Introduction
CAUTION: When using telephone equipment, there are basic safety
instructions that should always be followed. Refer to the IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS provided with this product and save them for
future reference.
This telephone answering system is designed to be simple to use, however,
you can reach its full potential more quickly by taking a few minutes to read
this user’s guide.
This telephone/answering system is a multifunction product for use with
Call Waiting Caller ID services available from your local telephone company.
Your Call Waiting Caller ID phone allows you to:
• View the name and telephone number of a caller (Call Waiting Caller ID).
• Identify callers before you answer the phone.
• View the time and date of each incoming call.
• Record up to 40 Caller ID messages sequentially.
• Know who called while you are on the other line or when you were away.
• Screen unwanted calls, eliminate harassment from annoying calls, or to
get prepared before answering a call.
IMPORTANT: In order to use all of the Caller ID features of this telephone,
you must subscribe to two separate services available from your local telephone
company: the standard Name/Number Caller ID Service to know who is
calling when the phone rings and Call Waiting Caller ID Service to know who
is calling while you are on the phone.
Because cordless phones operate on electricity, you should have at least one
phone in your home that isn’t cordless, in case the power in your home goes out.
NOTE: This product is tone dialing compatible only and does not support
pulse (rotary) dialing.
NOTE: This product has the call transfer feature only and does not include
conference feature. Therefore, both handsets cannot be off-hook at the same time.

Before You Begin
Parts Checklist
Make sure your package includes the items shown here.
Telephone Jack Requirements
To use this phone, you need an RJ11C type modular
telephone jack, which might look like the one
pictured here, installed in your home. If you don’t
have a modular jack, call your local phone company
to find out how to get one installed.
INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies
that may cause or receive interference with nearby TVs, microwave ovens,
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, microwave ovens, or
VCR. If such interference continues, move the cordless telephone farther away
from these appliances.
Certain other communications devices may also use the 5.8GHz/900MHz
frequency for communication, and, if not properly set, these devices may
interfere with each other and/or your new telephone. If you are concerned
with interference, please refer to the owner’s manual for these devices on how
to properly set channels to avoid interference. Typical devices that may use
the 5.8GHz/900MHz frequency for communication include wireless audio/
video senders, wireless computer networks, multi-handset cordless telephone
systems, and some long-range cordless telephone systems.
