Caller ID with call waiting lets you see the name
and telephone number of the caller before
answering the telephone, even while on another
call.
It may be necessary to change your telephone
service to use this feature. Contact your telephone
company if:
• You have both caller ID and call waiting, but
as separate services (you may need combined
service).
• You have only caller ID service, or only call
waiting service.
• You do not have any caller ID or call waiting
services.
This product can be used with regular caller ID
service, or this product’s other features can be
used without subscribing to either caller ID or
combined caller ID with call waiting service.
NOTE: Caller ID features
will work only if both
you and the caller are
in areas offering caller
ID service, and if both
telephone companies
use compatible
equipment.
There are fees for caller ID services. In addition,
services may not be available in all areas.
Depending on your service, you may see the
caller’s number or the caller’s name and number.
This product can provide information only if both
you and the caller are in areas offering caller
ID service and if both telephone companies use
compatible equipment. The time and date are sent

For example, if Christine Smith calls, her name
will appear as Chris if this is how you entered it

usually delivers ten-digit phone numbers (area code plus

•
Privacy: The same features that make a cordless telephone convenient
create some limitations. Telephone calls are transmitted between the telephone base and the handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that
your cordless telephone conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless handset. For this reason,
you should not think of cordless telephone conversations as being as
private as those on corded telephones.
Electrical power: The telephone base of this cordless telephone must be
connected to a working electrical outlet which is not controlled by a wall
switch. Calls cannot be made from the handset if the telephone base is
unplugged or switched off, or if the electrical power is interrupted.
Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent
such interference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless telephone near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving
the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce
or eliminate the interference.
Rechargeable batteries: This product contains either nickel-cadmium or
nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to create a short circuit with conductive material such
as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and
cause harm. Observe proper polarity between the battery and the battery
charger.
Nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries: Must be recycled or disposed
of properly. Do not dispose of them in household garbage. Do not burn
or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they
could release caustic material which could cause injury.

Precautions for users of implanted cardiac pacemakers
Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital cordless telephones):
Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR), an independent research entity, led
a multidisciplinary evaluation of the interference between portable wireless
telephones and implanted cardiac pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration, WTR recommends to physicians that:
PACEMAKER PATIENTS
• Should keep wireless telephones at least six inches from the pacemaker.
• Should NOT place wireless telephones directly over the pacemaker, such as
in a breast pocket, when it is turned ON.
• Should use the wireless telephone at the ear opposite the pacemaker.
WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from
other persons using wireless telephones.

such interference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless telephone near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving
the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce
or eliminate the interference.
Rechargeable batteries: This product contains either nickel-cadmium or
nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to create a short circuit with conductive material such
as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and
cause harm. Observe proper polarity between the battery and the battery
charger.
Nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries: Must be recycled or disposed
of properly. Do not dispose of them in household garbage. Do not burn
or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they
could release caustic material which could cause injury.

FCC Part 15
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the requirements
for a Class B digital device under Part 15 of the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) rules. These requirements are intended 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.
Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate
the equipment.
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 telephone.
To ensure safety of users, the FCC has established criteria for the amount of
radio frequency energy that can be safely absorbed by a user or bystander
according to the intended usage of the product. This product has been tested
and found to comply with the FCC criteria. The handset may be safely held
against the ear of the user. The telephone base shall be installed and used
such that parts of the user’s body other than the hands are maintained at a
distance of approximately 20 cm (8 inches) or more. If you choose to use a
clipping device, please make sure to only use the supplied AT&T belt clip.
