General Instructions
Please read these operating instructions carefully. If you have any questions, get in touch
with our Service Dept. by calling our Service Hotline at 0180 5 00 13 88.
Under no circumstances should you open the device or attempt to repair the device
yourself. Please contact your dealer in case of any warranty claims.
Intended use
This telephone is designed for use connected to an analogue telephone line (PSTN) in
Germany. However, due to differences in the services provided by the various
telecommunications providers, we cannot guarantee that the telephone will work properly
when connected to all telecommunications terminal lines. The telephone is prepared for
connection to a TAE phone jack with F/N coding and can be used together with other
equipment such as a fax, answering machine, or a modem. Plug the connecting phone
cable only into the telephone plug socket provided for this purpose. Do not replace the
plug of the connecting phone cable.
Power failures
Telephone calls cannot be made during power failures. Keep a cord telephone that is not
equipped with an external power supply available in case of emergency.
Rechargeable batteries
Use only rechargeable batteries as supplied. The use of other rechargeable batteries or
accupacks may cause a short-circuit. When changing the batteries, use only rechargeable
batteries, type AAA 1.2 Volt, 550mAh.
Do not throw batteries in the fire or immerse them in water. Do not dispose of old or
defective batteries with normal domestic waste.
Charging the handset
If the handset becomes warm when charging, this is quite normal and no cause for
alarm. Only charge the handset on the base station. The use of other chargers may
cause lasting damage.
Transformer plug
Use only the AUDIOLINE transformer plug supplied, other transformer plugs can destroy
your telephone. Opening the power supply plug while it is plugged into the supply mains
could lead to personal injury and death.
Private branch exchanges
The telephone can also be connected to a private branch exchange. The dealer where
you purchased the private branch exchange will tell you if your telephone will work
properly on your PBX. Due to the great variety of private branch exchanges, we cannot
guarantee that the phone will work properly on all PBXs.

- General Instructions -
Location of the base station
The base station must be located within reach of a 230Volt supply socket. To avoid
interference problems, do not place the base station in the immediate proximity of other
electronic equipment such as a microwave oven or hi-fi system. The location of the base
station can significantly influence the proper function of the telephone.
Place the base station on a level, non-slip surface. The feet of the base station will not
normally mark the surface on which it stands. However, the wide range of surface
finishes in use renders it impossible to exclude marking of any surface.
Do not use the handset in areas where there is a danger of explosion.
Avoid excessive exposure to smoke, dust, vibration, chemicals, humidity, high
temperature or direct sunlight.
Note for medical products
The telephone works with very low transmitted power. Present knowledge and research
indicate that, at this low power level, there is no possible danger to health. It has,
however, been shown that portable telephones, when switched on, can affect medical
equipment. Maintain a distance of at least one metre from medical equipment.
Disposal
If the batteries or the complete system have reached the end of their useful life, please
dispose of them in an environmentally friendly manner and as required by law.
Temperature and ambient conditions
The telephone is designed for indoor use and an operating temperature range of 10 °C to
30 °C.
The base station must not be installed in humid areas such as bath or wash rooms. Avoid
proximity to sources of heat such as radiators and do not expose the unit to direct
sunlight.
Cleaning and care
The outer surfaces of the unit can be cleaned with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Never use
cleaning agents or aggressive solvents. Apart from occasionally cleaning the outer
surfaces, no further care is required. The rubber feet of the base station are not resistant
to all cleaning agents. The manufacturer cannot, therefore, be held responsible for
damage to furniture etc.
CE marking
The telephone is compliant with the essential requirements of the R&TTE Directive. This
is certified by the CE marking.

2.1 Safety notices
NOTICE! Before switching on, do not fail to read the safety notices on of the beginning
of these instructions.
2.2 Checking the contents of the package
The package should contain:
one base station one supply cable
one handset with batteries one belt clip
one telephone connection cable one set of directions for use
2.3 Connecting the base station
Set up the telephone within reach of a telephone socket and an electricity supply socket.
1. Insert the connector on the lead from the transformer plug in the socket on the
underside of the base station and insert the transformer plug in a 230V supply socket
installed in accordance with regulations. The base station transformer plug must
always be connected. For safety reasons, use only the transformer plug supplied.
2. Connect the telephone cable supplied between the telephone socket and the
corresponding socket on the underside of the base station. Only use the new
telephone cable supplied.
3. Press the two cables into the two cable channels leading to the rear of the base
station.
2.4 Exchange the batteries
The rechargeable batteries (AAA, 1.2V, 550mAh) have a stand-by
time of max. 350 hours and a maximum talk time of up to 14
hours.To fit or change the batteries, open the battery compartment
cover and insert the new batteries. Take care to ensure that the
polarity is correct and close the battery compartment cover. Always
use rechargeable batteries, type AAA 2 x 1.2V, only.

To increase performance, you can also use rechargeable batteries of the same type with
up to 1300 mAh capacity. In this way, the stand-by time is increased to ca. 700 hours
and the talk time to ca. 28 hours.
Important notice: Place the handset on the base station, with the display facing
forwards, for at least 16 hours. If the batteries are not properly charged, the telephone
may fail to function correctly. While the handset is charging, the battery capacity symbol

2.5 Charging the batteries
The rechargeable batteries in your telephone handset provide for a maximum standby
time of 350 hours and a call time of up to 14 hours.
The actual state of charge of the batteries is shown in the display:
Full
If the remaining charge in the batteries is too low, the symbol in the display will blink
and you will hear a warning peep every 10 seconds.
To charge the batteries, place the handset on the base station with the display facing
forwards.
Notice: Before using the telephone for the first time, the batteries must be charged for
at least 16 hours. Like your car battery, the rechargeable batteries suffer from a certain,
unavoidable ageing effect. You can, however, minimise this by exercising the batteries
correctly. As you use your telephone, always start with fully charged batteries and
continue using it until they are "empty" as indicated by the blinking symbol in the
display. Then recharge them fully. This will maintain maximum battery capacity for as
long as possible. Repeated partial charging and discharging will "teach" the batteries to
operate with reduced capacity.

2.6 TONE (DTMF) or PULSE dialling
This forward-looking feature enables you to operate your telephone on both the older
analogue lines (pulse dialling) and the newer digital lines (tone/DTMF dialling). The

your line, consult point 7.7 to learn how to set your telephone for PULSE dialling.
