Position - There must be a 240 Volt mains
socket near to where the telephone is
positioned. Do not set up the base station in
the immediate vicinity of other electrical
equipment such as microwaves or hi-fi
systems, as this may result in mutual
interference.
The location has a decisive influence on the
trouble-free operation of the telephone.
Do not use the handset in areas where there
is a risk of explosion.
Excessive exposure to smoke, dust, vibrations,
chemicals, moisture, heat or the direct rays of
the sun must be avoided.
Power supply - Use only the TELSTRA plug-in
power supply provided, as other power
supplies could damage the telephone and
will invalidate the Product Warranty.There is
a risk of electric shock if the power supply is
opened while connected to the mains.
Standard rechargeable batteries - Always
use standard rechargeable batteries, Type
AAA 1.2V 550mA. Use of other batteries may
damage the phone and will invalidate the
Product Warranty.
The maximum standby and talk times
quoted are applicable for the standard
rechargeable batteries supplied under
optimum conditions. Ambient temperature,
charging cycle and other external factors,
such as the radio loading in the area of use,
can considerably reduce the operating times.
Furthermore, the charging capacity will be
reduced if the phone is used or stored at very
high or low temperatures.
Charging the handset - It is normal for the
handset to become warm when charging and
this is not dangerous. Do not use other
manufacturer’s charging equipment for
charging the handset, as otherwise damage
could occur.
PAB X’s - The telephone can also be
connected to a PABX.You can find out from
the dealer from whom the equipment was
purchased whether your telephone will work
on your PABX without any problems. Due to
the large number of different PABX’s, it is not
possible to guarantee this function.
Information regarding medical equipment -
The telephone works with a very low
transmission power. This low transmission
power presents no risk to health according to
the current state of research and technology.
However, it has been shown that portable
telephones have the potential in certain
circumstances to interfere with some medical
equipment when switched on. It is
recommended that advice from a qualified
medical expert be sought before using this
product in the vicinity of medical equipment.
General information
54
Page 56
Disposal - If the useful life of the standard
batteries or the complete equipment has
expired, please dispose of these carefully in
accordance with the statutory requirements
and in a manner friendly to the environment.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire, immerse
in water or dispose of with normal household
waste.
Temperature and Ambient Conditions - The
telephone is designed for use indoors with a
temperature range of 10 °C to 30 °C. The base
station must not be installed in damp rooms
such as a bathroom or laundry. Avoid
proximity to sources of heat such as radiators
and do not expose the unit to direct sunlight.
Cleaning and care - The surface of the case
can be cleaned with a soft, dry,lint-free
cloth.
Never use cleaning agents, particularly
aggressive solvents.No attention is
necessary apart from cleaning the case
occasionally.The rubber feet of the base
station are not resistant to all cleaning
agents. The manufacturer can therefore not
accept any liability for possible damage to
furniture or the like.
Hearing aid compatibility - The telephone
has a special circuit working on the basis of
induction for transmitting speech to hearing
aids. Please set your hearing aid to “T”.
