1.1 Audience
This guide is intended for everyday users as well as system administrators.

2 Making Handset Ready
In this chapter we briefly describe how to prepare the handset for use, install, and how to insert and charge new batteries.
2.1 Package - Contents/Damage Inspection
2.1.1 Before Package Is Opened
Examine the shipping package for evidence of physical damage or mishandling prior to opening. If there is proof of mishandling prior to opening, you must report it to the relevant support center of the regional representative or operator.
2.1.2 Contents of Package
Make sure all relevant components are available in the package before proceeding to the next step. In principle, every shipped base unit package/box contains the following items:
1 x Handset Unit 1 x Battery 1 x Charger 1 x A/C Adaptor 1 x Belt Clip Cover 1 x Pull Cord Cover 1 x Belt Clip 1 x Svirvel for belt clip 2 x Mounting Screws
Version 1.2 Page | 6
2.1.3 Damage Inspection
The following are the recommended procedure for you to use for damage inspection:
1. Examine all relevant components for damage.
2. Make a “defective on arrival - DOA” report or RMA to the operator. Do not move the shipping
carton until it has been examined by the operator. The operator/regional representative will initiate the necessary procedure to process this RMA. They will guide the network administrator on how to return the damaged package if necessary.
3. If no damage is found then unwrap all the components and dispose of empty
package/carton(s) in accordance with country specific environmental regulations.
2.2 Before Using the Phone
The following are the precautions users should read before using the handset:
2.2.1 Installing the Battery
1. Never dispose battery in fires, otherwise it will explode.
2. Never replace the batteries in potentially explosive environments, e.g. close to inflammable
liquids/gases.
3. ONLY use approved batteries and chargers from the vendor or operator.
4. Do not disassemble, customize or short circuit the battery
2.2.2 Using the Charger
Each handset is charged through the use of a handset charger. The charger is a compact desktop unit designed to charge and automatically maintain the correct battery charge levels and voltage. The handset charger is powered by AC supply from 110-240VAC that supplies 5.5VDC at 600mA. When charging the battery for the first time, it is necessary to leave the handset in the charger for at least 10 hours before the battery is fully charged, and the handset is ready for use.
2.2.3 Handset in the Charger
For correct charging, ensure that the room temperature is between 0°C and 25°C / 32°F and 77°F. Do not place the handset in direct sunlight. The battery has a built-in heat sensor which will stop charging if the battery temperature is too high.
If the handset is turned off when placed in charger, the handset turns on and shows (shortly) the charging message “The battery is charging”. After a while the display backlight first dim and then turns off (if demo mode is not enabled). There will be response for e.g. incoming calls.
If the handset is turned on when placed in charger, the display shows (shortly) the charging message
“The battery is charging”. After a while the display backlight first dim and then turns off if unless “Idle Screen Saver” is switched on.

2.2.4 How to Open Back Cover
1. Twist the back-cover lock to open position and lift back cover away from the handset.
2. Remove Back Cover from Handset
2.2.5 How to Replace Battery
Remove the back cover from the handset as showed in section 2.2.4 How to Open Back Cover above. Then remove the old battery and replace with a new one.
2.2.6 Handset IPEI Number and SD Card
The serial number and IPEI/IPUI number of each handset is found either on a label, which is placed behind the battery, or on the packaging label. First, lift off handset back cover and lift the battery and read the serial number.
An SD Card can be inserted behind the battery as well.

6.2 Central Directory
In the “Central directory” menu different contacts can be called according to which list the system administrator has setup in the base system. This menu can be entered directly from idle with the
middle softkey , or from the menu by pressing the menu activity key and choosing “Central directory”.
6.2.1 LDAP Mode and Local Mode
The “Central directory” can be set to LDAP Mode or Local Mode via the web interface of the base station (see [3] for additional information on this).
When set to LDAP mode, opening the central directory will show a search screen as displayed in the
following. By leaving the search field empty and pressing the middle softkey “Search” all the contacts
in the central directory will be displayed.
Version 1.2 Page | 22
NOTE: When the central directory is in LDAP mode pressing right softkey “Back” the handset will return to the “Search” field, and a new search for a contact can be made. Pressing the red “On-hook” button, in the central directory, will send the user back to idle.
If the central directory instead of LDAP Mode is set to Local mode, opening the central directory will get you directly to browsing mode, and to enter the search mode press the middle softkey as displayed below.
The search function is similar in these two modes. When typing something in the search field, and pressing search the results of the search will be displayed. This is showed in the following images.
Version 1.2 Page | 23
To scroll through the search results use the navigation keys up and down and you will scroll through the list. If a green arrow is seen to the right of a contact (as seen above), this contact has more than one number added, and to scroll through these different numbers use the left/right navigation keys.
6.2.2 Calling a Contact in the Central Directory

If a contact has more numbers added a green arrow is shown to the right of the contact, and by pressing the right/left navigation keys it is possible to navigate between the different numbers assigned to that contact. The number that currently appears on the screen is the one that is called
6.2.3 Line
By pressing the left softkey “Line” it is possible to choose different lines for the call to be made through as for example if the handset is assigned to different extension numbers, or to different PBX’s; as illustrated in the picture below. By choosing one of these different lines the call is then routed through the selected one. The line that is set in Settings > Line is used as default.
To see additional information on this “Line” feature, and more about the “Central Directory” setup on the base station please check the user manual for the base station; reference [3].
