(430-1084)                 Operation                  Faxback Doc. # 19582

For the best reception, stand the base's antenna up straight.

ANSWERING/MAKING A CALL

If the handset is on the base when you receive a call, simply lift the
handset and speak into it.  If the handset is not on the base, press TALK
before speaking.

To make a call, pick up the handset and press TALK before you dial.

While the phone is in use, the IN USE indicator on the base and the TALK
button on the handset light.

To disconnect a call, place the handset on the cradle or press TALK again.
IN USE and TALK turn off.

ADJUSTING THE HANDSET VOLUME

To increase the volume you hear through the handset, press VOLUME once
during a conversation.  To return to the normal level, press VOLUME again.

USING REDIAL

Press REDIAL to quickly redial the last number dialed.

USING FLASH

Use FLASH with special phone company services such as Call Waiting.  If
you have Call Waiting, press FLASH to take an incoming call without
disconnecting the current call.  Press FLASH again to return to the first
call.

NOTE:  If you do not have any special phone services, pressing FLASH might
       disconnect the current call.

USING MUTE

Press and hold MUTE to talk to someone else in the room without the person
on the other end of the phone hearing your conversation.  Release MUTE to
return to the phone conversation.

USING TONE DIALING ON A PULSE LINE

If you have pulse service, you can dial a number as usual, then temporarily
switch to tone service for banking services or computer transactions.

Simply press * at the appropriate place in the call to change to tone
dialing.  The phone automatically returns to pulse dialing when you
disconnect the call.

MEMORY OPERATION

You can easily store up to ten different phone numbers up to 18 digits each
into memory for rapid recall.

Storing a Number in Memory

1.  Remove the handset from the base.  BE sure the TALK indicator is not
    on.

2.  Press PROG on the handset.  The TALK indicator blinks.

3.  Enter the number you wish to store (up to 18 digits).

    NOTES:  If you press a button (such as FLASH) that cannot be stored in
            memory, the phone chirps, but the programming sequence is not
            interrupted.

            Some telephone systems might require you to dial a special
            access number (usually 9) to get an outside line.  Pressing
            MUTE after the access number programs a pause into memory, so
            the system has time to access an outside line.

4.  Press MEM, then press the number button (0-9) for the location where
    you want to store the number within 30 seconds.  The phone beeps three
    times.

NOTE:  If the phone buzzes, you made an error (or waited longer than 30 
       seconds).  Repeat Steps 1-4.

Storing a Redial Number in Memory

To store the last number you dialed into memory, press PROG, REDIAL, MEM,
and the desired number button.

Dialing a Memory Number

1.  Press TALK.

2.  When you hear a dial tone, press MEM.

3.  Press the number button for the desired phone number.

Chain Dialing

When storing numbers for special services (such as alternate long distance
or bank by phone services), store the service's main phone number in one
memory location and the access of other additional number in another 
location.

To dial the number, press TALK, MEM, the first location number, MEM, then
the second location number.

If you have pulse (rotary) service, enter * before numbers you want the
phone to dial using touch tone.

IMPORTANT:  When storing emergency numbers and/or making test calls to
            emergency numbers:

            Remain on the line and briefly explain to the dispatcher the
            reason for the call before you hang up.

            Perform such activities in off-peak hours, such as late evening
            or early morning.

USING PAGE

The page feature helps you locate a misplaced handset.  If the handset's
battery has power, the handset rings when you press PAGE on the base.
Press TALK on the handset or PAGE on the base to stop the page signal.

NOTE:  If you do not hear the handset ring, set the VOLUME OFF/LOW/HIGH
       switch on the base to LOW or HIGH.

CHANGING CHANNELS

Your ET-909 spreads its digital transmission across a 5 MHz frequency
range, centered on a specific frequency, or channel.  The phone can ignore
isolated interference within the 5 MHz range.  This type of transmission
is called spread spectrum, and helps to ensure a clear transmission with
maximum range.

If another device (such as another 900 MHz cordless phone) is using the
same spread of frequencies, your phone's range might be shortened or you
might hear interference.  If this happens press CHAN on the phone's handset
to switch to another channel (100 different center frequencies).  If the
phone successfully changes channels, it beeps twice and the TALK button
blinks.

If there is too much interference, or if you are too far away from the
base, the phone beeps three times and your call might be disconnected.
Move closer to the base and try again.
