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 (that is, the antenna
for radio or television that is "receiving" the interference).
• Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the
telecommunications equipment and receiving antenna.
• Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiving antenna is connected.
If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult
your dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for
additional suggestions. Also, the Federal Communications
Commission has prepared a helpful booklet, "How To Identify and
Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems." This booklet is available
from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402.

IGITAL ECURITY YSTEM
Your cordless phone uses a digital security system to protect against
false ringing, unauthorized access, and unauthorized charges to
your phone line.
Each unit is programmed with a unique digital security code. When
the base and the handset are powered up for the first time, the
handset automatically registers with the base and verifies the
security code. After a power outage or battery replacement, you
should place the handset in the charging cradle for about one
minute to re-synchronize the handset and base.
