Visual Ringer
The Walker Clarity comes with a Special
Low-Frequency Ringer designed to be
easily heard by everyone.

The ringer also comes with a volume, pitch
and warble control, allowing it to be tai-
lored to each user.
The ringer Volume Control has three
settings: OFF, LOW, and HIGH. It is

Warble Control
The warble rate, or speed of ring can be
also be varied from Fast/Medium/Slow
when AC power pack is installed.
The ringer also has a Pitch Control that
has three settings: LOW, MED, and HIGH.
The low frequency is typically the easiest
for people with partial hearing loss to hear.
It is suggested that you set the pitch
control to low (the smallest dot) when you
start using the phone.

Programming Personal
Access Codes
• Phone Doesn’t Dial Out
On First Attempt
—Your phone may be at the end of a
long line of phones, due to the way the
phone company installed the wiring in your
neighborhood. In this case, your phone
may not get enough power from the phone
line. Try waiting 3-5 seconds after lifting
the handset before dialing the number.
Wait for the sound level indicator to light
solid before dialing.
• Difficulty Programming
Account Numbers
—Your TONE/PULSE selector must be
switched to the TONE mode to enter
account numbers. This is because most
interactive phone systems require TOUCH
TONE to operate. If your phone service is
rotary service, you must have the switch
set to PULSE to dial a number. Once you
are connected move the switch to TONE
and enter your responses using TOUCH
TONE mode. When your call is complete
move the switch back to PULSE so you
are ready to make your next call.

Feedback Problems.
➤
Static On Line
• Feedback Occurs When
Handset Is Set Down
• Interference From
Household Appliances
S
—Avoid setting receiver on a hard surface
or attach a foam receiver pad to earpiece
of phone. You can also lay the receiver on
its side. This will eliminate feedback also.
H
—Your Clarity phone may be located near
a touch lamp, microwave or refrigerator
which may cause interference. Relocating
your phone to another area may eliminate
the problem.
➤
Transmission Problems
—A cordless phone on your phone line
may also cause static. Try disconnecting
your cordless phone for several days. This
may eliminate the problem.
• The Person On The Other
End Cannot Hear You
—Too many phones or phone devices on
the line may effect your phone’s transmis-
sion. As a guideline, more than five (5)
phones or phone devices may overload
the phone line. Disconnect one (1) or two
(2) of the devices to see if that eliminates
the problem. If not, contact your local
phone company for load guidelines.
— Disconnect any extra devices which
may be attached to the phone. Extra
devices may include cord detangler’s,
caller ID units, and answering machines.
• Interference From
Malfunctioning, Frayed Or
Poorly Connected
—You may not be speaking directly into
the transmitter. Always speak directly
into the mouthpiece in your normal tone
of voice.
Telephone Cords
—Check your phone cords and connec-
tions. Try interchanging cords with another
phone to see if the problem is eliminated.

—These units have a large electronic box
controlling many phones as one unit.
These types of units may be found in
office buildings and some retirement
homes, nursing homes and condos.
If you have any telephone service prob-
lems, first make sure you have followed all
of the installation procedures outlined in
this user’s guide. Then try to determine if
the source of the problem is the Walker
Clarity itself or your phone service. To do
this, disconnect the Walker Clarity and
plug in your standard telephone. If the
trouble persists with the standard tele-
phone, inform your telephone company. If
the trouble is related to only the Walker
Clarity, review the installation procedures
and the troubleshooting guide before
referring to the Limited Warranty stated
later in this user guide.
➤
Ringer Volume Problem
• Unable To Hear Phone Ringer
—Make sure the ringer volume is not set
to OFF.
—Slide the volume adjustment switch to
the large dot and the pitch adjustment
switch to the small dot. This will cause the
ringer to sound at its loudest and lowest
frequency. Typically, low frequencies are
easier for people with hearing loss to
detect.

Your Walker Clarity® has been registered with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). This
product complies with standards of Part 68 of the FCC Rules. The FCC requires us to provide you with the
following information:

3. Repair Instructions
1. Connection and use with the
nationwide telephone network
If it is determined that your telephone
equipment is malfunctioning, the FCC
requires that it not be used and that it be
unplugged from the modular outlet until
the problem has been corrected. Repairs
to this telephone equipment can only be
made by the manufacturer or its autho-
rized agents, or by others who may be
authorized by the FCC. For repair proce-
dures, follow the instructions outlined
under the Walker Limited Warranty.
The FCC requires that you connect your
product to the nationwide telephone
network through a modular telephone
outlet or USOC JR-11C. This equipment
may not be used with party line service or
with coin telephone lines.
2. Notification to the
telephone company
Upon request of your local telephone
company, you are required to provide
them with the following information:
4. Rights of the telephone
company
A. The “line” to which you will connect the
telephone equipment (that is, your tele-
phone number).
If your product is causing harm to the
telephone network, the telephone com-
pany may temporarily discontinue your
telephone service. If advance notice isn’t
practical, you’ll be notified as soon as
possible. You’ll be given the opportunity
to correct the problem, and you’ll be
informed of your right to file a complaint
with the FCC.
B. The telephone equipment’s FCC regis-
tration number and ringer equivalent
number (REN). These numbers are on the
bottom of your telephone equipment. The
REN is useful to determine how many
devices you may connect to your tele-
phone line and still have them ring when
you are called. In most, but not all areas,
the sum of the REN’s should be five or
less. You may want to contact your local
telephone company for future information.
Your telephone company may make
changes in its facilities, operations, or
procedures that could affect the proper
functioning of your Walker Clarity. If such
changes are planned, you’ll be notified.
