numbers; page 18) and the shared phonebook (20 names and phone
numbers; page 21). These phonebooks allow you to make calls without
having to dial manually. For handset phonebook, you can assign each
handset phonebook entry to the desired category, and search for handset
phonebook entries by name or category.
Handset phonebook category
If you subscribe to Caller ID service, handset phonebook categories (page
18) can help you identify who is calling by using different ringtones for
different categories of callers (page 35).
Tom
Audible call for shared phonebook
Tom

If you record an audible call announcement for a shared phonebook entry
(page 21), the audible call recording will be announced when you receive
a call from that person.

35).
Night mode

handset/base unit will not ring, useful if you do not want to be disturbed, for
example, while sleeping.
Night mode can be set independently for the handset (page 26) and base
unit (page 31).
Digital answering system

when you are unavailable to answer the phone (page 38).

your service provider for details.
– Both the base unit and handset will
announce the audible call recording you
made.
For all local and national incoming calls,
your display will show the area code (e.g. 09
for Auckland) or the cellular prefix (e.g. 0274
for Telecom Cellular) followed by the caller’s
telephone number. An Auckland caller’s
number will be displayed as 09XXXXXXX.
The seven X’s represent the seven digits of
the caller’s telephone number. A caller from
a 6-digit Telecom Cellular number will be
displayed as 0274XXXXXX. For incoming
international calls, your display may only
show “0000”. For business users on a
Centrex line, your display will show Centrex
extension numbers in the shorter extension
number format used within your company.
L If the unit is connected to a PBX system,
you may not receive the caller information.
L When the caller dialled from an area
which does not provide Caller ID service,
“Out of Area” will be displayed.
L When the caller requested not to send
caller information, either no information or
“Private Caller” will be displayed.
Missed calls
If a call is not answered, the unit treats the
call as a missed call. The number of missed
calls is shown on the display. This lets you
know if you should view the caller list to see
who called while you were out.
L The Caller ID information will not be
presented on incoming fax calls if Telecom
FaxAbility is used.

area code prefix included. If this is
unacceptable, dial only the 7-digit local
number. Do not dial the {0} prefix or the area
code.
Categories can help you identify who is
calling by using different ringtones for
different categories of callers. When adding
an entry to the handset phonebook you can
assign it to the desired category (page 18).
When a call is received from a caller
assigned to a category, the category’s
ringtone you select is used.

Multi-unit Operation
Operating additional units Registering a handset to a
base unit
Additional handsets
Up to 6 handsets can be registered to a
single base unit. Additional handsets will
give you the freedom to, for example, have
an intercom call with another handset while
a third handset is on an outside call. See
page 5 for information on ordering additional
handsets.
To register an additional handset to a
base unit (easy registration)
The included handset and base unit are
preregistered. After purchasing an
additional handset, register it to the base
unit. Ensure that the additional handset is
switched on. If it is not on, press and hold
{ih} for few seconds to turn the handset
on.
Important:
L The additional handset model
recommended for use with this unit is
noted on page 5. If other model handset is
used, certain operations (handset
settings, base unit settings, etc.) may not
be available.
1 Lift the additional handset and press
{ih} to put the handset in standby
mode.
2 Press and hold {x} on the base unit for
about 3 seconds, until the registration
tone sounds.
Additional base units
3 Place the additional handset on the
base unit. The registration tone
continues to sound. With the handset
still on the base unit, wait until a
confirmation tone sounds and w stops
flashing.
Handsets can be registered to up to 4 base
units, allowing you to add additional base
units and extend the area in which your
handset(s) can be used. If a handset moves
out of range of its base unit when “Auto” is
selected on base unit selection (page 47), it
will look for another base unit to make or
receive calls. A base unit and the handsets it
communicates with is called a “radio cell”.
Note:
L If an error tone sounds, or if w is still
flashing, register the handset manually
(manual registration; page 47).
Note:
L If all registered handsets start ringing in
step 2, press {x} to stop. Start again from
step 1.
L Calls will be disconnected when the
handset moves from one radio cell to
another.
L Charge the batteries of your additional
handset for about 7 hours before initial
use.
L Intercom calls and call transfers are only
possible between handsets in the same
radio cell.
L This registration method cannot be used
for handsets that have already been
registered to a base unit. Register the
handset manually (manual registration;
page 47).

is out of range of that base unit, no calls can
be made.
