User’s Guide  
Because it is necessary to charge the handset  
for 12 hours prior to connecting the phone for  
use the first time, it is better to leave the unit  
on a flat surface during initial charge before  
attempting to hang it on the wall.  
Use the MUTE button to interrupt a phone conversation to talk privately with someone  
else in the room.  
Use the RE/PA button to insert a pause when a delay is needed in the dialing sequence  
(for example, when you must dial a 9 to get an outside line or when you must enter  
codes to access your bank’s information line). Each pause counts toward the 20-digit  
limit.  
• Do not burn, disassemble, mutilate, or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, toxic  
materials could be released which can cause injury.  
BAT LOW indicator  
stays on  
• Place handset in base for 10 seconds to  
reset the phone. If that doesn’t work,  
charge battery for 12 hours.  
Your 900 MHz Cordless Telephone is designed to give you flexibility in use and high  
quality performance. To get the most from your new cordless telephone, we suggest  
that you take a few minutes right now to read through this instruction manual.

— Is the base power cord connected to a  
working outlet?  
You need an RJ11 (CA11A) type modular jack, which is the most common type  
of phone jack and might look like the one pictured here. If you dont have a  
modular jack, call your local phone company to find out how to get one  
installed.  
IMPORTANT: If you make test calls to emergency numbers stored in memory, remain  
on the line and briefly explain the reason for the call to the dispatcher. Also, it’s a good  
idea to make these calls in off-peak hours, such as early morning or late evening.

INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may  
cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such  
interference, the base of the cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top  
of a TV or VCR. If interference continues, moving the cordless telephone farther  
away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.

called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one  
line should not exceed 5. To be certain of the number of devices you may connect to  
your line as determined by the REN, you should contact your local telephone company.
