Your RadioShack ET-682 2-Line 900-MHz Spread Spectrum Cordless Speaker
phone uses advanced cordless telephone technology to give you extended 
range and superior audio quality, with less interference than many other 
cordless phones.

The phone lets you make and receive calls on two separate telephone lines.
Its Caller ID records each caller's telephone number (and name, if 
available in your area) and the date and time of the call, as provided by 
your local phone company to Caller ID service subscribers. If you 
subscribe to Call Waiting with Caller ID, the phone can even show you 
incoming caller information when you are already on the phone. 

The answering system stores up to 25 minutes or up to 59 messages on a 
computer chip and records each message's day and time.  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 TAD from a touch-tone 
phone (or from a rotary phone with a pocket tone dialer).

Its features include:

IMPORTANT:  Every state has different regulations governing the recording 
            of conversations over the telephone.  Be sure to check your 
            local, state and federal laws before using this product to
            record any telephone conversation in order to determine that 
            your use is in compliance with such laws or guidelines. 

     Phone Pick-up Detection - stops recording when you pick up any phone

      Adjustable Ring Number - lets you set the TAD to answer after two or

                               distance to check your messages. 

      Digital Volume Control - lets you precisely adjust the speakerphone 
                               and message playback. 

IMPORTANT:  Cordless phones such as this one require AC power to operate.  
            When the AC power is off, you cannot dial out or receive 
            incoming calls using your phone.  To be safe, you should also 
            have a corded phone that does not need A/C power to operate so 
            you can still make and receive calls if there is an AC power 
            failure. 

            When AC power is lost, the phone loses the security access  
            protection code connection between the base and the handset.  
            When power is restored, put the handset on the base briefly 
            to restore this connection so you can use the handset.

subscribe to those services through your local phone company.

Read This Before Installation

We have designed your phone to conform to federal regulations and you can 
connect it to most phone lines.  However, each device that you connect to 
the telephone line draws power from the line.  We refer to this power draw 
as the phone's ringer equivalence number, or REN. The REN is on the bottom 
of your phone.

If you use more than one phone or other device on the line, add up all the 
RENs.  If the total is more than five (three in rural areas), your phones 
might no ring.  If ringer operation is impaired, remove one of the devices 
from the line. 

FCC Statement

Your telephone complies with Part 68 of FCC Rules. You must, upon request,
provide the FCC registration number and the REN to your phone company.
These numbers are on the bottom of the base.

You must not connect your phone to any of the following: 

  Coin-operated systems.

  Party-line systems.

  Most electronic key phone systems.

This equipment complies with the limits for a Class B digital device as 
specified in Part 15 of FCC Rules.  These limits provide reasonable 
protection against radio and TV interference in a residential area.  
However, your equipment might cause TV or radio interference even when it 
is operating properly.  To eliminate interference, you can try one or more 
of the following corrective measures.

  Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

  Increase the distance between the equipment and the radio or TV. 

  Use outlets on different electrical circuits for the equipment and the  
  radio or TV.

Consult your local RadioShack store if the problem still exists.
