IMPORTANT-For Your Safety 1

To ensure safe operation the three-pin plug supplied must be inserted only into a standard threepin power point which is effectively grounded through the normal household wiring.

The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily does not imply that the power is grounded and that the installation is completely safe. For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective grounding of the power, consult a qualified electrician.

Important safety instructions 1

1 This product is equipped with a 3-wire grounded plug, a plug having a third (grounded) pin.

This plug will only fit into a grounded power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, call your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. DO NOT defeat the purpose of the grounded plug.

IMPORTANT-For Your Safety 1

To ensure safe operation the three-pin plug supplied must be inserted only into a standard threepin power point which is effectively grounded through the normal household wiring.

Important Safety Instructions 1

1 The grant of a Telepermit for any item of terminal equipment indicates only that Telecom has

accepted that the item complies with minimum conditions for connection to its network. It indicates no endorsement of the product by Telecom, nor does it provide any sort of warranty. Above all, it provides no assurance that any item will work correctly in all respects with another item of Telepermitted equipment of a different make or model, nor does it imply that any product is compatible with all of Telecom’s network services.

2 This equipment does not fully meet Telecom’s impedance requirements. Performance

limitations may occur when used in conjunction with some parts of the network. Telecom will accept no responsibility should difficulties arise in such circumstances.

3 If a charge for local calls is acceptable, the “Dial Button” should not be used for local calls. Only

the 7-digits of the local number should be dialled from your telephone. DO NOT dial the area code digit or the “0” prefix.

4 This equipment shall not be set to make automatic calls to the Telecome ‘111’ Emergency

Service.

5 This equipment should not be used under any circumstances which may constitute a nuisance

to other Telecom customers.

6 Not all telephones will respond to incoming ringing when connected to the extension socket.

7 The answer delay setting of this equipment shall not be set to less than the default setting as

this will destroy Caller ID information.

8 All persons using this device for recording telephone conversations shall comply with New

Zealand law. This requires that at least one party to the conversation is to be aware that it is being recorded. In addition, the Principles enumerated in the Privacy Act 1993 shall be complied with in respect to the nature of the personal information collected, the purpose for its collection, how it is to be used and what it disclosed to any other party.

9 This product is equipped with a 3-wire earthed plug. This plug will fit into only an earthed

socket. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete socket. DO NOT defeat the purpose of an earthed plug.

10 DO NOT place anything on top of the power cord including this machine. DO NOT allow the

power cord to be stepped on.

11 DO NOT touch a document during printing.

Page 12

12 Never push objects of any kind into this product through cabinet slots, since they may touch

dangerous voltage points or short out parts resulting in a risk of fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.

13 Unplug this product from the mains power and telephone line sockets, and refer servicing to

qualified Service Personnel under the following conditions:

 If the power cord is damaged or frayed.

 If liquid has been spilled into the product.

 If the product has been exposed to rain or water.

 If the product does not operate normally when the operating instructions are followed.

 If the product has been dropped or the casing has been damaged.

 If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service.

14 This unit will only work in conjunction with a tone signalling (DTMF) telephone, but some

telephones are not compatible. Since noise or speech from the telephone can upset dialling from this unit, errors may result if the devices are used together in other than quiet conditions.

15 Where it is necessary to dial prefix digits, such as a Caller Display override code (“0196” or

“0197”),this unit will have to be used in conjunction with an associated tone signalling (DTMF) telephone.

16 Note that some telephones are not compatible with this unit and dialling errors may result if the

two devices are used together in other than quiet conditions. The Telecom Faults Service is not to be called should such problems arise. In such cases, it is recommended that the prefix and wanted number are dialled manually.

17 This equipment may not provide for the effective hand-over of a call to another device

connected to the same line.

18 This equipment is not capable, under all operating conditions, of correct operation at the higher

speeds for which it is designed. Telecom will accept no responsibility should difficulties arise in such circumstances. This condition typically applies to 56 kbit/s modems and facsimile products operating at >14.4 kbit/s.

19 When using the Caller Line Identification incorporated in this device, verify the integrity of the

recorded digits prior to dialling.

20 Some parameters required for compliance with Telecom’s Telepermit requirements are

dependent on the equipment (PC) associated with this device. The associated equipment shall be set to operate within the following limits for compliance with Telecom’s Specifications:

 There shall be no more than 10 call attempts to the same number within any 30 minute

period for any single manual call initiation, and

 The equipment shall go on-hook for a period of not less than 30 seconds between the end

of one attempt and the beginning of the next call attempt.

 Automatic calls to different numbers are spaced such that there is not less than 5 seconds

between the end of one call attempt and the beginning of another.

Page 13

 Equipment shall be set to ensure that calls are answered within 3 and 30 seconds of the

receipt of ringing.

21 In the event of any problem with this device, it is to be disconnected, and a CPE item connected

to one of its terminal ports may be connected directly in its place. The user should then arrange for the product to be repaired. Should the matter be reported to Telecom as a wiring fault and the fault is proven to be due to this product, a call out charge will be incurred by the customer.

22 The caller ID telephone numbers that are displayed and stored in this equipment include the

caller’s area code but not the toll access “0” prefix. When calling back it is necessary to add a “0” to the telephone number, or if the telephone number is a local number, omit the area code digit. If the toll services of a service provider other than Telecom are being used then a toll charge may be incurred if the “0” prefix toll access code and area code are used.

IMPORTANT NOTICE 1

Under power failure conditions, this telephone may not operate. Please ensure that a separate telephone, not dependent on local power, is available for emergency use in emergencies.
