Answering system operation
Answering system and voicemail
Your telephone has both a digital answering system and voicemail indication. Most telephone companies offer voicemail service (fees may apply). Your telephones answering system and voicemail indication are independent features, and each alerts you to new messages differently. For more information on the voicemail indicators, see page 10. To listen to your voicemail, follow the instructions provided by your voicemail service provider. To listen to messages recorded on your digital answering system, see page 31. If you subscribe to a voicemail service through your telephone service provider, you can use your telephone answering system and voicemail together. If you are on a call, or the answering system is busy and you receive another call, the second caller can leave a voicemail message. Set your answering system to answer calls at least two rings earlier than your voicemail is set to answer. For example, set your voicemail to answer calls after six rings and set your answering system to answer after four rings.
Some telephone companies program the delay before answering calls in seconds instead of rings; in this case, allow six seconds per ring when determining the appropriate setting.

If the other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in the wiring or local service. Contact the local telephone company (charges might apply).
I hear other calls when using the telephone.
Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack. Plug in a different telephone. If you still hear other calls, the problem is probably in the wiring or local service. Call your local telephone company.
I hear noise on the cordless handset and the keys do not work.
Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged in securely.
My caller ID features are not working properly.
Caller ID is a subscription service. You must subscribe to this service from your local telephone company for this feature to work on your telephone. The caller might not be calling from an area which supports caller ID. Both you and the callers telephone companies must use equipment compatible with the caller ID service. The caller ID information shows after the first or second ring. 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. The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters.

The telephone does not receive caller ID or the telephone does not show caller ID during call waiting.

Operating range
This cordless telephone operates with the maximum power allowed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Even so, this handset and telephone base can communicate over only a certain distance - which can vary with the locations of the telephone base and handset, the weather, and the layout of your home or office. When the handset is out of range, the handset displays CONNECTING. If there is a call while the handset is out of range, it might not ring, or if it does ring, the call might not connect well when you press /FLASH. Move closer to the telephone base, then press /FLASH to answer the call. If the handset moves out of range during a telephone conversation, there might be interference. To improve reception, move closer to the telephone base.

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 outdoors 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 electrical 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 the water. If the telephone base should fall into the water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND TELEPHONE LINE CORD FROM THE WALL. Then remove the telephone by the unplugged cords.
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 cordless handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that the 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. The electrical outlet should not be controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the cordless handset if the telephone base is unplugged or switched off, or if the electrical power is interrupted. Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to televisions 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 often reduces or eliminates the interference. Rechargeable batteries: Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to create a short circuit with conducting 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 the battery. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury.

Please retain your original sales receipt as proof of purchase.
