Installation
If you have trouble replacing the battery
pack, take the phone to your local Ra-
dioShack store for assistance.
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
Your phone comes set for tone dialing. If you
have pulse service, you need to change the
dialing mode. If you are not sure which type
of service you have, do this test.
Press
SPEAKER
and listen for a dial tone.
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 either.
If the dial tone stops, you have touch-tone
service. If the dial tone continues, you have
pulse service.
To set the dial mode, press
SPEAKER
to
hang up the phone if necessary, then hold
down
FLASH
on the base until the phone
beeps and
