Dear purchaser,

You have acquired a KX-TCD715EM, which is a product made in regard with the European Standards for Cordless Telephones (DECT). DECT technology is characterised by high-security protection against interceptions as well as high-quality digital transmission.

This telephone was designed for a wide range of applications.

For example, this telephone can be used within a network of base units and handsets, constituting a telephone system which:

•operates up to 6 handsets at one base unit

•allows an intercom between 2 handsets

•allows the operation of a handset at up to 4 base units, expanding the communication radio area.

This telephone may be used for:

•operating several handsets

•operating at several base units

•connecting the base unit to a PBX.

Important Information

Do not connect the AC adaptor to any AC outlet other than the standard AC 220–240 V, 50 Hz.

Outlet voltage DC 9 V, 200 mA

•The apparatus is approved for use with the PQLV1E power supply.

•CAUTION: Do not remove cover. Live parts inside.

This apparatus has been approved for the use of the following facilities:

1)Storage of names and telephone numbers in the phonebook for retrieval

2)Last number redial

3)Simple telephone facility

4)PBX earth register recall (option) PBX timed break register recall

5)MF signalling

2

6)Pause

7)Intercom

8)Call prohibition

9)Call restriction

10)Direct call

11)Intercom between handsets

12)Transferring a call from one handset to another

13)Conference

14)Setting the call waiting tone

15)Accessing the base unit

16)Caller ID service compatible

Any other usage will invalidate the approval of the apparatus if as a result, it then ceases to conform to the standards against which approval was granted.

KX-TCD715EM-1Preparation1** 01.7.19 2:12 PM Page 3

Method of connection

This is connected to the exchange line or PABX/PMBX (Private Automatic/Manual Branch Exchange) extension by the new standard British Telecom plug and socket. Arrangements for provision of this type of termination can be made through the nearest British Telecom Sales Office. The apparatus may be connected to the following types of installation. The apparatus has been approved for use under the following conditions:

a)This apparatus may be used on telecommunication systems employing MF signalling. It is suitable for connection to a direct exchange line on the PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) or via a compatible PBX (Private Branch Exchange). (Contact the supplier for an up to date list of compatible PBX’s.)

b)This apparatus is not suitable as an extension to a payphone or for use on a party line with shared service.This cordless telephone has been designed to operate on radio frequencies which have been assigned to the exclusive use of cordless telephones. As the use of cordless telephones becomes more widespread users may experience a reduction in the quality of service obtainable from this apparatus.

Although this equipment can use either loop disconnected or DTMF signalling, only the performance of the DTMF signalling is subject to regulatory requirements for correct operation. It is therefore strongly recommended that the equipment is set to use DTMF signalling for access to public or private emergency services. DTMF signalling also provides faster call set up.

999 or 112 can be dialled on the apparatus for the purposes of making outgoing calls to the BT Emergency (999 or 112) Service.

	WARNING:
	The apparatus may be unable to make	Chapter
	emergency 999 or 112 telephone calls,
	under certain conditions, e.g.
	• Radio interference caused by another
	cordless telephone operating on the
	same radio frequency.	1
	• The portable handset battery needs
	recharging, or has failed.
	• The portable handset cannot be used
	while charging.
	• When KEY LOCK is set to ON.
	• When the unit is in Direct Call Mode.
	Any cases of difficulty should be referred
	in the first instance to the supplier of the
	apparatus.
	NOTE:
	If you experience any problems with the
	normal use of your apparatus, you should
	unplug it from the telephone outlet and
	connect a known working telephone in its
	place. If the known working telephone still
	gives problems, then please contact the
	customer service department of your
	PSTN operator. If it operates properly,
	then the problem is likely to be a fault in
	your apparatus. In this case, contact your
	supplier for advice. Your PSTN operator
	may charge you if they attend a service
	call that is not due to apparatus supplied
	by them.

For Best Performance

Battery Charge

Rechargeable Nickel-Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) batteries power the handset. Install the batteries (p. 12) and charge them for about 15 hours before initial use (p. 12).

Base Unit Location

Calls are transmitted between the base unit and the handset using wireless radio waves. For maximum distance and noise-free operation, the recommended base unit location is:

Away from electrical appliances such as a TV, radio, personal computer or another telephone.

In a HIGH and CENTRAL location with no obstructions such as walls.

Operating range:

The range of operation depends on the construction of your home, weather and usage conditions. Normally you will get longer range outdoors than indoors.

Obstacles such as walls, metal shelves or cement-iron walls may shorten the operating range.

Noise:

Occasional noise or interference may occur due to other random radio waves.
