Important note!

Use an original adapter only (9VAC)! Under power failure conditions the telephone will not operate. Please ensure that a separate telephone not dependant on local power is available for emergency use. The earpiece of the handset may attract small ferromagnetic objects such as staples and pins, care should be taken when placing the handset near these items. Do not place the base unit close to other electrical equipment such as TV sets, computer screens, telecom equipment, fans etc. This will minimise the risk of interference. Do not place the base unit in areas where it will be exposed to direct sunlight or other major heat sources. www.doro.com 5

Belt clip

A belt clip is included, which can be fitted on the back of the handset. The belt clip enables the handset to be attached to a belt, waistband or similar. To attach the clip, align it with the indents on the sides of the handset and press it into place over the back of the handset.

Battery

The telephone is supplied with environmentally-friendly nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries 3 x AAA 1.2V. As with all batteries, performance may degrade over time; should you notice that the standby time has reduced considerably or there are signs of leakage, the batteries should be replaced. Fully-charged batteries will last for approx. 120 hours in standby or 10 hours call time. These operation times apply at normal room temperature. Full battery capacity will be achieved once the batteries have been charged 4-5 times, completely discharged batteries will take about 10 hours to fully recharge. To maintain optimum charge capacity it is better for hansets to be charged every other night, rather than after each call. The base unit has an automatic charging mechanism that prevents the batteries from being overcharged or damaged by prolonged charging.

Please note!

To ensure and maintain good charging of the handset batteries we recommend that the base and handset charging contacts are cleaned regularly, ie monthly, with a pencil eraser and/or sotf dry cloth.The recharging system used in this model may result in the handset and the batteries becoming warm. This is normal and will not damage the equipment. When the telephone is installed for the first time, the batteries must be charged for 24 hours before using the telephone. Use original batteries only. The guarantee does not cover any damage caused by incorrect use of batteries. Please dispose of any batteris in a responsible and environmantally friendly manner.

Battery charge indicator

The symbol [ in the display indicates when it is time to recharge the batteries. When the battery is running low the display will show and a warning tone will be heard. If the handset is not recharged at this time, the phone will cease to function until it is recharged. The symbol will be displayed when the battery is fully charged.

Please note:

When the handset has been switched off and then on again it may take up to five minutes before the correct charge indication is displayed.
Turning the handset on/off
Press and hold ! for a few seconds to turn the handset on or off. When the handset is turned off, no calls can be made or received. The handset is designed to be always turned on, i.e. it is not necessary to turn it off overnight. However, we recommend turning the handset off if it is not to be used for a prolonged period of time, e.g. during a holiday. If the batteries run low, the handset will turn off.

The range of the telephone varies depending on different factors in the surrounding environment. Radio waves transmitting the call may be hindered by obstructions or signal reflections that can reduce the range. Specified ranges require unobstructed transmission between the handset and the base unit. In such ideal conditions the telephones range can be up to 300 metres. In densly populated areas, houses, apartments, etc. the range will be reduced. Try to get the best range by relocating base unit, the ideal location is a highand unobstructed place. Out of range warning If the handset is carried to far from the base unit during a call, the sound quality will deteriorate and a warning tone will be heard. Unless the handset is moved closer to the base unit within a few seconds the call will be cut off.

Headset

The handset can be used with a headset and is equipped with a socket for this. Headsets are available as an extra accessory and can be purchased from your local retailer. When using an optional headset there is no change in the way a call is received or made. When a headset is connected the handset microphone and earpiece will automatically be disconnected. This telephone supports the use of the answering function with a button on the headset cable available on many headsets.
The volume may be high on the headset earpiece. Adjust the setting immediately when you connect a headset.

General information

DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telephone) is a digital method of transmission for cordless telephones. You can: Use up to 6 handsets with the same base unit. Make internal calls (intercom) and transfer calls between handsets connected to the same base unit Connect (register) up to 4 base units to the same handset.

Additional handsets can be purchased from your local retailer. This model is also GAP (Generic Access Profile) compatible, which means that the handset and the base unit can both be used with most other GAPcompatible units irrespective of manufacturer. However, the GAP protocol does not guarantee all functions will work.

Multiple handsets

The multiple handset function has numerous practical applications, e.g. employees in an office can have several handsets linked to the same base unit. They can all answer incoming calls, make outgoing calls, use the handsets internally as an intercom system, and also transfer external calls between the handsets. One external call and one internal call can be active simultaneously. To be able to use extra handsets with a base unit, you must register the handset. Registration enables the handset to know which base unit it belongs to. On registration, the handset is allocated a specific handset number, e.g. 2. This number is also used for internal calls between handsets. When you purchased the telephone, the handset was pre-registered with the accompanying base unit. The handset has the handset number 1, which is shown in the display in standby mode. Refer to the Registration chapter for more information. If you wish to use several handsets with one base unit, you should ensure that the base unit is centrally positioned to evenly distribute the base unit range among the handsets.

Intercom calls

When using several handsets with the same base unit calls can be made internally between the handsets, this is referred to as an internal call or intercom. Intercom calls can only be made between handsets connected to the same base unit. 1. Press Menu. 2. Scroll using v/V to INT Call. Press OK. 3. Press All for a general call (to all handsets) or enter the handset number 1 - 6 for the handset you wish to call.
