*6 This setting is available when you have the key detector (KX-TGA20). Read the installation
manual for more information on the key detector.
*7 For models with supplied key detectors, the display shows “1: Detector1”.
*8 If you register 2 or more key detectors.
*9 If you subscribe to a Caller ID service and want to view the caller’s information after lifting up
the handset to answer a call, turn off this feature.
*10 The flash time depends on your telephone exchange or host PBX. Contact your PBX
supplier if necessary. The setting should stay at “700 ms” unless pressing MFLASHN fails to
pick up the waiting call.
*11 Generally, the line mode setting should not be changed. This setting automatically maintains
receiver volume at the proper level depending on the current telephone line condition. Set
the line mode to “A” if telephone line condition is not good.

Baby monitor
This feature allows you to listen in on a room
where another handset is located, allowing
you to easily monitor from different areas of
the house or even while away from home. The
monitored handset (placed in a baby’s room,
for example) will automatically call the
monitoring handset, base unit, or the phone
number stored when it detects sound.
Important:
R Before using this feature, we recommend
that you test this feature and adjust the
baby monitor sensitivity as needed,
especially if you plan to monitor from
outside.
R This feature should not be used as a
substitute for a medical or caregiver’s
supervision. It is the caregiver’s
responsibility to stay close enough to
handle any eventuality.
Note:
R If the unit is connected to a PBX system,
you cannot set the baby monitor.
R During the monitoring mode, battery
consumption is faster than usual. We
recommend leaving the monitored handset
on the base unit or charger.
R The monitored handset never rings while it
is being monitored. If the base unit is
placed near the monitored handset, we
recommend turning off the base unit ringer
volume (page 34).

Setting the baby monitor
Perform the setting operation with the handset
to be monitored (for example, the handset
placed in a baby’s room).

To monitor with a unit
The internal baby monitor feature is available:
– between handsets
– between a handset and the base unit

Useful Information
Example:

Voicemail service
In addition to your unit’s answering system
you may also have voicemail service from
your phone service provider. Voicemail is
an answering service that may be offered by
your phone service provider. This service can
also record calls when you are unavailable to
answer the phone or when your line is busy.
Messages are recorded on the phone
company system and not on the unit’s
answering system.
R To use the voicemail service rather than the
unit’s answering system, turn off the
answering system (page 43).
If you have unit’s answering system set to on
and also the voicemail enabled, the system
with least amount of rings will record the
message first.
Example:
If the unit’s answering system is set to 4 rings
(page 48) and the voicemail answering system
provided by your phone company is set to 6
rings (call your service provider), the unit’s
answering system will record the incoming call
first.

Storing the voicemail (VM)
access number
In order to listen to your voicemail messages,
you must dial your phone service provider’s
voicemail access number. Once you have
stored your voicemail access number, you can
dial it automatically (page 50).

Voicemail (VM) tone detection
Handset / Base unit
Your phone service provider sends special
signals (sometimes called “voicemail tones” or
“stutter tones”) to the unit to let you know you
have new voicemail messages. If you hear a
series of dial tones followed by a continuous
N on the handset
dial tone after you press M
or press MZN on the base unit, you have new
voicemail messages. Soon after you hang up
a call or after the phone stops ringing, your
unit checks the phone line to see if new
voicemail messages have been recorded.
Turn this feature off when:
– You do not subscribe to voicemail service.
– Your phone service provider does not send
voicemail tones.
– Your phone is connected to a PBX.
If you are not sure which setting is required,
contact your phone service provider.

the FCC if you believe it is necessary.

A plug and jack used to connect this
equipment to the premises wiring and
telephone network must comply with the
applicable FCC Part 68 rules and
requirements adopted by the ACTA. A
compliant telephone cord and modular plug
is provided with the product. It is designed

The REN is used to determine the number
of devices that may be connected to a
telephone line. Excessive RENs on a
telephone line may result in the devices not
ringing in response to an incoming call. In
most but not all areas, the sum of RENs
should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain
of the number of devices that may be
connected to a line, as determined by the
total RENs, contact the local telephone
company. For products approved after July
23, 2001, the REN for the product is part of
the product identifier that has the format
US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits
represented by ## are the REN without a
decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3).
If this equipment causes harm to the

WHEN PROGRAMMING EMERGENCY
NUMBERS AND(OR) MAKING TEST
CALLS TO EMERGENCY NUMBERS:
1) Remain on the line and briefly explain to
the dispatcher the reason for the call.
2) Perform such activities in the off-peak
hours, such as early morning or late
evenings.
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.
Privacy of communications may not be
ensured when using this phone.
CAUTION:
Any changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority
to operate this device.
NOTE:
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.
Some cordless telephones operate at
frequencies that may cause interference to
nearby TVs 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 or VCR. If
interference is experienced, move the
cordless telephone further away from the TV
or VCR. This will often reduce or eliminate
interference.
FCC RF Exposure Warning:
L This product complies with FCC radiation
exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment.
L To comply with FCC RF exposure
requirements, the base unit must be
installed and operated 20 cm (8 inches)
or more between the product and all
person’s body.
L This product may not be collocated or
operated in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
L The handset may be carried and operated
with only the specific provided belt-clip.
Other non-tested belt-clips or similar
body-worn accessories may not comply
and must be avoided.
Notice:
L FCC ID can be found inside the battery
compartment or on the bottom of the
units.
