10. General Information
Installation
Attached to this apparatus is a label bearing a
“Austel Permit Number”. This number is evidence
that it is a “Permitted Attachment” which has been
authorized by Austel 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 authorized by Austel to install this
Permitted Attachment yourself by plugging it into
the line socket of any Telstra telephone. You may
connect it in place of your Telstra telephone or to
any spare telephone socket installed in your
premises.
To disconnect your Telstra 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 Telstra 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.

4. Replace socket cover and tighten screw ‘A’.
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.
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.
