TRAITS OF TELEPHONES
Thank you for purchasing the CONAIRPHONETM MODEL SW1212.

2. If your home is wired for tone service, move switch to tone position.
3. If you are unsure of the type of service you have, ask your local
telephone company.
PREPAR A TION
Four AAA Alkaline batteries (not included) need to be installed in the
compartment located on the bottom of the Phone. Battery power is used
to support the hold and line select functions. Your CONAIRPHONETM will
place and receive calls normally without batteries.
NOTE: To use the hold function and the line status indication features,
batteries must be installed.
Install the Batteries
Open the battery door snap the four AAA Alkaline batteries in place
(ensure the polarity is correct). Close the battery door and plug in the
line cord to resume the telephone service (see Diagram E).
Pushbutton Dialing Convenience on Rotary Lines
This phone can be used as a direct replacement for rotary service. If
your home is wired for rotary service, move switch to pulse position and
enjoy pushbutton dialing ease.
NOTE: Your telephone will pulse for a second or two while you are
dialing. This simulates the dialing action.
True T one Dialing
If your home is wired for tone service, move switch to tone position. This
can be used as a direct replacement for tone phones. Also allows use
of long distance dialing services and tone accessed computers.
NOTE: If your home is not wired for tone service, you will not be able to
make outgoing calls while in the tone mode. You have rotary service.
INSTALLATION
Coil Cord Connection
Insert coil cord into modular jack located on the bottom of the housing.
Connect the other end into the modular jack located on handset
(see Diagram B).
5
Line Cord Connection
To use both lines of a two-line
telephone, two telephone numbers
must be provided by your telephone
company. If you have only one
telephone number, another line can
be installed by your telephone
company.
For One Two Line Jack(RJI4C)
Insert one plug of the 4 pin fully
modular line cord into the wall jack,
making sure it snaps firmly in place
(see Diagram C). Insert the other
plug of the 4 pin line cord into the
telephone jack marked “Line 1 + 2”
(see Diagram D).
For Two Single Line Jacks(RJ1 1C)
For two single line jacks, two
separate line cords are needed for
the connection. Connect the 4 pin
line cord to the first telephone wall
jack. Connect the other end of the
4 pin line cord into the telephone
jack marked “Line 1+2”. Connect
the 2 pin fully modular line cord to
the second telephone wall jack and
plug the other end of the line cord
into the telephone jack marked
”Line 2” (see Diagram D).
Wall Mounting
Your CONAIRPHONE TM is also
designed to mount on a wall surface.
Insert the modular plug into the wall
jack making sure it snaps firmly in
place. Position the wall mount slots
located on the back of the base over
the two studs of the wall plate. Push
down to lock in place. There is a
provision for holding the handset off
hook when the telephone is wall
mounted. Position the handset on the
notch above the DIAL TONE RESET
(hook switch) key. This is a convenient
feature when you need to call another
person to the phone or if you are
interrupted during the conversation.

OPERATION
Receiving a Phone Call
1. When your phone rings, the green LED will flash rapidly indicating a
call is coming in. Pick up the handset and press the key ( Line 1 or
Line 2 ) that is flashing rapidly. The green LED will be lit solid to indicate
that the line is in use.
NOTE: If the line status LED is not lit or is dimly lit, please install fresh
batteries.
2. Hang up the handset to release the telephone line when
conversation is completed.
Dialing a Call
NOTE: Before dialing, make sure the Tone/Pulse switch is correctly
positioned for your type of services.
1. Pick up the handset and press the line 1 or line 2 key for the line you
wish to access.
2. Wait for a dial tone, then press the dialing keys for the number
desired. Your CONAIRPHONETM, in pulse setting, uses electronic
impulses to simulate dialing. Because of this you might hear pulsing
for a second or two after the last button has been pressed. Note: Your
CONAIRPHONETM features a lighted keypad for dialing in a darkened
room.
Pulse / Tone Combination Dialing
Combination dialing is useful to subscribers of rotary (pulse) service
who wish to gain access to various low cost long distance and
computer services otherwise unavailable to them.
1. With the TONE/PULSE switch in the pulse mode, dial your access
number.
2. Press the “*” key (your telephone will change the dialing mode from
pulse to tone and a four second pause will be inserted automatically).
3. Dial your code/authorization number.
4. When call is completed, your telephone will return to the pulse dialing
mode automatically.
KEY FEATURES
Last Number Redial
Your CONAIRPHONETM remembers the last number dialed. If the
number you dial is busy or not being answered, hang up. If you want to
redial the last number automatically, press the REDIAL button.
NOTE: You can redial the same telephone number as many times as
required. However, once you dial another number, the previous number
is erased.
Pause
Some phone services require a pause during the dialing sequence. In
many cases, business phones require a prefix number such as “9” in
7
order to obtain an outside line. After dialing “9”, there often is a short
pause before a dial tone is heard. The PAUSE feature is designed so
that the automatic memory dialing and redial features can be
programmed with a 4 second pause in the dialing sequence. This will
allow enough time for the dial tone to come on line before the
programmed phone number is automatically dialed. Example:
* Dial the prefix number ( eg: 9).
* Press the REDIAL key before a dial tone is heard.
* Dial the desired telephone number. You can now use the REDIAL
feature. Your telephone will wait for an outside dial tone before dialing
the remaining digits. The PAUSE feature can also be programmed into
the automatic memory dialing feature.
PAUSE is also useful when accessing many telephone computer
services or long distance phone services where the user is required to
wait for a carrier or computer tone before entering their account/access
numbers.
NOTE: If your phone or computer service requires a waiting period of
more than four seconds, pressing the PAUSE key again adds another
four seconds to the delay (eg: press two times for eight seconds, three
times for twelve seconds, etc.)
Ringer Off / Low / High
Your CONAIRPHONETM features a harmonic dual tone ringer which can
be adjusted to a loud (High) or soft (Low) sound level. When you don’t
want to be disturbed, slide the switch to the “Off” position. Now you can
still make outgoing calls without being disturbed by incoming calls.
Distinctive Rings
Your CONAIRPHONETM features two distinct rings, one for each line (1
and 2).
Receiver Volume Control
The receiver volume control is located on the side of your handset. This
enables you to adjust the receiver normal to high for a more comfortable
listening level.
Flash Function
The FLASH key can be used to retrieve a new dial tone after ending a
call.
NOTE: The FLASH key is also a useful feature for special
telephone services such as call waiting and three party calling. Press
briefly, release and perform the custom call procedure.
Hold
To put a call on hold, press the HOLD key that corresponds to the line
your using and place the telephone handset into the base.The red LED
of the corresponding HOLD key will light while the call is on hold. To
resume your conversation, pick up the handset or pick up any extension.
Hold status will automatically release. Once the conversation is
complete, hang up as you would a basic phone.
