1 Important Safety Information
Only use this product in countries where the appropriate
authorities have given their authorisation.
The A9 symbol on the product certifies its conformity with the
Australian technical requirements concerning user safety and
electro-magnetic compatibility valid at the time of approv al.
Sensitive
Electronic
Environment
Any radio-based equipment can potentially cause interference
with other equipment and can be interfered from other equipment. This also applies for DECT equipment. However due to
the very low transmission power level the chan
ence are very small. Research proves that operational DECT
phones normally don't influence electronic equipment however
some precautions must be taken into account for sensitive
electronic equipment e.g. sensitive laboratory equipment.
When DECT phones operate in
electronic equipment incidental influence can
advised not to place the DECT phone on or close (less then
10cm) to this kind of equipment, even in standby mode.
Please also use the other documentation supplied with the various parts of your telephone system.

Safety
Precautions
• Do not open the handset or charger, this could expose you
to high voltages. Have all repairs carried out by authorized
service personel.
• Do not allow the charger and the battery contacts to come
into contact with conductive objects such as keys, paper
clips, rings or bracelets.
• Do not allow the handset and charger to come into contact
with water or chemicals.
ly use the plug-in AC adapter DVE Model No: DV-7515RSAA.
• On
Only use rechargable batteries type, AAA, 1.2V, NiMH, 800mAh.
•
• Do not use AC adapters which are visibly damaged (cracked
or broken housing) and keep the ventilation slits on the
plug-in AC adapters free.
• Do not use the handsets in vehicles or in hazardous locations.
• This product contains magnetic material. Be aware that small
metallic objects may stick for example to the loudspeaker.
This may deteriorate the audio quality and can be harmfull.
Usage Like all other cordless telephones, this handset uses radio
signals which do not guarantee a connection set-up under
all circumstances. Generally, you should therefore not rely
exclusively on cordless telephones when making indispensable
calls (e.g. medical emergencies).

2Installation
Installation
Location
Commissioning
your Handset
Place the charger on a flat, even surface. Do not install the
charger, handset and accessories in the proximity of:
• Water, moisture or damp areas.
• Sources of heat, direct sunlight or unventilated areas.
• Devices which generate strong magn et ic fields , elec tr ical
appliances, fluorescent lamps, computers, radios, televisions
or fax and telephone terminals.
• Areas where the handset can be covered, its ventilation is
impaired and liquid can get inside.
• Areas where there is excessive dust and areas subject to
vibration, shock or extreme temperature fluctuations.
• Install / keep the handset and accessories out of reach of
small children.
Your handset is only operational after the batteries have been
charged. You can then use the handset to make and receive
calls.
Placing the batteries in the handset
The battery compartment is on
the back of the handset. It
takes the three type AAA batteries which are supplied.
Please refer to the Important
Battery Information on page 7.
Opening the battery compartment cover:
Insert a suitable item (e.g. the
top of a ballpoint-pen) into the
hole at the bottom of the compartment cover (1). Push it in
and lift the cover at the same
time (2).
Inserting the batteries:
Insert the batteries in the battery compartment, taking care
to observe the correct polarity.
The + - poles of the batteries
must correspond to the + markings in the battery compartment.
5
Closing the battery compartment cover:
Replace the cover by placing it
on the compartment at a slight
angle (1) and pressing it down
until it clicks into place (2).
Note: if the batteries are inserted incorrectly, the handset will
not function, and may be damaged.
Installing the
Charger
To operate the charger a mains connection is required.
Check if the mains voltage
does match the adapter mains
voltage.
Connect the cable on the
plug-in AC adapter to the terminal on the bottom of the
charger and plug the AC
adapter into the mains socketoutlet.

3 Important Battery Information
Note: use only rechargable AAA NiMh battery of typical 800
mAh, 1.2 V. Never use a battery which is damaged or worn
out.
Heat or cold reduces the performance and service life of the
batteries. It is possible that a handset with hot or cold batteries
can be temporarily out of operation even if the batteries are fully
charged.
Used batteries should be disposed of in accordance with local
authority regulations. Hand them in for recycling!
Do not throw batteries in a fire.
Charging and
Discharging
The batteries can be charged and di scharged hundreds of
times, but sooner or later they will be worn out. If the operating
time (i.e. talk and standby time) is significantly shorter than
usual, then it is time to replace the batteries.
To maintain optimum operating time, the batteries should be
discharged from time to time by not placing the handset in the
charger but leaving it switched on until it switches itself off.
Only use this method to discharge the batteries.
Extreme temperatures influence the charging capability of the
batteries.
7
4 Charging the Batteries
Initial Setup
and Operation
Charging and
Operating
Times
Charge the batteries approximately 6 to 7 hours before initial
use of the handset. This protective measure extends the service life of the batteries.
The maximum power output is only attained after three to five
charging and discharging cycles.
Place the handset regularly in the charger thus ensuring optimum charging of the batteries.
When replacing the batteries, pay attention to the correct
polarity. It is essential to make sure that only battery types
approved by the manufacturer are used.
Use only rechargable AAA NiMh battery of 800 mAh, 1.2 V. The
manufacturer does not accept liability for malfunctions or damage caused by using other battery types or normal batteries.
Charging time: (empty batteries) to full capacity in app rox.
6 to 7 hours.
Talk time: approx. 20 hours (with fully charged batteries).
Standby time: from 200 up to 300 hours (with fully charged
batteries).
Charge Display The charge status of the batteries is indicated by ƒ on the
display. This means:
ƒ batteries fully charged (80 – 100 %)
„ batteries 60 – 80 %
A batteries 40 – 60 %
… batteries 20 – 40 %
† batteries 0 – 20 %
†
(frame flashes) batteries are empty: alert tone has been given.

Battery
Capacity Icon
When batteries are replaced, no icon will be displayed befor e a
complete charge cycle has been completed, except when
almost empty batteries are inse rted in the phon e, then the ico n
will be shown immediately.
When the battery capacity icon is displayed the indication is
reliable.
If charged batteries are inserted, the batteries can become hot
during the first charge cycle, and if the fully charged batt erie s
are removed from the phone and inserted again, the batteries
can become overcharged.
Charge
Warning
When the batteries’ capacity is almost exhausted, an acoustic
warning is given in the form of 3 short ”beep” signals (only during a call). Approximately 5 minutes of talk time is left.

5 Initial Setup and Operation
The handset can be operated on up to 10 different DECT systems. To do so, it has to be registered to each DECT system.
Handset
Registration
Register the handset on the DECT system as described in
