Important safety information

This symbol is to alert you to important operating or servicing instructions that may appear

in this user’s manual. Always follow basic safety precautions when using this product to reduce

the risk of injury, fire, or electric shock.

Safety information

Read and understand all instructions in the user’s manual. Observe all markings on the

product.

Avoid using a telephone during a thunderstorm. There might be a slight chance of electric

shock from lightning.

Do not use a telephone in the vicinity of a gas leak. If you suspect a gas leak, report it

immediately, but use a telephone away from the area where gas is leaking. If this product is a

cordless model, make sure the base is also away from the area.

Do not use this product near water, or when you are wet. For example, do not use it in a

wet basement or shower, or next to a swimming pool, bathtub, kitchen sink, or laundry tub.

Do not use liquids or aerosol sprays for cleaning. If the product comes in contact with any

liquids, unplug any line or power cord immediately. Do not plug the product back in until it

has dried thoroughly.

Install this product in a protected location where no one can trip over any line or power

cords. Protect cords from damage or abrasion.

If this product does not operate normally, read Troubleshooting section on pages 75-86

of this user’s manual. If you cannot solve the problem, or if the product is damaged, refer

to Limited warranty section on pages 92-93. Do not open this product except as may be

directed in your user’s manual. Opening the product or reassembling it incorrectly may

expose you to hazardous voltages or other risks.

Replace batteries only as described in your user’s manual (pages 8-9). Do not burn or

puncture batteries — they contain caustic chemicals.

This power adapter is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor mount position.

The prongs are not designed to hold the plug in place if it is plugged into a ceiling or an

under-thetable/cabinet outlet.

CAUTION: Use only the power adapter provided with this product. To obtain a replacement,

visit our website at www.telephones.att.com, or call 1 (800) 222–3111.

In Canada, dial 1 (866) 288-4268.

Especially about corded 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.

•

Appendix

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.

not controlled by a wall switch. The telephone base can be placed on a flat

surface or vertically mounted on the wall (page 10). For optimum range and

better reception, place the telephone base in a central and open location.

You may hear interference if your cellular phone is too close to the

telephone base during a CELLULAR call. Make sure that your Bluetooth

enabled cellular phone is between one to 12 feet away from the telephone

base in order to maintain a clear and consistent connection between your

Bluetooth cell phone, telephone base and cell tower.

If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (digital subscriber line -

DSL) through your telephone line, you must install a DSL filter between the

telephone line cord and the telephone wall jack (page 6). The filter prevents

noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Please contact your

DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters.

Your product may be shipped with a protective sticker covering the handset

or telephone base display - remove it before use.

Your new AT&T TL92270/TL92370 telephone system with Bluetooth wireless

technology has the following features:

Pair up to four Bluetooth enabled cell phones with the telephone base.

Connect a maximum of two cell phones to make and receive cell calls.

Only one cell phone can be active on a call at a time.

Connect a Bluetooth enabled headset for making and receiving home calls.

Conference cell and home calls.

Make and receive calls using your cell phone plan while utilizing the ease

and comfort of your home telephone system.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

After plugging in the telephone base, wait at least 20 seconds before

connecting a Bluetooth device. The screen shows Bluetooth system busy if

you try to connect too soon.

Refer to the user's manual of your Bluetooth enabled cell phone or

headset for more information about how that device uses Bluetooth

connectivity.

Bluetooth wireless technology operates within a short range (about 1

to 30 feet) from the telephone base. Keep connected cell phones and

headset within this range.

If your cell phone has poor reception in your home, the TL92270/

TL92370 cannot improve the reception. However, if you have a location

in your house with better reception, you can leave your cell phone in that

location while you use the TL92270/TL92370 cell line. In order for this to

work, the telephone base must be within 30 feet of the cell phone.

Charge your cell phone while it is connected to the telephone base. Your

cell phone's battery will discharge faster while it is connected to the

telephone base via Bluetooth wireless technology.

Monitor your cell phone's usage because minutes are deducted from your

cellular plan for the duration of all cell calls.

Refer to the Bluetooth setup section (pages 14-21) to learn how to set up

your Bluetooth device. Refer to the Handset operation section (pages 22-26)

on how to operate your Bluetooth devices with your new TL92270/TL92370

Introducing Bluetooth

Bluetooth

Below are some terms used in this user’s manual to help you become

familiar with using your Bluetooth devices and your new AT&T telephone

system.

Active devices - a maximum of two paired devices (two cell phones, or one

cell phone and one headset) on the active devices list can be connected to

the telephone base, but only one cell phone or headset can be on a call at

a time.

Bluetooth cell phone - refers to a mobile Bluetooth enabled cellular

telephone.

CELLULAR line - the communications service provided through your

Bluetooth enabled cellular telephone.

Connected - a Bluetooth enabled device (cell phone or headset) can only be

used when it is connected to the telephone base. When a Bluetooth enabled

device is connected to the telephone base and active on the active devices

list, it will be ready for use.

Disconnected - a diagonal line appears across devices 1 and/or 2 when

the corresponding Bluetooth enabled device is disconnected from the

telephone base.

Discoverable mode - before a Bluetooth enabled device can be paired, it

must be set to this mode. When pairing your cell phone, the telephone base

will be set to this mode. When pairing a headset, the headset must be set to

this mode. Depending on the manufacturer, this mode is sometimes referred

to as Find Me or Visibility.

HOME line - your conventional telephone land line. On your TL92270/

TL92370 handset, press HOME/FLASH to use the home line.

Paired devices - once a Bluetooth device has been paired with the

telephone base, it will be identified as registered to the telephone base. Only

one Bluetooth cellular phone can be paired with the telephone base.

Pairing - this refers to the process of two Bluetooth devices registering

device information with each other. The telephone base must be paired

with a Bluetooth cellular phone before the Bluetooth device can be used.

Depending on the manufacturer, this is also referred to as Bonding.

PIN - by default, the PIN is 0000 for the telephone base and for most

Bluetooth devices. PIN information must be exchanged between Bluetooth

devices before they can be used. This is also known as a passkey

or passcode.

Caller ID

About caller ID

This product supports caller ID services provided by most telephone service

providers. Depending on your service subscription, you may see the caller’s

number, or the caller’s name and number from the telephone service provider

after the first or second ring. Caller ID from the home line allows you to see

the name, number, date and time of the incoming calls. However, caller ID

from the cell line only shows the number of the incoming caller; date and

time of the call is not shown. The caller ID may appear differently if the caller

is matched to a directory entry (see Memory match on page 61).

Information about caller ID with call waiting

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 service provider 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.

Caller ID information is available only if both you and the

caller are in areas offering caller ID service, and if both

telephone service providers use compatible equipment.

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 24 digits, you must save the entry

to the directory (page 63). For instructions on viewing the

digits, see the note of Review the directory section on page 56.

NOTE: You can use this product with regular caller ID service, or you can use this

product’s other features without subscribing to caller ID or combined caller ID with call

waiting service.

If you subscribe to caller ID service provided by your telephone service

provider and/or cell phone service provider, information about each caller

appears after the first or second ring. If you answer a call before the caller

information appears on the screen, it will not be saved in the call log.

The call log stores up to 50 entries. Each entry has up to 24 digits for

the phone number and 15 characters for the name. If the name has

more than 15 characters, only the first 15 characters are shown and

saved in the call log.

You can review, redial, and copy an entry into the directory.

Entries are in reverse chronological order.

When the call log is full, the oldest entry is deleted to make room for

new incoming call information.

telephone numbers (area code plus telephone number). If the

telephone number of the caller does not exactly match a number

in your directory, the name will appear as it is delivered by the

provider includes the area code buy your directory number does

not, the name will appear as delivered by the telephone service

provider.

Missed calls indicator

When there are unreviewed calls in the call log, the handsets

Answering system and voicemail

Your telephone has separate indicators for two different types of voice

messages: those left on its built-in answering system and those left at

your service provider’s voicemail (fees may apply). Your telephone’s built-

in answering system messages and voicemail messages are separate. Each

alerts you to new messages differently.

If and New voicemail display on the handsets, your telephone service

provider is indicating that it has new voicemail for you. To listen to your

voicemail, you typically dial an access number provided by your telephone

service provider, followed by a security code or PIN.

To listen to messages recorded on your digital answering system, press

/PLAY/STOP on the telephone base (page 67).

Some service providers bundle or combine multiple services like voicemail

and call waiting, so you may not be aware that you have voicemail. To check

what services you have and how to access them, contact your telephone

service provider.

You can use your telephone answering system and voicemail together by

setting your built-in answering system to answer before voicemail answers.

To learn how to program your voicemail settings, contact your telephone

service provider. If you are on a call, or if the answering system is busy

recording a message and you receive another call, the second caller can

leave a voicemail message by following the instructions below.

Set your answering system to answer calls at least two rings earlier than

your voicemail is set to answer. For example, if your voicemail answers

after six rings, set your answering system to answer after four rings. Some

voicemail providers may program the delay before answering calls in seconds

instead of rings. In this case, allow six seconds per ring when determining the

appropriate setting.

Message capacity

The answering system can record and store up to 99 messages. Each

message can be up to four minutes in length. The total storage capacity

for the announcement, messages and memos is approximately 14 minutes.

The actual recording time depends on individual message characteristics.

Messages remain available for replay until you delete them.

My caller ID isn’t working.

Caller ID is a subscription service. You must subscribe to this service from

your telephone service provider for this feature to work on your phone.

The caller must be calling from an area that supports caller ID.

Both you and your caller’s telephone service providers must use caller ID

compatible equipment.

If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (digital subscriber line

- DSL) through your telephone lines, you must install a DSL filter between

the telephone base and the telephone wall jack (see page 6). The filter

prevents noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Please

contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters.

•

System does not receive caller ID when on a call.

Make sure you subscribe to caller ID with call waiting features provided

by your local telephone company. Caller ID features work only if both you

and the caller are in areas offering caller ID service, and if both telephone

companies use compatible equipment.

•

A icon shows on the display and I don’t know why.

Your telephone has voicemail indication that is separate from the built-in

answering system. If appears on the display, then your telephone has

received a signal from your telephone service provider that you have a

voicemail message waiting for you to retrieve from your telephone service

provider. Contact your telephone service provider for more information on

how to access your voicemail.

•

I cannot retrieve voicemail messages.

Your telephone has both a built-in answering system and voicemail

indication. They are independent features and each alerts you to new

Appendix

Maintenance

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.

Appendix

Important safety information

This symbol is to alert you to important operating or servicing instructions that may appear

in this user’s manual. Always follow basic safety precautions when using this product to reduce

the risk of injury, fire, or electric shock.

Safety information

product.

Avoid using a telephone during a thunderstorm. There might be a slight chance of electric

shock from lightning.

Do not use a telephone in the vicinity of a gas leak. If you suspect a gas leak, report it

immediately, but use a telephone away from the area where gas is leaking. If this product is a

cordless model, make sure the base is also away from the area.

Do not use this product near water, or when you are wet. For example, do not use it in a

wet basement or shower, or next to a swimming pool, bathtub, kitchen sink, or laundry tub.

Do not use liquids or aerosol sprays for cleaning. If the product comes in contact with any

liquids, unplug any line or power cord immediately. Do not plug the product back in until it

has dried thoroughly.

Install this product in a protected location where no one can trip over any line or power

cords. Protect cords from damage or abrasion.

Especially about corded 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.

•

Appendix

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.

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.
