* First check all the suggestions above.  
* If you still don't hear a dial tone, disconnect  
the base unit from the telephone jack and  
connect a different phone. If there is no dial  
tone on that phone either, the problem is in  
your wiring or local service. Call your local  
telephone company.  
To change or replace a stored number  
in speed dial memory simply enter the  
new number and store it in the memory  
location you wish to change.  
For example, to change the number  
stored in memory position 7 to 555-1111,  
you would press PROG, 7, 555-1111,  
MEM.  
YOU HEAR OTHER CALLS WHILE  
USING YOUR PHONE.  
* Replace the handset in the base cradle,  
wait a few moments and try again.  
* Disconnect your base unit from the  
telephone jack, and plug in a regular  
telephone. If you still hear other calls, the  
problem is probably in your wiring or local  
service. Call your local telephone  
company.  
Using REDIAL  
To REDIAL the last number you called,  
press PHONE then press REDIAL. The  
phone will automatically dial the number.  
YOU GET NOISE, STATIC, OR A WEAK  
SIGNAL EVEN WHEN YOU'RE NEAR THE  
BASE UNIT.  
* Place the handset in the base momentarily  
to re-set the security code. Then press  
PHONE to get a line.  
Household appliances plugged into the same  
circuit as the base unit can sometimes cause  
interference. Try moving the appliance or the  
base unit to another outlet.  
Storing Pauses in Memory  
To insert a pause in a phone number,  
press and hold the number before the  
position where the pause is to be  
inserted. Hold the number key down  
until it beeps twice. The pause is 2  
seconds in length. For longer pauses,  
press and hold the key until it beeps  
three or four times. Each additional beep  
indicates an additional 2 second pause.  
If your phone is connected to a PBX you  
can store the PBX access number and  
a pause before the phone number. For  
example, to store 9-PAUSE-555-1234  
in memory location 8 do the following:  
Storing a Redial Number into Speed  
Dial  
To store the last number you dialed as a  
regular Speed Dial number, press  
PROG, a number key (0-9), REDIAL,  
MEM.  
YOU HEAR NOISE IN THE HANDSET,  
AND NONE OF THE KEYS OR BUTTONS

range. Try moving the base unit to the  
second or third floor, or to some other  
location.  
COMMON CURE FOR ELECTRONIC  
EQUIPMENT

If it still does not seem to respond, perform  
the following steps (in the order listed):  
1. Disconnect the power to the base.  
2. Disconnect the handset battery.  
3. Wait a few minutes.  
IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY

IC (Industry Canada)  
This telephone is registered for use in  
Canada.  
Users should ensure for their own  
protection that the electrical ground  
connections of the power utility,  
telephone lines and internal metallic  
water pipe system, if present, are  
connected together. This precaution  
may be particularly important in rural  
areas.  
This equipment complies with Parts 15 and  
68 of the Federal Communications  
Commission (FCC) rules for the United  
States. It also complies with regulations  
RSS-210 and CS-03 of Industry Canada  
(IC).  
Notice:The Industry Canada label  
identifies certified equipment.  
This certification means that the  
equipment meets certain  
telecommunications network,  
protective, operational and  
safety requirements. Industry  
Canada does not guarantee the  
equipment will operate to the  
user’s satisfaction.  
*
A label is located on the underside of the  
base unit containing either the FCC  
registration number and Ringer Equivalence  
Number (REN) or the IC registration number  
and Load Number. You must, upon request,  
provide this information to your local  
telephone company.  
Caution:Users should not attempt to  
make such connections  
themselves, but should  
contact appropriate electric  
inspection authority, or  
electrician, as appropriate.  
FCC Part 68  
The FCC requires that you connect your  
cordless telephone to the nationwide  
telephone network through a modular  
telephone jack (USOC RJ11C or RJ11W).  
Before installing this equipment, users  
should ensure that it is permissible to be  
connected to the facilities of the local  
telecommunications company.The  
equipment must also be installed using an  
acceptable method of connections. The  
customer should be aware that  
compliance with the above conditions may  
not prevent degradation of service in  
situations.  
This equipment is compatible with  
inductively coupled hearing aids.  
Your telephone company may discontinue  
your service if your equipment causes harm  
to the telephone network. They will notify you  
in advance of disconnection, if possible.  
During notification, you will be informed of  
your right to file a complaint with the FCC.  
The Load Number (LN) assigned to this  
device denotes the percentage of the  
total load to be connected to a telephone  
loop which is used by the device to  
prevent overloading. The termination on  
a loop may consist of any combination  
of devices subject only to the  
requirement that the total of the load  
numbers of all devices does not exceed  
100.  
FCC Part 15  
Warning:Changes or modifications to this  
unit not expressly approved by  
the party responsible for  
compliance could void the user's  
authority to operate the  
equipment.  
If it is determined that your telephone  
equipment is malfunctioning, the FCC  
requires that it not be used and that it be  
unplugged from the modular jack until the  
problem has been corrected. Repairs to this  
telephone equipment can only be made by  
the manufacturer or its authorized agents or  
by others who may be authorized by the FCC.  
For repair procedures, follow the instructions  
outlined under the VTECH Limited Warranty.  
Repairs to certified equipment should be  
made by an authorized Canadian  
maintenance facility designated by the  
supplier. Any repairs or alterations made  
by the user to this equipment, or  
equipment malfunctions, may give the  
telecommunications company cause to  
request the user to disconnect the  
equipment.  
The equipment has been tested and found  
to comply with part 15 of the FCC rules.  
These limits are designed to provide  
reasonable protection against harmful  
interference in a residential installation. This  
equipment generates, uses and can radiate  
radio frequency energy and, if not installed  
and used in accordance with the  
instructions, may cause harmful interference  
to radio communications. However, there is  
no guarantee that interference will not occur  
in a particular installation. If this equipment  
does cause harmful interference to radio or  
television reception, which can be  
determined by turning the equipment off and  
on, the user is encouraged to try and correct  
the interference by one or more of the  
following measures:  
This device complies with RSS-210 of  
Industry Canada. Operation is subject  
to the following two conditions: (1) this  
device may not cause interference, and  
(2) this device must accept any  
interference, including interference that  
may cause undesired operation of the  
device.  
The REN is useful in determining the number  
of devices you may connect to your  
telephone line and still enable the devices to  
ring when you receive a call. The general rule  
is that the REN value should not exceed 5.0  
total; however, contact your local telephone  
company for the specific number in your area.
