INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing a VTech cord- less telephone. This manual is designed to familiarize you with your VT 2960. To get the maximum use from your new phone, we suggest that you read this In- struction Manual before using your VT 2960.

Your VTech VT 2960 is a two line, 900MHz, digital cordless phone with

aTwo-line Digital Answering System and, Speakerphone on the Base Unit. The VT 2960 digitizes your voice us- ing advanced ADPCM digital voice coding, providing noise and distortion free performance.

The VTech VT 2960 also scrambles your voice before transmitting it be- tween the Handset and Base Unit. This minimizes the possibility of sur- veillance by scanners and similar de- vices.

Your VTech VT 2960 is Caller ID and Call Waiting-Caller ID compatible. The Handset LCD will display the name and phone number of the call- ing party, when available.

NOTE: Caller ID and Call Waiting- Caller ID are subscription services, available through most service provid- ers. Contact your local telephone serv- ice provider for subscription informa- tion.

When the VTech VT 2960 is not in use, you can easily answer a call on the Handset by pressing any key other than the OFF or Volume keys. This is very useful in a dark environment.

Your VT 2960 provides one way Pag- ing from the Base Unit to the Handset (very useful as a Handset locator), and a two way Intercom between the Hand- set and Base Unit.

The VTech VT 2960 uses a non-vola- tile memory which is not susceptible to power failures. This feature provides permanent storage of all memory dial numbers, Caller ID records, as well as the Base Unit and Handset security codes.

The optional battery pack installed in the Base Unit provides operational backup in the event of a power failure. Calls can still be placed and received without interruption. About 5 hours of backup power is available with a fully charged battery pack in the Base Unit.

Your VTech VT 2960 informs you when another phone on the same line is currently in use. The Handset will also alert you when you are Out of Range, whether or not the Handset is in use.
