09 for Auckland) or the cellular prefix (e.g. 025 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 call from a 7-digit Telecom Cellular number will be displayed as 025XXXXXXX. For
incoming international calls put, your display may only show the digits “0000”. For
business users on a Centrex line, your display will show the Centrex extension numbers

same telephone line then you can extend the operating range of the system by
positioning the bases so that the two radio cells overlap. If the handset is set to AUTO
base selection, then in standby mode the handset will automatically swap to the second

Walkie-Talkie
The Walkie-Talkie feature allows handsets to communicate with each other outside the
range of the base unit. When the handsets are in Walkie-Talkie mode, external calls
cannot be received. Only KX-A145NZ handset with Walkie-Talkie feature can
communicate with one another. Talk time in this mode is approximately 6 hours.
Range:
The maximum range between two handsets whilst in Walkie-Talkie mode is up to
50 metres indoors and 300 metres outdoors.
Set the Walkie-Talkie Mode
You can set the Walkie-Talkie mode. There are two types. Common Base Station mode
and Group mode. The factory preset is Group mode.
- In Common Base Station mode, communication is possible between handsets
registered to a common base unit. If the handsets are registered to more than one
base unit, the same base unit must be selected.
Please note, the feature will not operate if AUTO is set in the base unit selection.
If Common mode is selected and the handset is not registered to a base unit, an error
tone sounds.
- In Group mode, communication is possible between handsets that are both set to this
mode and whose Group ID’s are common.
This allows the handsets not to be dependent upon the base unit to which they are
registered and can operate outside of the base unit range.
