I N T R O D U C T I O N Congratulations on your purchase of the TRU 248 cordless telephone. This phone is designed for reliability, long life, and outstanding performance utilizing the latest in 2.4 GHz Spread Spectrum technology.
Note: Some illustrations in this manual may differ from the actual unit for explanation purposes.

• 2.4 GHz Spread Spectrum Technology
• Digital Answering Device
• Caller ID and Call Waiting Caller ID
• 50 Number Caller ID Memory
• 3-Line, 16 Character Backlit Handset Display

Digital Spread Spectrum Technology utilizes a “wider frequency band” vs. a “single narrow band” used in standard digital transmissions. The 2.4 GHz frequency range was recently released to commercial communications. The result is a more secure conversation with the clarity of digital sound, extended range, and minimal interference from other cordless phones.
Random Code™ digital security automatically selects one of over 65,000 codes for the handset and base.
These features enhance your phone’s security and also prevent unauthorized calls as a result of your phone being activated by other equipment.
