1 Congratulations! You have pur- chased one of the most sophisticated cordless telephones on the market! The CB 1733 has been designed to offer a new standard in cordless telephone technology. Unlike most other cordless phones, the CB 1733 digitizes your voice using advanced digital voice coding to pro- vide noise and distortion free perform- ance. 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 CB 1733 scrambles your voice before it transmits it. This allows you the security of knowing that no one can tune in and eavesdrop on your conver- sations. The CB 1733 decodes and displays name and number Caller ID (CID) information where available and when subscribed to. The alpha-numeric display will show both the name and number of the calling party (when available). Up to 15 name characters and/or 11 phone number digits can be displayed on the LCD. With the CB 1733, the user can easily answer a call by pressing any key other than the OFF, VOLUME keys or 3 PPU 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 environment. The CB 1733 includes a Speakerphone and keypad on the Base Unit. This enables you to make INTRODUCTION and receive calls hands-free at the Base. In addtion, the Intercom feature allows two-way communication between the Handset and Base Unit. Pressing INTER.COM on the Base can also assist you in locating a misplaced Handset. The CB 1733 uses special memory in both the Base Unit and Handset which is not susceptible to power failures. This provides permanent storage of all speed dial numbers, CID information as well as the Base Unit and Handset security codes. When the spare battery is installed in the Base Unit, the CB 1733 uses this battery 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 placed and received without interruption. More than 4 hours backup will be possible with a fully charged battery in the Base Unit. The phone will also alert you when you are Out of Range even when you're not using the phone!

The Handset of your CB 1733 ispowered by a rechargeable batterypack. It charges automatically when-ever the Handset is in the Base Unit.You should charge the battery pack for16 hours when you first receive yourphone. You’ll know the battery packneeds charging when:

• The low battery message isdisplayed:

• The Handset seems completelydead, the LCD is completely clearand does not activate when youpress the keys.

TO CHARGE THE BATTERYPACK

To charge the battery pack, place theHandset in the Base Unit. TheCHARGING indicator will light to showthe Handset is seated properly and thebattery pack is charging. It is recom-mended that the battery pack becharged for at least 16 hours initially.Afterwards, 8 hours of maintenancecharging should be sufficient. You canuse your telephone before that withdiminished capacity, but it is best tocharge the battery pack fully. It will takeseveral recharge cycles to maximizethe charge capacity of your batterypack. The maximum battery life be-tween charges is 7 hours of continuoustalk time or 14 days of stand by.

INSTALLING THE BATTERY PACK

Alternatively, if the spare battery packhas been charging in the Base Unit,simply exchange the drained Handsetbattery pack with the fully charged re-placement battery pack from the BaseUnit charger. Place the drainedHandset battery pack into the BaseUnit charger so that it will charge.

The Base Unit spare battery chargerdoes NOT charge a battery pack asquickly as the main Handset batterycharger. A full charge requires 24hours.

A WORD ABOUT RECHARGE-ABLE BATTERIES

Your Ni-Cd battery pack rechargeswhenever the Handset is returned tothe Base Unit.

IT’S IMPOSSIBLE TO OVER-CHARGE THE BATTERY PACK

The battery pack can be rechargedmany times but if you get a low-batterysignal even after 8 hours of charging inthe Base Unit cradle (or 24 hours in theBase Unit spare battery charger), thebattery pack(s) should be replaced.
