Clear voicemail indication
Use this feature when the telephone indicates there is new
voicemail but there is none. For example, when you have
accessed your voicemail while away from home. This
feature only turns off the displayed NEW VOICEMAIL
message,
icon, and VOICEMAIL light; it does not delete
your voicemail messages. As long as you have new
voicemail messages, your local telephone company
continues to send the signal to turn on the indicator.

Home area code
If you dial seven digits to make a local call (no area code
required), enter your area code into the telephone as the
home area code. When you receive a call from within your
home area code, the caller ID history only displays the
seven digits of the telephone number.
This feature makes it easy for you to place a call from the
caller ID log. If you dial 10 digits to make a local phone
call, do not use this home area code feature. If you do, you
will not be able to place calls from you caller ID log as
they have only seven digits.

About caller ID
This product supports caller ID services provided by most
local telephone service companies. Depending on your
service subscription, you may see the caller’s number, or
the caller’s name and number that are sent by the
telephone company after the first or second ring.
Caller ID allows you to see the name, number, date and
time of calls.
Information about caller ID with call waiting

MSG#
:036
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 to combine these
services).
• You have only caller ID service, or only call waiting
service.
• You don't subscribe to caller ID or call waiting services.
There are fees for caller ID services. In addition, services may not be available
in all areas.
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 by the telephone company
along with the call information.
The caller ID information may not be available for every incoming call. The
callers may intentionally block their names and/or telephone numbers. To
view call log entries with numbers between 16 and 23 digits, you must save
the entry to the directory (see pages 21-22).
NOTE: You can use this product with regular caller ID service, or you can use this
product’s other features without subscribing to either caller ID or combined
caller ID with call waiting service.

Caller ID
Caller ID operation
Memory match
If the incoming telephone number exactly matches a
telephone number in your directory, the name that
appears on the screen matches the corresponding
name in your directory.
For example, if Christine Smith calls, her name appears as
Chris if this is how you entered it into your directory.
NOTE: The number shown by your caller ID is in the format
sent by the phone company. The phone company usually
delivers ten-digit phone numbers (area code plus phone
number). If the telephone number of the caller does not
exactly match a number in your directory, the name appears
as it is delivered by the phone company. For example, if the
phone company includes the area code and the directory
number does not, the name appears as delivered by the
phone company.

Missed (new) calls indicator
When a handset is in idle mode and has calls that have not
been reviewed, its screen shows XX MISSED CALLS.
All unreviewed entries are counted as missed calls. Each
time you review a call log entry marked NEW, the number
of missed calls decreases by one.
If you do not want to review the missed calls one by one,
but you still want to keep them in the caller ID history, you
can press and hold
OFF/CLEAR for four seconds when
the handset is idle. All the entries in the caller ID history
will be considered old (have been reviewed), and the
missed calls counter shows 0.

Caller ID
Caller ID history
How the caller ID history (call log) works
The telephone stores caller ID information about the last
50 incoming calls in the telephone base. Entries are
stored in reverse chronological order. The phone deletes
the oldest entry when the log is full to make room for
new calls. This information is common to all handsets, so
changes made using any handset are reflected in all
other handsets. If you answer a call before the
information appears on the screen, it does not show in
the caller ID history.
Review the caller ID history to find out who called, to
easily return the call, or to copy the caller’s name and
number into your directory.
XX MISSED CALL(S) will appear if there are new call log
entries (including missed and unreviewed calls). CALL
LOG EMPTY appears if there are no records in the call
log.
NOTES:
1. Only one handset can review the caller ID history at a
time. If another handset attempts to enter the directory
or caller ID history, it shows NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS
TIME.
2. Each entry may have up to 24 digits for the phone
number and 15 characters for the name.

Taking care of your telephone
• Your cordless telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts, so it must
be treated with care.
• Avoid rough treatment.
• Place the handset down gently.
• Save the original packing materials to protect your telephone if you ever
need to ship it.
Avoid water
• Your telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not use the handset in
the rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not install the telephone base
near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
• Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic
equipment. For your own safety, take caution when using electric
appliances during storms.
Cleaning your telephone
• Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for
many years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or
a mild soap.
• Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when you are wet or standing in
water. If the telephone base should fall into water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE
POWER CORD AND TELEPHONE LINE CORDS FROM THE WALL. Then pull the telephone out by the
unplugged cords.

Especially about cordless telephones
• 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, switched off or if the electrical power is interrupted.
45
Appendix E
Important safety information
• 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 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-metal hydride rechargeable batteries: Dispose of these batteries in a
safe manner. Do not burn or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned
or punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury.
The RBRC™ Seal means that the manufacturer is voluntarily participating in an industry program to
collect and recycle nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries when taken out of service within the
United States. These batteries may be taken to a participating local retailer of replacement batteries
or recycling center. Or you may call 1 (800) 8-BATTERY for locations accepting spent Ni-MH batteries.
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.
