Troubleshooting
If your telephone is not operating prop-
erly, check these items:
• Is the phone properly connected?
• Is T/P set correctly?
• This phone might not operate when
another phone is in use on the same
line (especially in areas with low
telephone voltage). If the tele-
phone’s volume drops or you hear
unusual sounds, check to see if
another phone on the same line is
off hook. Hang up the other phones
to correct the problem.
• When the party on the phone cannot
hear you, but you can hear them,
check the PRIVACY indicator. If the
light is on, press
PRIVACY so it is off.
If you still have problems, disconnect the
phone. If other phones on the same line
work properly, the fault is in this phone
or its installation. If you cannot find the
problem, take your phone to your local
RadioShack store for assistance.

Care and Maintenance
To enjoy your telephone for a long time:
• Keep the telephone dry. If it gets
wet, wipe it dry immediately.
• Use and store the telephone only in
normal temperature environments.
• Handle the telephone gently and
carefully. Don’t drop it.
• Keep the telephone away from dust
and dirt.
• Wipe the telephone with a damp
cloth occasionally to keep it looking
new.
Modifying or tampering with the tele-
phone’s internal components can cause
a malfunction and invalidate its warran-
ty. If your telephone is not performing as
it should, take it to your local Ra-
dioShack store for assistance. If the
trouble is affecting the telephone lines,
the phone company can ask you to dis-
connect your telephone until you have
resolved the problem.
THE FCC WANTS YOU TO
KNOW
In the unlikely event that your telephone
causes problems on the telephone line,
the telephone company can disconnect
your service. The telephone company
attempts to notify you in advance. If ad-
vance notice is not practical, the tele-
phone company notifies you as soon as
possible and advises you of your right to
file a complaint with FCC.
Also, the telephone company can make
changes to its lines, equipment, opera-
tions, or procedures that could affect the
operation of this telephone. The tele-
