Getting started

Installation

You must install and charge the battery before using the telephone.

STOP!

See page 12-15 for easy instructions.

Install the telephone base close to a telephone jack and a power outlet not

controlled by a wall switch. The telephone base can be placed on a at surface

or vertically mounted on the wall (see page 17). For optimum range and better reception, place the telephone base in a central and open location.

If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital subscriber line)

through your telephone line, you must install a DSL lter between the telephone

line cord and the telephone wall jack (see page 10). The lter prevents noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service

provider for more information about DSL lters.

Your product may be shipped with protective stickers covering the handset and telephone base displays - remove them before use.

Operate the handsets the same way as usual, except the answering system and all Bluetooth related features which will be disabled.

Using the handset placed in the telephone base:

To maximize the operating time, you are not advised to use this handset. If

you do have to use it, make sure you do not li it from the telephone base. All

operations should be done with the handset placed in the telephone base. In this case, calls can only be made and received using the speakerphone.

When the setting is On, the cordless speakerphone speaks “Call from...” and the name of the caller based on the directory or caller ID information during an incoming call. If the caller’s name is unavailable, the phone number up to the last 11 digits will be announced.

f When there are up to five handsets registered, the telephone system supports caller

ID announce for all handsets. If six or more handsets are registered, the system supports caller ID announce for the first four registered handsets only.

f This feature does not announce information for call waiting calls. f It takes at least 2 rings for the phone to receive caller ID information and announce it. If the phone is answered

before the end of the second ring, the phone will not have time to announce the caller’s information.

f Pronunciation of names may vary with this feature. Not all names may be pronounced correctly. f When this feature is on, the telephone plays both the caller ID information and the ringer at the same time when
