Radio Shack ET-1102 - Manual (Page 11)

• If the battery pack becomes weak
during a call, the handset beeps ev-
ery 3 seconds and
Low Battery
flashes. When this happens, you
cannot make another call on the
phone until you recharge the battery
pack.
• About once a month, fully discharge
the battery pack by keeping the
handset off the base until
Low
Battery flashes. Otherwise, the
battery pack loses its ability to fully
recharge.
• If the display is blank and the phone
does not work, recharge the battery
pack. (The battery power might be
too low to light the display.)
• If you are not going to use your
phone for an extended period of
time, disconnect the battery pack.
This increases the battery pack’s
usable life.
• The supplied battery pack should
last for about a year. When it loses
its ability to fully recharge, order a
replacement battery pack from your
local RadioShack store (see “Re-
placing the Battery Pack” on
Page 26).
SETTING THE DIALING
MODE
Set DIAL MODE on the back of the base
for the type of service you have. If you
are not sure which type you have, once
the battery pack is fully charged, do this
test.
1. Be sure DIAL MODE is set to T
(tone).
2. Lift the handset, press TALK , and
listen for a dial tone.
3. Press any number other than 0.
Note: If your phone system requires
that you dial an access code (9, for
example) before you dial an outside
number, do not dial the access code
either.
If the dial tone stops, you have
touch-tone service. Leave
DIAL
MODE set to T .
If the dial tone continues, you have
pulse service. Set
DIAL MODE to P
(pulse).
