[. . . ] OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR CORDLESS TELEPHONE MODEL CP-706 How To Use Your Cordless Telephone Model CP-706 U. S. PATENT 4876709 Introduction Thank you for your purchase of a Cobra® INTENNA® Cordless Telephone -- the world's first and only full-range-power cordless telephone without any external antennas!No more extending, bending, or breaking the telescopic metal antennas found on traditional cordless phones -- your Cobra INTENNA conceals its antenna systems inside the handset and base, where they should be, out of your way. Now you can install your new Cobra INTENNA cordless phone virtually anywhere. [. . . ] The sound of your phone will be comparable to the performance of a corded phone. 7 DIGITAL SECURITY Your Cobra INTENNA features digital security coding (in accordance with FCC regulations) to reduce the chance of interference from your neighbors' cordless phones. These inaudible, electronic codes are transmitted automatically by your phone to establish a secure link between your cordless handset and base. DISPLAY WINDOW Use the back of the white "10 CHANNEL" card at the top of the dialpad to write your phone number. To page someone at the handset location, press the PAGE/ FIND button for one second and the handset will beep. To find a misplaced handset around your home, press PAGE/ FIND for at least 5 seconds; the handset will then beep for 30 seconds, giving you time to locate the handset. When handset is found, press TALK to eliminate PAGE signal. PAG E / FI ND POWER FAILURE RESET After a power failure in your home (or any time you unplug your phone from AC power and then reconnect it), you must return the cordless handset to the base for about thirty seconds. This automatically matches the digital security codes. PRIVACY FEATURE This feature is automatically activated whenever you use your phone. Builtin voice scrambling allows complete calling privacy by scrambling the signals between the handset and the base and between the base and the handset, making it impossible for an outside source such as another cordless phone, scanner or baby monitor to pick up a conversation from your phone. This ensures that you will always have totally private telephone conversations. PULSE/TONE SWITCH Your Cobra INTENNA cordless phone can be used with any phone system because it is switchable from pulse to tone dialing (see switch on back of the base) depending on which service you are using. Mixed PULSE and TONE dialing may be used (to access certain longdistance or computerized banking services, for example) by selecting PULSE with the base switch and then using the button on the handset to temporarily switch to TONE dialing. Hanging up resets to PULSE. PULSE TONE RINGER SWITCH The OFF/ON switch (located on back of the base) controls your cordless handset's electronic ringer; no ring will sound in the OFF position. OFF ON D RINGER SECUR-LOC® This exclusive Cobra electronic circuitry is an added security measure to protect your phone line from being accidentally accessed by a neighbor's cordless phone. Secur-Loc activates automatically every time your cordless handset is placed into its base. 9 Rechargeable Battery Information NOTE: Before using your new Cobra INTENNA cordless telephone for the first time, you must charge the battery overnight (at least 12 hours) for optimum long-life conditioning of the nickel-cadmium rechargeable handset battery. BATTERY RECHARGING When your cordless handset battery needs recharging, the following alerts will remind you to immediately return the handset to the base for recharging (this normally requires at least 12 hours of continuous charging): 10 CHANNE L 1. This indicates you have only a few minutes of battery power remaining to complete your conversation before the phone disconnects. When handset has been away from the base for a few days and needs recharging, it will beep at 30 second intervals for five minutes. NOTE: The CHARGE indicator will remain on as long as the handset is in the base, even after the batteries are fully recharged. The batteries will not be damaged if the handset remains in the base continuously; the charging system is self-adjusting and will never overcharge the batteries.
