with Call Waiting/Caller ID  
 
only telephone. To be safe, you should also  
have a phone that does not require AC pow-  
er to operate (not a cordless phone) so you  
can still make and receive calls if there is an  
AC power failure.  
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.  
Some cordless phones operate at frequen-  
cies that might cause interference to nearby  
TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such  
interference, the base of the cordless phone  
should not be placed near or on top of a TV  
or VCR.  
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.  
Your telephone operates on standard radio  
frequencies as allocated by the FCC. Even  
though the access protection code prevents  
unauthorized use of your phone line, it is  
possible for other radio units operating on  
similar frequencies within a certain area to  
unintentionally intercept your conversations  
and/or cause interference. This lack of priva-  
cy can occur with any cordless phone.  
IMPORTANT SAFETY  
INSTRUCTIONS  
When using your telephone equipment, ba-  
sic safety precautions should always be fol-  
lowed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock  
and injury to persons, including the following:  
THE FCC WANTS YOU TO  
KNOW  
1. Read and understand all instructions,  
2. Follow all warnings and instructions  
marked on the product.  
The phone 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:  
3. Do not use liquid cleaners, or aerosol  
cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.  
If necessary, use a mild soap.  
4. Do not use this product near water, for  
example near a bathtub, wash bowl,  
kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet  
basement, or near a swimming pool.  
• Reorient or relocate the receiving  
antenna.  
5. Do not place this product on an unstable  
cart, stand or table.The product may fall,  
causing serious damage to the product.  
• Increase the distance between the  
equipment and the radio or TV.  
6. Do not allow anything to rest on the tele-  
phone line cord. Do not locate this prod-  
uct where the cord will be abused by  
persons walking on it.  
• Use outlets on different electrical circuits  
for the equipment and the radio or TV.  
Consult your local RadioShack store if the  
problem still exists.

lets, and keys. The battery pack or con-  
ductor may overheat and cause burns.  
• If the product has been dropped or the  
cabinet has been damaged.  
• If the product exhibits a distinct change  
in performance.  
5. Do not attempt to recharge the battery  
pack provided with or identified for use  
with this product by heating them. The  
battery pack may leak corrosive electro-  
lyte or may explode.  
• If the product does not operate normally  
by following the operating instructions.  
Adjust only those controls that are cov-  
ered by the operating instructions.  
Improper adjustment of controls may  
result in damage and require extensive  
work by a qualified technician to restore  
the product to normal operation.  
6. Do not attempt to rejuvenate the battery  
pack provided with or identified for use  
with this product by heating it. The bat-  
tery pack may release electrolyte, caus-  
ing burns or irritation to eyes or skin.

cordless type) during an electrical storm.  
There may be a remote risk of electrical  
shock from lightning.  
7. When inserting the battery pack into this  
product, the proper placement must be  
observed. Reverse insertion of the bat-  
tery pack can cause charging, and that  
may result in leakage or explosion.  
11. Do not use the telephone to report a gas  
leak in the vicinity of the leak.

jack. The supplied adapter meets  
these specifications. Using an adapter  
that does not meet these specifications  
could damage the phone or the adapter.  
The phone comes with a rechargeable  
nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) battery pack  
in the handset. Before using your phone,  
you must connect the battery pack, then  
charge it for about 24 hours.

ˆ Troubleshooting  
We do not expect you to have any problems with your phone, but if you do, these suggestions  
might help.

Troubleshooting  
 
Problem  
Suggestion  
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.  
CARE  
Keep the phone dry; if it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Use and store the phone only in nor-  
mal temperature environments. Handle the phone carefully; do not drop it. Keep the phone  
away from dust and dirt, and wipe it with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.  
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 trouble is  
affecting the telephone lines, the phone company can ask you to disconnect your phone until  
you have resolved the problem.
