ate without an electrical connection.

Setting up the handset for use

Fitting the battery pack

Caution:

Use only the rechargeable battery pack recommended by Siemens (page 31). Never use a conventional (non-rechargeable) battery pack, as this may cause significant damage to health and property. For example, the outer casing of the battery pack could be destroyed or the battery pack could explode. The phone could also malfunction or be damaged as a result of using batteries that are not of the recommended type. Use of battery packs not authorized by Siemens may void the warranty on this product.

¤ Insert the plug into the socket as shown

in the enlarged view.

¤ Insert the battery pack. ¤ Place the cords in the cord routing.

Closing the battery cover

¤ Hold the battery cover at a slight angle

and install the two lower clips into the

casing first. Then close the cover, press

on the top so that it clicks into place.

Locking the battery cover

Insert the catches on the lock ring or belt clip into the notches in the casing and make sure that the arrow markings on the casing are facing those on the bottom of the ring. Turn the lock ring or belt clip clockwise to the end stop. When both holes are horizontally aligned with the upper edge of the handset the lock ring is closed.

Page 8

First Steps

Opening the battery cover

Position both thumbs on the lock ring and simultaneously turn the lock ring or belt clip anticlockwise and remove.

¤ Insert a coin into the cavity at the top of

the battery cover and twist it until the cover opens.

Placing the handset in the base station and registering

¤ Place the handset in the base with its

display facing outwards.

The handset registers automatically. Registration takes around 1 minute. During this time Regstr.Procedure appears in the display and the name of the base station flashes, for example Base 1. The handset will be assigned the lowest unassigned internal intercom number (1–6).

This will appear in the display when registration is complete, for example INT 1. This means that the number 1 has been assigned. If the internal numbers 1–6 are already assigned to other units, the number 6 is overwritten.

Notes:

– Automatic registration is only possible if

no-one is making calls using the base station.

– Each key press interrupts the automatic

registration.

– If automatic registration does not work the

handset will need to be registered manually (page 18).

– You can change the name of the handset

(page 21).

Leave the handset in the base station to charge the battery pack.

Notes:

– If the handset has switched itself off

because the battery has no charge, and is then placed in the base station, it will switch itself on automatically.

– The handset must only be placed in the

designated base.

For questions and problems see page 30.

Headset socket

Which headsets are compatible? The following headsets have been tested with the S45:

u Plantronics M40 u Plantronics MX100 u Plantronics MX150

If you do not connect a headset, please insert the cover supplied for the headset socket to support the splash proof feature.

Initial charging and discharging of the battery pack

If the handset is activated, the flashing battery icon e in the top right of the display indicates that the battery pack is being charged.

During handset operation, the battery icon indicates the charge status of the battery pack (page 1). The correct charge status can only be displayed if the battery pack is first fully charged and discharged.

¤ To do this, leave the handset in the

base station continuously for ten

hours. Your handset need not be

switched on for it to charge.

¤ Afterwards, remove the handset from

the base station and do not put it back

again until the battery pack is fully dis-

charged.

Note:

After the initial charge and discharge you may replace your handset in the base station after every call.

Using a handset as a room monitor

If the room monitor is activated, a previously stored destination number is called as soon as a set noise level is reached. You can store an internal or external number in your handset as the destination number.

The room monitor call to an external number stops after approx. 90 seconds. The room monitor call to an internal number (handset) stops after approx. 3 minutes (depending on the base station). While the room monitor is activated, all keys are locked except the end call key. The handset's speaker is muted.

When the room monitor is activated, incoming calls to the handset are indicated without a ringtone and are only shown on the screen. The display and keypad are not illuminated and advisory tones are also turned off.

If you accept an incoming call, the room monitor mode is suspended for the duration of the call, but the function remains activated.

If you switch off the handset, the room monitor mode is deactivated. You will need to reactivate the function after switching on the handset again.

Caution:

– You should always check the operation

of the room monitor before use. For example, test its sensitivity. Check the connection if you are diverting the room monitor to an outside number.

– When the function is switched on the hand-

set's operating time is severely reduced. If necessary, place the handset in the charging cradle. This ensures that the battery pack will not run down.

– Ideally the handset should be positioned

1 to 2 meters away from the sound being monitored. The microphone must be directed towards the monitored sound.

– The connection to which the room monitor

is diverted must not be blocked by an activated answering machine.

FCC / ACTA Information

Warning: Changes or modifications to this

unit not expressly approved by Siemens Cordless Products could void the FCC authority to operate the equipment. This includes the addition of any external antenna device.

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the bottom of the base station is a label that contains, among other information, a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be provided to the telephone company. A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network nust comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to a compatible modular jack that is also compliant. See installation instructions for details.

The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company. For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for this product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on the label.

If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance, that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But if advance notice isn’t practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you belive it is necessary. The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens the telephone company will provide advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service. If you experience trouble with this telephone system, disconnect it from the network until the problem has been

corrected or until you are sure that the equipment is not malfunctioning.

If trouble is experienced with this equipment, for repair or warranty information, please contact Siemens Customer Care, Tel. 1-866 247

8758. If the equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may request that you disconnect the equipment until the problem is resolved. This equipment is of a type that is not intented be repaired by the Customer (user).

This telephone system may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company. Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission, public service commission or corporation commission for information. Privacy of communications may not be ensured when using this phone. If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, ensure the installation of this equipment does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone company or a qualified installer.

This telephone system equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TV’s and VCR’s; to minimize or prevent such interference, the system base should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR; and, if interference is experienced, moving the base farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this telephone system does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the system off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

2. Increase the separation between the base station and receiver.

Page 34

Appendix
