CC10

Congratulations on choosing a Clearsound CC10 cordless telephone. As an option, you may add up to two extra handsets to your CC10 so calls can be taken by any handset and transferred between handsets (although it is not possible to speak between handsets).

Should you wish to take advantage of these extra handsets, full instructions for their use are packed with the additional handsets (optional extra).

We at Geemarc want you to get the most out of our product and that’s why we’ve developed a manual that's easier to use. So please take the trouble to read it and enjoy your CC10 to the full.

What you can use your CC10 with

and what you can’t

You can use your CC10 with:

¨ private lines ¨ business lines ¨ compatible, approved PABXs. If you have a problem, contact your

PABX supplier. Your telephone line must accept TONE dialling. Do not use your CC10 with:

¨ shared service or party lines ¨ 1+1 carrier systems ¨ a payphone unless it’s a private payphone with the ‘green spot’

approval mark.

Safety

(See also information on p9)

¨ Before plugging in, make sure your electricity supply is 230v 50Hz AC. ¨ Never put the base unit outdoors. ¨ Base unit: never change the length of the adaptor lead or use any other

adaptor other than the supplied type 40 AC adaptor.

¨ Separate charger (if supplied) : if the adaptor or lead gets damaged,

replace the entire remote charging unit.

Where to put your CC10 and

how to look after it

¨ Keep it away from heat, dust and damp. ¨ Don’t install it near electronic or magnetically sensitive equipment such

as TVs, computers, cassettes or disks.

¨ Clean it with a soft cloth. Keep the base and handset charging contacts

clean.

¨ Never use polishes or cleaning agents - they could damage the finish

or the electrics inside. Note: We advise that the telephone be placed on a table cloth or similar, as rubber feet can mark some surfaces.

This equipment is not designed for making emergency telephone calls when the power fails. Alternative arrangements should be made for access to emergency services.

CC10CC10

CC10

How much telephone equipment

can you have in your home?

Each item is marked (usually on the base) with a REN number. For example, your CC10 is REN 1 and most BT phones are REN 1. The REN numbers of all your equipment, added up, must not exceed 4. Otherwise you’ll overload your line and your equipment may not work properly.

Thunderstorms

Unplug your CC10 from the telephone socket during thunderstorms: if lightning strikes your phone line, it could damage the machine. Your

guarantee does not cover lightning damage.

1. Insert aerial into the hole at the top of the handset and Tighten the base

ring finger tight.

2. Set the handset On/Off switch to On.

3. Leave the handset on the main base unit for 24 hours. Note: The Charge light will stay on even after the handset is fully charged.

4. Pick up the handset, push the On/Off switch to Off for a few seconds then back to On.

5. Place the handset on the main base unit charge recess. The Charge light will come on and you'll hear a beep*.

If you do not hear a beep:

¨ Leave the handset on the main base unit for 20 minutes. ¨ Pick up the handset, push the On/Off switch to Off for a few seconds

then back to On. Replace the handset back on the base and you'll hear a beep.

Repeat Step 2 item 4 and 5, for each additional handset you may have - after charging for 24 hours in a pod charger or the main base unit charging recess.

Note: The beep is to confirm that the handset is permanently linked, for communication, to the main base unit. Please also note that the linking for communication can only be made by placing the handset on the main base unit and not one of the remote pod chargers.

STEP 3 : Plug into your telephone socket

1. Plug into your telephone socket.

¨ The plug only fits in one way round. ¨ If the plug doesn't fit your telephone

socket, contact BT or your telephone network provider.

2. Extend the base aerial vertically. Your CC10 is now ready for use.

Separate handset battery charger

A separate handset battery charger may be supplied with your telephone, or alternatively, is available as an option. This lets you keep the handset charged away from the base unit. The charger is designed for indoor use only.

The charger is fitted with a permanently wired power adaptor. The power adaptor should be plugged into a mains power socket and the supply switched on. Note: This separate charger is to be used as a remote charging function only and cannot be used to set up the handset communication link. This can only be done by placing the handset onto the main base unit. (See step 2).

When the handset is placed in the charger, a red light will come on after 5 to 10 seconds to show that charging is taking place. The light will remain on even when the battery is fully charged.

IMPORTANT: Should the power adaptor or lead become damaged, the entire charger must be replaced. Do not attempt to replace the lead or fit any type of replacement adaptor/plug.

To make a call

¨ Extend the handset aerial, press Talk/End, await dial tone and dial.

The In Use lights on the base unit and handset come on. (To show communication link is made.)

To answer a call

¨ Lift handset, extend the aerial and speak. (If the handset was off the base

unit or charger, press any button before speaking).

To end a call

¨ Press Talk/End. Or put the handset on the base unit or charger. ¨ Make sure the In Use light goes out.

Caution: be careful not to bend the aerial. Push it back in very gently.

When and how to charge the handset

When to charge it

¨ When it’s new, charge it for 24 hours. ¨ An overnight charge will usually be enough for at least the next day’s

use.

¨ If the Battery Low light comes on (you’ll also hear beeps), charge the

handset immediately for several hours.

The handset contains a special battery. When your handset needs charging more and more often, it’s time to change its battery. Call us on 01707 384438 and we’ll explain how.

How to charge it

1 Set the handset Off/On switch is set to On. 2 Put the handset on the main base unit or separate charger (if applicable).

¨ Keep the base unit and handset charging contacts clean: use a soft cloth.

The base unit lights : what they mean

when they’re on

Power: it’s switched on. Charge: the handset’s (charged or) charging. In Use: the telephone’s in use. Page: flashes when you press Page or receive a call.

Paging the handsetPaging the handset

Paging the handset

Pressing Page makes the handset ring about 25 times (the ring’s different to a phone call ring). It’s useful if you want to alert the person with the handset - or find a lost handset!

If you have more than one handset, all handsets will ring. If you wish to cancel paging, press Page again.

USEUSE

USE

Reducing interference

In general

¨ Fully extend the handset and base aerials. ¨ Do not install the base close to other electrical equipment or fluorescent

lights.

¨ Try moving the main base unit to another room (if you have a telephone

socket).

During a call (you may hear beeps) ¨ Move nearer to the main base unit. ¨ Try pressing Chan/Func twice.

Always ensure that the base unit aerial is full extended to give maximum

range.

If you move out of range (calls become noise with beeps possibly

sounding), you have about 15 seconds to move back into range

otherwise your call may be cut off.

Repositioning the base unit may improve range. CAUTION - Cordless telephones use radio signals and it is possible that these signals can be picked up by certain types of specialist radios enabling your conversations to be overheard.

You may not be able to make 999 or 112 emergency calls if:

¨ The handset battery requires charging. ¨ There is a lot of radio interference. (If this happens, try pressing Chan/

Func twice or move closer to the base unit).

Note: No calls can be made if the mains supply has failed or has become disconnected.
