11Recharging the BATTERY PACKBattery TypeUse the following type and size of BATTERY PACK:Cordless Telephone BATTERY PACK3.6VDC, 600 mAhU.S. Electronics Inc.Ni-MH BATTERY PACK: Model B655This BATTERY PACK is available through:U.S. Electronics Service Center105 Madison AvenueNew York, NY 100161-800-828-5208NOTES:1. During a power interruption, the BASE UNIT does not operate and a phoneconversation cannot be made on the HANDSET.2.To ensure your phone charges properly, place the HANDSET with the TELEPHONE KEYPAD face up on the BASE UNIT. The HANDSET will emit a “beep” when it isproperly positioned in the BASE UNIT CRADLE.Recharging the BATTERY PACKThe nickel metal hydride (Ni-MH) BATTERY PACK in the HANDSET can be recharged many timesusing the built-in charger in the BASE UNIT.When the BATT LOW LED indicator starts to blink rapidly, a “beep”sound will be heard every 12seconds. This indicates that the BATTERY PACK needs to be recharged.Charge the BATTERY PACK at least once every 90 days of non-use to avoid battery failure. Whenthe BATTERY PACK can no longer be charged, replacement of the BATTERY PACK will benecessary.The BATTERY PACK used in your telephone may develop a condition known as “MEMORY”. Oncesubjected to a regular short discharging routine, the battery assumes the discharging pattern itwas subjected to. This causes rapid discharging thereby shortening the BATTERY PACK chargespan. If you believe your BATTERY PACK has developed a “MEMORY”condition, do not charge theHANDSET until the BATT LOW LED indicator comes on. When it does come on, charge theHANDSET fully for 12 hours.IMPORTANTIn order to get maximum life from the HANDSETBATTERY PACK, be sure to charge theHANDSET for 12 hours before initial use.

14Technical InformationTechnical InformationThis cordless telephone uses radio frequencies to allow mobility. There are certain difficultiesin using 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 most intenseduring electrical storms. Certain kinds of electrical equipment such as light dimmers, fluorescentbulbs, motors, and fans also generate noise pulses. Because radio frequencies are susceptible tothese noise pulses, you may occasionally hear them in your HANDSET. Generally they are a minorannoyance 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 signal tothe HANDSET.InterferenceElectronic circuits activate a relay to connect the cordless telephone to your telephone line. Theseelectronic circuits operate in the radio frequency spectrum. While several protection circuits areused to prevent unwanted signals, there may be periods when these unwanted signals enter theBASE 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 thephone.NOTICE:This cordless telephone uses radio communication between the HANDSET and the BASE UNIT andmay not ensure privacy of communication. Other devices, including other cordless telephones,may interfere with the operation of this cordless telephone or cause noise during operation. Unitsnot containing coded access may be accessed by other radio communication systems. Cordlesstelephones must not cause interference to any licensed radio service.IMPORTANTIf you live in an area which receives frequentthunderstorms, we strongly recommend pluggingyour AC ADAPTOR into a surge protector.
15FCC RequirementsFederal Communications Commission RequirementsThis equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules. A label on the BASE UNIT of this equipmentcontains, among other information, the ACTA Product Number and the Ringer Equivalence Number(REN) for this equipment.
