Important safety information
This symbol is to alert you to important operating or servicing instructions
that may appear in this user’s manual. Always follow basic safety
precautions when using this product to reduce the risk of injury, fire, or
electric shock.
Safety information
• Read and understand all instructions in the user’s manual. Observe all
markings on the product.
• Avoid using a telephone during a thunderstorm. There may be a slight
chance of electric shock from lightning.
• Do not use a telephone in the vicinity of a gas leak. If you suspect a gas
leak, report it immediately, but use a telephone away from the area where
gas is leaking. If this product is a cordless model, make sure the telephone
base is also away from the area.
• Do not use this product near water or when you are wet. For example,
do not use it in a wet basement or shower, nor next to a swimming pool,
bathtub, kitchen sink, and laundry tub. Do not use liquids or aerosol sprays
for cleaning. If the product comes in contact with any liquids, unplug any
line or power cord immediately. Do not plug the product back in until it has
dried thoroughly.
• Install this product in a protected location where no one can trip over any
line or power cords. Protect cords from damage or abrasion.
• If this product does not operate normally, see the Troubleshooting
section. If you cannot solve the problem, or if the product is damaged,
refer to the Limited warranty. Do not open this product except as may be
directed in your user’s manual. Opening the product or reassembling it
incorrectly may expose you to hazardous voltages or other risks.
• If this product has replaceable batteries, replace batteries only as
described in your user’s manual. Do not burn or puncture batteries—they
contain caustic chemicals.
• If this product has a three-prong (grounding) plug or a polarized plug
with one wide prong, it may not fit in outlets that are not polarized. Do
not defeat the purpose of these plugs. If they do not fit in your outlet, the

Important safety information
This symbol is to alert you to important operating or servicing instructions
that may appear in this user’s manual. Always follow basic safety
precautions when using this product to reduce the risk of injury, fire, or
electric shock.
Safety information
• Read and understand all instructions in the user’s manual. Observe all
markings on the product.
• Avoid using a telephone during a thunderstorm. There may be a slight
chance of electric shock from lightning.
• Do not use a telephone in the vicinity of a gas leak. If you suspect a gas
leak, report it immediately, but use a telephone away from the area where
gas is leaking. If this product is a cordless model, make sure the telephone
base is also away from the area.
• Do not use this product near water or when you are wet. For example,
do not use it in a wet basement or shower, nor next to a swimming pool,
bathtub, kitchen sink, and laundry tub. Do not use liquids or aerosol sprays
for cleaning. If the product comes in contact with any liquids, unplug any
line or power cord immediately. Do not plug the product back in until it has
dried thoroughly.
• Install this product in a protected location where no one can trip over any
line or power cords. Protect cords from damage or abrasion.
• If this product does not operate normally, see the Troubleshooting
section. If you cannot solve the problem, or if the product is damaged,
refer to the Limited warranty. Do not open this product except as may be
directed in your user’s manual. Opening the product or reassembling it
incorrectly may expose you to hazardous voltages or other risks.
• If this product has replaceable batteries, replace batteries only as
described in your user’s manual. Do not burn or puncture batteries—they
contain caustic chemicals.
• If this product has a three-prong (grounding) plug or a polarized plug
with one wide prong, it may not fit in outlets that are not polarized. Do
not defeat the purpose of these plugs. If they do not fit in your outlet, the

Maintenance
Taking care of your telephone
• Your telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts, so it must
be treated with care.
Avoid rough treatment.
• Place the handset down gently. Save the original packing
materials to protect your telephone if you ever need to ship it.
Avoid water
• Your telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not handle it with
wet hands. Do not install the telephone near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
• Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to
electronic equipment. For your own safety, take caution when
using electric appliances during storms.
Cleaning your telephone
• Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain
its luster for many years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly
dampened with water or a mild soap.
• Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when
you are wet or standing in water. If the telephone base should fall into
water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE TELEPHONE LINE
CORD FROM THE WALL. Then, pull the unit out by the unplugged cord.
I subscribe to a nontraditional telephone service that uses my
computer to establish connections, and my telephone doesn’t work.
• Make sure your computer is powered on.
• Make sure your Internet connection is working properly.
• Make sure that the software is installed and running for your
nontraditional telephone service.
• Make sure to plug your USB telephone adapter into a dedicated USB
port on your computer. Do not plug into a multiple port USB hub (USB
splitter) that is not powered.
• In a few rare instances, the USB port on your computer may not have
enough power. In these instances, try using a USB hub with its own
external power supply.
• If you are using a firewall, it may prevent access to your nontraditional
telephone service. Contact your service provider for more information.
I’ve set my LCD language to Spanish or French and I don’t know how
to change it back to English.
• When the telephone is idle, press MENU/SELECT, and then
enter 3645474#. The LCD language is reset to English and the
telephone returns to idle mode.

No dial tone.
• Make sure all plugs are connected properly. Inspect the
telephone line cord connections at the wall jack and telephone.
Also inspect the coiled handset cord connections at both ends.
• Unplug the telephone and connect it to another wall jack. If it still
does not work and other telephones in your home are working, the
problem is with this telephone.
Telephone does not ring.
• Try setting the RINGER switch to +.
• If there are several other telephones on the same line, try
disconnecting some of the other telephones. Having too many
telephones connected can also create problems such as low
ringer volume or impaired sound quality during calls.
Difficulty storing numbers in memory.
• Make sure you are pressing the correct sequence of keys for
storing numbers.
• If you are interrupted by a recorded announcement asking you to
hang up or by a loud buzzing noise, hang up and store the number
without lifting the handset.
Screen is blank.
• Make sure the batteries are correctly installed.
• Replace batteries with new batteries.
Caller ID isn’t working.
• Caller ID is a subscription service. You must subscribe to this
service from your telephone service provider for this feature to
work on your telephone.
• If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital
subscriber line) through your telephone line, you must install a
DSL filter between the telephone line cord and the telephone
wall jack. The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems caused
by DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service provider for
more information about DSL filters.
• Your caller must be calling from an area that supports caller ID.
• Both your and your caller’s telephone service providers must use
equipment that is compatible with caller ID.
No caller ID information while on a call.
• Make sure your telephone service provider provides caller ID
information while you are on a call. This is sometimes known as caller
ID on call waiting or type 2 caller ID.
• The telephone cannot display the caller ID information if another
telephone on the same line is in use. Make sure all extensions are
on hook.
Screen incorrectly displays IN USE/NO LINE.
• Make sure the telephone line cord is connected properly.

FCC and ACTA information
If this equipment was approved for connection to the telephone network prior to
July 23, 2001, it complies with Part 68 of the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) rules. If the equipment was approved after that date, it complies with the Part
68 rules and with the Technical Requirements for Connection of Equipment to the
Telephone Network adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments
(ACTA). We are required to provide you with the following information.
1. Product identifier and REN information
The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among
other things, an identifier indicating product approval and the Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN). This information must be provided to your
telephone service provider upon request. For equipment approved prior
to July 23, 2001, the product identifier is preceded by the phrase “FCC Reg
No.” and the REN is listed separately. For equipment approved after that
date, the product identifier is preceded by “US” and a colon (:), and the
REN is encoded in the product identifier without a decimal point as the
sixth and seventh characters following the colon. For example, the product
identifier US:AAAEQ03T123XYZ indicates the REN would be 0.3.
The REN is used to determine how many devices you can connect to your
telephone line and still have them ring when you are called. In most, but
not all areas, the sum of all RENS should be five (5.0) or less. You might
want to contact your telephone service provider for more information.
2. Connection and use with the nationwide telephone network
The plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring
and the telephone network must comply with the applicable Part 68 rules
and technical requirements adopted by ACTA. A compliant telephone
cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be
connected to a compatible modular wall jack that is also compliant. An RJ11
jack should normally be used for connecting to a single line and an RJ14 jack
for two lines, see installation instructions in the user’s manual. This equipment
may not be used with coin telephone lines or with party lines. If you have
specially wired alarm dialing equipment connected to your telephone
line, ensure the connection of this equipment does not disable your
alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable the alarm
equipment, consult your telephone service provider or qualified installer.
3. Repair instructions
If this equipment is malfunctioning, it must be unplugged from the
modular wall jack until the problem has been corrected. Repairs to this
telephone equipment can only be made by the manufacturer or its
authorized agents. For repair procedures, follow the instructions outlined
under the limited warranty.
4. Rights of the telephone service provider
If this equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone
service provider may temporarily discontinue your telephone service. The
telephone service provider is required to notify you before interrupting
service. If advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as
possible. You will be given the opportunity to correct the problem and
the telephone service provider is required to inform you of your right
to file a complaint with the FCC. Your telephone service provider may
make changes in its facilities, equipment, operation, or procedures that
could affect the proper functioning of this product. The telephone service
provider is required to notify you if such changes are planned.
5. Hearing aid compatibility
If this product is equipped with a corded or cordless handset, it is hearing
aid compatible.
6. Programming/testing of emergency numbers
If this product has memory dialing locations, you may choose to store
police, fire department and emergency medical service telephone
numbers in these locations. If you do, please keep three things in mind:
a. We recommend that you also write the telephone number on the
directory card (if applicable), so that you can still dial the emergency
number manually if the memory dialing feature doesn’t work.
b. This feature is provided only as a convenience, and the manufacturer
assumes no responsibility for customer reliance upon the memory feature.
c. Testing the emergency telephone numbers you have stored is not
recommended. However, if you do make a call to an emergency number:
• You must remain on the line and briefly explain the reason for the
call before hanging up.
• Programming/testing of emergency numbers should be
performed during off-peak hours, such as in the early morning or
late evening, when the emergency services tend to be less busy.
Part 15 of FCC rules
Some telephone equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used properly, may cause interference to radio
and television reception. This product has been tested and found to meet the
standards for a Class B digital device, as specified in Part 15 of the FCC rules.
These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against
such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this product causes
interference to radio, VCR or television reception when it is in use, you might
correct the interference with any one or all of these measures:
• Where it can be done safely, reorient the receiving radio, VCR or television
antenna.
• To the extent possible, relocate the radio, VCR, television or other receiver
with respect to the telephone equipment.
• If this telephone product runs on AC power, plug your product into an AC outlet
that’s not on the same circuit as one used by your radio, VCR or television.
• Consult a dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Modifications to this product, not expressly approved by the manufacturer,
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Taking care of your telephone
• Your telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts, so it must
be treated with care.
Avoid rough treatment.
• Place the handset down gently. Save the original packing
materials to protect your telephone if you ever need to ship it.
Avoid water
• Your telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not handle it with
wet hands. Do not install the telephone near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
• Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to
electronic equipment. For your own safety, take caution when
using electric appliances during storms.
Cleaning your telephone
• Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain
its luster for many years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly
dampened with water or a mild soap.
• Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when
you are wet or standing in water. If the telephone base should fall into
water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE TELEPHONE LINE
CORD FROM THE WALL. Then, pull the unit out by the unplugged cord.

computer to establish connections, and my telephone doesn’t work.
• Make sure your computer is powered on.
• Make sure your Internet connection is working properly.
• Make sure that the software is installed and running for your
nontraditional telephone service.
• Make sure to plug your USB telephone adapter into a dedicated USB
port on your computer. Do not plug into a multiple port USB hub (USB
splitter) that is not powered.
• In a few rare instances, the USB port on your computer may not have
enough power. In these instances, try using a USB hub with its own
external power supply.
• If you are using a firewall, it may prevent access to your nontraditional
telephone service. Contact your service provider for more information.

FCC and ACTA information
If this equipment was approved for connection to the telephone network prior to
July 23, 2001, it complies with Part 68 of the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) rules. If the equipment was approved after that date, it complies with the Part
68 rules and with the Technical Requirements for Connection of Equipment to the
Telephone Network adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments
(ACTA). We are required to provide you with the following information.
1. Product identifier and REN information
The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among
other things, an identifier indicating product approval and the Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN). This information must be provided to your
telephone service provider upon request. For equipment approved prior
to July 23, 2001, the product identifier is preceded by the phrase “FCC Reg
No.” and the REN is listed separately. For equipment approved after that
date, the product identifier is preceded by “US” and a colon (:), and the
REN is encoded in the product identifier without a decimal point as the
sixth and seventh characters following the colon. For example, the product
identifier US:AAAEQ03T123XYZ indicates the REN would be 0.3.
The REN is used to determine how many devices you can connect to your
telephone line and still have them ring when you are called. In most, but
not all areas, the sum of all RENS should be five (5.0) or less. You might
want to contact your telephone service provider for more information.
2. Connection and use with the nationwide telephone network
The plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring
and the telephone network must comply with the applicable Part 68 rules
and technical requirements adopted by ACTA. A compliant telephone
cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be
connected to a compatible modular wall jack that is also compliant. An RJ11
jack should normally be used for connecting to a single line and an RJ14 jack
for two lines, see installation instructions in the user’s manual. This equipment
may not be used with coin telephone lines or with party lines. If you have
specially wired alarm dialing equipment connected to your telephone
line, ensure the connection of this equipment does not disable your
alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable the alarm
equipment, consult your telephone service provider or qualified installer.
3. Repair instructions
If this equipment is malfunctioning, it must be unplugged from the
modular wall jack until the problem has been corrected. Repairs to this
telephone equipment can only be made by the manufacturer or its
authorized agents. For repair procedures, follow the instructions outlined
under the limited warranty.
4. Rights of the telephone service provider
If this equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone
service provider may temporarily discontinue your telephone service. The
telephone service provider is required to notify you before interrupting
service. If advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as
possible. You will be given the opportunity to correct the problem and
the telephone service provider is required to inform you of your right
to file a complaint with the FCC. Your telephone service provider may
make changes in its facilities, equipment, operation, or procedures that
could affect the proper functioning of this product. The telephone service
provider is required to notify you if such changes are planned.
5. Hearing aid compatibility
If this product is equipped with a corded or cordless handset, it is hearing
aid compatible.
6. Programming/testing of emergency numbers
If this product has memory dialing locations, you may choose to store
police, fire department and emergency medical service telephone
numbers in these locations. If you do, please keep three things in mind:
a. We recommend that you also write the telephone number on the
directory card (if applicable), so that you can still dial the emergency
number manually if the memory dialing feature doesn’t work.
b. This feature is provided only as a convenience, and the manufacturer
assumes no responsibility for customer reliance upon the memory feature.
c. Testing the emergency telephone numbers you have stored is not
recommended. However, if you do make a call to an emergency number:
• You must remain on the line and briefly explain the reason for the
call before hanging up.
• Programming/testing of emergency numbers should be
performed during off-peak hours, such as in the early morning or
late evening, when the emergency services tend to be less busy.
Part 15 of FCC rules
Some telephone equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used properly, may cause interference to radio
and television reception. This product has been tested and found to meet the
standards for a Class B digital device, as specified in Part 15 of the FCC rules.
These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against
such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this product causes
interference to radio, VCR or television reception when it is in use, you might
correct the interference with any one or all of these measures:
• Where it can be done safely, reorient the receiving radio, VCR or television
antenna.
• To the extent possible, relocate the radio, VCR, television or other receiver
with respect to the telephone equipment.
• If this telephone product runs on AC power, plug your product into an AC outlet
that’s not on the same circuit as one used by your radio, VCR or television.
• Consult a dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Modifications to this product, not expressly approved by the manufacturer,
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Maintenance
Taking care of your telephone
• Your telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts, so it must
be treated with care.
Avoid rough treatment.
• Place the handset down gently. Save the original packing
materials to protect your telephone if you ever need to ship it.
Avoid water
• Your telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not handle it with

its luster for many years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly
dampened with water or a mild soap.
• Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when
you are wet or standing in water. If the telephone base should fall into
water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE TELEPHONE LINE
CORD FROM THE WALL. Then, pull the unit out by the unplugged cord.

• Make sure your Internet connection is working properly.
• Make sure that the software is installed and running for your
nontraditional telephone service.
• Make sure to plug your USB telephone adapter into a dedicated USB
port on your computer. Do not plug into a multiple port USB hub (USB
splitter) that is not powered.
• In a few rare instances, the USB port on your computer may not have
enough power. In these instances, try using a USB hub with its own
external power supply.
• If you are using a firewall, it may prevent access to your nontraditional
telephone service. Contact your service provider for more information.

FCC and ACTA information
If this equipment was approved for connection to the telephone network prior to
July 23, 2001, it complies with Part 68 of the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) rules. If the equipment was approved after that date, it complies with the Part
68 rules and with the Technical Requirements for Connection of Equipment to the
Telephone Network adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments
(ACTA). We are required to provide you with the following information.
1. Product identifier and REN information
The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among
other things, an identifier indicating product approval and the Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN). This information must be provided to your
telephone service provider upon request. For equipment approved prior
to July 23, 2001, the product identifier is preceded by the phrase “FCC Reg
No.” and the REN is listed separately. For equipment approved after that
date, the product identifier is preceded by “US” and a colon (:), and the
REN is encoded in the product identifier without a decimal point as the
sixth and seventh characters following the colon. For example, the product
identifier US:AAAEQ03T123XYZ indicates the REN would be 0.3.
The REN is used to determine how many devices you can connect to your
telephone line and still have them ring when you are called. In most, but
not all areas, the sum of all RENS should be five (5.0) or less. You might
want to contact your telephone service provider for more information.
2. Connection and use with the nationwide telephone network
The plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring
and the telephone network must comply with the applicable Part 68 rules
and technical requirements adopted by ACTA. A compliant telephone
cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be
connected to a compatible modular wall jack that is also compliant. An RJ11
jack should normally be used for connecting to a single line and an RJ14 jack
for two lines, see installation instructions in the user’s manual. This equipment
may not be used with coin telephone lines or with party lines. If you have
specially wired alarm dialing equipment connected to your telephone
line, ensure the connection of this equipment does not disable your
alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable the alarm
equipment, consult your telephone service provider or qualified installer.
3. Repair instructions
If this equipment is malfunctioning, it must be unplugged from the
modular wall jack until the problem has been corrected. Repairs to this
telephone equipment can only be made by the manufacturer or its
authorized agents. For repair procedures, follow the instructions outlined
under the limited warranty.
4. Rights of the telephone service provider
If this equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone
service provider may temporarily discontinue your telephone service. The
telephone service provider is required to notify you before interrupting
service. If advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as
possible. You will be given the opportunity to correct the problem and
the telephone service provider is required to inform you of your right
to file a complaint with the FCC. Your telephone service provider may
make changes in its facilities, equipment, operation, or procedures that
could affect the proper functioning of this product. The telephone service
provider is required to notify you if such changes are planned.
5. Hearing aid compatibility
If this product is equipped with a corded or cordless handset, it is hearing
aid compatible.
6. Programming/testing of emergency numbers
If this product has memory dialing locations, you may choose to store
police, fire department and emergency medical service telephone
numbers in these locations. If you do, please keep three things in mind:
a. We recommend that you also write the telephone number on the
directory card (if applicable), so that you can still dial the emergency
number manually if the memory dialing feature doesn’t work.
b. This feature is provided only as a convenience, and the manufacturer
assumes no responsibility for customer reliance upon the memory feature.
c. Testing the emergency telephone numbers you have stored is not
recommended. However, if you do make a call to an emergency number:
• You must remain on the line and briefly explain the reason for the
call before hanging up.
• Programming/testing of emergency numbers should be
performed during off-peak hours, such as in the early morning or
late evening, when the emergency services tend to be less busy.

FCC and ACTA information
If this equipment was approved for connection to the telephone network prior to
July 23, 2001, it complies with Part 68 of the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) rules. If the equipment was approved after that date, it complies with the Part
68 rules and with the Technical Requirements for Connection of Equipment to the
Telephone Network adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments
(ACTA). We are required to provide you with the following information.
1. Product identifier and REN information
The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among
other things, an identifier indicating product approval and the Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN). This information must be provided to your
telephone service provider upon request. For equipment approved prior
to July 23, 2001, the product identifier is preceded by the phrase “FCC Reg
No.” and the REN is listed separately. For equipment approved after that
date, the product identifier is preceded by “US” and a colon (:), and the
REN is encoded in the product identifier without a decimal point as the
sixth and seventh characters following the colon. For example, the product
identifier US:AAAEQ03T123XYZ indicates the REN would be 0.3.
The REN is used to determine how many devices you can connect to your
telephone line and still have them ring when you are called. In most, but
not all areas, the sum of all RENS should be five (5.0) or less. You might
want to contact your telephone service provider for more information.
2. Connection and use with the nationwide telephone network
The plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring
and the telephone network must comply with the applicable Part 68 rules
and technical requirements adopted by ACTA. A compliant telephone
cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be
connected to a compatible modular wall jack that is also compliant. An RJ11
jack should normally be used for connecting to a single line and an RJ14 jack
for two lines, see installation instructions in the user’s manual. This equipment
may not be used with coin telephone lines or with party lines. If you have
specially wired alarm dialing equipment connected to your telephone
line, ensure the connection of this equipment does not disable your
alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable the alarm
equipment, consult your telephone service provider or qualified installer.
3. Repair instructions
If this equipment is malfunctioning, it must be unplugged from the
modular wall jack until the problem has been corrected. Repairs to this
telephone equipment can only be made by the manufacturer or its
authorized agents. For repair procedures, follow the instructions outlined
under the limited warranty.
4. Rights of the telephone service provider
If this equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone
service provider may temporarily discontinue your telephone service. The
telephone service provider is required to notify you before interrupting
service. If advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as
possible. You will be given the opportunity to correct the problem and
the telephone service provider is required to inform you of your right
to file a complaint with the FCC. Your telephone service provider may
make changes in its facilities, equipment, operation, or procedures that
could affect the proper functioning of this product. The telephone service
provider is required to notify you if such changes are planned.
5. Hearing aid compatibility
If this product is equipped with a corded or cordless handset, it is hearing
aid compatible.
6. Programming/testing of emergency numbers
If this product has memory dialing locations, you may choose to store
police, fire department and emergency medical service telephone
numbers in these locations. If you do, please keep three things in mind:
a. We recommend that you also write the telephone number on the
directory card (if applicable), so that you can still dial the emergency
number manually if the memory dialing feature doesn’t work.
b. This feature is provided only as a convenience, and the manufacturer
assumes no responsibility for customer reliance upon the memory feature.
c. Testing the emergency telephone numbers you have stored is not
recommended. However, if you do make a call to an emergency number:
• You must remain on the line and briefly explain the reason for the
call before hanging up.
• Programming/testing of emergency numbers should be
performed during off-peak hours, such as in the early morning or
late evening, when the emergency services tend to be less busy.
Part 15 of FCC rules
Some telephone equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used properly, may cause interference to radio
and television reception. This product has been tested and found to meet the
standards for a Class B digital device, as specified in Part 15 of the FCC rules.
These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against
such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this product causes
interference to radio, VCR or television reception when it is in use, you might
correct the interference with any one or all of these measures:
• Where it can be done safely, reorient the receiving radio, VCR or television
antenna.
• To the extent possible, relocate the radio, VCR, television or other receiver
with respect to the telephone equipment.
• If this telephone product runs on AC power, plug your product into an AC outlet
that’s not on the same circuit as one used by your radio, VCR or television.
• Consult a dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Modifications to this product, not expressly approved by the manufacturer,
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Maintenance
Taking care of your telephone
• Your telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts, so it must
be treated with care.
Avoid rough treatment.
• Place the handset down gently. Save the original packing
materials to protect your telephone if you ever need to ship it.
Avoid water
• Your telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not handle it with
wet hands. Do not install the telephone near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
• Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to
electronic equipment. For your own safety, take caution when
using electric appliances during storms.
Cleaning your telephone
• Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain
its luster for many years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly
dampened with water or a mild soap.
• Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when
you are wet or standing in water. If the telephone base should fall into
water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE TELEPHONE LINE
CORD FROM THE WALL. Then, pull the unit out by the unplugged cord.
I subscribe to a nontraditional telephone service that uses my
computer to establish connections, and my telephone doesn’t work.
• Make sure your computer is powered on.
• Make sure your Internet connection is working properly.
• Make sure that the software is installed and running for your
nontraditional telephone service.
• Make sure to plug your USB telephone adapter into a dedicated USB
port on your computer. Do not plug into a multiple port USB hub (USB
splitter) that is not powered.
• In a few rare instances, the USB port on your computer may not have
enough power. In these instances, try using a USB hub with its own
external power supply.
• If you are using a firewall, it may prevent access to your nontraditional
telephone service. Contact your service provider for more information.

problem is with this telephone.
Telephone does not ring.
• Try setting the RINGER switch to +.
• If there are several other telephones on the same line, try
disconnecting some of the other telephones. Having too many
telephones connected can also create problems such as low
ringer volume or impaired sound quality during calls.

• Replace batteries with new batteries.
Caller ID isn’t working.
• Caller ID is a subscription service. You must subscribe to this
service from your telephone service provider for this feature to
work on your telephone.
• If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital
subscriber line) through your telephone line, you must install a
DSL filter between the telephone line cord and the telephone
wall jack. The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems caused
by DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service provider for
more information about DSL filters.
• Your caller must be calling from an area that supports caller ID.
• Both your and your caller’s telephone service providers must use
equipment that is compatible with caller ID.
No caller ID information while on a call.
• Make sure your telephone service provider provides caller ID
information while you are on a call. This is sometimes known as caller
ID on call waiting or type 2 caller ID.
• The telephone cannot display the caller ID information if another
telephone on the same line is in use. Make sure all extensions are
on hook.
Screen incorrectly displays IN USE/NO LINE.
• Make sure the telephone line cord is connected properly.

FCC and ACTA information
If this equipment was approved for connection to the telephone network prior to
July 23, 2001, it complies with Part 68 of the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) rules. If the equipment was approved after that date, it complies with the Part
68 rules and with the Technical Requirements for Connection of Equipment to the
Telephone Network adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments
(ACTA). We are required to provide you with the following information.
1. Product identifier and REN information
The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among
other things, an identifier indicating product approval and the Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN). This information must be provided to your
telephone service provider upon request. For equipment approved prior
to July 23, 2001, the product identifier is preceded by the phrase “FCC Reg
No.” and the REN is listed separately. For equipment approved after that
date, the product identifier is preceded by “US” and a colon (:), and the
REN is encoded in the product identifier without a decimal point as the
sixth and seventh characters following the colon. For example, the product
identifier US:AAAEQ03T123XYZ indicates the REN would be 0.3.
The REN is used to determine how many devices you can connect to your
telephone line and still have them ring when you are called. In most, but
not all areas, the sum of all RENS should be five (5.0) or less. You might
want to contact your telephone service provider for more information.
2. Connection and use with the nationwide telephone network
The plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring
and the telephone network must comply with the applicable Part 68 rules
and technical requirements adopted by ACTA. A compliant telephone
cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be
connected to a compatible modular wall jack that is also compliant. An RJ11
jack should normally be used for connecting to a single line and an RJ14 jack
for two lines, see installation instructions in the user’s manual. This equipment
may not be used with coin telephone lines or with party lines. If you have
specially wired alarm dialing equipment connected to your telephone
line, ensure the connection of this equipment does not disable your
alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable the alarm
equipment, consult your telephone service provider or qualified installer.
3. Repair instructions
If this equipment is malfunctioning, it must be unplugged from the
modular wall jack until the problem has been corrected. Repairs to this
telephone equipment can only be made by the manufacturer or its
authorized agents. For repair procedures, follow the instructions outlined
under the limited warranty.
4. Rights of the telephone service provider
If this equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone
service provider may temporarily discontinue your telephone service. The
telephone service provider is required to notify you before interrupting
service. If advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as
possible. You will be given the opportunity to correct the problem and
the telephone service provider is required to inform you of your right
to file a complaint with the FCC. Your telephone service provider may
make changes in its facilities, equipment, operation, or procedures that
could affect the proper functioning of this product. The telephone service
provider is required to notify you if such changes are planned.
5. Hearing aid compatibility
If this product is equipped with a corded or cordless handset, it is hearing
aid compatible.
6. Programming/testing of emergency numbers
If this product has memory dialing locations, you may choose to store
police, fire department and emergency medical service telephone
numbers in these locations. If you do, please keep three things in mind:
a. We recommend that you also write the telephone number on the
directory card (if applicable), so that you can still dial the emergency
number manually if the memory dialing feature doesn’t work.
b. This feature is provided only as a convenience, and the manufacturer
assumes no responsibility for customer reliance upon the memory feature.
c. Testing the emergency telephone numbers you have stored is not
recommended. However, if you do make a call to an emergency number:
• You must remain on the line and briefly explain the reason for the
call before hanging up.
• Programming/testing of emergency numbers should be
performed during off-peak hours, such as in the early morning or
late evening, when the emergency services tend to be less busy.
Part 15 of FCC rules
Some telephone equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used properly, may cause interference to radio
and television reception. This product has been tested and found to meet the
standards for a Class B digital device, as specified in Part 15 of the FCC rules.
These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against
such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this product causes
interference to radio, VCR or television reception when it is in use, you might
correct the interference with any one or all of these measures:
• Where it can be done safely, reorient the receiving radio, VCR or television
antenna.
• To the extent possible, relocate the radio, VCR, television or other receiver
with respect to the telephone equipment.
• If this telephone product runs on AC power, plug your product into an AC outlet
that’s not on the same circuit as one used by your radio, VCR or television.
• Consult a dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Modifications to this product, not expressly approved by the manufacturer,
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
