8 Discharged
Recharging the battery
Recharge the battery when: –“Recharge battery” is displayed and
7” flashes on the cordless handset display.
– the cordless handset beeps every 60
seconds while it is in use.
Note:
L Recharge the cordless handset battery
for more than 15 minutes or the display will continue showing the indication.
L When the battery is about to fail, the
cordless handset will display “Charge for 7 hrs” and 8. The cordless handset will not work unless the battery is charged.
Battery performance
After your Panasonic battery is fully charged, you can expect the following performance:
Operation Operating time
While in use
Up to 15 hours
1
(talking)
While not in use (standby)
2
1. Maximum talk time acheived after sev­eral recharge cycles.
2. The cordless handset is off the charger but not in use.
Up to 8 days
Note:
L Battery power is consumed whenever
the cordless handset is off the charger, even when the cordless handset is not in use. The longer you leave the cordless handset off the charger, the shorter you can actually talk on the cordless handset. Actual battery performance depends on a combination of how often the cordless handset is in use and how often it is not in use.
L Once the battery is fully charged, you do
not have to charge it again until “Recharge battery” is displayed and “7” flashes. This will maximize the battery life.
L If you want to keep the battery fully
charged at all times, place the cordless handset on the charger when the cordless handset is not in use. The battery cannot be overcharged.

Caller ID Service

Using caller ID service

This unit is compatible with Caller ID services offered by your telephone service provider. If you subscribe to Caller ID, caller names and phone numbers will be displayed and recorded in the Caller List.
The base unit and each cordless handset can record information of up to 50 different callers in the caller list.
The Caller List information is sorted from the most recent to the oldest call. When the base unit or cordless handset receives the 51st call, the oldest call is deleted.
Using this list, you can automatically call back a caller. You can store the callers’ names and numbers from the Caller List in the Phonebook.
If you subscribe to both Caller ID and Call Waiting services, when a second call is received on the same line, the new caller’s name and phone number are displayed. See “For call waiting service users” on page 41.
How caller information is displayed when a call is received
When a call comes in, the unit will ring and Caller ID information will be displayed. The display shows the caller’s information and the called line after the first ring.
Example (from the base unit):
L After you answer the call, the display will
show the length of the call.
John Smith 1-012-345-6789
--------Line 1--------
Personalized name display
If you receive a call from one of the phone numbers stored in the Phonebook, the base unit/cordless handset will show the caller’s name that has been stored in the Phonebook instead of the incoming caller ID information.
L If the unit cannot receive caller
information, the following will be displayed: “Out of area”: The caller dialed from an area which does not provide Caller ID service. “Private caller”: The caller requested not to send caller information.
L If the unit is connected to a PBX system,
caller information may not be received properly. Consult your PBX supplier.
L If two lines receive calls at the same
time, each caller’s information will be displayed alternately.
L The name display service may not be
available in some areas. For more information, please contact your telephone service provider.
L If the cordless handset loses contact
with the base unit when a call is received, the caller information will not be recorded in the cordless handset’s Caller List.
L Caller ID information will not be
displayed on the base unit when the automated attendant system is responding to a call (page 66). Caller ID information will be displayed on the called cordless handset or the base unit after the caller enters the extension number.
L If caller ID information has been withheld
by the caller, no caller ID information will be displayed.

Base Unit
You can edit a phone number in the caller list by removing its area code and/or the long distance code, “1”.
You can also edit a phone number to store in the Phonebook (page 43).
Caller ID number auto edit feature
Once you call back an edited number, the unit will remember the area code and format of the edited number. Next time someone calls from the same area code, caller information, when reviewed from the Caller List, will be displayed in the same format as the edited number.
You can use this feature to set the unit to ignore the area code of callers in your area code, so that you can call these local numbers using caller information without dialing the area code.
Handset
To activate this feature, you must edit an item in the Caller List (see below), then call that number. After that, calls from that caller’s area code will be edited automatically.
This feature can be turned on or off (page 81). The default setting is ON.
Note:
L The cordless handset and base unit can
remember up to four area codes to be edited. Phone numbers from the four most recently edited area codes will be automatically edited.
L This feature will not be activated until
edited numbers are called back.
L If you move to another area, you can
turn this feature off to erase previously edited area codes. To use this feature again, turn it on and reprogram the area codes you want to edit once again.

Voice Mail System

The Voice Mail System allows you to receive and deliver voice messages using mailboxes. The unit accommodates one general delivery mailbox and a maximum of eight personal mailboxes which are assigned to the registered cordless handsets. The mailbox numbers are the same as the cordless handset numbers.
The Voice Mail System works fully with the Automated Attendant System, which routes incoming calls to a specified mailbox and allows a caller to leave a message (page 66). If a caller does not specify a mailbox, the call is routed to the general delivery mailbox. With the Answering System (page 71), all calls are routed to the general delivery mailbox. You can set either the Automated Attendant System or the Answering System to any line.
If you change the display language (page
24), all voice prompts are heard in the selected language.
Note:
L The maximum number of personal
mailboxes you can use is equal to the number of registered cordless handsets.
The base unit and cordless handset users can use the Voice Mail System by accessing their mailboxes. Each cordless handset user can only access his/her own mailbox. The general delivery mailbox is managed by the base unit user (operator). The cordless handset users can access this mailbox. The following functions are possible:
L listening to messages (pages 52 and
55);
L transferring a message to other
mailboxes (pages 54 and 64);
L delivering your own message to other
mailboxes (page 57).

Voice Mail System

You can also access the Voice Mail System’s features remotely from a touch tone phone (page 63).
Note:
L All messages (greetings, incoming, etc.)
and two way recordings, are stored in digital memory. The total recording time is approximately 100 minutes. The maximum recording time for each call is three minutes. A maximum of 255 messages (including greeting messages) can be recorded.
L The base unit user can monitor incoming
calls that are being recorded in the general delivery mailbox (page 85).
L The base unit user can check the
remaining recording time and number of messages which can still be recorded (page 59).

Setting the mailbox password

Base Unit
To prevent unauthorized people accessing mailboxes and listening to messages remotely from a touch tone phone, assign a 4-digit password (0000-9999) to each mailbox. The default password for the general delivery mailbox is “0000”. The preset password for each mailbox is a 4-digit number using the mailbox number (Example: “1111” for Mailbox 1, “2222” for Mailbox 2). Each password must be unique.
The general mailbox password must be set using the base unit. Personal mailbox passwords must be set using cordless handsets.

Automated Attendant System

How the Automated Attendant System works

The Automated Attendant System is a flexible communication tool that can enhance your productivity by improving your call management. The Automated Attendant answers incoming calls and then routes the callers to the base unit or the desired cordless handset.
The base unit plays the role of operator with the cordless handsets as the extensions. The extension numbers are the same as the cordless handset numbers (page 25). Callers can reach the desired mailbox using the Automated Attendant System to leave messages.
The Automated Attendant System can be assigned to any line (page 67). If you change the display language (page 24), all voice prompts are heard in the selected
language.
Calling the Automated Attendant
When a caller calls a line to which the Automated Attendant System is assigned, the caller will first hear a greeting message. You can record this message yourself or use the pre-recorded message (page 67).

Answering System

Setting the Answering System

The Answering System can be set to answer calls with a greeting message. Callers can leave a message in the general delivery mailbox. The Answering System can be assigned to any line. The number of times the unit rings before the Answering System answers a call can be set from “2” to “7” or to “Toll saver” (default).
Note: L When the unit is called remotely from a
touch tone phone, if the unit answers on the second ring, there is at least one new message in the general delivery mailbox. If the unit answers on the fourth ring, you have no new messages. Hang up when you hear the third ring. This will save you the toll charge for the call.
Up to five greeting messages of up to two minutes each can be stored. The same messages can be used for the Automated Attendant System (page 67).
If you do not record a greeting message, the following pre-recorded greeting will be used:
Hello, we are not available now. Please
leave your name and phone number after the beep. We will return your call.
