OWNER’S MANUAL — Please read before using this equipment.
 Thank you for purchasing a RadioShack 2.4 GHz Cordless Telephone. Your phone uses 
advanced technology to give you superior audio quality and extended range. The phone’s 
Caller ID unit 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 with Caller ID, the phone shows you the incoming 
caller information, even when you are already talking on the phone.

This telephone has been tested and found to 
comply with all applicable UL and FCC 
standards.

Your phone complies with Part 68 of FCC 
Rules. You must, upon request, provide the 
FCC registration number and the REN to 
your telephone company. Both numbers are 
on the bottom of your phone.
We have designed your phone to conform to 
federal regulations, and you can connect it to 
most telephone lines. However, each phone 
(and each device, such as a telephone or 
answering machine) that you connect to the 
telephone line draws power from the 
telephone line. We refer to this power draw 
as the device's ringer equivalence number, or 
REN. The REN is on the bottom of your 
phone.

If you use more than one phone or other 
device on the line, add up all of the RENs. If 
the total is more than five (three in rural 
areas), your telephones might not ring. If 
ringer operation is impaired, remove a device 
from the line.
In the unlikely event that your phone causes 
problems on the phone line, the phone 
company can temporarily discontinue your 
service. If this happens, the phone company 
attempts to notify you in advance. If advance 
notice is not practical, the phone company 
notifies you as soon as possible and advises 
you of your right to file a complaint with the 
FCC.
Also, the phone company can make changes 
to its lines, equipment, operations, or 
procedures that could affect the operation of 
this telephone. The telephone company 
notifies you of these changes in advance, so 
you can take the necessary steps to prevent 
interruption of your telephone service.
