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.

Caller ID
3.4 Caller ID service
This unit is compatible with the Caller ID
service offered by your local telephone
company. To use this feature, you must
subscribe to a Caller ID service.
3.4.1 How Caller ID is displayed
The calling party’s telephone number or name
will be displayed after the first ring. You then
have the option of whether or not to answer the
call.
The unit will automatically store caller
information (name, telephone number and the
time of the call) of the 30 most recent calls. Caller
information is sorted by the most recent to the
oldest call. When the 31st call is received, the
first call is deleted. Caller information can be
viewed on the display one item at a time (page
24). You can print the Caller ID list (page 67).
Note:
L If the unit is connected to a PBX (Private
Branch Exchange) system, you may not
receive the caller information. 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.
Note for Australian users:
L Although Telstra and Optus 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 area code will need to be stored with the
8-digit telephone number.
Note for New Zealand users:
L 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 Your telephone service provider may charge
you for a local call when it is dialled with an
area code prefix. If the charge for local call is
unacceptable, only the 7-digits of the local
number should be dialled from your
telephone. Do not dial the “0” prefix or the
area code digit.
