Operation: the menu system
You can program your new handset to meet your own requirements. Besides mobility, it
offers you every telephony function you could wish for. The menu technique and the clever Foxkeys see to that. To make full use of the extended-feature functions, please refer to
the chapter "How to program your telephone" and the special programming instructions.
In addition to the non-acoustic call display with LED a call can also be indicated by a
vibrator. The handset is splashwater-proof and dust-proof (IP 54). It is available for use in
potentially explosive environments with explosion protection as per Eex ib IIC T4.
General rules of operation
There are two types of menus:
– Everyday operating menus for telephony functions.
– Programming menus for setting your telephone to meet your requirements.
Display in idle state In the idle state the display features a number of symbols, the
quality indicator, the date and time as well as a personal standby
text (e.g. name, department, tel. no., etc.). (The display immediately
switches to "Discreet" or to "Enqui" "Micro" if a call comes in or
during a call.)
—> —> —> Press the M-key (briefly once or several times) to proceed to the

Safety advice
Read this operating instructions booklet carefully and keep it in a safe place. Please make
a thorough study of the safety advice presented here. Not following these guidelines may
be hazardous and may violate existing laws.
Medical devices
Your telephone should not be used near pacemakers, hearing aids or other
personal medical devices of this type.
Availability of service
The base network is not always available. Do not depend on a mobile phone as
your only means of communication in critical situations.
Ambient conditions
Only use your telephone in a temperature range from +5°C to approx. +40°C.
Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight and other heat sources. The handset is
splashwater-proof and dust-proof (IP 54).
Protect your telephone from aggressive liquids, and vapors.
Do not place your telephone near electromagnetic fields (electrical motors,
household appliances). The voice quality could be reduced. Avoid positioning it
close to computers, radios, TVs, video players and phones, in order to avoid
noise during a call .
Do not use your telephone in areas where there is a risk of explosions.
The version with explosion protection complies with requirements as per
Eex ib IIC T4.
Do not use your telephone in areas where blasting work is going on. Observe the
restrictions and follow the pertinent regulations.
Maintenance and repairs
Use original accessories only. Call on an expert to do installation and repairs.
Never touch the recharging contacts with optioned, metallic and/or greasy
objects.
Clean your telephone with a soft, slightly moist or antistatic cloth. Do not use
cleaning solvents or other chemical substances.

Safety advice
Important information
There is a constant code exchange between radio base and handset to ensure that no one
with another handset can telephone at your expense. If the codes do not match, the call
is disconnected or no connection is established.
Locking the keypad
Your handset can be locked to prevent the accidental activation of keys. You can still
receive calls using the Call key. The keypad must be unlocked before outgoing calls can be
made.
Changing the code/password
When the handset is turned on for the first time, the code/password is "0000". We
recommend that you immediately programme a personal code consisting of 2 to 10 digits
so the personal settings of your handset and the data stored in it are protected from
unauthorized use.
Battery
The handset is supplied with a rechargeable battery.
• Do not immerse the battery in water or throw into a fire.
• Use only the plug-in power supply delivered with the telephone for the charging base.
• The battery must be charged for at least 1 hour without interruption before being
used for the first time.
Notes
• The battery may become warm during charging: this is normal and perfectly safe.
• It takes several days of use for the battery to reach its full capacity and thus the full
standby and calling time.
After a prolonged period of non-use as a result of a power shutoff (e.g. while you are on
holiday), the handset (i.e. the battery) should be recharged prior to being used again.
Please dispose of defective batteries correctly (they are not household refuse).

The handset can also be registered with a PBX

GAP (Generic Access Profile) and the required
"Authentication code.
Press the Foxkey under "New" and "GAP".

When "AC: _____" appears, enter the
authentication code and acknowledge by
pressing the Foxkey under "Ok".
GAP log-on, compatibility with other DECT products
Ascotel DECT supports all the basic telephony features as defined in the Generic Access
Profile (GAP) standard (end 1997 version). They include setting up and clearing down
outgoing and incoming calls, inquiry call, DTMF and */# procedures. In other words:
• You can log on and use your DECT system terminal on a third-party PBX. The only
requirement to be able to use all the basic features defined in the GAP standard is that
they are fully implemented on the relevant PBX.
• Third-party DECT handsets that comply with the GAP standard can also be logged on
to and used on your system. However, they will provide only the functionality limited
by the GAP standard and not the same quality of radio connection. In particular the
software for Mobility Management with handover/roaming is virtually fully dependent
on the handsets used and cannot be adapted 100% to your system.

Notes
• With "Long Click 1" (min. 2 seconds) you can switch your handset over to the next
available PBX system (A, B, C or D). Provided the switchover is not set on "Auto",
manual switchover of the PBX system is compulsory to ensure that your handset is

• "Long Click 2" is used to display the International Portable Equipment Identity (IPEI)
and PARK (Portable Access Right Key).
• "Long Click 5" displays the software version number of the handset along with the
