Interference Information
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following 
two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference; and (2) This device 
must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired 
operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B 
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide 
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not 
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference 
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur 
in a particular installation.

If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which 
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to 
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna (that is, the antenna for radio or television 
that is “receiving” the interference).
• Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the telecommunications 
equipment and receiving antenna.
• Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from 
that to which the receiving antenna is connected.
If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult your dealer or an 
experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. Also, the Federal 
Communications Commission has prepared a helpful booklet, “How To Identify and 
Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is available from the U.S. 
Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Please specify stock number 004-

Installation 
Digital Security System
Your cordless phone uses a digital security system to protect against false ringing, 
unauthorized access, and charges to your phone line.
INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate at 
frequencies that may cause or receive interference with nearby 
TVs, microwave ovens, 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, microwave ovens, or VCR. If such interference 
continues, move the cordless telephone farther away from these 
appliances.
Certain other communications devices may also use the 1.9 GHz 
frequency for communication, and, if not properly set, these 
devices may interfere with each other and/or your new telephone. 
If you are concerned with interference, please refer to the owner’s 
manual for these devices on how to properly set channels to avoid 
interference. Typical devices that may use the 1.9 GHz frequency 
for communication include wireless audio/video senders, wireless 
computer networks, multi-handset cordless telephone systems, and 
some long-range cordless telephone systems.
Important Installation Guidelines
•  Avoid sources of noise and heat, such as motors, fluorescent lighting, 
microwave ovens, heating appliances and direct sunlight.

designed for wet locations.
•  Never touch non-insulated telephone wires or terminals, unless the telephone 
line has been disconnected at the network interface.
•  Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
