Getting started
Installation
You must install and
charge the battery before
using the telephone.
Install the telephone base close to a telephone jack and a power outlet
not controlled by a wall switch. The telephone base can be placed on a flat
surface or vertically mounted on the wall (see page 15). For optimum range
and better reception, place the telephone base in a central and open location.
If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital subscriber line)
through your telephone line, you must install a DSL filter between the telephone
line cord and the telephone wall jack (see page 9). The filter prevents noise and
caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service
provider for more information about DSL filters.
Your product may be shipped with protective stickers covering the handset
and telephone base displays - remove them before use.
For customer service or product information, visit our website at

Battery backup mode
Battery backup mode allows your telephone system to function in the
event of a power outage. The telephone system uses stored power from the
handset’s battery to operate.
To activate the mode
After the power goes out, if there is already a handset with
enough charge placed in the telephone base, the telephone
system enters battery backup mode automatically. That handset
screen shows Powering base... Don’t pick up. All other
handset screens show Battery backup mode.

Operation
During battery backup mode, the telephone base, answering system and all
Bluetooth related features will be disabled. The operating time is subject to
the battery level of the handset placed in the telephone base and the actual
usage. For optimal performance, we recommend that you do not use the
handset placed in the telephone base when this mode is on.
Using other system handsets (Recommended):
Operate the handsets the same way as usual, except the answering system
and all Bluetooth related features which will be disabled.
Using the handset placed in the telephone base:
To maximize the operating time, you are not advised to use this handset. If
you do have to use it, make sure you do not lift it from the telephone base.
All operations should be done with the handset placed in the telephone base.
In this case, calls can only be made and received using the speakerphone.

Caller ID announce
The caller ID announce feature lets you know who’s calling without having
to look at the display. When you have an incoming call, the handset and/or
base speaks “Call from...” and the name of the caller based on the directory
or caller ID information. If the caller’s name is private or unknown, the phone
number up to the last 11 digits will be announced. If the caller’s phone
number is also private or unknown, no information will be announced. The
default setting is On.

To use the caller ID announce feature, you must subscribe to caller ID

service from your telephone service provider.
If you have paired an AT&T TL80133 DECT 6.0 cordless speakerphone
•
to the telephone base, the caller ID announce setting for all devices
also applies to the cordless speakerphone. When the setting is On,
the cordless speakerphone speaks “Call from...” and the name of
the caller based on the directory or caller ID information during an
incoming call. If the caller’s name is unavailable, the phone number
up to the last 11 digits will be announced.
When there are up to five handsets registered, the telephone system supports caller ID
•
announce for all handsets. If six or more handsets are registered, the system supports caller
ID announce for the first four registered handsets only.
This feature does not announce information for call waiting calls.
•
It takes at least 2 rings for the phone to receive caller ID information and announce it. If the
•
phone is answered before the end of the second ring, the phone won’t have time to announce
the caller’s information.
Pronunciation of names may vary with this feature. Not all names may be pronounced correctly.
•
When this feature is on, the telephone plays both the caller ID information and the ringer at
•
the same time when there is an incoming call.
Caller ID announce is available in English only.
