1 General Information
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.
Location
Do not position the telephone in the immediate vicinity of other electronic equipment such as microwave or hi-fi units as this can lead to mutual interference. The location has a deciding influence on the trouble-free operation of the telephone. Stand the telephone on a flat, non-slip surface. The telephone feet do not normally leave any marks on the surface. However, on account of the multitude of varnishes and surface finishes used, surface marks caused by the feet of the unit cannot be ruled out.
Do not use the telephone in areas where there is the risk of an explosion.
Excessive exposure to smoke, dust, vibrations, chemicals, moisture, heat or the direct rays of the sun must be avoided.
Disposal
If the useful life of the complete equipment has expired, please dispose of these 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 ^ to 50 ^ . 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.
Cleaning and care
The surface of the case can be cleaned with a dry, soft, lint-free cloth. Never use cleaning agents, particularly aggressive solvents. Apart from occasional cleaning of the case, no other care is necessary. The rubber feet of the base station are not resistant to all cleaning agents. The manufacturer can therefore not be held responsible for possible damage to furniture or the like.

3 Commissioning
3.1 Safety information
NOTE! Before commissioning, it is essential that you read the general information at the beginning of this manual.
3.2 Check contents of pack
The following items are supplied:
| one telephone base one telephone receiver |
| one telephone connection cable one spiral cable |
| one desk adapter one Operating Manual |
3.3 Connecting the telephone 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 on the right hand side. Feed the cable through the cable channel to the outside.
3.4 Connecting the telephone
Connect the telephone cable supplied to the telephone socket and the telephone jack 📞 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.
3.5 R signal button - 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.
- Commissioning -
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.
3.6 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.
3.7 Wall mounting
Your telephone is also suitable for wall mounting. Use two screws for fixing. Drill two holes horizontally side by side, 70 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.
