----Waiting-----
“----Waiting-----” will be displayed.
You can answer the second call, keeping the first call on hold.

•If the phone number is stored in the directory, the caller’s name will be displayed
(p. 34).
•The second caller’s information will not be displayed when:
— the answering system is recording someone’s message,
— a parallel connected telephone is in use.
•Please contact Telstra for details and availability in your area.
•When you receive a second call during a conversation, you will hear a signal
tone following the call waiting tone and the conversation will be interrupted for
approximately a second. The tones are generated from the telephone company.
This is not fault of the product as these events are normal.

Call Waiting Service. Press (RECALL/PLAYBACK) or (RECALL) if you hear
a call-waiting tone while talking.

Important Information (For Australia only)
Instructions to customer
Installation
Attached to this apparatus is an approval label. This label is evidence that
it is a “Permitted Attachment” which has been authorised to be connected
to your telephone service.
Conditions relating to connection and operation of this Permitted
Attachment are contained in Telecommunications General By-Law 220 (5).
You are authorised to install this Permitted Attachment yourself by
plugging it into the line socket of any regular telephone. You may connect
it in place of your existing telephone or to any spare telephone socket
installed in your premises.
To disconnect your existing telephone you must first remove its plug from
the line socket. You can then insert the plug of your Permitted Attachment
into the socket and use your equipment.
If the plug of your existing telephone cannot be readily removed, you will
have to remove the screw securing it. To do this proceed as follows:
1. Loosen screw “A” sufficiently to remove the socket cover.
(See Fig. 1.)
2. Remove screw “B” and withdraw the plug. (See Fig. 2.)
3. Replace screw “B”. (See Fig. 3.) Ensure that it screws completely into
the socket recess. (If the screw is too long, increase the hole depth or
replace the screw with one 5 mm shorter.)
4. Replace socket cover and tighten screw “A”. (See Fig. 4.)

If you are satisfied with the operation of your telephone service after
plugging in your Permitted Attachment, your installation is completed.
You will be unable to connect this Permitted Attachment if your telephone
service consists only of a wall phone or an old style telephone which is not
connected by means of a modern plug and socket. In such cases a new
socket will need to be installed.
Should the Permitted Attachment not operate when plugged into a socket,
it is either faulty or unsuitable for operation with your telephone service. It
should be returned to the store where purchased or the Authorised
Service Centre.
Service difficulties
If at any time a fault occurs on your telephone service carry out the
following checks before you call for service:
• Disconnect the Permitted Attachment and try using the service with the
normal telephone.
• If the telephone service then operates satisfactorily, the fault is in your
Permitted Attachment. Leave the Permitted Attachment disconnected
and report the fault to its supplier or agent to arrange for repair.
• If when using the telephone the service is still faulty, report the fault to
“Service Difficulties and Faults” for attention.
You are required to keep this Permitted Attachment in good working order
while it is connected to your telephone service. Its construction or internal
circuit must not be modified in any way without permission.
WARNING
This cordless telephone system does not incorporate provision for secrecy
of conversations. Appropriately tuned radio equipment and other cordless
telephone systems in close proximity may be used by a third party to
monitor and possibly interrupt conversations in progress when this system
is on radio operation.
