equipment might cause TV or radio interfer-
ence even when it is operating properly. To
eliminate interference, you can try one or
more of the following corrective measures:
For the phone’s Caller ID memory dial fea-
ture to operate, you must receive the caller’s
number.
Important:
Cordless phones generally re-

quire AC power to operate. You should also
have a corded phone that does not require
AC power to operate so you can still make
and receive calls if there is an AC power fail-
ure.
• Increase the distance between the
equipment and the radio or TV.
• Use outlets on different electrical circuits
for the equipment and the radio or TV.
Consult your local RadioShack store if
the problem still exists.
Your telephone operates on standard radio
frequencies as allocated by the FCC. Even
though the access protection code prevents
unauthorized use of your phone line, it is
possible for other radio units operating on
similar frequencies within a certain area to
unintentionally intercept your conversations
or cause interference. This lack of privacy
can occur with any cordless phone.
LIGHTNING
You telephone has built-in lightning protec-
tion to reduce the risk of damage from surg-
es in telephone line and power line current.
This lightning protection meets or exceeds
FCC requirements. However, lightning strik-
ing the telephone or power lines can damage
your telephone.
CARE
Keep the phone dry; if it gets wet, wipe it dry
immediately. Use and store the phone only in
normal temperature environments. Handle
the phone carefully; do not drop it. Keep the
phone away from dust and dirt, and wipe it
with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it
looking new.
Lightning damage is not common. Neverthe-
less, if you live in an area that has severe
electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug
your phone when storms approach to reduce
the possibility of damage.
Modifying or tampering with the
’s in-

ternal components can cause a malfunction
and might invalidate its warranty and void
your FCC authorization to operate it. If your

ˆ Installation
1. Press down on the tabs on the top of the
bracket and lift the bracket from the clip
slots. Remove the bracket completely
from the lower tab slots.
MOUNTING THE PHONE
You can place the phone on a desk or table,
or mount it on a standard wall plate or direct-
ly on a wall.
2. Rotate the bracket 180°, then insert the
bracket’s tabs into the upper tab slots
and snap into place.
Select a location that is:
• near an easily accessible AC outlet
• near a telephone line jack
3. Plug the modular cord’s other end into a
modular phone line jack.
• out of the way of normal activities
4. Route the adapter and phone cords
through the strain relief slot on the
bracket if necessary.
• away from electrical machinery, electri-
cal appliances, metal walls, filing cabi-
nets, wireless intercoms, security
alarms, and room monitors
5. Plug the adapter into a standard AC out-
let.
The base’s location affects the phone’s
range. If you have a choice of several loca-
tions, try each to see which provides the best
performance.
6. Lift the base’s antenna to a vertical posi-
tion.
On a Wall Plate
Your telephone connects directly to a modu-
lar telephone line jack. If your telephone wir-
ing does not have a modular jack, you can
update the wiring yourself using jacks and
adapters (available at your local RadioShack
store), or have the telephone company up-
date the wiring for you. You must use com-
patible modular jacks that are compliant with
Part 68 of FCC Rules.
1. Route the adapter and phone cords
through the strain relief grooves on the
bottom of the bracket if necessary.
2. Plug the modular cord into the wall plate
jack, then align the bracket’s keyhole
slots with the wall plate studs and slide
the base downward to secure it.
3. Plug the adapter into a standard AC out-
let.
Note:
The USOC number of the jack to be
installed is RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall plate
jack).
4. Press up on the handset holder and
slide it out of place. Turn it upside down
so its tabbed edge faces up, then slide it
back down into its slot.
On a Desk
Follow these steps to use the supplied brack-
et (pre-installed into the lower tab slots) as a
stand when mounting the base on a desk or
table.
5. Lift the base’s antenna to a vertical posi-
tion.

Installation
3. Plug the battery pack’s connector into
the socket in the compartment (the con-
nector fits only one way), then replace
the battery pack and fasten the retainer
strap.
Directly On a Wall
For this mounting method, you need two
screws (not supplied) with heads that fit into
the keyhole slots on the bottom of the base.
1. Drill two holes 315/16 inches (100 mm)
apart. Then thread a screw into each

hole, letting the heads extend about /16
inch (4 mm) from the wall.
2. Route the modular and adapter cords
through the grooves on the bottom of
the bracket if necessary.
Notes:
• Recharge the battery pack if the handset
beeps and LOW BATTERY appears, or
if LOW BATTERY appears when the
phone is not in use.
3. Align the keyhole slots with the mount-
ing screws and slide the base downward
to secure it.
4. Plug the modular cord into a modular
phone line jack.
• If the phone does not work immediately
after charging or recharging the battery
pack, return the keypad to the base for
about 5 seconds to reset the security
access-protection code.
5. Plug the adapter into a standard AC out-
let.
6. Press up on the handset holder and
slide it out of place. Turn it upside down
so its tabbed edge faces up, then slide it
back down into its slot.
• About once a month, fully discharge the
battery pack by keeping the phone off
the base until the low battery warning
tone sounds. Otherwise, the battery
pack loses its ability to fully recharge.
7. Lift the base’s antenna to a vertical posi-
tion.
• When the handset is on the base, the
CHARGE/IN USE/MESSAGE indicator
lights even when the battery pack is not
connected. If your phone does not work,
be sure the battery pack is properly con-
nected.
CONNECTING, CHARGING,
AND REPLACING THE
BATTERY PACK
The phone comes with a rechargeable
nickel-cadmium battery pack. You must con-
nect the battery pack and charge it for at
least 12 hours before you use the phone for
the first time.
• If the CHARGE/IN USE/MESSAGE indi-
cator does not light when you place the
handset on the base, be sure the battery
pack and AC adapter are correctly and
securely connected.
1. Slide off the battery compartment cover.
• Check the charging contacts on the
handset and base. If the contacts are
dirty or tarnished, clean them with a
pencil eraser.
2. Unfasten the retainer strap and lift the
battery pack out of the compartment.
7
Installation
• If the battery pack becomes completely
discharged or the base loses power
while the handset is away from it, place
the handset on the base for about 5 sec-
onds to reset the security access protec-
tion code. If the handset loses power,
leave it on the base to charge the bat-
tery pack.
If you have trouble replacing the battery
pack, take the phone to your local
RadioShack store for assistance.
Important:
The EPA certified
RBRC® Battery Recycling Seal
on the nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd)
battery indicates RadioShack
is voluntarily participating in an

industry program to collect and recycle these
batteries at the end of their useful life, when
taken out of service in the United States or
Canada. The RBRC program provides a con-
venient alternative to placing used Ni-Cd bat-
teries into the trash or the municipal waste
stream, which may be illegal in your area.
Please call 1-800-THE-SHACK (1-800-843-
7422) for information on Ni-Cd battery recy-
cling and disposal bans/restrictions in your
area. RadioShack’s involvement in this pro-
gram is part of the company’s commitment to
preserving our environment and conserving
our natural resources.
The supplied battery pack should last about
a year. If the battery pack does not hold a
charge for more than 2 hours after overnight
charge, replace it with a new 3.6-volt, 600
mAh battery pack with a connector that fits
the socket in the battery compartment. You
can order
a
replacement battery pack
through your local RadioShack store. Install
the new battery pack, place the handset on
the base, and charge the battery for 12 hours
before using it.
Note:
To avoid losing numbers stored in
memory, you must install and begin charging
the new battery pack within 2 minutes of re-
moving the old one.
Warning:
Dispose of the old battery pack
promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury it.
Cautions:
• You must use a replacement battery
pack of the same size and type.
• Do not dispose of the battery pack in a
fire because it might explode.
• Do not open or mutilate the battery
pack.
• Be careful not to short the battery pack
by touching the connector’s pins with
conducting materials, such as rings,
bracelets, and keys. The battery pack or
conductor might overheat and burn.
