Important information (for Australian users)
Instructions to customer
Installation
Attached to this apparatus is an approval label. This label is evidence that it is a “Permitted Attachment”
which has been authorised to be connected to your telephone service.
Conditions relating to connection and operation of this Permitted Attachment are contained in
Telecommunications General By-Law 220 (5).
You are authorised to install this Permitted Attachment yourself by plugging it into the line socket of any
regular telephone. You may connect it in place of your existing telephone or to any spare telephone
socket installed in your premises.
To disconnect your existing telephone you must first remove its plug from the line socket. You can then
insert the plug of your Permitted Attachment into the socket and use your equipment.
If the plug of your existing telephone cannot be readily removed, you will have to remove the screw
securing it. To do this proceed as follows:
1. Loosen screw “A” sufficiently to remove the socket cover. (See Fig. 1.)
2. Remove screw “B” and withdraw the plug. (See Fig. 2.)
3. Replace screw “B”. (See Fig. 3.) Ensure that it screws completely into the socket recess. (If the screw
is too long, increase the hole depth or replace the screw with one 5 mm shorter.)
4. Replace socket cover and tighten screw “A”. (See Fig. 4.)
SOCKET
SCREW “A”
If you are satisfied with the operation of your telephone service after plugging in your Permitted
Attachment, your installation is completed.
You will be unable to connect this Permitted Attachment if your telephone service consists only of a wall
phone or an old style telephone which is not connected by means of a modern plug and socket. In such
cases a new socket will need to be installed.
Should the Permitted Attachment not operate when plugged into a socket, it is either faulty or unsuitable
for operation with your telephone service. It should be returned to the store where purchased.

Service difficulties
If at any time a fault occurs on your telephone service carry out the following checks before you call for
service:
L Disconnect the Permitted Attachment and try using the service with the normal telephone.
L
If the telephone service then operates satisfactorily, the fault is in your Permitted Attachment. Leave the
Permitted Attachment disconnected and report the fault to its supplier or agent to arrange for repair.
L If when using the telephone the service is still faulty, report the fault to “Service Difficulties and Faults”
for attention.
You are required to keep this Permitted Attachment in good working order while it is connected to your
telephone service. Its construction or internal circuit must not be modified in any way without permission.
WARNING
This cordless telephone system does not incorporate provision for secrecy of conversations.
Appropriately tuned radio equipment and other cordless telephone systems in close proximity may be

CallerID
3.7 Caller ID service
This unit is compatible with the Caller ID service
offered by your local telephone company. To use this
unit’s Caller ID features, you must subscribe to a
Caller ID service.
For New Zealand users:
For all local and national incoming calls, your display will
show the area code (e.g. 09 for Auckland) or the cellular
prefix (e.g. 0274 for Telecom Cellular) followed by the
caller’s telephone number. An Auckland caller’s number
will be displayed as 09XXXXXXX. The seven X’s
represent the seven digits of the caller’s telephone
number. A caller from a 6-digit Telecom Cellular number
will be displayed as 0274XXXXXX. For incoming
international calls, your display may only show “0000”.
For business users on a Centrex line, your display will
show Centrex extension numbers in the shorter
extension number format used within your company.
–Caller information will not be presented on incoming
fax calls if Telecom FaxAbility is used.
–Although Telecom New Zealand and TelstraClear do
not currently send caller name information, the
caller’s name will be displayed as stored in the
directory, when a call from that caller is received.
L The name display service may not be available in
some areas. For further information, please contact
your telephone company.
3.7.1 How Caller ID is displayed
The calling party’s name or telephone number will be
displayed after the 1st ring. You have the option of
whether or not to answer the call.
The unit will automatically store caller information
(name, telephone number, date and time of the call) from
the 50 most recent callers.
It is possible to view caller information one at a time on
the display (page 25) or print the entire Caller ID list
(page 75).
L When caller information is received and it matches a
telephone number stored in the unit’s phonebook,
the stored name will be displayed and logged.
L If the unit is connected to a PBX (Private Branch
Exchange) system, caller information may not be
received properly. Consult your PBX supplier.
L If the unit cannot receive caller information, the
following will be displayed:
“OUT OF AREA”: The caller dialled from an area
which does not provide Caller ID service.
“PRIVATE CALLER”: The caller requested not to
send caller information.
“LONG DISTANCE”: The caller made a long distance
call.
Note for Australian users:
L The area code will need to be stored with the 8-digit
telephone number.
Note for New Zealand users:
L Your telephone company may charge you for a local
call if the number dialled has the area code prefix
included. If this is unacceptable, dial only the 7-digit
local number. Do not dial the {0} prefix or the area
code.
Missed calls
If a call is not answered, the unit treats the call as a
missed call. The number of missed calls is shown on the
display. This lets you know if you should view the caller
list to see who called while you were out.
To confirm caller information by printing the Caller
ID list (Base unit only)
–To print manually, see page 75.
–To print automatically after every 50 new calls,
activate feature #26 (page 48).
Call Waiting Caller ID feature (KX-FC225AL only)
If you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call Waiting
services, when a second call is received during a
conversation, you will hear a call-waiting tone and the
display will show the second caller’s information.
You can answer the second call, keeping the first call on
hold. Follow your service provider/telephone company
instructions using {R} on the cordless handset or
{RECALL} on the base unit.
Note:
L The second caller’s information will not be displayed
when:
–the first call is placed on hold,
–the answering machine is recording an incoming
message,
–an extension telephone on the same line is in
use, or
–you are sending or receiving a fax document.
Using Caller ID type II (KX-FC225AL only)
When you receive a second call during a conversation,
you will hear a signal tone following the call waiting tone
and the conversation will be interrupted or muted for a short period of time. This is not the fault of the
product as these events are normal.
Note:
L The tones are generated by the service provider.
3.8 Viewing and calling back
Important:
L If the area code of the received telephone
number is the same as yours, the area code may
need to be deleted before calling back. This may
only apply to some areas. To edit the number, see
page 26.

please note the following:
“call minder” and “message mailbox” are automatic

tone (special dial tone) to indicate that you have new
messages. When you have new messages, 0 will be
displayed on the handset. Please consult your service
provider/telephone company for details of this service.
Note for Australian users and New Zealand users:
L If 0 still remains on the display even after you
have listened to new messages, turn it off by
pressing and holding {C/T} for 2 seconds.

For voice mail/call minder service subscribers
To receive voice mail/call minder and use answering
system properly, please note the following:
–To use the voice mail/call minder service provided by
your service provider rather than this unit’s
answering system, leave your answering machine off
on your unit.
This will allow the voice mail/call minder to receive
any messages.
This unit does not have a visual indicator to indicate
if there are new messages in your voice mail/call
minder service. Your service provider/telephone
company may use a “Stutter” dial tone to indicate that
you have voice mail/call minder left.
–To use this unit’s answering system rather than the
voice mail/call minder service provided by your
service provider, please consult your service
provider to deactivate your voice mail/call minder
service.
If your service provider cannot do this, change the
ring count in TAM/FAX mode(page 44, feature #06 on
page 46) to a shorter duration on your unit so that
this unit’s answering system answers calls before the
service provider’s voice mail/call minder service tries
to answer your calls. It is necessary to check the
number of rings required to activate the voice
mail/call minder service provided by your service
provider before changing this setting.
Note:
L Provider voice mail/call minder can capture
messages that can be missed while the customer is
on the Internet.
To turn ON the auto answer setting
1. Call your unit and let it ring 10 rings.
L A beep will sound.
2. Enter the remote operation ID (page 44, feature #11
on page 47) within 10 seconds.
L The receiving mode will be set to TAM/FAX or
FAX ONLY mode, depending on the setting of
feature #77 (page 51).
