To use the Music/Message-On-Hold feature: Connect one end of a standard
audio cable into a radio or audio player, and plug the other (3.5 mm) end into
the MOH jack on back of the base.
8. Connecting an external telephone answering device:
a. Follow instructions that come with the answering device.
b. An exemplary configuration: install the external answering device in-
between the wall phone jack(s) and the Base Station. Either a multiple
of single-line answering devices or a multiple-line answering device can
be used. You may want to disable the Base Station’s Auto-Attendant
function if that interferes with the external device’s built-in Auto-
Attendant.
Handset and Charger Installation
1. Plug the transformer end of the Charger AC/DC adaptor into a standard AC
electric power outlet, plug the other end into the “DC In” jack on the back of
the Charger.
2. Install battery onto the handset.
3. Install handset antenna.
4. Place handset onto the charger front slot. Battery is fully charged when the
corresponding LED turns green (see Charger Features).
5. The phone system is now ready to perform basic functions such as making
and receiving phone calls and intercom calls. No base station or handset
programming is needed for basic operations.
Notes:
a. Handset(s) packaged along with a Base Station are pre-registered at
the factory. If you have a new handset, you will need to register the
handset with the base station in order to be recognized as a member
handset by the base(s) and by other handsets. See Handset
Registration.
b. Fully charge battery before the first usage.

Basic Operations
Making a Telephone Call
1. Press TALK, wait for dial tone, and then enter phone number.
2. Alternatively, you can enter phone number first then press TALK key. When
using this method to dial out, you can use the Clear (Left) and Delete (Right)
soft keys to edit the number entered. “Delete” erases the last digit entered.
“Clear” erases the entire line but remains in the dialing mode.
3. To abort dialing, press END key.
Notes:
a. The Base Station will automatically search for an available line and
dial out. If Line Selection option has been enabled, the handset will be
prompted to select from a list of available lines.
b. If all 4 lines are occupied, including if some lines are made unavailable
to all handsets (lines can be dedicated to certain handsets, see Auto-
Attendant Operations), the LCD shows “No Lines Available” and
handset returns to standby mode.
c. If a link cannot be established, the LCD will show “No Connection”
after a 12-second time out.
d. A call duration timer will start displaying the length of the call after link
is established (regardless if and when the call is answered).
Making an Intercom Call
1. Press Intercom key followed by a two-digit handset ID or Group ID.
2. To abort dialing, press END key.
Notes:
a. Intercom calls can be made regardless if the Base Station is in
present.
b. If a Group ID is entered, the first handset (belonging to that group) that
answers will establish a link with the caller. See Handset Group
Subscription.
c. If a link cannot be established, the LCD shows “No Connection” after a
12-second time out.
