Installation and configuration Handset installation Handset charger installation Plug the smaller power adapter into the power port on the bottom of the charger. Route the cord through the slots and plug the other end into the electrical outlet as shown below. Make sure the electrical outlet is not controlled by a wall switch. The power adapters for the handset charger and the telephone base are different. The power adapter for the handset charger is the smaller adapter. Use only the AC power adapter supplied with this telephone. This power adapter is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor mount position. Installation and configuration Install handset battery Step 1: Align the two holes of the battery plug with the socket pins in the handset battery compartment, matching the red and black wires of the color-coded label. Step 2: Place the battery in the compartment with the wires in the bottom left corner. Step 3: Position the battery compartment cover and slide it up until it clicks into place. Charge handset battery After battery installation, there may be enough power for some short calls. For optimal performance, we recommend that you place the handset in the charger and allow the battery to charge for 16 hours before use. The CHARGE light on the handset charger will be lit to indicate that the handset is charging. You can keep the battery charged by returning the handset to the charger after each use. When the battery power is completely depleted, a full recharge takes about 16 hours. If the handset will not be used for a long period, remove the battery to prevent possible leakage. After the battery is fully charged, you can expect the following performance:

Operation While in use (handset/headset) While in use (Speakerphone) While in use (Internet browsing) While not in use (standby*)

* Handset is off the charger but not in use.

# The operation time in standby mode will decrease to approximately 50 hours if the keypad is blinking to indicate you have new voicemail. The battery needs charging when:

Do not open or mutilate the battery(ies). Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause burns or injury to the eyes or skin. The electrolyte may be toxic if swallowed. 4. Exercise care in handling battery(ies) in order not to create a short circuit with conductive materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery and/or conductor may overheat and cause burns. 5. Charge the battery(ies) provided with or identified for use with this product only in accordance with the instructions and limitations specified in this manual. WARNING: TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARD, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO WATER OR ANY TYPE OF MOISTURE. If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (Digital Subscriber Line - DSL) through your telephone lines, you must have a DSL filter between the telephone base and the telephone wall jack. The filter will prevent noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters. Telephone base installation To install the telephone base:

Do NOT plug in the telephone base until you are instructed to do so. Before connecting the telephone base to the broadband router, make sure the routers DHCP server is enabled. Typically, the DHCP server is enabled by default. Refer to your routers documentation for details on configuring this feature. Step 1: Install telephone line Plug one end of the telephone line cord into the telephone line jack on the back of the telephone base. Then plug the other end of the cord into a telephone outlet. If you have DSL, you must install a DSL filter between the telephone line cord and the wall jack. Contact your DSL provider for more information on DSL filters and telephone line interference. Step 2: Install ethernet cable Using the yellow ethernet cable provided, connect one end into the port labeled INTERNET, located on the back of the telephone base. Connect the other end into an available LAN port on your broadband router. Step 3: Turn power on Plug the telephone base power adapter into the power port located on the back of the telephone base and the other end into an electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch. This turns the telephone on. Do NOT interrupt the telephone installation process by unplugging the power adapter or by using the handsets until the POWER, INFO and INTERNET indicator lights on the front of telephone base have changed to solid. Step 4: Check diagnostic lights The POWER light should be solid indicating the power is on. The INTERNET light should be solid indicating a good physical connection between the telephone base and router. The INFO light should be solid indicating that the telephone system is able to access data services on the Internet. If you have problems getting the telephone installed properly, first verify that you have the device physically installed correctly. Then try rebooting the telephone base by unplugging the power and plugging it back in after few seconds. Some routers require modifications to their firewall settings to allow the telephone to access Internet content. In this case, we recommend that you forward TCP port 5060 to the IP address of the telephone, or configure it as the DMZ host. To find the IP address of the telephone, check the DHCP log for your router. For detailed information on checking DHCP logs, setting up port forwarding, or DMZ host configuration, refer to your routers documentation or call the manufacturer for help. If you continue to have problems, refer to the Troubleshooting section on page 92 for additional information relating to setup.

Telephone calls are transmitted between the base and the cordless handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that your 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 father away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference. (Applies to 25 channel cordless telephones only).

Caller ID operation Caller ID operation Information about caller ID with call waiting This product has a caller ID function with call waiting feature which works with service from your local telephone company. Caller ID with call waiting lets you see the name and telephone number of the caller before answering the telephone, even while on another call. It may be necessary to change your telephone service to use this feature. Contact your telephone company if:

You have both caller ID and call waiting, but as separate services (you may need combined serv-

ice). You have only caller ID service, or only call wait-

ing service. You do not have any caller ID or call waiting services. This product can be used with regular caller ID service, or this products other features can be used without subscribing to either caller ID or combined caller ID with call waiting service. There are fees for caller ID services. In addition, services may not be available in all areas. Depending on your service, you may see the callers number or the callers name and number. This product can provide information only if both you and the caller are in areas offering caller ID service and if both telephone companies use compatible equipment. The time and date are sent by the telephone company along with the call information. NOTE: Caller ID features will work only if both you and the caller are in areas offering caller ID service, and if both tele-

phone companies use compatible equipment. 28

Caller ID operation Caller ID operation How the call log works Information about the last 50 incoming calls is stored in the call log. You can review the call log to find out who has called, easily return the call, or copy the callers name and number into your directory. When the call log is full, the oldest entry is deleted to make room for new incoming call information. If you answer a call before the information appears on the screen, it will not be saved in the call log. The call log is stored in the telephone base, and is shared by all handsets. Changes made at any one handset will be reflected in all. NOTE: Only one handset can review the caller ID log or directory at a time. If another handset attempts to enter the directory or caller ID log, it will display NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. Callers name

Caller ID operation Caller ID operation Memory match If the incoming telephone number exactly match-

es a telephone number in your directory, the name that appears on the screen will match the corresponding name in your directory. For example, if Christine Smith calls, her name will appear as Chris if this is how you entered it into your directory. NOTE: The number shown by your caller ID will be in the format sent by the phone company. The phone company usually delivers ten-digit phone numbers (area code plus phone number). If the telephone number of the person calling does not exactly match a number in your directory, the name will appear as delivered by the phone company. For example if the phone company includes the area code and the directory number does not, the name will appear as delivered by the phone company. Missed calls indicator When a handset is in idle mode and has calls that have not been reviewed, its screen will show XX MISSED CALLS. All entries which have not been reviewed will be counted as missed calls when the phone is idle. Each time a call log entry marked NEW is reviewed, the number of missed calls decreases by one. If you have too many missed calls and you do not want to review them one by one, but you still want to keep them in the call log, you can press and hold OFF/CLEAR for four seconds when the handset is idle. All the entries in the caller ID log will be consid-

ered old (have been reviewed), and the missed calls counter is reset to 0. 30

Telephone calls are transmitted between the telephone base and the handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that your cordless phone conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless handset. For this reason, you should not think of cord-

less phone conversations as being as private as those on corded phones. 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 handset if the telephone base is unplugged or switched off, or if the electrical power is interrupted. Power adapter: The power adapter is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor mount position. The prongs are not designed to hold the plug in place if it is plugged into a ceiling or an under-the-table/cabinet outlet. Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to TVs 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 will often reduce or eliminate the interference. Rechargeable batteries: This product contains either Nickel-Cadmium or Nickel-Metal Hydride rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the battery with conducting material such as rings, brace-

lets, and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and cause harm. Observe proper polarity between the battery and the battery charger. Nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries: Must be recycled or disposed of properly. Do not dispose of in household garbage. Do not burn or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury. Nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries: Dispose of these batteries in a safe manner. Do not burn or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury. The RBRC Seal means that the manufacturer is voluntarily participating in an indus-

try program to collect and recycle Nickel-metal rechargeable batteries when taken out of service within the United States. These batteries may be taken to a participat-

ing local retailer of replacement batteries or recycling center. Or you may call 1 (800) 8 BATTERY for locations accepting spent nickel-metal Batteries. 54 Appendix Important safety instructions Precautions for users of implanted cardiac pacemakers Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to 900 MHz digital cordless telephones):

Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR), an independent research entity, led a multidisciplinary evaluation of the interference between portable wireless telephones and implanted cardiac pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, WTR had recommended to physicians that:

Pacemaker patients Should keep wireless phones at least six inches from the pacemaker. Should NOT place wireless phones directly over the pacemaker, such as in a breast pocket, when it is turned ON. Should use the wireless phone at the ear opposite the pacemaker. WTRs evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from other persons using wireless phones. Especially about telephones answering systems Two-way Recording: This unit does not sound warning beeps to let the other party know that the call is being recorded.
