Intended use
This telephone is designed for use connected to an analogue telephone line (PSTN) in
Germany. However, due to differences in the services provided by the various
telecommunications providers, we cannot guarantee that the telephone will work properly
when connected to all telecommunications terminal lines. The telephone is prepared for
connection to a TAE phone jack with F/N coding and can be used together with other
equipment such as a fax, answering machine, or a modem. Plug the connecting phone
cable only into the telephone plug socket provided for this purpose. Do not replace the
plug of the connecting phone cable.
Power failures
Telephone calls cannot be made during power failures. Keep a cord telephone that is not
equipped with an external power supply available in case of emergency.
Rechargeable accupacks
Use only rechargeable batteries as supplied. The use of other rechargeable batteries or
accupacks may cause a short-circuit.
When changing the batteries, use only rechargeable batteries, type AAA 1.2 Volt,
550mAh. You receive spare batteries over the AUDIOLINE spare part sales under Phone
040 / 3258440.
Do not throw batteries in the fire or immerse them in water. Do not dispose of old or
defective batteries with normal domestic waste.
The maximum standby and talk times quoted are applicable for the rechargeable
batteries or battery packs under optimum conditions. Ambient temperature, charging
cycle and other external factors, such as the radio loading in the area of use, can
considerably reduce the operating times. Furthermore, the charging capacity is reduced
for technical reasons during use or when stored at very high or low temperatures.
Charging the handset
If the handset becomes warm when charging, this is quite normal and no cause for
alarm. Only charge the handset on the base station. The use of other chargers may
cause lasting damage.
Transformer plug
Use only the AUDIOLINE transformer plug supplied, other transformer plugs can destroy
your telephone. Opening the power supply plug while it is plugged into the supply mains
could lead to personal injury and death.
