FEATURES

Your RadioShack ET-521 25-Channel Cordless Telephone offers the latest ad- vances in cordless phone technology. Its cordless operation lets you handle calls just about anywhere in your home or of- fice.

The phone can display a caller’s phone number, name (if available), and the date and time the call was received. It can store up to 99 records as provided by your local phone company to Caller ID service subscribers.

If you have Call Waiting with Caller ID, the phone displays incoming caller infor- mation for a new call when you are al- ready on the phone.

The ET-521 has these features:

Caller ID Memory Dialing — lets you select a phone number stored in Caller ID memory, then dial it with the touch of a button.

25 Channels — automatically selects a clear channel when you make or answer a call. You can also manually change channels during a call.

Headset Jack — lets you can connect an optional headset (such as Ra- dioShack Cat. No. 43-194) for hands- free convenience while you use the phone.

VIP Memory — alerts you with a distinc- tive ring when someone you have added to the VIP list calls.

20-Number Memory Dialing — lets you store 20 numbers in memory for easy di- aling.

Review Scrolling — lets you easily scroll through all information stored in the ET-521’s Caller ID memory.

Phone Information Display — lets you see incoming Caller ID information and phone numbers as you dial them or re- call them from the ET-521’s memory and Caller ID records.

Trilingual Messages — lets you set the phone to display messages in English, French, or Spanish.

COM-LOK®— ensures that other cord- less phone users cannot use your phone line while the handset is on the base.

Advanced Super CCT Circuitry — pro- vides clarity comparable to that of a cord- ed phone, reduces background noise, and increases effective operating dis- tance.

Security Access-Protection Code — helps prevent other cordless phone us- ers from using your phone line while the handset is off the base.

Two-Way Intercom/Paging System — lets you send a signal from the base to the handset, or from the handset to the base, to page someone or locate the handset when it is away from the base. If someone answers, you can use the ET- 521 as an intercom.
