Warnings
Please do not attempt to unplug any appliance during an electrical storm.
Unplug all electrical appliances when you know an electrical storm is approaching.
Lightning can pass through your household wiring and damage any device connected
to it. This phone is no exception.
Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by Inter-Tel, or
operation of this product in any way other than as detailed by this Operating
Guide, could void your authority to operate this product.
The cords on this product and/or accessories contain lead, a chemical known to
the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Wash hands after handling.
Range Limits
The INT3000 is designed for commercial use. Range has been approved for 150 feet
per Base Unit. Actual range may be less or greater than this distance depending on the
environment. Building wiring, walls, elevators and other electronic interference frequencies may limit the range of this telephone. Please consult your telecommunications consultant for testing of your location.
To maximize the range capability, do the following:
•Locate the Base Unit at the highest point possible in the center of your coverage
zone. If you are planning to cover an outdoor area, such as a car lot, building
grounds, or campus, place the unit near a window and the highest point within the
building.
•Place the Base Unit away from any electronic device. This includes, but is not
limited to, computer screens, radios, electronic signs, coffee pots, microwaves,
and other electronic devices.
NOTICE
CAUTION
WARNING
x
INT3000 Cordless Telephone User Guide
Radio Interference
Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and humming in your cordless
Handset, or clicking noises in the Base Unit. This interference is caused by external
sources such as TV, refrigerator, vacuum cleaner, fluorescent lighting, computer
equipment, or electrical storm. Your unit is NOT DEFECTIVE. If these noises continue and are too distracting, please check around your office to see what appliances
may be causing the problem. In addition, we recommend that the Base not be plugged
into a circuit that also powers a major appliance because of the potential for interference. Be certain that the antenna on the unit is fully extended when needed.
In the unlikely event that you consistently hear other voices or distracting transmissions on your phone, you may be receiving radio signals from another cordless telephone or other source of interference. If you cannot eliminate this type of
interference, you need to change to a different channel.
Finally, it should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that
may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top of a
TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther
away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.
More Than One Cordless Telephone
If you want to use more than one cordless telephone in your office, they must operate
on different channels. Press the channel key to select a channel that provides the
clearest communication.
Privacy
Cordless phones are radio devices. Communications between the Handset and Base
Unit of your cordless telephone are accomplished by means of radio waves which are
broadcast over the open airways. Because of the inherent physical properties of radio
waves, your communications can be received by radio receiving devices other than
your own cordless telephone unit. Consequently, any communications using your
cordless telephone may not be private.
Base Units and Handsets
The Handsets are programmed to work a specific Base Unit. You cannot switch to a
new Handset or a new Base Unit without having it reprogrammed by Inter-Tel.

reduce the risk of fire or injury to persons by the battery, read and follow these
instructions:
•Use only the appropriate type and size Battery Pack specified in this user guide.
•Do not dispose of the Battery Pack in a fire. The cell may explode.
•Do not open or mutilate the Battery Pack. Released electrolyte is corrosive and
may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
•Exercise care in handling the Battery Pack in order not to short the battery with
conducting materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor
may overheat and cause burns.
•Do not charge the Battery Pack used in this telephone in any charger other than
the one provided with it. Using another charger may damage the battery, or cause
the battery to explode.
•Observe proper polarity orientation between the Battery Pack and Battery
Charger.
•Do not short circuit the Battery Pack.

CALL Key
These keys are used for call access. They are not associated with specific lines.
Instead, they are assigned to calls in the order that the calls are placed or received. If
there are more calls in progress than there are CALL keys, new calls wait until a
CALL key becomes available. Pressing an unlit CALL key will enter the programmed
Outgoing Call feature codes for your phone.
Range Limits
If the Handset is at (or beyond) the range limit of the INT3000, you may see a NO
SERVICE message.
•If you are in standby mode, you cannot make or answer calls (the phone may ring
intermittently) until you are back within range of the Base Unit.
•If you are on a call, you hear a warning tone. Move back into range within 20
seconds.
Feature Keys
The keys on your INT3000 are arranged according to a programmed “keymap.” Your
customer service representative, trainer, or system administrator can tell you if your
keymap is different from the layout described in this guide. You can use the diagrams
on the following two pages to note any differences. Some optional feature keys that
you may want to request include:
•Scrolling Keys: If you want to be able to scroll through displays, you need PREVIOUS and NEXT keys.
•Message Key: If you want to leave messages while on a call, scroll through wait-
ing messages, and switch between numeric and alpha characters when entering a
do-not-disturb message or using the directories, you need a MSG key.
•Forward Key: If you use custom do-not-disturb messages or directories, you
will want a FWD key for leaving spaces and for entering two consecutive letters
that appear on the same dialpad key. The FWD key is also used for forwarding
calls.
•User-Programmable Keys: You may want most of the keys to be user program-
mable to allow you to choose the feature codes or extension numbers you dial.
If your INT3000 has been reprogrammed by the installer so that its feature keys do
not match the feature keys described in this user guide, refer to the administrator’s
guide for your phone system for procedures on using feature codes. Default feature
codes are listed on the back of this user guide.
The feature keys on your INT3000 are equipped with lamps. The flash rates of the
lamps indicate the status of the lines, phones, and features assigned to the keys. The
flash rates and their meanings are explained throughout this user guide. For more
detailed flash rate information, refer to your telephone system owner's guide.

Interaction With The Telephone System
•Your telephone system may have one dial tone for both intercom calls and outside calls. Or, it may have two dial tones: (1) When you lift the Handset or press
talk
, you hear intercom dial tone. (2) When you select an outgoing line, you
hear standard outside dial tone.
•Many features are controlled by timers and “time out” if you wait too long before
performing the next step. If this happens, you must start over.
•Four fast tones or repeating fast tones signal that you made a mistake, tried to
select a restricted line, dialed a restricted or invalid number, dialed too slowly
between digits, or waited too long before performing the next step. If you hear
this signal, hang up and try again.
•Your telephone system may be equipped with an optional Inter-Tel voice processing system. If so, you will be provided with a separate Voice Mail user guide that
explains the Voice Mail features.
•The INT3000 has a two-line display with 16-characters per line. The default display shows the extension number, user name, time of day, and date. Other displays include: reminder messages, do-not-disturb messages, numbers dialed, call
sources, elapsed time of calls, current call costs, error messages, etc.
•In this user guide, phone locations are often referred to as “stations.” Each station
in your telephone system has an extension number that allows you to place intercom calls to it. Some stations belong to “hunt groups” that have special extension
numbers which route your call through the stations in the group. Your customer
service representative, trainer, or system administrator can provide you with a list
of extension numbers for your telephone system.

Rechargeable Battery Pack and the Charger
NOTE: You can only use your INT3000 with the Handset when it is out of the Battery
Charger.
The rechargeable Battery Pack must be fully charged before using your INT3000 for
the first time (this requires 6-8 hours).
The unique design of your INT3000 allows you to place the Handset in the Battery
Charger with or without the Belt Clip attached. The Battery Charger also has the ability to charge a second battery, if you plan to purchase one, with or without the Handset being charged. The Battery Packs can automatically be recharged either in or out
of the Handset.
Battery Pack

Adapter
FINDING YOUR WAY
Rechargeable batteries can develop a reduced charge capacity caused by repeated
charge and discharge cycles. The battery life will seem to be shorter every time you
use the unit. To avoid reduced charge capacity, operate the unit until the BATT LOW
indicator appears. Do this at least once a month. Avoid “topping off” the charge after
using the phone for a short time.
Low Battery Indicator
When the Battery Pack in the Handset is low and needs to be charged, you will see a
LOW message on the display. If you are on a call, only the TALK key will operate
and the Handset beeps every 3 seconds. In standby mode, no keys operate and the
Handset beeps every 15 seconds for up to 15 minutes.
Complete your call as quickly as possible and return the Handset to the Battery
Charger for charging, or replace the Handset Battery Pack with another charged Battery Pack.

ABOUT VOICE MAIL
Voice mail is an application that is part of the Inter-Tel Voice Processing Unit. With
the voice mail application, you and other callers can send and receive recorded messages from any station or touch-tone telephone. To use this and other features, each
user (you included) is assigned a “voice mailbox,” which usually corresponds to a
valid extension number. You can, however, have an “unassociated” mailbox that does
not correspond to an extension. Unassociated mailboxes are typically used for agents
or other personnel who don’t have a permanent office.
With your voice mailbox, you can use personal or system greetings to let callers know
if you are out of town, on a call, etc. (see page 43). If a caller reaches your voice mailbox, they can leave a message, hang up, or access an attendant.
In addition, the Voice Mail Administrator can program “group lists” of mailboxes.
With these lists, you can send a message to a group of people by entering one number
instead of everyone’s individual mailbox number.
NOTE: You cannot delete messages that are sent using group lists (see page 34).
