The set contains: 1 Cordless phone 2 Battery 3 Clip 4 Assembly card Note: It is important to make a note of the IPEI code. The IPEI code may be needed for unblocking the Cordless phone if an incorrect PIN code has been entered three times. See section “IPEI code” on page 6 for further details.
Installation Preparing for use When using the Cordless phone for the first time, follow the steps below to prepare the Cordless phone. Attach the clip to the back as shown in the figure below. Do not press on the display.
Installation Attach the battery to the phone as shown in the figure below. Make sure that the battery wires are put through the notches as shown.
Installation Connect the adapter to the charger and connect it to the mains outlet as shown in the figure below. Notes: Place the DT290 in the charger and charge it for at least 4 hours before using it the first time. Make sure the local mains voltage corresponds to the voltage on the charger. Only use the charger that comes with the Cordless phone. Do not connect the phone to the charger without a battery. Place the Cordless phone in the charger to charge the battery.
Installation Battery The Cordless phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. You can fully charge an empty battery by placing the Cordless phone in the charger for 4 hours. A fully charged battery gives you up to 17 hours calling time or up to 140 hours standby time. Note: The calling time and standby time is shortened if the hands-free speaking function is used a lot. The Cordless phone has a battery meter, which indicates the power remaining in the battery.
Installation Charging the battery Place the Cordless phone in the charger as shown in the figure below. The battery is being charged when the lower green LED on the charger is on (and the battery meter on the display flashes). If the battery is completely empty it can take a few minutes before the lower green LED on the charger is lit.
Installation Changing the battery Rechargeable batteries have a limited lifespan. If the standby time for the Cordless phone becomes too low, you should replace the battery. Please contact your system administrator or supplier for more information. Note: Only use the specified batteries (NiMH pack 600 mAh, 3.6 V). The battery does not contain cadmium and is therefore more environmentally-friendly than other rechargeable batteries. However, all batteries should be treated as chemical waste.
