VTech SBC9030 Operating Instructions Manual

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations! You have purchased one of the most sophisticated cordless telephones on the market! The SBC9030 has been designed to offer a new standard in cordless telephone technology.

Unlike most other cordless phones, the SBC9030 digitizes your voice using advanced digital voice coding to provide noise and distortion free performance.

In most conditions you will not be able to tell you are using a cordless phone.

Gone are the annoyances of static, interference and having to listen to other people’s conversations on your cordless phone.

addition, the Intercom feature allows twoway communication between the

Handset and Base Unit. Pressing

INTERCOM on the Base can also assist you in locating a misplaced Handset.

The SBC9030 uses special memory in both the Base Unit and Handset which is not susceptible to power failures. This provides permanent storage of all speed dial numbers, CID information as well as the Base Unit and Handset security codes.

The SBC9030 scrambles your voice before it transmits it. This allows you the security of knowing that no one can tune in and eavesdrop on your conversations.

The SBC9030 decodes and displays name and number Caller ID (CID) information where available and when subscribed to. The alpha-numeric display will show both the name and number of the calling party (when available). Up to 15 name characters and/or 11 phone number digits can be displayed on the LCD.

With the SBC9030, the user can easily answer a call by pressing any key other than the OFF, VOLUME keys or 3 PPU keys. In addition, the handset keypad and LCD illuminate while the handset rings to signal an incoming call. This is very useful in a dark environment.

The SBC9030 includes a

Speakerphone and keypad on the Base

Unit. This enables you to make and receive calls hands-free at the Base. In

1

When a spare battery(not included) is installed in the Base Unit, the SBC9030 uses this battery to provide operational backup in case of power failure. In this way, you have access to all normal phone functions during a total power outage. Calls can still be placed and received without interruption. More than

4 hours backup will be possible with a fully charged battery in the Base Unit.

The phone will also alert you when you are Out of Range even when you're not using the phone!

FCC REGULATIONS

FCC Part 68

The FCC requires that you connect your cordless telephone to the nationwide telephone network through a modular telephone jack (USOC

RJ11C, RJ11W or RJ14).

Your telephone company may discontinue your service if your equipment causes harm to the telephone network. They will notify you in advance of disconnection, if possible.

During notification, you will be informed of your right to file a complaint with the

FCC.

INSTALLING THE BATTERY PACK

The Handset of your SBC9030 is powered by a rechargeable battery pack.

It charges automatically whenever the

Handset is in the Base Unit. You should charge the battery pack for 16 hours when you first receive your phone. You’ll know the battery pack needs charging when:

• The low battery message is displayed:

• The Handset seems completely dead, the LCD is completely clear and does not activate when you press the keys.

TO CHARGE THE BATTERY

PACK

To charge the battery pack, place the

Handset in the Base Unit. The

CHARGING indicator will light to show the Handset is seated properly and the battery pack is charging. It is recommended that the battery pack be charged for at least 16 hours initially.

Afterwards, 8 hours of maintenance charging should be sufficient. You can use your telephone before that with diminished capacity, but it is best to charge the battery pack fully. It will take several recharge cycles to maximize the charge capacity of your battery pack. The maximum battery life between charges is 7 hours of continuous talk time or 14 days of stand by.

Alternatively, if a spare battery pack has been charging in the Base Unit, simply exchange the drained Handset battery pack with the fully charged replacement battery pack from the Base

Unit charger. Place the drained Handset battery pack into the Base Unit charger so that it will charge.

The Base Unit spare battery charger does NOT charge a battery pack as quickly as the main Handset battery charger. A full charge requires 24 hours.

A WORD ABOUT

RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES

Your Ni-Cd battery pack recharges whenever the Handset is returned to the

Base Unit.

IT’S IMPOSSIBLE TO

OVERCHARGE THE BATTERY

PACK

The battery pack can be recharged many times but if you get a low-battery signal even after 8 hours of charging in the Base Unit cradle (or 24 hours in the

Base Unit spare battery charger), the battery pack(s) should be replaced.

To purchase replacement battery packs, call Customer Service at

800-667-2118.

INSTALLING THE BATTERY PACK

REPLACING THE HANDSET

BATTERY PACK

Follow the steps below:

1.Remove the battery case cover by pressing on the ridged lines and sliding downward.

2.Discard the old battery pack. Don’t put the old battery pack in a trash compactor or a fire - it could burst.

Please recycle.

3.Place the new battery pack in its housing with the metal contacts facing down.

+

-

4.Replace the battery case cover by sliding the cover upwards.

5.If the new battery pack is not already charged, place the Handset in the cradle of the Base Unit to allow it to charge for 16 hours.

CAUTION: To Reduce the Risk of

Fire or Injury, Read and Follow the

Instructions

1.Use only Cincinnati Bell rechargeable battery pack, or equivalent.

2.Do not dispose of the battery pack in a fire. The cell may explode.

IMPORTANT: Do not dispose of this battery pack into household garbage.

For information on recycling or proper disposal, consult your local solid waste collection or disposal organization.

3.Do not open or mutilate the battery pack. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.

4.Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the battery with conducting materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery pack or conductor may overheat and cause burns.

To purchase replacement battery packs, call Customer Service at

800-667-2118.

SPARE BATTERY CHARGER/

POWER BACKUP FUNCTION

When an optional, Spare Battery pack is installed in the Base Unit, the

SBC9030 uses this battery to provide operational backup in case of a power failure. If you have a fully charged battery pack in the Spare Battery charger and there is a power outage, you will still be able to place and receive calls on the

SBC9030 Handset for up to 4 hours.

The Spare Battery pack can also be used to replace a drained Handset battery to ensure uninterrupted use. Be sure to put the drained battery pack in the Spare Battery charger.
