This is a common event associated with the closing of any electrical circuit. The user should not plug the phone into a power outlet, and should not put a charged handset into the cradle, if the phone is located in an environment containing concentrations of ﬂammable or ﬂame-supporting gases, unless there is adequate ventilation. A spark in such an environment could create a ﬁre or explosion. Such environments might include: medical use of oxygen without adequate ventilation; industrial gases (cleaning solvents; gasoline vapors; etc.); a leak of natural gas; etc.

• Do not use this product near water, or when you are wet. For example, do not use it in a wet

basement or shower, or next to a swimming pool, bathtub, kitchen sink, or laundry tub. Do not use liquids or aerosol sprays for cleaning. If the product comes in contact with any liquid, unplug any line or power cord immediately. Do not plug the product back in until it has dried thoroughly.

• Install this product in a protected location where no one can trip over any line or power cords.

Protect cords from damage or abrasion.

• If this product does not operate normally, see the Troubleshooting section on pages 84-90 of this

user’s manual. If you cannot solve the problem, or if the product is damaged, refer to the Limited warranty section on pages 94-95. Do not open this product except as directed in your user’s manual.

Opening the product or reassembling it incorrectly may expose you to hazardous voltages or other risks.

• This power adapter is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or ﬂoor mount position. The

prongs are not designed to hold the plug in place if it is plugged into a ceiling, an under-the-table or cabinet outlet.

position. The prongs are not designed to hold the plug in place if it is plugged into a ceiling, under-the-table or cabinet outlet.

Precautions for users of implanted cardiac pacemakers

Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital cordless telephones):

Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR), an independent research entity, led a multidisciplinary evaluation of the interference between portable wireless telephones and implanted cardiac pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, WTR recommends to physicians that:

Pacemaker patients

• Should keep wireless telephones at least six inches from the pacemaker.

• Should NOT place wireless telephones directly over the pacemaker, such as in a breast pocket,

when it is turned ON.

• Should use the wireless telephone at the ear opposite the pacemaker.

WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from other persons using wireless telephones.

Especially about telephone answering systems

Two-way recording: This unit does not sound warning beeps to inform the other party that the call is being recorded. To ensure that you are in compliance with any federal or state regulations regarding recording a telephone call, you should start the recording process and then inform the other party that you are recording the conversation.

Introduction

This UP406 deskset is not a stand-alone telephone. You must purchase the UP416 console and connect this telephone to the console before use.

This system is not compatible with any other VTech 4 line business telephones, except for the UP416 console and UP407 handset.

The UP406 deskset is hearing-aid compatible and can be connected to the console via an Ethernet switch or router. This telephone features a speakerphone for handsfree use and a headset jack compatible with most twoband 2.5mm corded headsets (sold separately).

There are two network ports, known as the Ethernet port and PC port, at the back of the deskset The Ethernet port allows the UP406 deskset to connect with the UP416 console via an Ethernet switch or router. The PC port is for another device such as a personal computer to connect to the Ethernet network through this deskset.

The UP406 deskset supports intercom and call transfers between system extensions and is capable of connecting five parties on the same conference call.

This telephone also features a 32-number one- and two-touch memory for faster dialing and has a directory that can store up to 50 additional numbers with names. This telephone has a caller ID feature that supports caller ID with call waiting service. Caller ID services are subscriber services available from many telephone service providers for a fee. The telephone can store up to 200 caller ID entries.

Your UP406 deskset also features a built-in digital answering system with a private mailbox. You can access the private mailbox from a non-system touchtone telephone. For details, see the Answering system operation section (pages 76-78). This user’s manual contains detailed instructions for using your UP406 deskset. Please read this user’s manual before using this telephone.

Getting started

Planning your system

The UP406 package includes only the deskset. It is not a stand-alone telephone and requires connection with UP416 console through Ethernet network (see diagram below) to function. You can also purchase UP407 cordless handset or IS6100 cordless headset to expand your system.

To order them, visit our website at businessphones.vtech.com or call

1 (800) 595-9511. In Canada, dial 1 (800) 267-7377.

You must install and set up UP416 console first before expanding your system with this UP406 deskset. Make sure you connect the console and all desksets to the Ethernet network. You can use the existing Ethernet wall jack to which your computer is already connected, or set up a new network.
