Security
Security System
Your cordless telephone uses a digital coding security system to prevent unauthorized use of
your telephone line by another nearby cordless telephone. The system has its own identifying
signal created by microcomputers in both the BASE UNIT and the HANDSET.
Security Code
This telephone has an internal security code with 65,536 possible combinations.
Resetting Security Code and Channel Information
Communication between the HANDSET and the BASE UNIT may not be possible in any of
the following situations:
1. After a power failure.
2. After relocating the BASE UNIT by disconnecting the AC ADAPTER.
3. After replacing the HANDSET BATTERY PACK.
To reset, place the HANDSET on the BASE UNIT for 2 to 5 seconds.
Multi-Channel Access
Your cordless telephone lets you select a channel from the 40 frequencies available to
transmit signals between the BASE UNIT and HANDSET. When you notice interference from
other cordless telephones, change to another channel by pressing the button on the
HANDSET.

Recharging the BATTERY PACK
Battery Type
Use the following type and size of BATTERY PACK:
Cordless Telephone BATTERY PACK
3.6V, 600mAh
U.S. Electronics Inc.
Ni-Cd Battery Pack: Model B650
This BATTERY PACK is available through:
U.S. Electronics Service Center
105 Madison Avenue
New York, NY 10016
1-866-466-9228
NOTES: 1. During a power interruption, the BASE UNIT does not operate, and a
phone conversation cannot be made on the HANDSET.
2. A “beep”will be heard when the HANDSET is properly positioned in the
BASE UNIT CHARGE CRADLE and charging. Securely positioning the
HANDSET, KEYPAD face up, in the BASE UNIT will also prevent the
HANDSET from failing.
Recharging the Battery Pack
The nickel cadmium (Ni-Cd) BATTERY PACK in the HANDSET can be recharged many times
using the built-in charger in the BASE UNIT.
When the BATT LOW symbol appears on the LCD Screen, a “beep”sound will be heard every
10 seconds. This indicates that the BATTERYPACK needs to be recharged.
Charge the BATTERY PACK at least once every 90 days of non-use to avoid battery failure.
When the BATTERYPACK can no longer be charged, replacement of the BATTERYPACK 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 PACK assumes the
discharging pattern it was subjected to. This is known as a “MEMORY”condition which
causes rapid discharging thereby shortening the BATTERY PACK charge span. If you believe
your BATTERYPACK has developed a“MEMORY”condition, do not charge the HANDSET
until the BATT LOW symbol appears on the LCD Screen. When the BATTLOW symbol
appears on the LCD Screen, charge the HANDSET fully for 12 hours.
IMPORTANT
In order to get maximum life from the HANDSET
BATTERY PACK, be sure to charge the HANDSET for 12
hours before initial use.

it may be illegal to dispose of this BATTERY PACK into the municipal waste stream. Check
with your local solid waste officials for details in your area for recycling options or proper
disposal.
IMPORTANT
In order to get maximum life from the HANDSET
BATTERY PACK, be sure to charge the HANDSET for 12
hours before initial use.

2. Choose an alternate channel using the button on the HANDSET.
3. Do not use this telephone within 20 ft. of a microwave oven while it is working, as you may

Technical Information
Technical Information
This 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.
Noise
Electrical 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 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.
Interference
Electronic circuits activate a 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 relocating the BASE UNIT. You can check for interference before selecting the final BASE
UNIT location by plugging in the telephone.
NOTICE:
This cordless telephone uses radio communication between the HANDSET and the BASE
UNIT and may not ensure privacy of communication. Other devices, including another
cordless telephone, 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.
IMPORTANT
When you hear interference, press the
button to change the operating
channel.

FCC Requirements
Federal Communications Commission Requirements
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. A label on the BASE UNIT of the
equipment contains, among other information, the ACTA Product Number and the Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. You must, upon request, provide this
information to your telephone company.
The REN is also useful in determining the number of devices that you may connect to your
telephone line and still allow all of these devices to ring when your telephone number is called.
In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line should not
exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that you may connect to your line,
contact your local telephone company.
If your equipment should cause harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may
temporarily disconnect your service. If possible, they will notify you in advance that temporary
discontinuance of service may be required.
However, when advance written notice is not possible, the telephone company may
temporarily discontinue service without notice if such action is necessary under the
circumstances. Thetelephone company may make changes in its communication facilities,
equipment, operations, or procedures where such action is reasonably required in the
operation of its business and is not inconsistent with the rules and regulations of the Federal
Communications Commission.
Do not attempt to repair or modify this equipment.
Warning: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for its
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TV’s
and VCR’s. To minimize or prevent such interference, the BASE UNIT of the cordless
telephone should not be placed on or near a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving

is subject to state tariffs. If trouble is experienced, disconnect this equipment from the
