ENGLISH

Thank you for purchasing a TELEFUNKEN DECT digital cordless telephone with sensor keypad! Before using your device, please consult these operating instructions and keep them so you may refer to them later on.

If you are still having difficulties after making these changes, contact our technical support at the following email address:

assistance@sopeg.fr or at the following number: + 33 (0)5-45-60-82-51

I. Box contents

 1 Handset  1 Base  1 Power adapter  1 RJ11 telephone cord  2 telephone adapters  2 AAA NiMh, 750 mAh rechargeable batteries  1 quick-start guide

Some tips to help you get the best from your phone quickly are:  Pick the handset up by the sides, touching the area just

below the front black touch sensor panel, then cradle the back of the handset in your hand whilst you dial.

 During use, avoid touching the keypad area unnecessarily

to prevent accidental triggering of the keypad.

 The keypad will automatically disable when you hold the

receiver to your ear to reduce the risk of accidental keypad presses while the handset is held against the side

ENGLISH

of your face.

 To ‘wake’ the keypad to enable you to dial further digits,

e.g. if you want to access the menu, you just need to take the handset away from your ear and wait for the backlight to come on. You can then dial normally.

 It is very easy to tell when the keypad is disabled, as the

keypad backlight will be off.

 When dialling digits to select from a voice menu, e.g. Press

1 for accounts..., please ensure that you hold the handset away from the display area.

 Holding the handset at the top around the display area

may activate the secrecy feature.

The maximum range of the handset from the base is approx. 300m. The range may be reduced in certain environments and when used in certain conditions (proximity to other appliances, walls, various obstacles). Indoors, the range is generally inferior (approx. 50m) to the outdoors.

4. Technical specifications

Standard: Digital Enhanced Cordless

Telecommunications (DECT) Operating Frequency: 1880-1900 MHz Range: 300 m outdoors and 50 m indoors,

in ideal conditions Operating duration: 100 hours standby time

10 hours of talk time Operating temperature: 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F) Storage temperature: -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F) Rechargeable batteries: 2 x NiMH 1.2V (AAA) each Base voltage: 100-240V / 50/60Hz

III. Getting started

1. Siting the base

A site should be chosen with the following characteristics:

 A flat and stable surface  At most 1.8 metres from a power outlet and a telephone

jack

 At least 1 metre from any other electronic appliance to

avoid interference

 Out of direct sunlight and a sufficient distance from any

heat source

 Away from any wet or damp area, such as a bathroom Note: since the base and the portable handset communicate via radio waves, it is important that the base is located in an

ENGLISH

open area to ensure the best possible signal. The normal range is approximately 300 metres when there is a direct line of sight to the base, and approximately 50 metres when the base is indoors and the phone is outdoors. Thick concrete walls significantly reduce this range.

2. Connecting to the power

1. Plug the power cord from the power adapter into the bottom of the base.

2. Plug the power adapter into the wall outlet.

3. Installing the batteries

Pull off the lid for the handset battery compartment on the back, and insert the 2 AAA rechargeable batteries provided, ensuring the polarities are correct. Close the lid. Caution: do not use non-rechargeable batteries. Use only the rechargeable batteries provided. Use of incorrect batteries may damage your telephone and invalidate your warranty.

4. Recharging batteries

Place the handset on the base, and wait for the batteries to charge fully, at least 24 hours. Once it is done charging, the battery symbol will appear in the upper right corner of the screen.

ENGLISH

5. Connecting the phone cord

After charging for 24 hours, plug the telephone cord from the base into the wall jack.

6. Turning on

When turning on your phone on for the first time, you are asked to indicate the country in which you are using it: select

the country using the / scrolling keys, then confirm with the Menu/OK key.

7. Setting the date and time

If you subscribe to your operator's Caller ID service, the date and time will automatically display on the handset. If not, follow the steps below.

1. Press under 'MENU', then to display 'Clock &

Alarm'. Press ‘Select’ and select 'Date & Time', the screen displays ‘Please wait…’ for a few seconds.

2. Enter the date in DD-MM-YY format, for example 04-11-

10 for 4 November 2010.

3. Press ‘Save’ and enter the time in 24-hour, HH-MM

format. For example, 14-45 for 14:45 or 2:45pm.

4. Press ‘Save’ to confirm or RED for standby. Your Pure telephone is now ready for use.

ENGLISH

8. Adjusting the base lighting

The base has an Ambient lighting mode that appears as a ring of white light around the base. This light will blink when a new call comes in, during a phone conversation, when an SMS is received or when there are messages on the answering machine. To turn ambient lighting on or off:

1. Press and hold on the bottom of the base for 5 seconds. Continue holding this button until you find the ambient lighting you want.

9. Handset range

Your TELEFUNKEN telephone has a range of 300m outdoors when there is a clear line of sight between the base and the handset. Any obstacle between the base and the handset seriously reduces the range. If the base is indoors and the handset is either indoors or outdoors, the range is up to 50m. Very thick walls can affect the range.

10. Signal strength

The symbol on your handset indicates when you are in range. When the handset is out of range, the screen displays Searching…, the symbol flashes and the handset emits a warning tone each minute. This tone is repeated as long as the handset is out of range.

ENGLISH

If you go out of range while on a call, the call will drop. Go back within range before making any further calls. The handset will reconnect with the base automatically.

Pure multipack users only: Place each Pure charger within reach of a mains power wall socket.

1. Plug the mains power adaptor into the power socket on the underside of the charger and plug the other end into the mains power wall socket.

2. Insert the 2 x AAA rechargeable batteries supplied, taking note of the ‘+’ and ‘-’ markings inside the battery compartment, then slide the battery compartment shut.

3. Place the handset on the charger. Your Pure handset has ‘reverse charging’ and so can be placed either way around on the base or charger. Check that the round connector on the back of the handset is in contact with the round connector in the middle of the charger. You should let the batteries charge continuously for at least 24 hours. The display will show the handset number, e.g. 2, to show it is registered to the base.

11. Low battery warning

If the symbol flashes on the screen, you must recharge the handset before using it again. While it is charging, the symbol will scroll across the screen.

12. Battery life

In ideal conditions, fully charged batteries should give about

ENGLISH

10 hours talk time or 100 hours standby time on a single charge.

Note that new batteries do not reach full capacity until they have been in normal use for several days. To keep your batteries in the best condition, leave the handset out of its charger base for a few hours at a time. Running the batteries right down at least once a week will help them last as long as possible. The charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with time as they wear out, giving the handset less talk/standby time. Eventually they will need to be replaced. The batteries and handset may become warm during charging. This is normal.

13. Mains power failure, base only

If you have a mains power failure, you can still use your base to make and receive telephone calls. The phone will ring when you receive an incoming call in power failure mode but the

display will not light up and the caller’s details will not be

stored in the calls list. You will not be able to use the other features and functions of the base or the handset until mains power is restored.
