AM Antenna
A built-in antenna eliminates the need for an outside antenna for AM reception.

FM Antenna
The power cord acts as your FM antenna. The power cord picks up moderate to
strong signals and eliminates the need for an external antenna in most strong
signal areas. Be sure the power cord is stretched to its longest length. Do not
coil or bunch the cord together. Changing position of the power cord may
improve reception.
Caller ID (CID)
Caller ID (CID) is a service available from your local telephone company. For
Caller ID to work on this system, you must subscribe to Caller ID service.

from your telephone company.

and the NEW CALL indicator comes on.
NOTE: Check with your local phone company
regarding name service availability.
Receiving and Storing CID Records

your Caller ID telephone between the first and second ring. When memory is full,
a new call automatically replaces the oldest call in memory. NEW appears in the

Troubleshooting Tips
Telephone Solutions
No Dial Tone
• Check all cabling to make sure that all connections are secure and
not damaged.
• Check the hook switch: It should fully extend from the base when
the handset is lifted from the cradle?
Phone Does Not Ring
• Make sure the ringer is turned on.
• There may be too may extension phones connected to your line. Try
disconnecting an extension phone.
• See solution for ”NO DIAL TONE. ”
Incoming and Outgoing Voice Volume Low
• Are other phones off hook at same time? If so, this is normal
condition as volume drops when additional phones are used
at once.
Caller ID Solutions
No Information is Shown After the Phone Rings
• To receive CID data, you must subscribe to Caller ID service from
your telephone company.
• Wait until the second ring before answering. CID data is received
after the 1st ring.
Error Message is Displayed
• ERROR appears in the display if the unit detects anything other
than valid Caller ID information during the silent period after the
first ring. This message indicates either the presence of noise on the
line, or that an invalid message has been sent from the telephone
company.
• Wait until the second ring before answering.
General Product Care
To keep your unit working and looking good, follow these guidelines:
• Avoid putting it near heating appliances and devices that generate
electrical noise (for example, motors or fluorescent lamps).
• DO NOT expose to direct sunlight or moisture.
• Avoid dropping answerer and/or other rough treatment.
• Clean with a soft cloth.
• Never use a strong cleaning agent or abrasive powder because this
will damage the finish.
• Retain the original packaging in case you need to ship it at a
later date.
Telephone Network Information
Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may harm the
telephone network, the telephone company, where practicable, may notify you
that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. Where prior notice
is not practicable and the circumstances warrant such action, the telephone
company may temporarily discontinue service immediately.
The telephone company may make changes in its communications facilities,
equipment, operations or procedures where such action is required in the
operation of its business. If these changes are expected to affect the use or
performance of your telephone equipment, the telephone company will likely
give you adequate notice to allow you to maintain uninterrupted service.
