Congratulations! You have purchased
one of the most sophisticated and
unique cordless telephones on the
market. The VT 1511 has been
designed to offer a new standard in
cordless telephone technology.
When an optional battery pack is
installed in the base unit, the VT 1511
uses this battery to provide operational
backup in case of power failure. In this
way you have access to headset
functions during total power outage.
Calls can still be placed and received
ontheheadsetwithoutinterruption. Up
to 5 hours of backup will be possible
with a fully charged battery pack in the
base unit.

FCC REGULATIONS
FCC Part 68
This equipment may not be used on
coin service provided by the phone
company or Party Lines.
The FCC requires that you connect
your cordless telephone to nationwide
telephone network through a modular
telephone jack (USOC RJ11C, RJ11W
or RJ14).
The REN is useful in determining the
number of devices you may connect
to your telephone line and still enable
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.
Your local telephone company may
discontinue your service if your
equipment causes harm to the
telephonenetwork. Theywillnotifyyou
inadvanceofdisconnection,ifpossible.
Duringnotification,youwillbeinformed
of your right to file a complaint with the
FCC.
Your VT 1511 is designed to operate
at the maximum power allowed by the
FCC. This means your handset can
communicate with the base unit only
over a certain distance – which will
depend on the location of the base unit
and handset, weather, and the
construction and layout of your home
or office.
Occasionally, your local telephone
company may make changes in its
facilities, equipment, operation, or
procedures that could affect the
operation of your equipment. If so, you
will be given advance notice of the
change to give you an opportunity to
maintain uninterrupted service.
The base unit contains no user
serviceable parts.
The handset
contains a user replaceable battery
pack.
If it is determined that your telephone
equipment is malfunctioning, the FCC
requires that it not be used and that
it be unplugged from the modular jack
until the problem has been corrected.
Repairs to this telephone equipment
can only be made by the manufacturer
or its authorized agents or by others
who may be authorized by the FCC.
For repair procedures, follow the
instructions outlined under the
manufacturer’s Limited Warranty.

THE BATTERY PACK
Spare Battery Charger
Power Backup Function
The VT 1511 has a built-in spare
battery charger, which is located in the
base unit.
When a spare battery pack is installed
in the base unit, the VT 1511 uses this
battery pack to provide operational
backup in case of a power failure. If
you have a fully charged battery pack
in the spare battery charger and there
is a power outage, you will still be able
to place and receive calls on the
headset for up to 5 hours. When power
backup mode is active, the POWER
LED will flash slowly.
Note:
In order to benefit from this feature,
you must obtain an optional spare
battery from an authorized dealer,
or by contacting VTech Com-
munications at 1-800-595-9511.
Installation
Replacing a Drained Headset
Battery
1. Open the spare battery charger in
the base unit.
The spare battery pack can also be
used to replace a drained headset
battery pack to ensure uninterrupted
use. Be sure to put the drained battery
pack in the spare battery charger for
recharging.
2. Place a battery pack in the spare
battery charger. Make sure the
metal contacts on the battery are
aligned with the contacts in the
spare battery charger.
Please note that the spare battery
compartment charges at a slower rate
than a battery pack charging in the
headset (via the remote charging
stand). It takes 24 hours to fully charge
a battery pack in the spare battery
charger.
