Introduction
Congratulations on choosing a Geemarc Jupiter 3. We at Geemarc want you to get the most out of our product. And that’s why we’ve developed a manual that’s easier to use. So please take the trouble to read it - and enjoy your Jupiter 3 to the full.
What you can use your Jupiter 3 with
and what you can’t
You can use your telephone with private lines, business lines and compatible, approved PABXs. If you have a problem, contact your PABX supplier.
Your line must accept tone dialling. If you have a problem, contact your telephone company.
Do not use your telephone with:
♦shared service or party lines
♦1+1 carrier systems.
♦a payphone unless it’s a private payphone with the ‘green spot’ approval mark.
Where to put your telephone
and how to look after it
♦Keep it away from heat, dust and damp.
♦Clean it with a soft cloth (try not to press the buttons).
♦Never use polish or cleaning agents - they could damage the finish or the electrics inside.
NOTE: We advise that the telephone be placed on a table cloth or similar, as rubber feet can mark some surfaces.
How much telephone equipment
can you have in your home?
Each item is marked (usually on the base) with a REN number. For example, your Jupiter 3 is REN 1 and most BT phones are REN 1. The REN numbers of all your equipment, added up, must not exceed 4. Otherwise you’ll overload your line and your equipment may not work properly.
Thunderstorms
Unplug your telephone from the telephone socket during thunderstorms: if lightning strikes your phone line, it could damage the product. Your guarantee does not cover lightning damage.
General
What you need to know before you start.
MENU key function: you can set the following options by using the MENU key with the handset on hook (on hook).
DATE/TIME : PHONE BOOK : TONE/PULSE : RING MELODY

WARNING
DO NOT REMOVE ALL BATTERIES
OR THE STORED MEMORIES MAY
BE LOST
To ensure the memory does not get lost users should take out one battery at a time and replace with a new one before taking out the next battery.
Change all 4 batteries when the battery low symbol shows in the display.
Operation
Having connected the telephone to the telephone socket, you can now make a call. When using the Telephone a symbol will appear at the top of the display panel to tell you the function in use. Two modes of operation are provided; normal handset mode where the handset is lifted (off hook) and replaced in the normal manner, and handsfree mode where the caller or called party is heard through a loudspeaker built into the telephone, and a microphone picks up your voice. When making or receiving a call, you may alternate between the two modes of operation. On dialling a telephone number, the display will change to ‘IN USE’ and indicate the dialled number. If the dialled number has more than 20 digits the display will scroll left and only the last 20 digits will be displayed.
Handset Operation
Pick up the handset and if making a call, await the dial tone and dial the required telephone number. On completion of the call, replace the handset in cradle.
