2) IMPORTANT CALLER ID INFORMATION  
To use the phone’s Caller ID and call waiting features, you must be in an area where  
the services are available, and you must subscribe to the services. Where Caller ID is  
offered, one or more of the following options are generally available:  
a)  
b)  
c)  
Caller’s number only  
Caller’s name only  
Caller’s name and number  
3) IMPORTANT NOTICE BEFORE INSTALLATION  
Each device that you connect to the phone line draws power from the phone line.  
This power draw is referred to as the device’s ringer equivalence number, or REN.  
The REN for the B150D is located on the bottom of the telephone.  
If you are using more than one phone or other devices on the same line, add up the  
value of all the RENs. If the total is greater than five (three in rural areas), your phone  
might not ring. If the ringer operation is impaired, the problem can often be rectified  
by removing a device from the line to reduce the total REN to the number allowed.  
FCC STATEMENT  
Your B150D complies with Part 68 of FCC Rules. You must, upon request, provide  
the FCC Registration Number and the REN to your telephone company or other  
service provider. Both of these numbers are located on the bottom of the B150D.  
You must not connect your B150D to either coin-operated systems or party line  
systems.  
The B150D also complies with the limits for a Class B device as specified in Part 15  
of the FCC Rules. These limits provide reasonable protection against radio and TV  
interference in a residential area. However, your telephone 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:  
a)  
b)  
Reorient or relocate the TV or radio’s reception antenna  
Increase the distance between the telephone and the radio or TV.  
Consult your local dealer or service center if the problem persists.

CALLER ID, CALL WAITING  
18) CALLER ID, CALL WAITING  
18.1 CALLER ID  
Caller ID is a service provided by your telephone company or service provider. When  
you subscribe to this service, the telephone company sends the incoming caller’s tele-  
phone number (and name, if available), and the call’s date and time, between the first  
and second rings. The CID display receives and displays this information for each  
call, and updates the display with the current date and time. The display also shows  
if the caller information is not available, or if the sender blocks that information.  
Your B150D will save up to ninety-nine (99) call records, after which it replaces the  
oldest call record with each new one.  
18.2 CALL WAITING  
If you are using the telephone when a new call comes in, and you subscribe to call  
waiting service from your telephone company, the display indicates that a new call  
is being received. To answer the incoming call, press the FLASH/LINK key. To resume  
the previous conversation, press the FLASH/LINK key again.

The red LED on the top right-hand side of the B150D provides multiple indications:  
LED BLINKS SLOWLY: You have a voice message waiting  
LED REMAINS CONSTANTLY LIT: You have a new call in your Caller ID memory  
LED FLASHES QUICKLY: You have a new incoming call  
20) REVIEWING CALLER ID RECORDS  
Each time you receive a call, your B150D stores a Caller ID record that you can  
review later. A Caller ID record includes:  
– Call number (in the order the calls are received)  
– The time and date of the call  
– Caller’s telephone number (if available)  
– Caller’s name (if available)  
To review all the Caller ID records, repeatedly press REVIEW or REVIEW .  
The display will indicate END OF LIST when you reach the first or the last record in the  
list.  
NOTES:  
The display shows up to eleven (11) digits of a phone number. If an incoming phone  
number is longer, the display shows only the last 11 digits.  
The B150D returns to the time and date display after about twenty (20) seconds, if  
you do not press a key during that time.

(20) numbers of your choosing. When you receive a call from a number matching one  
stored in the VIP call record, the B150D sounds two quick beeps each time the phone  
rings, until you answer the call.  
NOTE:  
VIP call records are protected so you cannot delete them by mistake. To delete a  
VIP call record, you must first “unmark” it, using the steps in “Unmarking a VIP Call

25) MESSAGE WAITING  
If you subscribe to your telephone company’s message waiting service, the B150D  
tells you when you have a message waiting. The message waiting indicator icon will  
appear in the display, and remains until you retrieve the message. Depending on the  
type of message waiting service provided, the red message waiting light on the upper  
right corner of the top of the B150D will also blink. The indicator(s) will remain on  
until you retrieve the message(s.)  
NOTE:  
Refer to instructions provided by your service provider on how to retrieve messages.  
There are three types of message waiting:  
1) STUTTER DIAL TONE – if you subscribe to the telephone company’s message  
waiting service.  
2) FSK – if you subscribe to the telephone company’s CID message  
waiting service.  
3)  
MULTI-X – if you are behind a PBX system with message waiting service.  
For STUTTER DIAL TONE and FSK message waiting, set the message waiting switch at the  
bottom of the phone to FSK. For MULTI-X message waiting, set the message waiting  
switch to VMWI.  
26) TROUBLESHOOTING  
Should you experience difficulty with the operation of your B150D, check for the  
following:  
NO DIAL TONE  
BLANK DISPLAY  
Phone line and/or handset cord may not be connected securely.  
AC adapter may not be plugged in entirely, or line cords incorrectly installed.  
Someone may have picked up an extension on the same line.  
VOLUME DROPS  
WHILE ON A CALL  
NOISE ON THE LINE Phone line and/or handset cord may not be connected securely.  
If you still experience problems, disconnect the phone. If other phones on the same  
line work properly, the fault may be with this particular phone, or have something to  
do with its installation. If you cannot determine the problem, take your telephone to  
your local dealer for assistance.  
27) CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
These suggestions will help you care for your phone so you can enjoy trouble-free  
service for many years:  
Keep the telephone dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids might  
contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuitry.

NOTICES AND REQUIREMENTS  
Use and store the B150D only in normal temperature environments. Extreme  
temperatures can shorten the life of electronic components, and distort or melt  
plastic parts.  
Keep the telephone away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature  
wearing of parts.  
Handle the B150D gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage internal circuit  
boards and components, causing the phone to work improperly.  
Wipe the B150D with a damp cloth occasionally to remove dust and dirt.  
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the  
telephone.  
Modifying or tampering with internal components can cause a malfunction and  
might invalidate the warranty, as well as void your FCC authorization to operate  
the telephone. If your B150D is not performing as it should, see your dealer for  
assistance. If the trouble is affecting the telephone lines, the telephone company  
or service provider may ask you to disconnect your telephone until the problem  
is resolved.  
28) WHAT THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW  
In the unlikely event that your B150D causes problems on the phone line, the tele-  
phone company can temporarily discontinue your service. If this happens, the tele-  
phone company attempts to notify you in advance. If advance notice is not practical,  
the telephone company notifies you as soon as possible and advises you of your right  
to file a complaint with the FCC.  
Also, the telephone company can make changes to its lines, equipment, operations,  
or procedures that could affect the operation of this telephone. The telephone com-  
pany notifies you of these changes in advance, so you can take the necessary steps to  
prevent interruption of your phone service.  
29) LIGHTNING  
Your B150D has built-in protection circuits to reduce the risk of damage from surges  
in telephone line and power line current. These protection circuits meet or exceed  
FCC requirements. However, lightning striking the telephone or power lines can  
damage your phone. Lightning damage is not common. Nevertheless, if you live in  
an area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug your phone  
during storms to reduce the possibility of damage.  
30) REQUIREMENTS OF PART 68- FCC RULES  
This device has been granted a registration number by the Federal Communications Commission, under

service in some situations. Repairs to certified equipment should be coordinated by a representative desig-  
nated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunc-  
tions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.  
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, tele-  
phone lines, and internal metallic water pipe systems, if present, are connected together. This precaution  
may be particularly important in rural areas.
