SET UP

DIAL MODE

The DIAL MODE switch is located at the back of the telephone. Slide the switch to TONE unless you have Dial-Pulse (Rotary) telephone service in your area, in which case, slide the switch to the PULSE position.

MECHANICAL BELL RINGER

CONTROL

The RINGER CONTROL switch at the back of the telephone allows you to turn the ringer ON or OFF. You can still make or receive calls with the ringer in OFF position, however, you will not hear the incoming ring.

RECEIVER VOLUME

The RECEIVER VOLUME CONTROL switch, located on the bottom of the telephone, allows you to adjust the volume of the receiver earphone from LOW and HI.

INSTALLATION

To connect the telephone, connect the line cord from the back of the telephone to the wall jack.

MAKING AND ANSWERING CALLS

To get a dial tone or answer an incoming call, lift the handset.

To hang up, either replace the handset or press the HANDSET

CRADLE manually.

FLASH

Pressing FLASH sends the electronic equivalent of a switchhook signal. Use FLASH with special phone company services such as call waiting.

REDIAL

Pressing redial will call the last number dialed from this phone

IF THERE IS NO DIAL TONE

1) Make sure that all plugs are connected properly. Check the connections at the wall jack, the telephone cabinet and handset.

2)Try another modular jack within your home which you know to be working properly.

IF CALLS CANNOT BE DIALED

OR DIALS SLOWLY

Check to make sure that the DIAL MODE switch is in the correct position for the type of service (TONE/PULSE) available in your area.

IF THE TELEPHONE DOES NOT RING

Check that RINGER CONTROL switch is not set to OFF.

If there are several telephones connected to the same line, try disconnecting some of the other telephones. Having too many telephones connected to the same line can cause low ringer volume or poor sound quality during calls.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Avoid rough treatment to the telephone. Do not drop the handset and always place it gently back in the cradle. Clean only with slightly dampened cloth. Do not use detergent, wax, solvent, spray, alcohol or excessive water.
