Telephones

what to keep and what to throw

Receiving Cordless Phones 1) If they have a power supply connected confirm "Is it the correct supply?" (i.e. voltage, amperage, and polarity match). If there is not a connected supplryr search the donation for a correct supply. 2) PLEASE use a rubber band or plastic bag to contain the unit, as tape will leave adhesive residue. Then take to "Advanced Testing"

Advanced Testing: Cordless Phones 1) Confirm base and transeiver are of the same manufacture. 2) Confirm power supply matches input rating on base unit i.e. Note: Amperage- Usually signified as "A","a","amp.","ampere" or ma for milli ampere and denoted with a decimal point in the rating.

• Voltage- usually signified with a "V",or"VA".
• Polarity- If rating on base calls for an "A.C." input polarity is of no consequence.

otherwise a line connected to a C then a dot in the C connected to a line then the lines denote polarity a minus signifies negative polarity and a positive
