Important safety information

Important safety information
Read the following information before using the Nortel DECT Handset
4025.
CAUTION
Like all cordless telephones, this handset uses radio signals, which do not guarantee a connection setup under all circumstances. Generally, you should not rely exclusively on cordless telephones when making indispensable calls (such as medical emergencies).
The CE symbol on the product certifies its conformity with the technical guidelines concerning user safety and electromagnetic compatibility valid at the time of approval in accordance with European directive No. 91\263\EEC.
This product complies with IP50, according to IEC 529/EN60 529. Use only in countries where authorized.

Sensitive electronic equipment

Any radio-based equipment can potentially cause interference with other equipment and can receive interference from other equipment. This potential also applies for DECT equipment. However, due to the very low transmission power used by DECT equipment, the risk of interference is very small.
9
Important safety information

Safety precautions

Observe the following
WARNING
Do not open the handset or charger. Doing so could expose you to high voltages. Have all repairs carried out by authorized service personnel.
CAUTION
Do not allow the handset and charger to come into contact with water or chemicals.
Do not allow the charger and the battery contacts to come into contact with conductive objects such as keys, paper clips, rings, or bracelets.
This product contains magnetic material. Be aware that small metallic objects may stick (for example) to the loudspeaker. This may deteriorate the audio quality and can be harmful.
10
WARNING
Do not use the handset in a vehicle or hazardous location.
CAUTION
Use only the plug-in AC adapter and battery type supplied.
Ensure the adapter voltage is the same as the electrical outlet voltage.
Do not use AC adapters that are visibly damaged (cracked or broken housing), and keep the ventilation slits on the AC adapters free of obstruction.

Setting up the handset

Setting up the handset
Before you use the handset, it is important that you read the safety information and perform the following steps:
1. Install the charger.
2. Install the batteries.
3. Charge the batteries.
4. Subscribe the handset to the DECT system.

Installing the charger

Place the charger on a flat, even surface. To operate the charger, a mains connection is required. Ensure that the mains voltage matches the adapter mains voltage. Connect the charger to the mains connection.
1. Connect the cable on the plug-in AC adapter to the terminal on the bottom of the charger.
2. Plug the AC adapter into the mains socket outlet.
CAUTION
Do not install the charger, handset, and accessories near:
water, moisture, or dampness
sources of heat and direct sunlight
devices that generate strong magnetic fields, electrical appliances, fluorescent lamps, computers, radios, televisions, or fax and telephone terminals
12
Setting up the handset
CAUTION
Do not install the charger, handset, and accessories in:
areas where the handset can be covered, or in locations with poor ventilation
areas where there is excessive dust and areas subject to vibration, shock, or extreme temperature fluctuations
CAUTION
Keep the charger, handset, and accessories out of reach of small children.
Your handset is operational only after the batteries have been charged. You can then use the handset to make and receive calls.
13
Setting up the handset

Installing the batteries

The battery compartment is on the back of the handset. It takes the three type AAA batteries that are supplied. Please refer to “Important battery information” on page 15.
Figure 1 illustrates how to insert batteries in the DECT Handset 4025.
Figure 1: Inserting the batteries

1. Insert a small item, such as the top of a ballpoint pen, into the hole at the bottom of the compartment cover. Push in and lift the cover at the same time, as shown in Figure 1.
2. Insert the batteries in the battery compartment, taking care to observe the correct polarity. Make sure that the + - poles of the batteries correspond to the + - markings in the battery compartment.
3. Replace the cover by placing it on the compartment at a slight angle and pressing it down until it clicks into place.
14
Setting up the handset

Important battery information

Heat or cold reduces the performance and service life of the batteries. It is possible that a handset with hot or cold batteries can be temporarily out of operation even if the batteries are fully charged.
WARNING
Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. Recycle or dispose of batteries in accordance with local regulations.
WARNING
Do not replace the batteries in potentially explosive environments, such as rooms where flammable liquids or gases are present.
CAUTION
Do not charge the batteries unless you use the supplied charger and the proper batteries.

Charging the batteries

Place the handset in the charger.
CAUTION
Use only rechargeable AAA NiMh batteries of typical 800 mAh, 1.2 V.
CAUTION
The batteries can become hot during the first charge cycle.
15
Setting up the handset
CAUTION
Avoid placing the handset in the charger when fully­charged batteries have been removed from the handset and inserted again. They can become overcharged.

Charging guidelines

Charge the batteries for at least six to seven hours before using the handset for the first time. This protective measure extends the service life of the batteries.
The maximum power output is attained only after three to five charging and discharging cycles.
Do not leave the handset connected to the charger longer than one month without using.
The batteries can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but eventually they will be worn out. If the operating time (that is, talk and standby time) is significantly shorter than usual, it is time to replace the batteries.
To maintain optimum operating time, the batteries should be discharged from time to time by not placing the handset in the charger but leaving it switched on until it switches itself off. Use only this method to discharge the batteries.
Extreme temperatures influence the charging capability of the batteries.

Operating times

Empty batteries require six to seven hours to fully charge.
When a fully-charged handset is switched off, it discharges in approximately one week.
When batteries are fully charged, the handset has approximately 20 hours of talk time or approximately 200 hours of standby time.

Charge display

The handset display screen shows the battery charge status. When the battery capacity is almost exhausted, an alert tone sounds in the form of
16
Setting up the handset
three short “beep” signals (only during a call). This indicates that approximately five minutes of talk time remains.
See Figure 2 for battery charge status definitions.
Figure 2: Battery charge status
Fully charged - 75 to 100%
Partially charged - 50 to 74%
Partially charged - 25 to 49%
Partially charged- 0 to 24%
Batteries are empty.
An alert tone sounds and the icon (frame) flashes.
Note: When new batteries are inserted, a charge status icon does not display until a complete charge cycle has occurred. However, when partially charged batteries are inserted, then the charge status icon displays immediately.

Subscribing the handset to a DECT system

The handset must be subscribed to at least one DECT system before it can be used.
Before you subscribe to a DECT system, acquire the following information from your system administrator:
PABX-PIN — this code is used to access the DECT system
DECT system name
local phone number assigned to your DECT handset
PARK-Code (a PARK-Code system ID that should be used only if more than one DECT system overlaps in your location)
