1.1 Equipment Approval
Information
Your telephone equipment is approved
for connection to the Public Switched
Telephone Network and is in compliance
with parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and
Regulations and the Technical
Requirements for Telephone Terminal
Equipment published by ACTA.
1.1.1 Notification to the Local
Telephone Company
On the bottom of this equipment is a
label indicating, among other information,
the US number and Ringer Equivalence
Number (REN) for the equipment. You
must, upon request, provide this
information to your telephone company.
The REN is useful in determining the
number of devices you may connect to
your telephone line and still have all of
these devices 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
5. To be certain of the number of devices
you may connect to your line as
determined by the REN, you should
contact your local telephone company.
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 this product. It is
designed to be connected to a compatible
modular jack that is also compliant. See
installation instructions for details.
Notes
• This equipment may not be used on
coin service provided by the telephone
company.
• Party lines are subject to state tariffs,
and therefore, you may not be able to
use your own telephone equipment if
you are on a party line. Check with
your local telephone company.
• Notice must be given to the telephone
company upon permanent
disconnection of your telephone from
your line.
• If your home has specially wired alarm
equipment connected to the
telephone line, ensure the installation
of this product does not disable your
alarm equipment. If you have questions
about what will disable alarm
equipment, consult your telephone
company or a qualified installer.
US Number is located on the cabinet
bottom.
REN Number is located on the cabinet
bottom.
1.1.2 Rights of the Telephone
Company
Should your equipment cause trouble on
your line which may harm the telephone
network, the telephone company shall,
where practicable, notify you that
temporary discontinuance of service may
be required. Where prior notice is not
practicable and the circumstances
cd155_ifu_master_en_us.book Page 3 Wednesday, October 24, 2007 6:46 PM
4 Safety information
warrant such action, the telephone
company may temporarily discontinue
service immediately. In case of such
temporary discontinuance, the telephone
company must: (1) promptly notify you of
such temporary discontinuance; (2) afford
you the opportunity to correct the
situation; and (3) inform you of your right
to bring a complaint to the Commission
pursuant to procedures set forth in
Subpart E of Part 68, FCC Rules and
Regulations.
The telephone company may make
changes in its communications facilities,
equipment, operations or procedures
where such action is required in the
operation of its business and not
inconsistent with FCC Rules and
Regulations. If these changes are
expected to affect the use or
performance of your telephone
equipment, the telephone company must
give you adequate notice, in writing, to
allow you to maintain uninterrupted
service.

4.1 Connect the base station
Place the base station in a central
location near the telephone line
socket and electricity socket.
Connect the line cord and the
power cable to their corresponding
connectors at the back of the base
station.
Connect the other end of the line
cord and power cable to their
respective sockets.
Note
The line adaptor may not be attached to the
line cord. In this case, you have to connect
the line adaptor to the line cord first before
plugging the line cord to the line socket.
Warning
Avoid placing the base station too close to
large metal objects such as filing cabinets,
radiators or electrical appliances. This can
impair the range and sound quality.
Buildings with thick internal and external
walls may impair transmission of signals to
and from the base.
Warning
The base station does not have an ON/OFF
power switch. Power is applied when the
power adaptor is plugged into the unit and
connected to the electricity socket. The
only way to power down the unit is to
unplug the power adaptor from the
electricity socket. Therefore, ensure that
the electricity socket is easily accessible.
The power adaptor and telephone line cord
have to be connected correctly, as incorrect
connection could damage the unit.
Always use the telephone line cord
supplied with the unit. Otherwise, you
may not get a dial tone.
4.2 Wall mounting the base
The base is designed to support wall
mounting. To wall mount the base, follow
the instructions below.
Warning
Other wall mounting methods are not
recommended and may damage the
product.
Remove the bracket from the back
of the base station by pressing down
the two latches on the top of the
bracket.
Turn the bracket upside down and
then re-insert the bracket to the
back of the base station.

Slide out the battery cover.
Place the batteries in the correct
polarity as indicated and replace the
cover.
4.3.2 Charge battery
Warning
The handset must be charged for at least 24
hours before using it for the first time.
When the battery level becomes low, the
low battery sensor alerts you by sounding an
audible tone and blinking the battery icon.
If the battery level becomes exceedingly
low, the phone automatically switches off
shortly after the alert and any function in
progress will not be saved.
Place the handset on the charging cradle
of the base station. A beep is emitted if
the handset is placed correctly.
The battery icon on the display
blinks during charge.
The battery icon becomes steady
when the handset is fully charged.
Note
Optimal battery life is reached after 3
cycles of complete charging (over 15
hours) and discharging, allowing
approximately 12 hours of talk-time and
150 hours of stand-by time.
The indoor and outdoor range of the phone
is up to 50 metres and 300 metres
respectively. When the handset moves
beyond the operation range, the antenna
icon will blink.
Tip
When reaching the range limit and the
conversation becomes crackly, move
closer to the base.
