Radio Shack ET-686 - Manual (Page 11)

Notes:
• When you first use the phone after
charging or recharging the battery
pack, the phone might not work and
you might hear an error tone when
you press
LINE 1 or LINE 2 . If this
happens, return the handset to the
base for about five seconds. This
resets the security access-protec-
tion code.
• If the battery pack gets weak during
a call, the handset beeps every 3
seconds and the line indicators
flash. When this happens, you can-
not make another call on the phone
until you recharge the battery pack.
• Use a pencil eraser to clean the
charging contacts on the handset
and the base about once a month.
• If the battery pack becomes com-
pletely discharged or the base loses
power while the handset is away
from it, the security code might be
lost. To reset the code, return the
handset to the base. If it was the
handset that lost power, leave the
handset on the base to charge the
battery pack.
• About once a month, fully discharge
the battery pack by keeping the
handset off the base until the low
battery indications (flashing line indi-
cators and beeping) appear. Other-
wise, the battery pack loses its
ability to fully recharge.
• The supplied battery pack should
last for about a year. When the bat-
tery pack loses its ability to fully
recharge, order a replacement bat-
tery pack at your local RadioShack
store (see “Replacing the Battery
Pack” on Page 25).
SETTING THE DIALING

Set PULSE-TONE on the back of the

you are not sure which type you have,
do this test.
