– use the unit to talk on cellular calls even if
some areas of your home have poor
cellular reception, simply by placing your
cellular phone in an area with good
reception.
– talk on cellular calls even if your cellular
phone is in your pocket or bag.
– enjoy cordless cellular calls even if your
cellular phone plugged in and charging.
Important:
RYour cellular phone must support the
Hands Free Profile (HFP) specification.
RYou may pair 2 cellular phones and 1
Bluetooth headset.
RThe unit can be used to talk on 2 lines at
the same time (for example, 2 cellular lines,
or the landline and 1 cellular line).
ROnly 2 Bluetooth devices can be used with
the unit at the same time (for example, 2
cellular lines, or the Bluetooth headset and
1 cellular line*1).
RLocate your cellular phone near the base
unit. If the cellular phone is too close to the
base unit during a cellular call, you may
hear noise. For best performance, we
recommend placing the cellular phone
between 0.6 m to 3 m (2 feet to 10 feet)
away from the base unit.

the unit to ignore the area code of callers in
your area, so that you can call these local
numbers using caller information without
dialing the area code.

Voicemail service for
landline
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.
RTo use the voicemail service rather than the
unit’s answering system, turn off the
answering system (page 51).
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 54) 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 56).

Voicemail (VM) tone detection
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
dial tone after you press MN on the
handset, 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,

Voicemail
Problem Cause/solution
“Voicemail msg. via
phone co.” is shown on the
handset display.
How do I remove this message
from the display?
RThis notification is displayed when your phone service
provider’s voicemail service (not the unit’s answering
system) has recorded a message for you. Typically you
can remove this notification from the display by listening
to the message. To listen to the message, dial the
voicemail number provided by your phone service
provider (for most cases, this will be your own phone
number), and follow the voice instructions. Depending on
your phone service provider, you may need to remove all
messages from your voice mailbox to remove the
notification. You can also remove this notification by
pressing and holding # until the unit beeps.
Liquid damage
Problem Cause/solution
Liquid or other form of moisture
has entered the handset/base
unit.
RDisconnect the AC adaptor and telephone line cord from
the base unit. Remove the batteries from the handset and
leave to dry for at least 3 days. After the handset/base
unit are completely dry, reconnect the AC adaptor and
telephone line cord. Insert the batteries and charge fully
before use. If the unit does not work properly, contact an
authorized service center.
Caution:
RTo avoid permanent damage, do not use a microwave oven to speed up the drying process.

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
to be connected to a compatible modular
jack that is also compliant.
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
telephone network, the telephone company
will notify you in advance that temporary
discontinuance of service may be required.
But if advance notice isn't practical, the
telephone company will notify the customer
as soon as possible. Also, you will be
advised of your right to file a complaint with
the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make changes
in its facilities, equipment, operations or
procedures that could affect the operation of
the equipment. If this happens the
telephone company will provide advance
notice in order for you to make necessary
modifications to maintain uninterrupted
service.
If trouble is experienced with this
equipment, for repair or warranty
information, please contact a Factory
Service Center or other Authorized Servicer.
If the equipment is causing harm to the
telephone network, the telephone company
may request that you disconnect the
equipment until the problem is resolved.
Connection to party line service is subject to
state tariffs. Contact the state public utility
commission, public service commission or
corporation commission for information.
If your home has specially wired alarm
equipment connected to the telephone line,
ensure the installation of this equipment
does not disable your alarm equipment. If
you have questions about what will disable
alarm equipment, consult your telephone
company or a qualified installer.

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:
LThis product complies with FCC radiation
exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment.
LTo 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.
LThis product may not be collocated or
operated in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
L For body-worn operation, the handset
must be used only with a non-metallic
accessory. Use of other accessories may
not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure requirements.
Notice:
L FCC ID can be found inside the battery
compartment or on the bottom of the
units.
