INTERFERENCE INFORMATION
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.
Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.
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 (that is, the antenna for radio or television that is “receiving” the interference).
•
Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the telecommunications equipment and receiving antenna.
•
Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiving antenna is
connected.
If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult your dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for
additional suggestions. Also, the Federal Communications Commission has prepared a helpful booklet, “How To Identify and
Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C.

INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! You’ve just bought the sexiest, cordless phone on the planet. Of course,
we may be biased. But consider this: With an attachable clip and headset jack, you don’t
have to pin the phone between your neck and shoulder to have your hands free. Then
again, you may never want to take your hands off of this phone once you see how good
it feels. Imagine, a phone that allows hands-free operation while being awfully fun to
handle. Can you handle it?
Your Cordless ID phone stores and displays specific information, provided by your local
telephone company, to subscribers of Caller ID or similar caller identification services.
Your Cordless 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 numbers sequentially.
•
Know who called while you were away.
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 features of this unit, you must subscribe to
either the standard Name/Number Caller ID Service or Caller ID with Call Waiting Service.
To know who is calling while you are on the phone, you must subscribe to Caller ID with
Call Waiting 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.

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INFORMATION
• 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 uninsulated 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.
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.
Certain other communications devices may also use the 2.4 GHz frequency for
communication, and, if not properly set, these devices may interfere with each other and/or
your new telephone. If you are concerned with interference, please refer to the owner’s
manual for these devices on how to properly set channels to avoid interference. Typical
devices that may use the 2.4 GHz frequency for communication include wireless audio/
video senders, wireless computer networks, multi-handset cordless telephone systems,
and some long-range cordless telephone systems.
