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.
1Notification 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.

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.
2Rights 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 warrant
such action, the telephone company may temporarily discontinue service immediately. In case

INTRODUCTION
CAUTION: When using telephone equipment, there are basic
safety instructions that should always be followed. Refer to the
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS provided with this
product and save them for future reference.
Your Caller ID phone stores and displays specific information, provided
by your local telephone company, to subscribers of Caller ID or similar
caller identification services.
Your Caller ID phone enables you to:
•Identify callers before you answer the phone.
•View the time and date of each incoming call.
•Record up to 40 Caller ID messages sequentially.
•Know who called while you were away or on the phone.
To get the most from your new phone, we suggest that you take a few
minutes right now to read through this user's guide.
IMPORTANT: In order to use all of the Caller ID features of this
phone, you must subscribe to either the standard Name/Number
Caller ID Service or Call Waiting Caller ID Service. To know who is
calling while you are on the phone, you must subscribe to Call
Waiting Caller ID Service.
IMPORTANT: Because cordless phones operate on electricity, you
should have at least one phone in your home that isn’t cordless, in
case the power in your home goes out.
INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate at
frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TVs, microwave
ovens, 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, microwave ovens, or VCR. If such interference continues, move
the cordless telephone farther away from these appliances.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN
PARTS CHECKLIST
Make sure your package includes the items shown here.
TELEPHONE JACK REQUIREMENTS
To use this phone, you need an RJ11C type modular
telephone jack, which might look like the one
pictured here, installed in your home. If you don’t
have a modular jack, call your local phone company
to find out how to get one installed.
DIGITAL SECURITY SYSTEM
Your cordless phone uses a digital security system to provide protection
against false ringing, unauthorized access, and charges to your phone line.
When you place the handset in the base, the unit verifies its security
code. After a power outage or battery replacement, you should place the
handset in the base for about 20 seconds to reset the code.
INSTALLATION
•Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
•Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is
specifically designed for wet locations.
•Never touch non-insulated telephone wires or terminals, unless the
telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.
•Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
•Temporarily disconnect any equipment connected to the phone such
as faxes, other phones, or modems.

3 - 1/2" Spacers 2 - Cord hooks
3 - 1" Spacers 1 - Mounting
template
3 - 2 3/4" Phillips head screws
OR
3 - 1 5/8" Phillips head screws
BEFORE MOUNTING
Empty the contents of the cabinet under which the unit is to be mounted
and thoroughly clean the underside to remove any greasy residue. We
recommend the unit be mounted at the front edge of the cabinet.
IMPORTANT: For secure mounting, the screws must go into the unit
to a depth of at least 3/8" If the overall length from the bottom of the
cabinet shelf to the bottom of the overhang is more than 1 3/4", you
will need to use a wood shim. The shim can be located between the
cabinet shelf bottom and the spacers. Make sure the wood is at least
as thick as the excess over 1 3/4". If a shim is necessary, longer screws
(available at most local hardware stores) are required.
Cut out the template on the line indicated. The template size and screw
hole positions are identical to the top of the unit.
Need original art. Has to be exact
size if it is going to be put in book.
Also need exact measurements
(hole spacing)

MOUNTING PROCEDURE
1. If your cabinet does not have an overhang:
a) Position the template in the desired location on the underside of
the cabinet, flush with the front edge of the cabinet.
b) Tape the template in place and go to step 2.
If your cabinet has an overhang:
a) Measure the thickness of the overhang.
b) Fold the front of the template downward along the printed
guideline closest to the thickness of your cabinet.
c) Tape folded-down portion to backside of the overhang, and tape
the template to the cabinet underside.
NOTE: If your cabinet has glue blocks or other obstructions, cut out
corresponding areas on the template to clear them. Do not cut out or
cut through the screw holes in the Template.
CAUTION: We recommend safety glasses be worn while
drilling screw holes to prevent the possibility of eye injury.
2. Drill three 1/4" diameter holes through the underside of the cabinet.
TIP: On wooden cabinets you may want to mark and start the drill
holes with a nail or an awl. Be sure to hold the drill very firmly against
the cabinet.
----add drawing showing how the base gets mounted under the cabinet---

Fig. 11
Fig. 12
13
Use masking tape above the hole locations on the inside of the cabinet
shelf to reduce splintering.
If installing the unit under a wood cabinet, you may want to
countersink the drilled hole from the INSIDE of the cabinet. This will
eliminate the use of washers and allow the screw head to be flush with
the floor of your cabinet. If you cannot countersink the holes, use the
supplied washers.
3. Remove the template and drill shavings from inside and underneath
the cabinet.
4. If your cabinet doesn't have an overhang, go to step 5.
If your cabinet has an overhang, select the spacer or combination of
spacers equal to or longer than the cabinet overhang.
5. Insert screws from the INSIDE of the cabinet. If you did not
countersink the drilled holes, position the washers, flat side down, and
place the screws in the holes.
If your cabinet does not have an overhang, go to Step 7.
6. Hold the screw heads down while you push the selected spacers onto
the screws under the cabinet. Be sure to push spacers until they are
firmly against the cabinet bottom and/or fully nested (if more than one
is used).
7. Align the unit under the screws. Hold the screw holes on the top of the
unit against the mounting screws and partially tighten the screws.
Do not fully tighten until all 3 screws are installed.
8. Extend the cord towards an electrical outlet and secure by using the
cord hooks to hold the cord out of the way. For a more attractive
appearance, place the cord hooks at the back edge of the cabinet (on
or next to wall) directly over the electrical outlet to be used.
To attach cord hooks peel off the adhesive on the back of the hooks
and attach to a clean, dry surface on the underside of the cabinet or
back wall.
