The Basics

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing your RadioShack 5.8 GHz Multi-
Handset Expandable 2-Line Corded/Cordless Telephone. Unlike
other conventional cordless telephones, your telephone supports
up to ten handsets on a single telephone line. You can add a
handset to any room in your home or office that has an AC
outlet. No more running around the house to answer the phone!
You can transfer outside calls to the base or the handset. If you
subscribe to Call Waiting with Caller ID, the phone shows you the
incoming caller information, even when you are already talking
on the phone.
The digital answering machine stores up to 12 minutes of
messages (for each line) on a computer chip and records day
and time information for each message. This gives you advanced
capabilities over tape-based answering machines:
• You can delete individual messages and save the rest.
• There are no tapes to bother with and no tape mechanisms to
wear out.
The remote operation feature lets you operate your answering
machine from a touch-tone phone (or from a rotary phone with a
pocket tone dialer).
NOTES
UP841BH_43-143_OM3.indd 7
• Corded handset does not need AC power to
operate. It allows you to make/receive calls if
there is an AC power failure.
• Cordless phones require AC power to operate.
When the power is off, you cannot make or
receive calls by using your cordless handset.
IMPORTANT
• Your phone operates on standard radio
frequencies as allocated by the FCC.
• It is possible for other radio units operating
nearby on similar frequencies to unintentionally
intercept your conversation or cause interference.
This possible lack of privacy can occur with any
cordless phone.
