Security SystemYour cordless telephone uses a digital coding security system to prevent unauthorized use ofyour telephone line by another nearby cordless telephone. The system has its own identifyingsignal created by microcomputers in both the BASE UNIT and the HANDSET.Security CodeThis telephone has an internal security code with 65,536 possible combinations. Resetting Security Code and Channel InformationCommunication between the HANDSET and the BASE UNIT may not be possible in any of thefollowing 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 AccessYour cordless telephone lets you select a channel from the 40 frequencies available to transmitsignals between the BASE UNIT and HANDSET.

Battery TypeUse the following type and size of BATTERY PACK:Cordless Telephone BATTERY PACK3.6V, 600mAhU.S. Electronics Inc.Ni-MH Battery Pack: Model B655This BATTERY PACK is available through:U.S. Electronics Service Center105 Madison AvenueNew York, NY 100161-800-825-5208NOTES: 1. During a power interruption, the BASE UNIT does not operate, and a phoneconversation cannot be made on the HANDSET.2. A “beep” will be heard when the HANDSET is properly positioned in theBASE UNIT CHARGE CRADLE and charging. Securely positioning theHANDSET, KEYPAD face up, in the BASE UNIT will also prevent theHANDSET from failing.Recharging the Battery PackThe nickel metal hydride (Ni-MH) BATTERY PACK in the HANDSET can be recharged manytimes using the built-in charger in the BASE UNIT.When the BATTLOW symbol appears on the LCD Screen, a “beep” sound will be heard every10 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 willbe 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 thedischarging pattern it was subjected to. This is known as a “MEMORY” condition which causesrapid discharging thereby shortening the BATTERY PACK charge span. If you believe yourBATTERYPACK has developed a “MEMORY” condition, do not charge the HANDSET until theBATTLOW symbol appears on the LCD Screen. When the BATTLOW symbol appears on theLCD Screen, charge the HANDSET fully for 12 hours.29Recharging the BATTERY PACKIMPORTANTIn order to get maximum life from the HANDSETBATTERY PACK, be sure to charge the HANDSET for 12hours before initial use.

Technical InformationThis cordless telephone uses radio frequencies to allow mobility. There are certain difficulties inusing radio frequencies with a cordless telephone. While these are normal, the following couldaffect the operation of your system.NoiseElectrical pulse noise is present in most homes at one time or another. This noise is mostintense during electrical storms. Certain kinds of electrical equipment such as light dimmers,fluorescent bulbs, motors, and fans also generate noise pulses. Because radio frequencies aresusceptible 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.RangeBecause 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 signalto the HANDSET.InterferenceElectronic circuits activate a relay to connect the cordless telephone to your telephone line.These electronic circuits operate in the radio frequency spectrum. While several protectioncircuits are used to prevent unwanted signals, there may be periods when these unwantedsignals enter the BASE UNIT.You may hear clicks or hear the relay activate while you are notusing the HANDSET. If the interference occurs frequently, it can be minimized or eliminated byrelocating the BASE UNIT.You can check for interference before selecting the final BASE UNITlocation by plugging in the telephone.NOTICE:This cordless telephone uses radio communication between the HANDSET and the BASEUNIT and may not ensure privacy of communication. Other devices, including another cordlesstelephone, may interfere with the operation of this cordless telephone or cause noise duringoperation. Units not containing coded access may be accessed by other radio communicationsystems. Cordless telephones must not cause interference to any licensed radio service.32Technical InformationIMPORTANTWhen you hear interference, press thebutton to change the operatingchannel.DELETESCAN
