VTech Cordless Telephone VT 1922 User Manual

INTRODUCTION  
Congratulations!  
chased one of the most sophisticated  
cordless telephones on the market!  
You have pur-  
ringing. This can be used to alert the  
handset user, or to simply locate the  
handset in the event that it is  
misplaced.  
The VTech VT 1922  
has been  
designed to offer a new standard in  
cordless telephone technology.  
The VTech VT 1922 uses special  
memory in both the base and handset  
which is not susceptible to power  
failures. This provides permanent  
storage of all memory dial numbers,  
CID information as well as the base  
and handset security codes.  
Unlike most other cordless phones,  
the VTech VT 1922 digitizes your voice  
using advanced ADPCM digital voice  
coding to provide noise and distortion  
free performance. 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.  
When an optional battery pack is  
installed in the base unit, the VTech  
VT 1922 uses this battery pack 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  
The VTech VT 1922 scrambles your  
voice before it transmits it. This allows  
you the security of knowing that no one  
can tune in and eavesdrop on your  
conversations.  
interruption.  
More than 5 hours  
backup will be possible with a fully  
charged battery pack in the base unit.  
The VTech VT 1922 decodes and  
displays name and/or number Caller  
ID (CID) information where available  
and when subscribed to. The alpha-  
numeric display can show both the  
name and number of the calling party.  
Up to 15 name characters or 11  
phone number digits can be displayed  
on the LCD.  
The VTech VT 1922 informs you that  
another extension is currently in use  
on the same phone line. The phone  
will also alert you when you are Out  
of Range, even when you're not using  
the phone!  
With the VTech VT 1922, the user can

the devices to ring when you receive  
a call. The general rule is that the REN  
value should not exceed 5.0A total;  
however, contact your local telephone  
company for the specific number in  
your area.  
The equipment has been tested and  
found to comply with part 15 of the  
FCC rules. These limits are designed

CHARGING  
BATTERY PACK  
THE  
HANDSET  
Alternatively, if you have purchased  
a spare battery pack and it has been  
charging in the base unit, simply  
exchange the drained handset battery  
pack with the fully charged replace-  
ment battery pack from the base  
charger. Place the drained handset  
battery pack into the base charger to  
recharge.  
The handset of your VTech VT 1922  
cordless telephone is powered by a

automatically whenever the handset is  
in the base. You should charge the  
battery pack for 16 hours when you  
first receive your phone. You'll know  
the battery pack needs charging  
when:  
A. When the power supply cord  
or plug is damaged or frayed.  
14. Do not use the telephone to  
report a gas leak in the vicinity of  
the leak.  
B. If liquid has been spilled into  
the product.  
The base spare battery charger does  
NOT charge a battery pack as quickly  
as the handset battery charger. A full

a VTech authorized technician  
to restore the product to normal  
operation.  
The low battery message is  
displayed:  
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO OVER-  
CHARGE THE BATTERY PACK  
The battery pack can be recharged  
many times, but if you get a low-  
battery signal even after 16 hours of  
charging in the base cradle (or 24  
hours in the base spare battery  
charger), the battery pack(s) should  
be replaced.

automatically.  
Since the VTech VT1922 is a fully  
digital phone, it does not suffer from  
noise associated with regular  
cordless phones. At times you may  
experience occasional "drop outs",  
especially at the extreme edges of the  
phone's range. Simply move closer  
to the base unit and this will disappear.  
OUT OF RANGE WHEN PHONE IS  
ON  
If you are presently engaged in a  
phone  
conversation move closer to the base.  
If the base unit does not communicate  
with the handset within 25 seconds of  
losing contact, it will automatically  
hang up.  
To purchase a Headset, call VTech  
at 1-800-595-9511.

Do not force the connection.  
AUTOMATIC SECURITY CODING  
Your VTech VT1922 phone is factory  
set with 16.8 million possible security  
codes. This unique security code  
allows your handset and base to  
recognize each other, and minimizes  
the possibility of another cordless  
phone using your telephone line.  
OUT OF RANGE WHEN PHONE IS  
OFF  
If the phone is OFF, the handset and  
base still monitor each other to make  
sure that they can communicate. If the  
handset is moved out of range, the  
handset will make a series of beeps,  
and will then display "CHANNEL  
SEARCHING" on the LCD. At 15  
second intervals the handset will  
scan all channels in an attempt to  
reestablish communication with the  
base. This process does not require  
user intervention; the handset will re-  
link with the base automatically once  
it is brought back within range. The  
unit will then be able to receive and  
place calls.  
OPERATION  
NOTE: Whenever a compatible  
Headset is connected to the cordless  
Handset, the microphone on the Hand-  
set will be muted. This is done to limit  
the effect of background noise.  
OUT OF RANGE INDICATION  
If the handset is moved to a point  
where the base and handset can no  
longer communicate, the handset will  
make a quick series of beeps to  
signal Out of Range.
