Placing the handset in the base station
and registering
¤
Place the handset in the base with its
display facing upwards .
The handset registers automatically. Reg-
istration takes around 1 minute. During
this time Regstr.Procedure appears in the
display and the name of the base station
flashes, e.g. Base 1 . The handset will be
assigned the lowest unassigned internal
number (1–6).
This will appear in the display when regis-
tration is complete, e.g. INT 1 . This means
that the number 1 has been assigned. If
the internal numbers 1–6 are already
assigned to other units, the number 6 is
overwritten.
To charge the batteries, leave the handset
in the base station.
For questions and problems see page 49.
Headset socket
You can connect the following types of
headset (with jack connector): HAMA
Plantronics M40, MX100 and MX150.
Initial charging and discharging of
batteries
If the handset is activated, the flashing
battery icon
e
in the top right of the dis-
play indicates that the batteries are being
charged.
During handset operation, the battery
icon indicates the charge status of the bat-
teries (page 1). The correct charge level
can only be displayed if the batteries are
first fully charged and discharged.
¤
To do this, leave the handset in the
base or charging cradle continuously
for ten hours. Your handset need not
be switched on for it to charge.
¤
Afterwards, remove the handset from
the base station and do not put it back
again until the batteries are fully dis-
charged.
Please note:
– Automatic registration is only possible
while no-one is making calls using the base
station.
– Each key press interrupts the automatic
registration.
– If automatic registration does not work the
handset will have to be registered manually
(page 37).
– You can change the name of the handset
(page 40).
Please note:
– If the handset has switched itself off
because the batteries are flat and is then
placed in the base station, it will switch
itself on automatically.
– Only place the handset in the base or
charging cradle that is intended for it.
