Features
Your RadioShack 900 MHz Digital Spread
Spectrum Cordless Phone uses advanced
technology for superior audio quality and ex-
tended range. Caller ID records each caller’s
telephone number (and name, if available in
your area) and the date and time of the call,
as provided by your local phone company to
Caller ID service subscribers.
If you subscribe to Call Waiting and Caller
ID, the phone can show you the incoming
caller information, even when you are al-
ready talking on the phone.
The phone’s features include:
Spread Spectrum Technology — spreads
the signal across several frequencies, pro-
viding additional security for your phone con-
versations.
Caller ID/Call Waiting Deluxe — gives you
several options for handling waiting callers
(you must subscribe to the Call Waiting Op-
tions Service through your phone company
to use this feature).
20 Number Memory Dialing — lets you
store up to 20 numbers in memory for easy
dialing.
Headset Jack — for optional hands-free use
with a headset (available at your local
RadioShack store).
Security Access-Protection Code — helps
prevent other cordless phone users from us-
ing your phone line while the handset is off
the base.
3-Number Redial — lets you quickly redial
any of the last three numbers dialed.
Auto Talk — you can set the phone so you
can answer a call simply by lifting the hand-
set from the base.
Any-Key Answer — you can set the phone
so you can press any key to answer a call
when the handset is away from the base.
Hearing-Aid Compatibility — lets you use
your phone with hearing aids that have a T
(telephone) switch.
The Telephone Answering Device (TAD)
stores up to 20 minutes of messages on a
computer chip and records each message’s
day and time. This gives you advanced ca-
pabilities over tape-based answering ma-
chines:
• You can delete individual messages and
save the rest.
• There are no tapes to bother with and no
tape mechanisms to wear out.
The remote operation feature lets you oper-
ate your TAD from a touch-tone phone or
from a rotary phone with a pocket tone dialer.
The TAD’s features include:
Phone Pick-Up Detection — stops record-
ing when you pick up any phone on the same
line as the TAD, and resets to answer the
next call.
Voice-Prompted Menu Setting — lets you
set the TAD’s various functions through the
voice guidance.
Programmable Security Code — you can
set a two-digit security code to secure re-
mote operation.
3 Mail Boxes — you can select a mail box
so you can record your message from re-
mote location.
