Important: The EPA certified RBRC® Battery Recycling Seal on the nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) battery indicates RadioShack is voluntarily participating in an

industry program to collect and recycle these batteries at the end of their useful life, when taken out of service in the United States or Canada. The RBRC program provides a convenient alternative to placing used Ni-Cd batteries into the trash or the municipal waste stream, which may be illegal in your area. Please call 1-800-THE-SHACK (1- 800-843-7422) for information on Ni-Cd bat- tery recycling and disposal bans/restrictions in your area. RadioShack’s involvement in this program is part of the company’s com- mitment to preserving our environment and conserving our natural resources.

SETTING THE DIALING MODE

Set PULSE-TONEon the back of the base for the type of service you have. If you are not sure which type you have, after you charge the handset battery pack, do this test.

1.Set PULSE-TONE to TONE.

2.Lift the handset, press TALK, then 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 press the access code number either.

If the dial tone stops, you have touch- tone service. Leave PULSE-TONEset to

TONE.

If the dial tone continues, you have pulse service. Set PULSE-TONEto

PULSE.

4.Press TALK or place the handset on the base to hang up.

TURNING THE BASE’S RINGER ON AND OFF

To turn off the base’s ringer, set RINGER on the back of the base to OFF. You can still make or receive calls using this phone. Tele- phones on the same line (and the answering system’s handset if it is away from the base) still ring when there is an incoming call.

To turn on the base’s ringer, set RINGER to ON.

SETTING THE HANDSET’S RINGER TONE/VOLUME

You can select one of four different ringer tone/volume settings on the handset. At any time, except during a call, repeatedly press VOL/CID 8 or 9 to select the desired ringer setting. Each time you press VOL/CID 8 or 9, the phone rings at the selected setting

and H_d][h 7 >_]^, H_d][h 7 Bem, H_d][h 8 >_]^, or H_d][h 8 Bem appears.

You can also turn off the ringer. At any time,

except during a call, press and hold VOL/CID 9until the phone beeps and 2H_d][hýE\\4 ap- pears. When you place the handset faceup on the base, 2H_d][h E\\4 appears.

You can still make or receive a call even when the ringer is turned off. When you have

an incoming call, any other phone connected to the same line rings and ?dYec_d] 9Wbb ap- pears.

To turn the ringer back on, simply press VOL/ CID 8 or 9. The ringer resets to H_d][h 7
