Important information

Important information

Trademarks

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.

Caller list

If you are unable to accept an external or internal call, the call attempt is
stored in the caller list.
You can also store external calls that you have answered in the caller list
(contact your service personnel).

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 14 in the idle menu
Æ page 37.

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.
