The Mitel 5606 Wireless Handset is a robust, feature-rich handset designed to function in tough environments. It operates in conjunction with a DECT base station and the 3300 ICP. The 5606 is ideal for users who need mobile voice and messaging functions contained in a durable, waterand dust-protected package.

Elements of Your Handset

• To turn the handset ON, press and hold the ON button and then, when prompted, press the Yes soft key.

• To turn the handset OFF, press and hold the OFF button and then, when prompted, press the Yes soft key.

Features and Functions

The 5606 Wireless Handset has the following features:

Antenna: The antennae are integrated inside the handset.

5606 Wireless Handset User Guide

Display: The display is an illuminated 128 x 64 pixels LCD, covered by anti-reflex treated plastic

glass for maximum readability. Display contrast is manually adjustable.

Keypad: The illuminated keypad is ideal for low light environments. When not in use, the keypad can be locked to prevent accidental key presses.

SIM Card: The SIM card contains all personal settings such as phonebook, identity, alert signal and your defined functions for soft keys and hot keys. All personal settings are retained if the SIM card is moved to another handset.

Battery: The battery is a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery.

Contacting Emergency Services

This handset, like any wireless phone, communicates using radio signals. As with any wireless phone, you may not be able to establish a connection under all conditions, therefore, you should not rely solely on a wireless telephone for essential, emergency communication. The key lock feature disables the handset keypad and prevents the accidental dialing of numbers that may result in nuisance calls. It also prevents accidental calls to emergency services numbers like 911, 999, or 112.

To disable the key lock feature, press the key and then press YES.

Currently, mobile IP phones do not support Enhanced 911 (E911) operation. If emergency services are required, it is necessary to keep the system administrator and the location database current.

Tips for your Comfort and Safety

Don't cradle the handset!

Prolonged use of the handset can lead to neck, shoulder, or back discomfort, especially if you cradle the handset between your ear and shoulder. If you use your phone a lot, you may find it more comfortable to use a headset. See the section on headset usage elsewhere in this guide for more information.

Protect your hearing

Your phone has a control for adjusting the volume of the handset receiver or headset. Because continuous exposure to loud sounds can contribute to hearing loss, keep the volume at a moderate level.

Frequency Range

The handset is a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is on, it receives and sends out radio frequency (RF) energy. The handset operates on different frequency ranges depending on market and employs commonly used modulation techniques:

•EU: 1880 - 1900 MHz

• USA: 1920 - 1930 MHz

•LA: 1910 - 1930 MHz

Chemical Resistance

The alpha and numeric characters printed on the exterior of the handset have been tested and found resistant to chipping, fading or wearing off when the handset is treated with common cleaners and disinfectants or perspiration. The following chemicals have shown no harmful effect:

• 3% Hydrochloric Acid

• M-alcohol (70% Methylated Ethanol)

• 60% Chlorhexidin 0.5mg/ml

Acetone can be damaging to the plastic casing of the handset and should not be used.
