eliminate interference, you can try one or  
more of the following corrective measures:  
For the phone’s Caller ID memory dial fea-  
ture to operate, you must receive the caller’s  
number.  
Important:

quire AC power to operate. You should also  
have a corded phone that does not require  
AC power to operate so you can still make  
and receive calls if there is an AC power fail-  
ure.  
• 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.  
Consult your local RadioShack store if  
the problem still exists.  
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  
or cause interference. This lack of privacy  
can occur with any cordless phone.  
LIGHTNING  
You telephone has built-in lightning protec-  
tion to reduce the risk of damage from surg-  
es in telephone line and power line current.  
This lightning protection meets or exceeds  
FCC requirements. However, lightning strik-  
ing the telephone or power lines can damage  
your telephone.  
CARE  
Keep the phone dry; if it gets wet, wipe it dry  
immediately. Use and store the phone only in  
normal 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.  
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.  
Modifying or tampering with the  
’s in-  
phone  
ternal components can cause a malfunction  
and might invalidate its warranty and void  
your FCC authorization to operate it. If your

range. If you have a choice of several loca-  
tions, try each to see which provides the best  
performance.  
6. Lift the base’s antenna to a vertical posi-  
tion.  
On a Wall Plate  
Your telephone connects directly to a modu-  
lar telephone line jack. If your telephone wir-  
ing does not have a modular jack, you can  
update the wiring yourself using jacks and  
adapters (available at your local RadioShack  
store), or have the telephone company up-  
date the wiring for you. You must use com-  
patible modular jacks that are compliant with  
Part 68 of FCC Rules.  
1. Route the adapter and phone cords  
through the strain relief grooves on the  
bottom of the bracket if necessary.  
2. Plug the modular cord into the wall plate  
jack, then align the bracket’s keyhole  
slots with the wall plate studs and slide  
the base downward to secure it.  
3. Plug the adapter into a standard AC out-  
let.

battery pack by keeping the phone off  
the base until the low battery warning  
tone sounds. Otherwise, the battery  
pack loses its ability to fully recharge.  
7. Lift the base’s antenna to a vertical posi-  
tion.  
• When the handset is on the base, the  
CHARGE/IN USE/MESSAGE indicator  
lights even when the battery pack is not  
connected. If your phone does not work,  
be sure the battery pack is properly con-  
nected.  
CONNECTING, CHARGING,  
AND REPLACING THE  
BATTERY PACK  
The phone comes with a rechargeable  
nickel-cadmium battery pack. You must con-  
nect the battery pack and charge it for at  
least 12 hours before you use the phone for  
the first time.  
• If the CHARGE/IN USE/MESSAGE indi-  
cator does not light when you place the  
handset on the base, be sure the battery  
pack and AC adapter are correctly and  
securely connected.  
1. Slide off the battery compartment cover.  
• Check the charging contacts on the  
handset and base. If the contacts are  
dirty or tarnished, clean them with a  
pencil eraser.

7
Installation  
 
• If the battery pack becomes completely  
discharged or the base loses power  
while the handset is away from it, place  
the handset on the base for about 5 sec-  
onds to reset the security access protec-  
tion code. If the handset loses power,  
leave it on the base to charge the bat-  
tery pack.  
If you have trouble replacing the battery  
pack, take the phone to your local  
RadioShack store for assistance.  
Important:  
The EPA certified  
RBRC® Battery Recycling Seal  
on the nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd)  
battery indicates RadioShack  
is voluntarily participating in an

industry program to collect and recycle these  
batteries at the end of their useful life, when  
taken out of service in the United States or  
Canada. The RBRC program provides a con-  
venient alternative to placing used Ni-Cd bat-  
teries into the trash or the municipal waste  
stream, which may be illegal in your area.  
Please call 1-800-THE-SHACK (1-800-843-  
7422) for information on Ni-Cd battery recy-  
cling and disposal bans/restrictions in your  
area. RadioShack’s involvement in this pro-  
gram is part of the company’s commitment to  
preserving our environment and conserving  
our natural resources.  
The supplied battery pack should last about  
a year. If the battery pack does not hold a  
charge for more than 2 hours after overnight  
charge, replace it with a new 3.6-volt, 600  
mAh battery pack with a connector that fits  
the socket in the battery compartment. You  
can order  
a
replacement battery pack  
through your local RadioShack store. Install  
the new battery pack, place the handset on  
the base, and charge the battery for 12 hours  
before using it.  
Note:  
To avoid losing numbers stored in  
memory, you must install and begin charging  
the new battery pack within 2 minutes of re-  
moving the old one.  
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 the connector’s pins with  
conducting materials, such as rings,  
bracelets, and keys. The battery pack or  
conductor might overheat and burn.

Check that the phone is correctly and securely connected.  
Check with you phone company to verify that your Caller ID ser-  
vice is active.

ly, the fault is in this phone or its installation. If you cannot locate the problem, take your phone  
to your local RadioShack store for assistance.
