If the useful life of the 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. Never open used batteries, short circuit them or throw them into the fire.

CARE

The surface of the case can be cleaned with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Never use cleaning agents, particularly aggressive solvents.

CONNECTION INFORMATION

The unit requires a TAE socket with F/N coding in common with other plug in units such as fax machines, answering machines or modems.

TEMPERATURE AND AMBIENT CONDITIONS

The unit is designed for use in protected rooms with a temperature range of +5 °C to 45 °C. The unit must not be installed in damp rooms such as a bathroom or laundry room. Avoid proximity to sources of heat such as radiators and do not expose the unit to direct sunlight. It is completely normal for the handset and the base station to become warm in daily use. We therefore recommend that this product should not be used on antique furniture, veneers or other wooden surfaces.

BASE STATION POSITION

The position of the base station has a decisive influence on the trouble-free operation of the telephone. The base station should be as exposed as possible so that a good radio connection can be established with the handset. Position the base station near to the telephone connection socket and a mains socket. If you do not get good reception in every room, connect the base station in a different location in the house.

Excessive exposure to smoke, dust, vibrations, chemicals, moisture, heat or the direct rays of the sun must be avoided. The base station should not be set up in the vicinity of radio equipment, televisions, computers, refrigerators or microwave devices.

COMMISSIONING

UNPACKING

The following parts will be found in the package:

■ Handset
■ Belt clip
■ Base station ■ Power supply
■ 2 NiCd batteries
■ Telephone cable
■ Operating instructions
■ 9V battery for the base station

BELT CLIP

If you want to carry your AUDIOLINE CDL 980G with you at all times, you can use the fixing clip to fix the handset to your belt, for example.

CONNECTING THE TELEPHONE

■ Connect the telephone cable supplied to the telephone socket and the telephone jack on the underside of the base station. The AUDIOLINE CDL 980G uses Touch-Tone Dialling (TTD) and can be switched over to the older Pulse Dialling system if necessary. More information is provided in the chapter on “Programming”.

■ Insert the power supply plug into the socket on the underside of the base station and plug the power supply into a properly installed mains socket.

■ Open the battery compartment in the handset by sliding the cover of the battery compartment away from the handset using light pressure on the lower end. Now insert the batteries taking care to ensure that the polarity is correct. Close the battery compartment.

■ Place the handset on the base station with the display to the top or to the bottom. The charging light on the base station will come on.

■ Before being used for the first time, the handset must be charged continuously for 18 hours. When the handset is fully charged the charging light on the base station flashes and the battery symbol ■■■ appears in the display.

CARE OF THE BATTERIES

We recommend charging the handset overnight to guarantee optimum battery performance. Your AUDIOLINE CDL 980G rechargeable batteries have a standby time at room temperature of max. 42 hours depending on usage.

If your telephone is not used for long periods (e.g. holidays), please remove the batteries from the handset. The handset must then be charged again for 18 hours before being re-used.

The batteries should be replaced when the handset only remains ready for use for two hours or if the batteries start to leak.

The rechargeable batteries (NiCd) should be disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner.

BATTERY CAPACITY DISPLAY

No further calls can be made when the batteries are discharged. When the batteries are almost discharged, the capacity indicator in the display starts to flash and an audible signal is sounded.

	Fully charged
	Half charged
	Almost discharged
	Batteries discharged. An audible signal is heard.

BASE STATION BATTERY

As your telephone stores all information digitally, a battery is required to secure the data in the event of a power loss (or if the power supply is unintentionally unplugged from the socket). You will require an alkali 9 V block battery. If no battery has been fitted or the battery is flat, the mains indicator on the base station flashes. Please remove the telephone cable before replacing the battery. The battery compartment is on the underside of the base station. Remove the screw and open the battery compartment. Connect the battery to the battery cable and close the battery compartment.

SWITCHING ON THE ANSWERING MACHINE REMOTELY

Imagine that you have left your office or your house and have forgotten to switch on your answering machine.

■ Call your number and let it ring 10 times.
■ After your answering machine answers, enter your PIN code (factory setting 8 8 8). The correct entry will be confirmed by a short signal tone.
■ Now enter the number 9 to switch on the answering machine. Other remote access functions can, of course, also be carried out. For more details, see the chapter on “Remote Access Functions” on the previous page
■ Replace the receiver.

REMOTE ACCESS WITH INSUFFICIENT MEMORY CAPACITY

You can control your answering machine at any time using the remote access facility. If, however, there is no memory left for new messages, the CDL980G will no longer accept calls. In this case, please proceed as follows:

• Call your number. If there is insufficient memory capacity, your call will not be answered after 2 or 6 rings.
  ■ Let it ring 10 times and your answering machine will answer with signal tones.
  ■ Now enter your PIN code.

You now have the possibility of freeing up new memory space by deleting messages. For more details, see the chapter on “Remote access Functions”.

FAULTS

All cordless telephones work using radio transmitters and receivers. It is possible for faults to occur with the radio transmission.

An alternative location for installation can significantly improve radio transmission. A higher installation position such as the first floor, for example, is the most suitable.

Electronic devices, such as televisions, computers, etc., have an electrical field and can interfere with the transmission of radio data.

FAULT FINDING

If your telephone does not work properly, first read the operating instructions. Make sure that the mains power supply and the telephone cable are correctly connected. Remove all other telephones, answering machines and faxes that may be connected. If your telephone now works correctly, the other equipment connected should be checked.

The telephone does not work

■ Have you connected the power supply correctly?
■ Have you connected the telephone cable correctly?
■ Are you using the telephone cable supplied?
■ Are the handset batteries charged?
■ Connect another telephone to the telephone socket. If this telephone does not work either, contact your telephone service provider.

You hear warning tones during a call

■ The batteries are exhausted (please recharge for 15 hours).
■ You are no longer within range of the base station.

No dialling tone on the handset

■ Have you charged the batteries for 15 hours?
■ Is the base station connected to the power supply?
■ Is the telephone cable connected correctly?

The base station rings before the handset

■ This is normal with cordless telephones.

The call cannot be answered on the handset when the base station rings

■ This occurs with any cordless telephone where the call first has to be transferred to the handset. This can take some time. Wait until the handset rings and then answer the call.

The handset does not ring

■ The ringer may have been switched off.
