Important concepts
Personalize your phone
The ClearSounds A700 phone is feature-rich.
This manual describes all available features and
how to personalize your phone.
The features are described in unique topics that
lend themselves to scanning. If you see an interesting feature, you can take the time to personalize
your phone using the instructions for that feature.
The default remote access PIN for this phone is
0000.
15
Important concepts
Choose answering machine or voicemail
Before you set up and personalize your new phone,
you must decide how you will store messages. You
must choose one method as a primary message
retrieval method: answering machine or voicemail.
The phone includes a built-in answering machine.
Voicemail service is purchased through your
telephone service provider. Each method has
unique features and benefits.
When your line is engaged, voicemail service detects
and stores a record of incoming calls and messages,
whereas the answering machine does not.
If you prefer using an answering machine for
easy message access, but you also want to be
alerted to incoming calls when you are on the
line with another caller, you can primarily use the
answering machine and purchase voicemail with
the call waiting feature. For further information, see
page 95.
By default, the answering machine is turned off. To
turn on the answering machine and set it up, see
page 96.
16
Register additional handsets
Your telephone handset is registered to the base
(Base 1).
If you purchased additional ClearSounds A700E
handsets, you must register each additional
handset to the base. For registration instructions,

Insert a pause
What is a pause?
Do you frequently call an automated service number
that includes interactive voice prompts? A service
that requests passwords or steps you through menu
choices, like your bank or your voicemail?
If so, you can save a great deal of time by storing the
service number and all of the required responses into
a one-touch memory key. It takes a little patience to
set up, but once it is stored, whenever you press the
one-touch key, the phone does all of the work for
you!
Automated service messages always include a few
seconds before each prompt begins. So when you
program the one-touch key, you must insert one or
more pauses to wait for each prompt to begin. After
pauses, you enter the additional numbers that the
prompt requires.
In the ClearSounds A700 phone, a pause is
three seconds long. To insert a pause, first dial
the telephone number in standby mode (up to 24
digits). Press the
key to insert a pause, then
press

61
Insert a pause

2. Call the number, and jot down the following, until
you reach the destination:
a. The number of seconds between the last
number dialed and the first prompt
b. The next required response
3. Using your notes, follow the instructions for
storing a one-touch number (for instructions,
see page 56).

responses, press
one or more times
in sequence to equal the number of seconds
before each prompt.

Interference Information
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Modifications not expressly approved by Clearsounds could void the user's authority
to operate the equipment.
Privacy of communications may not be ensured when using this equipment.

Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
This wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured
not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government. These limits are part
of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. The guidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by both U.S.
and international standards bodies. These standards include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health. This device and
its antenna must not be co‐located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna
or transmitter.
This product has been shown to be capable of compliance for localized specific
absorption rate (SAR) for uncontrolled environment/general population exposure limits
specified in ANSI/IEEE Std. C95.1‐2005 and had been tested in accordance with the
measurement procedures specified in “KDB447498 and IEEE1528‐2013”.
For body worn operation, this handset has also been tested and meets the FCC RF
exposure guideline when used with the belt clip supplied with this product. Use of other
accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
