone or other device on the line, add up all the

Select a location near a telephone jack, an easily accessible AC outlet, and out of the way of normal activities. You must use compatible modular jacks that are compliant with Part 68 of FCC

Rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. The telephone cord and modular plug provided is Part 68 compliant for connecting to the telephone company network. 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 your alarm equipment, contact your telephone company or a qualified installer.

• Listen to new messages before replacing the battery, since removing the battery erases all messages.

• You must reset the clock after replacing the battery.

• Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury batteries.

Care

Keep the system dry; if it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Use and store the system only in normal temperature environments. Handle the system carefully; do not drop it. Keep the system away from dust and dirt, and wipe it with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.

If your system is not performing as it should, take it to your local

RadioShack store for assistance. To locate your nearest RadioShack, use the store locator feature on RadioShack's website

(www.radioshack.com), or call 1-800-The Shack

(843-7422) and follow the menu options. Modifying or tampering with the system's internal components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it.

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.

Your system complies with Part 68 of

FCC Rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the back of

FCC Product Identification number in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, you must provide this information to the telephone company.

Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission, public service commission, or corporation commission for information.

We have designed your system to conform to federal regulations, and you can connect it to most telephone lines.

However, each system and device 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 bottom of your system.

If you use more than one phone or device on the line, add up all of the

RENs. If the total is more than five

You must not connect your system to:

• coin-operated systems

• most electronic key telephone systems party-line systems.

Lightning

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.

19

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 telephone. The telephone company notifies you of these changes in advance, so you can take the necessary steps to prevent interruption of your telephone service.
