•Check to see if the handset battery pack is connected inside the
handset battery compartment.
•Make sure that the adaptor plug is connected to the base unit.
•Check for the telephone line cord connections. Ensure that both
connectors are plugged securely on the jacks.
•Test the phone at a different telephone wall jack and listen for a
dial tone.
•Test a different phone in the wall jack and listen for a dial tone.
Will not ring •The phone or another phone connected to the same line may be
in the off-hook (IN USE) position.
•Try a different phone, if the problem still exists, the fault is not
with the unit.
Static •The rechargeable battery pack might be weak. Allow the
rechargeable battery pack to charge fully before using.
•Try a different phone, if the problem still exists, the fault is not
with the unit.
•Some atmospheric conditions such as very low humidity can
cause static build-up.

Interference: Some electronic devices operate in and/or generate interference near the
operating frequencies of your cordless telephone. While several protection circuits are used
to prevent unwanted signals, there may be periods when these unwanted signals cause
interference. If interference occurs frequently, it can be minimized or eliminated by lowering
the height of your base antenna or by relocating the base unit. You can check for interference
before selecting the final base unit
location by plugging in the phone.
Improving Cordless Reception
Follow these guidelines to improve cordless sound quality:
•Select an area to install the unit where it is closest to the center of your home or office.
This will improve the operating range of the unit.
•Keep the unit base unit away from electrical equipment. Radio Frequency Interference
(RFI) is sometimes generated by these appliances, which can cause degradation in
cordless reception.
•Keep the handset battery pack charged as much as possible. Weak handset battery
pack can limit the range of cordless operation.
MAINTENANCE
Your phone should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heaters, stoves or
any other appliance that produces heat.
Cleaning the Unit
•Use a slightly damp cloth to clean the plastic cabinet. Never use polish, solvents,
abrasives or strong detergents since these can damage the finish.
Charging
1. Make sure the AC adaptor and telephone line cord is connected to the unit.
2. Place the handset on the charger cradle. The CHARGE LED indicator will steadily light
up on the charger unit.
Leave the handset charging on the charger for 12 hours continuously to get a maximum
charge. The unit is now ready for regular use.

You can set your phone in blocking call mode within desired times(from 1 to 12 hours),
In standby mode, enter the digits as below:
* * 5 ? # #, then press and hold the SET button 2 seconds.
Note: ? means the digit from 0-9,* and #.
0 is 10 hours, * is 11 hours, # is 12 hours.

pannel.
Security
65,536 Combination Security Coding
The unit has a digital coding security system to prevent unauthorized use of your telephone
line by other cordless phones nearby. The unit has 65,536 possible security code
combinations.
Out of Range Detection
The unit is equipped with an Out-of-Range detection system. If you have the handset too far
away from the base unit during a call, the handset may lose its link with the base unit. When
this happens, the handset emits a beeping sound every second to warn you that the
background noise level is too high for proper communication between the handset and the
base unit. When you hear this sound, you should move closer to the base unit to reduce the
noise level. Otherwise, the call will automatically cut off.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
This cordless phone 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.
Noise: Electric 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.
Range: Because radio frequencies are used, location of the base unit can affect operating
range. Try several locations in your home or business and pick the one that gives you the
clearest signal.
