Read the safety precautions and the user guide before use. Explain their
content and the potential hazards associated with using the telephone to
your children.
Use only the power adapter supplied.
Use only rechargeable batteries that correspond to the specification pro-vided on page 48, as this could otherwise result in significant health risks
and personal injury.
Using your telephone may affect nearby medical equipment. Be aware of
the technical conditions in your particular environment e.g., doctor's surgery.
Do not hold the rear of the handset to your ear when it is ringing or when
handsfree mode is activated. This may cause serious and permanent damage to your hearing.
Your telephone is compatible with the majority of digital hearing aids on
the market. However, perfect function with all hearing aids cannot be guaranteed.
The handset may cause interference in analogue hearing aids. If you require
assistance, please contact the hearing aid supplier.
Do not install the charger in bathrooms or shower rooms. The charger is not
splashproof (¢ page 47).
Do not use your phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard
(e.g., paint shops).
If you give your phone to a third party, make sure you also give them the
user guide.
Remove faulty bases from use or have them repaired by our Service, as
these could interfere with other wireless services.

Environmental benefits of the Aton CL317
Information about disposal
Batteries should not be disposed of in general household waste. Observe
the local waste disposal regulations, details of which can be obtained from
your local authority or the dealer you purchased the product from.
At the end of its service life, this product must not be disposed of with normal household waste, but must be handed in at the place of purchase or at
a collection point for recycling electrical and electronic devices in accordance with the ordinance governing the return, acceptance and disposal of
electrical and electronic equipment (VREG).
The materials can be recycled according to their identification. By reusing
and recycling materials along with other methods of recycling used equipment, you can make an important contribution to protecting the environment.
Please note
u Not all of the functions described in this user guide are available in all
countries.
u The device cannot be used in the event of a power failure. It is also not
possible to transmit emergency calls.
Environmental benefits of the Aton CL317
The Aton CL317 has a low level of energy consumption and reduces radiation.
Reduced power consumption
Your telephone has a power-saving adapter plug and uses 60% less power
than standard devices. Power consumption in standby mode is approx. 1.3
watt.
Minimal radiation
The Aton CL317 with its preset Eco Mode plus switches off all radiation
when in idle status. During a call, the handset reduces the transmission
power according to the distance from the base station.
In addition, you also have the option of further reducing the transmission
power of your Aton CL317 during a call by reducing the range.

The charger is designed for use in dry rooms in a temperature range
of +5°C to +45°C.
¤ Set up the charger on a level, non-slip surface or mount the
charger on the wall ¢ page 50.
Please note
Pay attention to the range of the base. This is up to 250 m in
unobstructed outdoor areas and up to 40 m inside buildings. The
range is reduced when Eco Mode is activated (¢ page 40).
The phone's feet do not usually leave any marks on surfaces. However, due to the multitude of different varnishes and polishes used
on today's furnishings, the occurrence of marks on the surfaces cannot be completely ruled out.
Warning
u Never expose the telephone to the influence of heat sources,
direct sunlight or other electrical devices.
u Protect your Aton from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and
fumes.

Notes on calling line
display (CLIP)
By default, the number of the caller
is shown in the display of your telephone. You do not have to make any
other settings on your telephone.
Please note
In the Swisscom ISDN network,
CLIP is transmitted automatically.
However, if the caller's number is
not displayed, this can be due to
the following:
Your telephone is connected via a
PABX or a router with an integrated
PABX (gateway) that does not transmit all information.
Is your telephone connected via a
PABX /g at ew ay?
You can establish this by checking
for an additional device connected
between your telephone and house
connection, e.g., a PABX, gateway
etc. In most cases, simply resetting
this device will remedy the situation:
¤ Briefly disconnect the mains plug
of your PABX. Re-insert the plug
and wait for the device to restart.
If the caller number is still not
displayed:
¤ Check the CLIP settings of your
PABX and activate this function if
necessary. In the user guide for
the device, search for the term
"CLIP" (or an alternative term such
as "calling line identification",
"phone number transmission",
"caller ID", etc.). If necessary, contact the device manufacturer.
If this does not resolve the problem,
it is possible that your network provider does not provide the CLIP service for this number.
Have you ordered the calling line
display service from your network
provider?
¤ Check whether your provider
supports calling line display
(CLIP) and that the function has
been activated for you. If necessary, contact your provider.
