INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! You have purchased
one of the most sophisticated cordless
telephones on the market! The Sprint
cordless phone has been designed to
offer a new standard in cordless
telephone technology.
Unlike most other cordless phones, the
Sprint cordless phone digitizes your
voice using advanced ADPCM digital
voice coding to provide noise and
distortion free performance. In most
conditions you will not be able to tell
you are using a cordless phone. Gone
are the annoyances of static,
interference and having to listen to
other people's conversations on your
cordless phone.
The Sprint cordless phone scrambles
your voice before it transmits it. This
allows you the security of knowing that
no one can tune in and eavesdrop on
your conversations.
The Sprint cordless phone decodes
and displays name and/or number
Caller ID (CID) information where
available and when subscribed to. The
alpha-numeric display can show both
the name and number of the calling
party. Up to 24 name characters or 11
phone number digits can be displayed
on the LCD.
With the Sprint cordless phone, the
user can easily answer a call by
pressing any key other than the OFF,
MUTE or VOLUME Keys. In addition,
the Handset keypad and LCD illuminate
while the Handset rings to signal an
incoming call. This is very useful in a
dark enviroment. The Sprint cordless
phone also provides a one-way Page/
Find. Pressing the Base PAGE key will
cause the Handset to ring in a manner
which distinguishes it from normal
incoming ringing. This can be used to
alert the Handset user, or to simply
locate the Handset in the event that it
is misplaced.
The Sprint cordless phone uses
special memory in both the Base and
Handset which is not susceptible to
power failures.
permanent storage of all memory dial
numbers, CID information as well as
the Base and Handset security codes.
When a battery pack is installed in the
Base unit, the Sprint cordless phone
uses this battery pack to provide
operational backup in case of power
failure. In this way you have access
to all normal phone functions during a
total power outage. Calls can still be
p l a c e d a n d r e c e i v e d w i t h o u t
interruption. More than 5 hours backup
will be possible with a fully charged
battery pack in the Base unit.
The Sprint cordless phone informs
you that another extension is currently
in use on the same phone line. The
phone will also alert you when you are
Out of Range, even when you're not
using the phone!
