1 General Information

Please read these operating instructions carefully. If you should have any questions, please contact our Service Department on the Hotline number 0180 500 13 88 (costs Telekom by printing: 12ct/min). Under no circumstances open the unit yourself and do not try to carry out your own repairs. For any claims under the warranty, please refer to your dealer.

Intended use

This telephone is designed for use connected to an analogue telephone line (PSTN) in Germany. However, due to differences in the services provided by the various telecommunications providers, we cannot guarantee that the telephone will work properly when connected to all telecommunications terminal lines. The telephone is prepared for connection to a TAE phone jack with F/N coding and can be used together with other equipment such as a fax, answering machine, or a modem. Plug the connecting phone cable only into the telephone plug socket provided for this purpose. Do not replace the plug of the connecting phone cable.

Batteries

Do not use any other kind of rechargeable batteries, as these could possibly lead to a short circuit. When changing the batteries, always use four new batteries, type AAA 1.5V. Do not throw batteries into the fire or immerse in water. Do not dispose of old or faulty batteries with the normal household waste.

Private exchanges

The telephone can also be connected to a private exchange. You can find out from the dealer from whom the equipment was purchased whether your telephone will work on your private exchange without any problems. Due to the large number of different private exchanges, it is not possible to guarantee this function.

Disposal

If the useful life of the complete equipment has expired, please dispose of it carefully in accordance with the statutory requirements and in a manner friendly to the environment.

Temperature and ambient conditions

The telephone is designed for use in protected rooms with a temperature range of 10 °C to 30 °C . The telephone 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.

- General Information -

Location

Do not set up the telephone 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.

Place the telephone on a flat and non-slip surface. The feet do not normally leave any marks on the surface. However, due to the large number of varnishes and surfaces in use, it may not be possible to prevent marks occurring on the surface due to the feet of the unit.

Do not use the telephone in areas where there is a risk of an explosion.

Excessive exposure to smoke, dust, vibrations, chemicals, moisture, heat or the direct rays of the sun must be avoided.

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 housing occasionally. The rubber feet of the telephone are not resistant to all cleaning agents. The manufacturer can therefore not accept any liability for possible damage to furniture or the like.

CE mark

The telephone complies with the basic requirements of the R&TTE Directive This is confirmed by the CE mark.

3.3 Fitting the batteries

Before connecting your new telephone to the telephone network, the batteries should be installed. Please always use four new alkaline batteries, type AAA/LR03 1.5 V only.

3.4 Connecting the receiver

After unpacking your telephone, you must first connect the telephone receiver to the base unit. First take the short end of the spiral cable and plug it into the socket at the bottom of the receiver. Turn the telephone over and plug the long end into the socket marked HANDSET. Feed the cable through the cable channel to the outside.

3.5 Connecting the telephone

Connect the telephone cable supplied to the telephone socket and the telephone jack LINE on the underside of the telephone. Then feed the cable out of the telephone housing either upwards or downwards through the cable guide. Clip the cable firmly in the cable channel.

The telephone works using the tone dialling system.

- Commissioning -

3.6 Connecting the plug-in mains power supply

Insert the plug of the power supply into the 9V DC socket on the underside of the telephone and plug the power supply into a properly installed 230 V mains socket. For safety reasons, use only the plug-in mains power supply provided. Feed the cable through the cable channel to the outside.

3.7 Private exchanges - Setting up for T-NET

You can use the "R" signal button on your telephone on private exchanges and when using DEUTSCHE TELEKOM's T-Net functions.

Private exchanges

If you have connected your telephone to a private exchange, you can use all the facilities such as call transfer, automatic recall, etc. The "R" signal button gives you access to these facilities. The FLASH time "100ms" will be required on a private exchange. To make this setting, move the slide switch on the underside to the "100ms" position. You can find out from the dealer from whom the equipment was purchased whether your telephone will work on your private exchange without any problems and which other facilities you will have access to.

T-NET functions

Your telephone supports the most important DEUTSCHE TELEKOM added value services (e.g. brokering, call waiting, three-way conferencing, etc.). Please contact DEUTSCHE TELEKOM to gain access to these functions (some of which are subject to charge). When using T-NET functions, move the slide switch on the underside to the "300ms" position.

3.8 Fitting the desk support

If you intend to use your telephone on a desk, then the desk support supplied must be fitted. To do this, turn the telephone over. Now insert the two upper hooks into the openings provided and push the desk support firmly home.

If you ever need to remove the support, press gently on the middle clips on the upper edge and then pull the desk support off.

In the receiver rest there is a small hanging device, which is used when the telephone is wall mounted. This hanging device is not required when the telephone is used on a desk, as it impedes the lifting of the receiver. Using a small screwdriver, turn this hanging device until the screw is completely flush and its upper end does not protrude at all.

- Commissioning -

3.9 Wall mounting

Your telephone is also suitable for wall mounting. Use two flat head screws for fixing. Drill two holes horizontally side by side, 67 mm apart, and leave the screws protruding from the wall by 5mm. Now place the telephone over the screws and push it slightly downwards.

There is a small hanging device in the receiver rest to prevent the receiver from falling when it is placed on the rest with the telephone mounted on the wall. Using a small screwdriver, turn this hanging device until a small hook appears at the upper end.

If you are using the telephone fitted to the wall, you can hang the receiver on the telephone without hanging up. You will find a small hook for this purpose at the upper end of the receiver rest.

If this function is available on your line, the display shows you the caller's telephone number while the telephone is ringing. The display reports the following information when there is no telephone number available.

If the message KEINE NUMMER appears in the display, the number has only been partially or incorrectly received.

If the message NICHT VERFUEGBAR or FERNGESPRAECH appears in the display, the particulars of the number are not available. This could have been an international call.

If the message PRIVAT appears in the display, the caller has suppressed the transmission of his telephone number or it was not possible to transmit the number.

NOTE!

Caller display is an optional service from your telephone provider. Your telephone will show the number in the display if your telephone provider offers this service. Please ask your telephone provider for further information. If this service is not available, incoming calls will not be shown in the display.

In your absence, all calls will be saved in a caller list with date and time. Up to 99 numbers are saved in the caller list. When the list is full, the oldest number is always deleted from the list.

If calls are registered during your absence, this will be indicated in the display by the message NEU and the indicator light for new calls will flash.

Note: The new calls display is not dependent on the calls recorded on the answering machine. Calls will also be stored in the caller list even where no message has been left on the answering machine.
