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.
Receive two separate calls
1When a call comes in–for example, a landline
(TEL) call, answer it normally. In this example,
use the corded handset on the base. See
“Answer a landline call” on page 26.
2If a cellular (CEL) call comes in, use a cordless
handset and press CEL to answer it.

Remember that the corded handset and the
speakerphone on the base cannot be used at the
same time.
Call waiting with two calls
1While a call is in progress (as in the above
example) and the landline (TEL) receives
another call, Call waiting appears in the display
and any other cordless handsets not in use will
ring.
2To answer the call, press FLASH/DEL on the base,
or TEL on any handset not in use.
If the new call comes in on a different line,
press the appropriate key (CEL or TEL)
regardless of whether you are using the base or
a handset.
•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.

Important Electrical
Considerations
Unplug all electrical appliances when you know an
electrical storm is approaching. Lightning can pass
through your household wiring and damage any
device connected to it. This phone is no exception.
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 (850 MHz
GSM), 24 (1900 MHz GSM), 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.

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.
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.

D Mode CT User Guide 68 Copyright © 2007 Waxess
5
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.
Telephone Line Outlets
There are two types of phone outlets:
Modular Jack
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.
