Find Handset

To locate the handset, press the 

find hs

 key on the base. The handset beeps for 60 seconds. 

The handset stops beeping when any key is pressed, when it is returned to the base, or when 

the 

find hs

 key is pressed. The handset also stops beeping when an incoming call is received.

Low Battery Alert

When the battery pack is very low and needs to be charged, the phone is programmed to 

eliminate functions in order to save power. If the phone is not in use, the 

talk/batt low

 LED 

flashes when the battery pack is low.
If the phone is in use, the 

talk/batt low

 LED flashes and the handset beeps. Complete your 

conversation as quickly as possible and return the handset to the base for charging.

NOTE:

• Even when the battery pack is not being used, it will gradually discharge over a long

period of time. For optimum performance, be sure to return the handset to the base 

unit after each telephone call.

• Dial mode setting, last number dialed and numbers stored in memory locations

are retained for up to one minute while you replace the battery pack.

Cleaning the battery charging contacts

To maintain a good charge, clean the charging contacts on the 

handset once a month.
Dampen a cloth with plain water. Gently rub the damp cloth over 

the charging contacts until all visible dirt is removed. Dry the 

contacts thoroughly before returning the handset to the base.
Caution: Do not use paint thinner, benzene, alcohol, or other 

chemical products. Doing so may discolor the surface of the 

telephone and damage the finish.

Tone Dialing Switch-over

If your telephone company requires pulse dialing, you can switch over 

to tone dialing after the call connects. This feature is useful when you 

need tone dialing to use any automated menu systems, such as 

telephone bank tellers, telephone prescription refills, customer support 

menus, etc.
If your phone is set to pulse dialing mode, make your call normally. 

Once your call connects, press the

*

/tone

 key. Any digits you enter 

from then on will be sent as tone digits. When this particular call ends, 

the phone automatically returns to pulse dialing mode.

Using the Speed Dial Memory

Storing Numbers in Speed Dial Memory

Your cordless phone can store up to ten numbers in the speed dial memory.
1) When the phone is in standby mode, press the 

memory

 key. The 

talk/batt low

 LED flashes.

2) Use the keypad to enter the phone number; each number can be up to 20 digits.
