than one phone or other device on the line,  
add up all the RENs. If the total is more than  
five, your phones might not ring. In rural ar-  
eas, a total REN of three might impair ringer  
operation. If ringer operation is impaired, re-  
move a device from the line.  
IMPORTANT CALLER ID  
INFORMATION  
To use the phone’s Caller ID and Caller ID  
with Call Waiting features, you must be in an  
area where those services are available and  
you must subscribe to those services  
through your local phone company.  
FCC STATEMENT  
This telephone complies with Part 68 of FCC  
Rules. You must, upon request, provide the  
FCC registration number and the REN to  
your phone company. These numbers are on  
the bottom of the phone’s base.  
Where Caller ID is offered, one or more op-  
tions are generally available:  
Note:  
You must not connect your phone to  
• caller’s number only  
• caller’s name only  
any of the following:  
• coin-operated systems  
• party-line systems  
• caller’s name and number  
• most electronic key phone systems  
Important:  
This telephone complies with the limits for a  
Class B digital device as specified in Part 15  
of FCC Rules. These limits provide reason-  
able protection against radio and TV interfer-  
ence in a residential area. However, your  
equipment might cause TV or radio interfer-  
ence even when it is operating properly. To  
eliminate interference, you can try one or  
more of the following corrective measures.  
Cordless phones such as this one require  
AC power to operate. When the AC power is  
off, you cannot dial out or receive incoming  
calls using your phone. To be safe, 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.  
When AC power is lost, the phone loses the  
security access-protection 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.  
• Reorient or relocate the receiving  
antenna.  
• Increase the distance between the  
equipment and the radio or TV.  
• Use outlets on different electrical circuits  
for the equipment and the radio or TV.  
READ THIS BEFORE  
INSTALLATION  
Consult your local RadioShack store if the  
problem still exists.  
Each device that you connect to the phone  
line draws power from the phone line. We re-  
fer to this power draw as the device’s ringer  
equivalence number, or REN. The REN is on  
the bottom of the base. If you are using more

• If the battery pack becomes weak during  
a call, the handset beeps every 3 sec-  
onds and Low Battery flashes. If this  
happens, you cannot make another call  
on the phone until you recharge the bat-  
tery pack.  
• If the display is blank and the phone  
does not work, recharge the battery  
pack. (The battery power might be too  
low to light the display.)  
• If you are not going to use your phone  
for an extended period of time, discon-  
nect the battery pack. This increases the  
battery pack’s usable life.  
• About once a month, fully discharge the  
battery pack by keeping the handset off  
the base until Low Battery flashes.  
Otherwise, the battery pack loses its  
ability to fully recharge.  
• The supplied battery pack should last for  
about a year. When it loses its ability to  
fully recharge, order a replacement bat-  
tery pack from your local RadioShack  
store (see “Replacing the Battery Pack”  
on Page 25).

If you store an emergency service’s number

number, make the test call during the late  
evening or early morning hours to avoid peak  
demand periods. Also, remain on the line to  
explain the reason for your call.  
The phone displays this information after the  
second ring, and it stores up to 50 Caller ID  
records for later review. It also shows if caller  
information is unavailable or if the name and  
number were blocked by the caller (“Caller

Lift the base’s antenna to a vertical position.  
Be sure the battery pack in the handset is con-  
nected and charged.  
Move the base away from other electrical devices.  
You have an incoming call, but do not  
receive any Caller ID information.  
Let the phone ring twice before you answer so the  
phone has time to record the Caller ID information.  
Check that the phone is correctly and securely con-  
nected.  
Check with your phone company to verify that your  
Caller ID service is active.  
If you still have problems, disconnect the phone. If other phones on the same line work proper-  
ly, the fault is in this phone or its installation. If you cannot find the problem, take the phone to  
your local RadioShack store for assistance.

ˆ Care and Maintenance  
Your Radioshack  
is an  
Dual Keypad 900 MHz Digital Spread Spectrum Cordless Telephone  
example of superior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care  
for your phone so you can enjoy it for years.  
Keep the phone dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids might contain  
minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.  
Use and store the phone only in normal temperature environments. Tempera-  
ture extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and  
distort or melt plastic parts.  
Keep the phone away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature wear of  
parts.  
Handle the phone gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage circuit boards  
and cases and can cause the phone to work improperly.  
Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type. Batteries  
can leak chemicals that damage your phone’s electronic parts.  
Wipe the phone with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new. Do not  
use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the  
phone.  
Modifying or tampering with the phone’s internal components can cause a malfunction and  
might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If your phone is  
not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance. If the trou-  
ble is affecting the telephone lines, the phone company can ask you to disconnect your  
phone until you have resolved the problem.

If you have trouble replacing the battery  
pack, take the phone to your local Ra-  
dioShack store for assistance.  
REPLACING THE BATTERY  
PACK  
If you follow the instructions in “Connecting  
and Charging the Battery Pack” on Page 10,  
the battery pack should last about one year.  
If the battery pack does not hold a charge for  
more than 2 hours after an overnight charge,  
replace it with a new 3.6-volt, 600 mAh bat-  
tery pack with a connector that fits the socket  
in the battery compartment. You can order a  
replacement battery pack through your local  
RadioShack store.  
Important:  
This phone can  
use  
nickel-cadmium re-  
chargeable batteries. At the  
end of a nickel-cadmium bat-  
tery’s useful life, it must be re-  
cycled  
or  
disposed  
of  
properly. Contact your local, county, or state  
hazardous waste management authorities  
for information on recycling or disposal pro-  
grams in your area or call 1-800-822-8837.  
Some options that might be available are:  
municipal curbside collection, drop-off boxes  
at retailers such as your local RadioShack  
store, recycling collection centers, and mail-  
back programs.  
Install the new battery pack, then charge it  
for about 24 hours.  
1. Press down and slide off the battery  
pack compartment cover.  
2. Lift the battery pack out of the compart-  
ment, then gently pull on the battery  
connector to disconnect it.  
3. Insert the new battery pack’s connector  
into the socket in the compartment,  
place the battery pack into the compart-  
ment, and replace the cover.  
Warning:  
Dispose of the old battery pack  
promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury it.  
Cautions:  
You must use a replacement battery  
pack of the same size and type.  
• Do not dispose of the battery pack in a  
fire because it might explode.  
• Do not open or mutilate the battery  
pack.  
• Be careful not to short the battery pack  
by touching it with conducting materials,  
such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The  
battery pack or conductor might over-  
heat and burn.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO  
KNOW  
In the unlikely event that your phone causes  
problems on the phone line, the phone com-  
pany can temporarily discontinue your ser-  
vice. 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 proce-  
dures 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 interrup-  
tion of your telephone service.  
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. Neverthe-  
less, 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.
