RP7510
Congratulations on choosing a Geemarc RP7510. We at Geemarc want you to get the
most out of our product. And that’ s why we’ve de veloped a manual that’s easier to use. So
please take the trouble to read it - and enjo y your RP7510 to the full.
What you can use your RP7510 with and what you can’t
Y ou can use your RP7510 with:
• private lines
• business lines
•
compatible, approved P ABXs . If you have a prob lem, contact your P ABX
supplier.
Y our line must accept tone dialling. If y ou have a problem, contact your telephone company .
Do not use y our RP7510 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 (also see 'Additional safety', page 15)
• Before plugging in, make sure your electricity supply is 230v 50Hz AC.
• Never use outdoors.
• Nev er change the length of the adaptor flex or use a different adaptor.
Where to put your RP7510 and how to look after it
• T o wall-mount your RP7510, use the template at the back of the man ual.
Run the flexes through the channels underneath the machine. After wall
mounting the unit, slide out, turn over and slide back in, the handset clip
(this can be found in the base unit just below where the earpiece locates), to
ensure that the handset stays firmly in position when placed in the cradle.
• Keep it aw ay from heat, dust and damp.
• Clean it with a soft cloth (try not to press the buttons).
• Never use polish or cleaning agents - they could damage the finish or the
electrics inside.
Note - We advise that the machine be placed on a tab le cloth or similar, as rubber feet can
mark some surfaces.
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 RP7510
is REN 1 and most BT phones are REN 1. The REN numbers of all your equipment, added
up, must not e xceed 4. Otherwise you’ll overload your line and your equipment ma y not
work properly.
Thunderstorms
Unplug your RP7510 from the telephone socket during thunderstorms: if lightning strikes
your phone line, it could damage the machine. Y our guarantee does not cover lightning
damage.

Setting up
Setting up: follow steps 1-7
Step 1: plug into the mains
• Plug the adaptor lead into the back of the machine (be sure to push the plug fully
in). Set the volume control to mid-position. Then plug the adaptor into the wall
socket and s witch on. Don’t plug into the telephone socket yet.
• The red light comes on, the display will count to 41; there’ll be a beep. Then ‘00'
flashes. alternately with 'Lo'. Wait for the beep before continuing.
Step 2: fit a leak-resistant, alkaline, PP3 battery
Why? Because if you hav e a power cut (or the mains supply is disconnected or switched
off), when power is restored or switched on again,
• you won’t have to re-set the clock;
• you won’t lose your messages; and
• you won’t lose any outgoing message you recorded yourself. (The machine comes
with standard outgoing messages but you can record your own instead.)
The battery will come into use only when the power is cut off and will support the memories
for sev eral hours. The battery will eventually run down if power is not restored. (NB If you
plan to switch the power to the machine off f or lengthy periods, disconnect the machine
from the telephone socket and remov e the battery . Y ou'll have to set the clock and record
any personal outgoing messages when switching the machine on again and refitting the
battery).
• Remove the battery cover (make sure the telephone is not connected to the telephone
socket).
• Fit the PP3 battery . The connector will only fit the correct wa y round.
• Put the cover back on. '00' will flash.
• If the battery is low, ‘Lo’ flashes. Unplug from the telephone socket and replace the
battery as above.
• Dispose of batteries carefully . Never b urn them or let children play with them.
