RINGER ON/OFF SWITCHHANDSET ControlsTechnical InformationTechnical InformationThis cordless telephone uses radio frequencies to allow mobility. There are certain difficulties in using radio frequencies with a cordless telephone. While these are normal, the following could affect the operation of your system.NoiseElectrical pulse noise is present in most homes at one time or another. This noise is most intense during electrical storms. Certain kinds of electrical equipment such as light dimmers, fluorescent bulbs, motors, and fans also generate noise pulses. Because radio frequencies are susceptible to these noise pulses, you may occasionally hear them in your HANDSET. Generally they are a minor annoyance and should not be interpreted as a defect in your system.RangeBecause radio frequency is used, the location of the BASE UNIT can affect the operating range. Try several locations in your home or office and pick the one that gives you the clearest signal to the HANDSET.InterferenceElectronic circuits activate relay to connect the cordless telephone to your telephone line. These electronic circuits operate in the radio frequency spectrum. While several protection circuits are used to prevent unwanted signals, there may be periods when these unwanted signals enter the BASE UNIT. You may hear clicks or hear the relay activate while you are not using the HANDSET. If the interference occurs frequently, it can be minimized or eliminated by lowering the height of your BASE UNIT ANTENNA or by relocating the BASE UNIT. You can check for interference before selecting the final BASE UNIT location by plugging in the phone.NOTICE:This cordless telephone s radio communication between the HANDSET and the BASE UNIT and may not ensure privacy of communication. Other devices, including other cordless telephones, may interfere with the operation of this cordless telephone or cause noise during operation. Units not containing coded access may be accessed by other radio communication systems. Cordless telephones must not cause interference to any licensed radio service.IMPORTANTIf you live in an area which receives frequentthunderstorms, we strongly recommend pluggingyour AC ADAPTOR into a surge protector.17900MHzCORDLESS PHONENEWCONT

This indicates that the BATTERY PACK needs to be recharged.Charge the BATTERY PACK at least once every 90 days of non use to avoid battery failure. When the BATTERY PACK can no longer be charged, replacement of the BATTERY PACK will be necessary.The BATTERY PACK used in your telephone may develop a condition known as "MEMORY." Once subjected to a regular short discharging routine, the battery assumes the discharging pattern it was subjected to. This causes rapid discharging thereby shortening the BATTERY PACK charge span. If you believe your BATTERY PACK has developed a "MEMORY" condition, do not charge the HANDSET until the BATT LOW LED indicator comes on. When it does come on, charge the HANDSET fully for 12 hours.Ni-MhIMPORTANTIn order to get maximum life from the HANDSETBATTERY PACK, be sure to charge theHANDSET for 12 hours before initial use.14
