Your Radio Shack ET-531 10-Channel

Cordless Telephone with 10-Memory

Speed Dialing includes the latest ad-

vances in cordless phone technology.

It includes the following features:

10-Channel Selector — lets you eas-

ily select the channel with the best per-

formance and least interference.

Advanced Super CCT Circuitr

—

provides clarity comparable to a cord-

ed phone, reduces background noise,

and increases effective operating dis-

tance.

10-Number Memor

— lets you store

10 phone numbers in memory for easy

dialing.

COM-LOK — ensures that other cord-

less phone users cannot use your

phone line while the handset is on the

base.

Automatic Securit

Access Code —

changes each time you return the

handset to the base to help prevent

other cordless phone users from using

your phone line while the handset is off

the base.

Flash — sends an electronic switch-

hook signal for use with special phone

services such as call waiting.

Redial — quickly redials the last num-

ber dialed, with the touch of a button.

Touch Tone or Pulse (Rotar

) Dial-

— lets you connect your phone to

either type of service.

Hearin

-Aid Compatibilit

— lets

you use your phone with hearing aids

that have a T (telephone) switch.

For your records, we urge you to

record the serial number of your phone

in the space below. The serial number

is located on the bottom panel of the

base.

Serial Number:__________________

Please read this owner’s manual care-

fully so you can enjoy all of your tele-

phone’s features.

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 cordless phone. For this reason,

the cordless phone should not be your

only telephone. To be safe, you should

also have a phone that does not re-

quire AC power to operate (not a cord-

less phone) so you can still make and

receive calls if there is an AC power

failure.

43-1031.fm Page 2 Tuesday, August 17, 1999 9:24 AM

This telephone has been tested and

found to comply with all applicable

FCC and UL standards.

Note: Your 10-Channel Cordless Tele-

phone with 10-Memory Speed Dialing

operates on standard radio frequen-

cies, as allocated by the FCC. There-

fore, it is possible for other radio units

operating on similar frequencies, with-

in a certain area, to inadvertently inter-

cept your conversa-tions and/or cause

interference on your cordless tele-

phone. This lack of privacy can occur

with any cordless telephone.

Warning: To prevent fire or shock haz-

ard, do not expose this product to rain

or moisture.

This symbol is intended to alert you

to the presence of uninsulated dan-

gerous voltage within the product’s

enclosure that might be of sufficient

magnitude to constitute a risk of

electric shock. Do not open the

product’s case.

This symbol is intended to inform

you that important operating and

maintenance instructions are in-

cluded in the literature accompany-

ing this product.

READ THIS BEFORE

INSTALLATION

We have designed your telephone to

conform to federal regulations, and

you can connect it to most telephone

lines. However, each device that you

connect to the phone line draws power

from the phone line. We refer to this

power draw as the device’s ringer

equivalence number, or REN. The

REN is shown on the bottom of your

phone.

If you are using more than one phone

or other device on the line, add up all

the RENs. If the total is more than five,

your phone might not ring. In rural ar-

eas, a total REN of three might impair

ringer operation. If ringer operation is

impaired, remove a device from the

line.

FCC STATEMENT

This telephone complies with Part 68

FCC Rules

. You must, upon re-

quest, provide the registration number

and the REN to your phone company.

These numbers are located on the bot-

tom of your phone.

Note: You must not connect your

phone to any of the following:

• Coin-operated systems

• Party-line systems

• Most electronic key phone sys-

tems

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.

DO NOT OPEN.

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF

ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE

COVER OR BACK. NO USER-SERVICE-

ABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVIC-

ING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.

CAUTION !

PREPARATION

INSTALLING THE

BATTERY

Before you use your phone for the first

time, you must install and connect the

battery, then charge it for about 12-15

hours.

To install the battery, slide off the bat-

tery compartment cover on the back of

the handset. Place the battery in the

compartment, then connect the battery

to the pins inside the battery compart-

ment.

Then install the handset’s antenna, re-

place the cover, mount the phone (see

“Selecting a Location”), and follow the

instructions under “Charging the Bat-

tery.”

INSTALLING THE

HANDSET’S ANTENNA

Insert the antenna into the hole at the

top of the handset, then rotate the an-

tenna clockwise until it is secure.

SELECTING A LOCATION

You can place your phone on a desk,

shelf, or table, or mount it on a wall.

Select a location that is:

• Near an AC outlet

• Near a telephone line jack

• Out of the way of normal activities

• Away from fluorescent lights, elec-

trical machinery, electrical appli-

ances, and metal walls or filing

cabinets

• Away from computers, remote

control toys, wireless intercoms,

alarms, and room monitors.

The base’s location affects the phone’s

range. If you have a choice of several

locations, try each to see which pro-

vides the best performance.

Notes:

• If the phone line jack is not a mod-

ular jack, you must update the wir-

ing. You can do this yourself,

using jacks and adapters avail-

able at your local Radio Shack

store, or you can let the phone

company update the wiring for

you.

• The phone company will charge

you for the installation of the nec-

essary jacks.

43-1031.fm Page 5 Tuesday, August 17, 1999 9:24 AM

• The USOC number of the jack to

be installed is RJ11W for a wall

jack or RJ11C for a baseboard

jack.

Caution: You must use a 120 VAC/12

VDC adapter that delivers at least 200

milliamps. Its plug must correctly fit the

phone’s 12VDC jack. The supplied

adapter meets these requirements.

Using an adapter that does not meet

these requirements could damage the

phone or the adapter.

Placing the Base on a Desk

Top

Follow these steps when you place the

base on a desk, shelf, or table.

1. Plug one end of the supplied mod-

ular cord into the TEL. LINE jack

on the back of the base.

2. Plug the modular cord’s other end

into a modular phone line jack.

3. Insert the supplied AC adapter’s

barrel plug into the 12VDC jack on

the back of the base.

4. Plug the adapter into a standard

AC outlet.

5. Place the handset upright over the

charging contacts on the top of

the base (see “Charging the Bat-

tery”).

Note: The phone will not charge if

you try to use the charging con-

tacts on the side of the base while

it is flat on a desk top.

6. Fully extend the base’s antenna

and place it in a vertical position.

Mounting the Base on a Wall

Plate

You need a short modular cord (such

as Radio Shack Cat. No. 279-390, not

supplied) and a standard wall plate for

this mounting method.

1. Plug one end of the short modular

cord into the TEL. LINE jack on the

back of the base.

2. Route the short cord downward

through the slot on the base’s bot-

tom and under the clips as shown.

43-1031.fm Page 6 Tuesday, August 17, 1999 9:24 AM

3. Route the other end of the short

cord through the hole in the

bracket’s center.

4. Attach the supplied bracket to the

bottom of the base by inserting

the tabs on the bracket into the

slots on the base, then sliding the

bracket up.

5. Insert the supplied AC adapter’s

barrel plug into the 12VDC jack on

the back of the base. Then plug

the adapter into a standard AC

outlet.

6. Plug the modular cord into the

wall plate’s jack.

7. Align the bracket’s keyhole slots

with the wall plate studs and slide

the base downward to secure it.

8. Carefully place the handset in the

cradle at the top of the base and

make sure it is secure.

Note: If you later want to mount

the base on a desktop, press

PUSH on the bracket and pull it off

to remove it.

9. Fully extend the base’s antenna

and place it in a vertical position.

Mounting the Base Directly

on the Wall

You need two wood screws (not sup-

plied) for this mounting method.

1. Drill two holes 315/16 inches apart.

Then thread a screw into each

hole, letting the heads extend 1/4

inch from the wall.

43-1031.fm Page 7 Tuesday, August 17, 1999 9:24 AM

2. Plug one end of the supplied mod-

ular cord into the TEL. LINE jack

on the back of the base.

3. On the bottom of the base, route

the modular cord downward and

under the slot’s clips as shown.

4. Attach the supplied bracket to the

bottom of the base by inserting

the tabs on the bracket into the

slots on the base, then sliding the

bracket up.

5. Insert the supplied AC adapter’s

barrel plug into the 12VDC jack on

the back of the base. Then plug

the adapter into a standard AC

outlet.

6. Plug the modular cord into a mod-

ular phone line jack.

CHARGING THE

BATTERY

Before you use your phone for the first

time or when you install a new battery,

make sure RINGER ON/OFF on the

handset is set to OFF, then charge the

battery for about 12-15 hours by plac-

ing the handset on the cradle so the

POWER and CHARGE indicators

light.

The phone charges whenever the

handset is on the base. You can re-

charge the battery at any time, but be

sure to recharge it when BATT LOW

lights on the handset.

Notes:

• Continuing to use the battery after

BATT LOW lights could shorten

overall battery life.

• The first time you use your phone

after installing a new battery, the

handset might not work or might

sound an error tone when you

press

TALK. This might also occur

when you recharge a battery that

has been completely discharged.

If this happens, be sure RINGER

ON/OFF is set to ON. Then return

the handset to the cradle for 5

seconds. This resets the security

access code.

• If the CHARGE indicator does not

light when you place the handset

on the cradle, be sure the battery

is connected to the pins inside the

battery compartment, and the AC

adapter is securely connected to

the base.

Also, check the charging contacts

on the handset and base. If the

contacts are dirty or tarnished,

gently clean them with a pencil

eraser.

• About once a month, fully dis-

charge the battery. Keep the

handset off the cradle until BATT

LOW lights. Then return the hand-

set to the cradle and recharge the

battery for about 10 hours.

SETTING THE DIALING

MODE

Set TONE/PULSE on the base for the

type of service you have. If you are not

sure which type you have, do this test.

1. Set TONE/PULSE to TONE.

43-1031.fm Page 9 Tuesday, August 17, 1999 9:24 AM

2. Lift the handset, press TALK, and

listen for a dial tone.

3. Press any number other than 0.

If the dial tone stops, you have touch-

tone service. Leave TONE/PULSE set

to TONE.

If the dial tone continues, you have

pulse (rotary) service. Set TONE/

PULSE to PULSE.

SETTING THE RINGER

ON/OFF

To turn off the ringer, set RINGER ON/

OFF on the handset to OFF. To turn on

the ringer, set it to ON.

Note: With the handset’s ringer off,

you can still make and receive calls us-

ing the cordless phone. Telephones on

the same line still ring when there is an

incoming call, the handset’s IN USE in-

dicator flashes, and the POWER and

CHARGE indicators on the base flash

until you answer the call.
