Congratulations! You have purchased one of the most sophisticated cordless telephones on the market! The VT 1921 has been designed to offer a new standard in cordless telephone technology.

Unlike most other cordless phones, the VT 1921 digitizes your voice using advanced ADPCM digital voice coding to provide noise and distortion free performance. In most conditions you will not be able to te!l you are using a cordless phone. Gone are the annoyances of static, interference and having to listen to other people's conversationson your cordless phone.

The VT 1921 scrambles your voice before it transmits it. This allows you the security of knowing that no one can tune in and eavesdrop on your conversations.

The VT 1921 decodes and displays name and/or number Caller ID (CID) information where available and when subscribed to. The alpha-numeric display can show both thename and number of the calling party. Up to 24 name characters or 11 phone number digits can be displayed on the LCD.

With the VT 1921, the user can easily answer a call by pressing any key otherthanthe OFF, MUTEorVOLUME Keys. In addition, the handset keypad and LCD illuminate while the handset rings to signal an incoming call. This is very useful in a dark environment. The VT 1921 also provides a one- way PageIFind. Pressing the base

PAGE key will cause the .handset to ring in a manner which distinguishes it from normal incoming ringing. This can be used to alert the handset user, or to simply locate the handset in the event that it is misplaced.

The VT 1921 uses special memory in both the base and handset which is not susceptible -to power failures. This provides permanent storage of a11 memory dial numbers, CID information as well as the base and handset security, codes.

When an optional battery pack is installed,in the base unit, the VT 1921 uses this battery pack to provide operational backup in case of power failure. In this way you have access to all normal phone functions during a total power outage. Calls can still be placed and received without interruption. Morethan 5 hours backup will be possible with a fully charged battery pack in the base unit.

The VT 1921 informs you that another extension is currently in use on the same phone line. The phone.will also alert you when you are Out of Range, even when you'renot using the phone!
