Short Message Service (SMS)
This feature–available only with cellular service–lets you send
and receive text messages to other SMS enabled cellular phones
through the CEL connection at the base or the cordless handset.

Make two separate calls
1Use the base (corded handset or speakerphone) to place a
call–for example, a landline (TEL) call (see “Make a landline
call” on page 13).
2Place a cellular (CEL) call, for example, with a handset that is
not in use (see “Make a wireless call” on page 13).
• The display on any handset or base
not in use shows XXX in use; XXX
means base or handset in this case.
• The two calls are completely
separate and cannot be conferenced.
• If Barge-In is on (see “Barge-in” on
page 31), and the first call is made
from a cordless handset on a landline, other handsets can join
the call by pressing TEL; but the base can not join the call.

•Barge-in
After placing a landline (TEL) call with a cordless handset, this
feature allows up to three other registered cordless handsets to
join the call. Before using the Barge-In feature, read the following
information.
• The D-Mode CT comes with the Barge-In feature set to off–it
must be activated before use.
• If power to the base is interrupted, Barge-In must be
reactivated.
• The first cordless handset to place the call is the “master” and
fully controls the call. Other registered handsets that join the
call are “slaves” and can only join or exit the call.
• Barge-In works only for cordless handsets during a landline
(TEL) call and is not operable on the base.
Note: Remember that with Barge-In activated, privacy may be
compromised. Any registered handset can join the call, but
there is no indication that another handset joined the call.

The FCC Wants You To Know
Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved
by Waxess, or operation of this product in any way other than as
detailed by the owner's manual, could void your authority to
operate this product. our telephone complies with Part 68 of FCC
Rules. You must, upon request, provide the FCC registration
number and the REN to your telephone company. Both numbers
are on the base unit.
Note: You must not connect your phone to:
• coin-operated systems
• most electronic key telephone systems
This device complies with Part 15, 22 (800 MHz CDMA), 24 (1900
MHz CDMA), and 68 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 phone.
To insure the safety of users, the FCC has established criteria for
the amount of radio frequency energy various products may
produce depending on their intended usage. This product has
been tested and found to comply with the FCC's exposure criteria.
For body worn operation, the FCC RF exposure guidelines were
also met when used with the accessories supplied or designed for
this product. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance
with FCC RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
Range
Your new phone is designed to achieve the maximum possible
range by transmitting and receiving according to the highest
specifications set forth by the FCC. We have rated this phone to
operate at a maximum distance with the qualification that the
range depends upon the environment in which the telephone is
used. Many factors limit range, and it would be impossible to
include all the variables in our rating. The Maximum Range rating
of this phone is meant to be used as a means of comparison
against other range claims.
![](/img.php?id=535036&img=bg12.png)
D Mode CT 39 Copyright © 2005 Waxess
Telephone Line Problems
The FCC has granted the telephone company the right to
disconnect service in the event that your phone causes problems
on the telephone line. Also, the telephone company may make
changes in facilities and services which may affect the operation
of your unit. However, your telephone company must give
adequate notice in writing prior to such actions to allow you time
for making necessary arrangements to continue uninterrupted
service. If you are having trouble with your telephone service,
you must first disconnect your phone to determine if it is the
cause of your problem. If you determine that it is the cause, you
must leave it disconnected until the trouble has been corrected.
Radio Interference
Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and humming
in your cordless handset, or clicking noises in the base. This
interference is caused by external sources such as TV,
refrigerator, vacuum cleaner, fluorescent lighting, or electrical
storm. Your unit is NOT DEFECTIVE. If these noises continue and
are too distracting, please check around your home to see what
appliances may be causing the problem. In addition, we
recommend that the base not be plugged into a circuit that also
powers a major appliance because of the potential for
interference. Be certain that the antenna on the unit is fully
extended when needed. In the unlikely event that you
consistently hear other voices or distracting transmissions on
your phone, you may be receiving radio signals from another
cordless telephone or other source of interference. If you cannot
eliminate this type of interference, you need to change to a
different channel. Finally, it should be noted that some cordless
telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to
nearby TVs 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 or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the
cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often
reduce or eliminate the interference.

D mode CT 40 Copyright © 2005 Waxess
More than One Cordless Telephone
If you want to use more than one cordless telephone in your
home, they must operate on different channels. Press the channel
key to select a channel that provides the clearest communication.
Cordless Telephone Privacy
Cordless telephones are radio devices. Communications between
the handset and base of your cordless telephone are
accomplished by means of radio waves which are broadcast over
the open airways. Because of the inherent physical properties of
radio waves, your communications can be received by radio
receiving devices other than your own cordless telephone unit.
Consequently, any communications using your cordless
telephone may not be private.
Installation Considerations
SELECTING A LOCATION
Before choosing a location for your new phone, there are some
important guidelines you should consider:
• The location should be close to both a phone jack and
continuous power outlet. (A continuous power outlet is an AC
outlet which does not have a switch to interrupt its power.)
• Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical
noise such as motors or fluorescent lighting.
• Be sure there is sufficient space to fully extend the base
antenna.
• The base can be placed on a desk or tabletop or mounted on a
standard telephone wall plate.
• You should charge your new phone for 12–15 hours before
completing the installation or using the handset.

Most phone equipment available now uses modular jacks. Phone
cords are fitted with a molded plastic connector which plugs into
this type of jack. If you do not have modular phone jacks, contact
your local telephone company for information about their
installation.
Hardwired Jack
Some equipment is wired directly to a phone jack, and these
types of installations require a modular jack converter. This type
of installation is not difficult; however, you should contact your
telephone dealer or a telephone supply store for advice about the
proper adapter or converter for your particular situation.
Connecting the Telephone Cords
Consider these safety guidelines before connecting the telephone
cords:
Caution:
• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
• Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless
the telephone line has been disconnected.
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Applying Power to the base
This phone requires an AC outlet, without a switch to interrupt
power, and the included AC adapter. To relieve strain on the DC
plug when the phone is placed on a desk or table, wrap the power
cord around the strain relief notch on the bottom of the base.
Note: Place the power cord so that it does not create a trip
hazard, or where it could become chafed and create a fire
or other electrical hazards.
