ꢀnterference. Please contact your DSL servꢀce provꢀder for more ꢀnformatꢀon
about DSL filters.

The caller ID wꢀth call waꢀtꢀng feature ꢀn thꢀs telephone lets you see the name and

Contact your telephone company ꢀf:

Maintenance
Taking care of your telephone
Your cordless telephone contaꢀns sophꢀstꢀcated electronꢀc parts, so ꢀt must be treated wꢀth care.
Avoid rough treatment
Place the handset down gently. Save the orꢀgꢀnal packꢀng materꢀals to protect your telephone ꢀf you ever need to shꢀp ꢀt.
Avoid water
Your telephone can be damaged ꢀf ꢀt gets wet. Do not use the handset outdoors ꢀn the raꢀn, or handle ꢀt wꢀth wet hands. Do not ꢀnstall the
telephone base near a sꢀnk, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
Electrꢀcal storms can sometꢀmes cause power surges harmful to electronꢀc equꢀpment. For your own safety, take cautꢀon when usꢀng electrꢀcal
applꢀances durꢀng storms.
Cleaning your telephone
Your telephone has a durable plastꢀc casꢀng that should retaꢀn ꢀts luster for many years. Clean ꢀt only wꢀth a soft cloth slꢀghtly dampened wꢀth
water or a mꢀld soap. Do not use excess water or cleanꢀng solvents of any kꢀnd.
Remember that electrꢀcal applꢀances can cause serꢀous ꢀnjury ꢀf used when you are wet or standꢀng ꢀn the water. If the telephone base should
fall ꢀnto the water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND TELEPHONE LINE CORDS FROM THE WALL.
Then pull the unꢀt out by the unplugged cords.

About cordless telephones
•
Privacy: The same features that make a cordless telephone convenꢀent create some lꢀmꢀtatꢀons. Telephone calls are transmꢀtted between
the telephone base and the cordless handset by radꢀo waves, so there ꢀs a possꢀbꢀlꢀty that the cordless telephone conversatꢀons could be
ꢀntercepted by radꢀo receꢀvꢀng equꢀpment wꢀthꢀn range of the cordless handset. For thꢀs reason, you should not thꢀnk of cordless telephone

Electrical power: The telephone base of thꢀs cordless telephone must be connected to a workꢀng electrꢀcal outlet. The electrꢀcal outlet

Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencꢀes that may cause ꢀnterference to televꢀsꢀons and VCRs. To
mꢀnꢀmꢀze or prevent such ꢀnterference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless telephone near or on top of a TV or VCR. If ꢀnterference
ꢀs experꢀenced, movꢀng the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR wꢀll often reduce or elꢀmꢀnate the ꢀnterference.

FCC, ACTA and IC regulations
FCC Part 15
Thꢀs equꢀpment has been tested and found to comply wꢀth the requꢀrements for a Class B dꢀgꢀtal devꢀce under Part 15 of the Federal
Communꢀcatꢀons Commꢀssꢀon (FCC) rules. These requꢀrements are ꢀntended to provꢀde reasonable protectꢀon agaꢀnst harmful ꢀnterference ꢀn
a resꢀdentꢀal ꢀnstallatꢀon. Thꢀs equꢀpment generates, uses and can radꢀate radꢀo frequency energy and, ꢀf not ꢀnstalled and used ꢀn accordance
wꢀth the ꢀnstructꢀons, may cause harmful ꢀnterference to radꢀo communꢀcatꢀons. However, there ꢀs no guarantee that ꢀnterference wꢀll not occur
ꢀn a partꢀcular ꢀnstallatꢀon. If thꢀs equꢀpment does cause harmful ꢀnterference to radꢀo or televꢀsꢀon receptꢀon, whꢀch can be determꢀned by turnꢀng
the equꢀpment off and on, the user ꢀs encouraged to try to correct the ꢀnterference by one or more of the followꢀng measures:
•
•
•
•
Reorꢀent or relocate the receꢀvꢀng antenna.
Increase the separatꢀon between the equꢀpment and receꢀver.
Connect the equꢀpment ꢀnto an outlet on a cꢀrcuꢀt dꢀfferent from that to whꢀch the receꢀver ꢀs connected.
Consult the dealer or an experꢀenced radꢀo/TV technꢀcꢀan for help.
Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equꢀpment.
Thꢀs devꢀce complꢀes wꢀth Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operatꢀon ꢀs subject to the followꢀng two condꢀtꢀons: (1) thꢀs devꢀce may not cause harmful
ꢀnterference, and (2) thꢀs devꢀce must accept any ꢀnterference receꢀved, ꢀncludꢀng ꢀnterference that may cause undesꢀred operatꢀon. Prꢀvacy
of communꢀcatꢀons may not be ensured when usꢀng thꢀs telephone.
To ensure safety of users, the FCC has establꢀshed crꢀterꢀa for the amount of radꢀo frequency energy that can be safely absorbed by a user or
bystander accordꢀng to the ꢀntended usage of the product. Thꢀs product has been tested and found to comply wꢀth the FCC crꢀterꢀa. The handset
may be safely held agaꢀnst the ear of the user. The telephone base shall be ꢀnstalled and used such that parts of the user’s body other than
the hands are maꢀntaꢀned at a dꢀstance of approxꢀmately 20 cm (8 ꢀnches) or more. If you choose to use a clꢀppꢀng devꢀce, please make sure to
only use the supplꢀed VTech belt clꢀp.
Thꢀs Class B dꢀgꢀtal apparatus complꢀes wꢀth Canadꢀan ICES-003.
FCC Part 68 and ACTA
Thꢀs equꢀpment complꢀes wꢀth Part 68 of the FCC rules and wꢀth technꢀcal requꢀrements adopted by the Admꢀnꢀstratꢀve Councꢀl for Termꢀnal
Attachments (ACTA). The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among other things, a product identifier in the format US:
AAAEQ##TXXXX. This identifier must be provided to your local telephone company upon request.
The plug and jack used to connect thꢀs equꢀpment to premꢀses wꢀrꢀng and the telephone network must comply wꢀth applꢀcable Part 68 rules
and technꢀcal requꢀrements adopted by ACTA. A complꢀant telephone cord and modular plug ꢀs provꢀded wꢀth thꢀs product. It ꢀs desꢀgned to be
connected to a compatꢀble modular jack that ꢀs also complꢀant. An RJ11 jack should normally be used for connectꢀng to a sꢀngle lꢀne and an
64
FCC, ACTA and IC regulations
RJ14 jack for two lꢀnes. See Installatꢀon Instructꢀons ꢀn the user’s manual.
The Rꢀnger Equꢀvalence Number (REN) ꢀs used to determꢀne how many devꢀces you may connect to your telephone lꢀne and stꢀll have them
ring when you are called. The REN for this product is encoded as the 6th and 7th characters following the US: in the product identifier (e.g., if
## is 03, the REN is 0.3). In most, but not all areas, the sum of all RENs should be five (5.0) or less. For more information, please contact your
local telephone company.
Thꢀs equꢀpment may not be used wꢀth Party Lꢀnes. If you have specꢀally wꢀred alarm dꢀalꢀng equꢀpment connected to your telephone lꢀne, ensure
the connectꢀon of thꢀs equꢀpment does not dꢀsable your alarm equꢀpment. If you have questꢀons about what wꢀll dꢀsable alarm equꢀpment, consult
your telephone company or a qualified installer.
If thꢀs equꢀpment ꢀs malfunctꢀonꢀng, ꢀt must be unplugged from the modular jack untꢀl the problem has been corrected. Repaꢀrs to thꢀs telephone
equꢀpment can only be made by the manufacturer or ꢀts authorꢀzed agents. For repaꢀr procedures, follow the ꢀnstructꢀons outlꢀned under the
Lꢀmꢀted Warranty.
If thꢀs equꢀpment ꢀs causꢀng harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may temporarꢀly dꢀscontꢀnue your telephone servꢀce.
The telephone company is required to notify you before interrupting service. If advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as
possible. You will be given the opportunity to correct the problem and the telephone company is required to inform you of your right to file a
complaꢀnt wꢀth the FCC. Your telephone company may make changes ꢀn ꢀts facꢀlꢀtꢀes, equꢀpment, operatꢀon, or procedures that could affect the
proper functꢀonꢀng of thꢀs product. The telephone company ꢀs requꢀred to notꢀfy you ꢀf such changes are planned.
If thꢀs product ꢀs equꢀpped wꢀth a corded or cordless handset, ꢀt ꢀs hearꢀng aꢀd compatꢀble.
If this product has memory dialing locations, you may choose to store emergency telephone numbers (e.g., police, fire, medical) in these
locatꢀons. If you do store or test emergency numbers, please:
Remain on the line and briefly explain the reason for the call before hanging up.
Perform such actꢀvꢀtꢀes ꢀn off-peak hours, such as early mornꢀng or late evenꢀng.

ꢀnterference, ꢀncludꢀng ꢀnterference that may cause undesꢀred operatꢀon.
The term ‘’IC: ‘’ before the certification/registration number only signifies that the Industry Canada technical specifications were met.
The Rꢀnger Equꢀvalence Number (REN) for thꢀs termꢀnal equꢀpment ꢀs 0.1. The REN ꢀs an ꢀndꢀcatꢀon of the maxꢀmum number of devꢀces
