Installation

Install the telephone base close to a telephone jack and a power outlet not controlled by a wall switch. The telephone base should be placed on a flat surface. 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 lines, you must install a DSL filter between each telephone line cord and telephone wall jack (page 7). The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters.
Your product may be shipped with a protective sticker covering the telephone base and handset displays - remove them before use.
For customer service or product information, visit our website at
www.telephones.att.com or call 1 (888) 915-2007. In Canada, dial 1 (866) 288-4268.
Avoid placing the telephone base too close to:
• Communication devices such as television sets, VCRs, or other cordless telephones.
• Excessive heat sources.
• Noise sources such as a window with traffic outside, motors, microwave ovens, refrigerators, or fluorescent lighting.
• Excessive dust sources such as a workshop or garage.
• Excessive moisture.
• Extremely low temperature.
• Mechanical vibration or shock such as on top of the washing machine or work bench.

Getting started

Planning your system

The SynJ SB67138 package includes one telephone base and one cordless handset (already registered). The included cordless handset has been assigned extension number 1. The system supports a maximum of four external lines, which are provided by your telephone service provider.
You can expand the system by adding a combination of up to 10 additional cordless handsets (AT&T model SynJ SB67108), desksets (AT&T model SynJ SB67148), and one cordless headset (AT&T model TL7600). The system automatically assigns an extension number to each device you add.
You can use a DECT 6.0 repeater (AT&T model SynJ SB67128) to extend the operating range for cordless handsets to cover areas where the signal is very weak or not available.
NOTES:
If you have two or three telephone lines, you will need one two-line adapter for every two lines. If
1. you have four telephone lines, you will need two two-line adapters.
If your establishment has four telephone lines from one-line telephone jacks, you will need to
2. purchase a telephone line cord (purchased at an electronics store in your area) or equivalent for each two-line adapter.
If you have high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital subscriber line), you need to have an external
3. or internal DSL splitter for each telephone line installed at your location by your DSL provider.

For complete instructions on using the accessory cordless handset or headset, please refer to the appropriate manual.

Area codes

Use this feature to program this system to recognize one home area code and up to four local area codes. This feature makes it easy for you to place a call from the caller ID log.
If you dial seven digits to make a local call (no area code required), enter your area code into the telephone as the home area code. When you receive a call from within your home area code, the caller ID information only displays the seven digits of the telephone number, and when you dial from the call log, only seven digits are dialed.
If you must dial 10 digits (the area code and telephone number) for local calls, enter 000 for the home area code and enter your area code as a local area code. Then, if you receive a call from within your area code, the screen displays all 10 digits of the telephone number, and when you dial from the call log, all 10 digits are dialed.
If you have more than one area code for your region, enter those area codes as local area codes.
