Radio Shack 43-3815/43-3898 owner manual Important Safety Instructions, Introduction

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing a RadioShack 2.4 GHz Multi-Handset Expandable Cordless Telephone. Unlike other conventional cordless telephones, your telephone supports up to eight handsets on a single telephone line. You can add a handset to any room in your home or office that has an AC outlet. No more running to the other end of the house to answer the phone! You can transfer outside calls to other handsets. If you subscribe to Call Waiting with Caller ID, the Caller ID (CID) lets you see who’s calling before you answer the phone, even when you are already talking on the phone. !

The digital answering system provides clear, reliable messaging with call screening, day/time stamp, call counter, remote access, and instant skip or replay messaging.

Before using your phone, be sure to carefully peel the protective film off the handset’s display window.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to persons, including the following.

1.Read and understand all instructions.

2.Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.

3.Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

! IMPORTANT !

Cordless phones require AC power to operate. When the power is off, you cannot make or receive calls using your phone. To be safe, you should also have a corded phone that does not require AC power to operate (not a cordless phone), so you can still make and receive calls if there is an AC power failure.
