THE FCC WANTS YOU TO 

KNOW

In the unlikely event that your phone causes

problems on the phone line, the phone com-

pany can temporarily discontinue your ser-

vice. 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 proce-

dures 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 interrup-

tion of your telephone service.

Your phone might cause TV or radio interfer-

ence even when it is operating properly. To

determine whether your phone is causing the

interference, turn off your phone. If the inter-

ference goes away, your phone is causing it.

Try to eliminate the interference by:

• moving your phone away from the

receiver

• connecting your phone to an AC outlet

that is on a different electrical circuit

from the receiver contacting your local

RadioShack store for help

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the

FCC requires that you stop using your

phone.

Some cordless telephones operate on fre-

quencies that might cause interference to

nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize

or prevent such interference, the base of the

cordless telephone should not be placed

near or on top of a TV or VCR.

LIGHTNING

Your telephone has built-in protection circuits

to reduce the risk of damage from surges in

telephone line and power line current. These

protection circuits meet or exceed the FCC

requirements. However, lightning striking the

telephone or power lines can damage your

telephone.

Lightning damage is not common. Neverthe-

less, if you live in an area that has severe

electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug

your phone when storms approach to reduce

the possibility of damage.

Your RadioShack 2.4 GHz Cordless Speak-

erphone combines a 2.4 GHz digital cordless

telephone unit and a digital TAD (Telephone

Answering Device). The 2.4 GHz band

means less interference, clearer sound, and

greater range than other types of cordless

telephones.

The TAD stores up to 18 minutes of messag-

es on a computer chip and records each

message’s day and time. This gives you ad-

vanced capabilities over tape-based answer-

ing machines:

• 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 an optional pocket

tone dialer).
