1 General Information

Warnings

• The telephone is designed for indoor use only. Do not install the telephone in areas where
there is the risk of an explosion, excessive exposure to smoke, dust, vibrations, chemicals,
moisture and heat.

• Do not install in damp locations such as a bathroom or laundry, do not expose the unit to
direct sunlight.

• Do not use your telephone during an electrical thunderstorm as it is possible to get an
electric shock. Refer to information contained in Telstra White pages directory.

• The earpiece of the handset may attract small metal objects such as staples and pins.
Care should be taken when placing the handset near these items.

Quick connection information

Before installing or changing the battery, make sure that the telephone is not
connected to the telephone network.

First install the battery supplied, connect the curly cord to the phone and the
handset. Connect the line cord to the bottom of the phone and then to the wall
socket using the plug supplied. Lift the handset and check for dial tone.

LOCATION

Do not position the unit in the immediate vicinity of other electronic equipment
such as microwave or hi-fi units as this can lead to mutual interference. The
location has a deciding influence on the trouble-free operation of the telephone.
Stand the telephone on a flat, non-slip surface. The telephone feet do not
normally leave any marks on the surface. However, on account of the multitude
of varnishes and surface finishes used, surface marks caused by the feet of the
unit cannot be ruled out. Do not use the unit in areas where there is the risk of an
explosion. Excessive exposure to smoke, dust, vibrations, chemicals, moisture,
heat or the direct rays of the sun must be avoided.

DISPOSAL

If the useful life of the complete equipment has expired, please dispose of these
carefully in accordance with the statutory requirements and in a manner friendly
to the environment.

Temperature and ambient conditions

The telephone is designed for indoor use (temperature range of -10 °C to 50 °C).
Do not install the telephone in areas where there is the risk of an explosion,
excessive exposure to smoke, dust, vibrations, chemicals, moisture, and heat. The
unit must not be installed in damp locations such as a bathroom or laundry, do
not expose the unit to direct sunlight.

-Operation-

Cleaning and care

The surface of the case can be cleaned with a dry, soft, lint-free cloth. Never use
cleaning agents, particularly aggressive solvents. Apart from occasional cleaning
of the case, no other care is necessary. The rubber feet of the base station are not
resistant to all cleaning agents. The telephone feet do not normally leave any
marks on the surface. However, on account of the multitude of varnishes and
surface finishes used, surface marks caused by the feet of the unit cannot be
ruled out. The manufacturer can therefore not be held responsible for possible
damage to furniture or the like.

connect more than 1 telephone to your telephone line. A standard telephone line
has a maximum REN capacity of 3 (RN of 5). It is possible to connect 3(5) devices
with a REN of 1 (RN of 1) with no degradation to the product’s performance.
Exceeding this limit may cause the volume of the ringer in any phone to decrease
or not ring at all.

local calls as this will incur a charge only the 7 digit number should be dialled.
