For safety reasons, the telephone should only be supplied
with power:
• using the original power supply unit.
Part number: C39280-Z4-C51x (x: 0=EU, 1=US, 2=UK)
or
• in a LAN with PoE (Power over Ethernet), which complies with the IEEE 802.3af standard.
Never open the telephone or a key module. Should you encounter any problems, contact the responsible service personnel.
Use only original Siemens accessories. The use of other accessories may be hazardous and will render the warranty,
extended manufacturer’s liability and the CE marking invalid.
The device conforms to the EU directive 1999/5/EC as attested by the CE marking.
All electrical and electronic products should be disposed of
separately from the municipal waste stream via designated
collection facilities appointed by the government or the local
authorities.
Proper disposal and separate collection of your old appliance will help prevent potential damage to the environment
and human health. It is a prerequisite for reuse and recycling
of used electrical and electronic equipment.
For more detailed information about disposal of your old appliance, please contact your city office, waste disposal service, the shop where you purchased the product or your
sales representative.
The statements quoted above are only fully valid for equipment which is installed and sold in the countries of the European Union and is covered by the directive 2002/96/EC.
Countries outside the European Union may impose other
regulations regarding the disposal of electrical and electronic equipment.

Important information
Location of the telephone
• The telephone should be operated in a controlled environment with an
ambient temperature between 5°C and 40°C.
• To ensure good speakerphone quality, the area in front of the microphone (front right) should be kept clear. The optimum speakerphone
distance is 50 cm.
• Do not install the telephone in a room where large quantities of dust
accumulate; this can considerably reduce the service life of the telephone.
• Do not expose the telephone to direct sunlight or any other source of
heat, as this is liable to damage the electronic components and the
plastic casing.
• Do not operate the telephone in damp environments such as
bathrooms.
Software update
During a software update, the phone must not be disconnected
from the power supply unit, the LAN line or the phone line.
An update action is indicated by messages on the display and/or by
flashing LEDs.

General information
Intended use
The OpenStage phone is a desktop or wall-mounted unit designed for
speech transmission and for connection to the LAN. Any other use is regarded as unauthorized.
Telephone type
The identification details (exact product designation and serial number) of
your telephone can be found on the nameplate on the underside of the
base unit. Specific details concerning your communications platform can
be obtained from your service technician.
Please have this information ready when you contact our service department regarding faults or problems with the product.
Speakerphone quality and display legibility

(front right) should be kept clear.
The optimum handsfree distance is 20 inches (50 cm).
• Proceed as follows to optimize display legibility:
– Turn the phone to tilt the display. This ensures you have a frontal
view of the display while eliminating light reflexes.
– Adjust the contrast as required Æ page 90.

Using network ports more efficiently
OpenStage 20 has a built-in 10/100 Mbps Ethernet switch. This means
that you can connect a PC to the LAN directly via the phone.
To connect OpenStage 20 to a PC, you require only a commercial
network cable (uncrossed).
Using this connection option saves one network port for each switch used
and requires fewer or shorter network cables when arranged correctly.

Caller list
If you are unable to accept an external or internal call, the call attempt is
stored in the caller list.
You can store answered calls either manually (both internal and external
calls) or automatically (external calls only; contact your service personnel
for details).
Your telephone stores up to ten calls in chronological order. Each call is assigned a time stamp. The most recent entry not yet answered in the list is
displayed first. Multiple calls from the same caller do not automatically
generate new entries in the caller list. Instead, only the most recent time
stamp for this caller is updated and its number incremented.
The caller list is automatically displayed Æ page 16 in the idle menu
Æ page 39.
Callers with suppressed numbers cannot be saved in the call log.
Information is displayed regarding the caller and the time at which the call
was placed.
