harmful interference to radio communications.  
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not  
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does  
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,  
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and  
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference  
by one or more of the following measures:  
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Your telephone has built-in protection circuits to reduce the  
risk of damage from surges in telephone line and power line  
current. These protection circuits meet or exceed the FCC  
requirements. However, lightning striking the telephone or  
power lines can damage your telephone.  
Lightning damage is not common. Nevertheless, if you live  
in an area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that  
you unplug your phone when storms approach to reduce the  
possibility of damage.

Your phone requires four AA batteries (not supplied) for  
power. For the best performance and longest life, we  
recommend RadioShack alkaline batteries..

Use only fresh batteries of the  
required size and  
recommended type.  
1. Use a flat-blade screwdriver to lift the battery  
compartment door.  
If you do not plan to use the  
phone for two weeks or longer,  
remove the batteries. Batteries  
can leak chemicals that can  
destroy electronic parts.  
2. Insert four AA batteries into the compartment as  
indicated by the polarity symbols.  
3. Snap the battery compartment door back into place.  
When ùappears on the display or the display dims,

line jack. If your telephone wiring does not have a modular  
jack, you can update the wiring yourself using jacks and
