Please read the following safety instructions before using your wireless
headset.
ŸPlace the base station on a non-slippery surface and lay the connection cables out so
they cannot be the source of accidents.
ŸDo not expose the equipment to extreme temperatures or high relative humidity and
protect it from exposure to direct sunlight and dusty conditions.
ŸClean the equipment with a soft, damp cloth only. Do not use any solvents or aggressive
cleansing agents.
ŸOnly connect approved accessories, such as power plug, adaptors or handset lifter.
ŸNever open up the base station. Opening it annuls all warranty and exposes the user to
the risk of an electric shock.
ŸRepairs to defective units should only be carried out by service centers recommended
by the sales outlet.
ŸWe recommend removing the battery if the equipment is not to be used for prolonged
periods.
ŸOnly replace the battery with types recommended by Accutone. Dispose off defective
battery according to the applicable local laws (not with household waste).
ŸWe assume no liability for damage caused by using the equipment for unintended
purposes.

contained in this document is correct. The product and its accessories described in this
document are subject to constant improvement and further development. For this
reason, we reserve the right to modify components, accessories, technical
specifications and related documentation of the product described herein without

type, toxic materials could be released by misuse or damaging its surfaces.
ŸTo reduce the risk of fire or personal injury, use only the battery provided by Accutone.
ŸKeep battery out of children’s reach.

C. Setting up Handset Lifter
First of all, connect the Lifter Plug
into the Handset Lifter Jack
located on the back of the base
station.
(W) (16)
Flip over your handset lifter, and you
will find two stickers, one vertical and
one horizontal.
!
16
Lift up the handset and carefully
remove the sticker seals and place the
lifter on top of the speaker area (as
shown below) of the telephone under
the handset.
Not all telephones have a large flat
surface or the speaker area may not be
directly below the handset.
If so, just find any way to fix the lifter
underneath the handset, and follow
the instructions about using an
external sensor in section E.
Locate the Lifting Height Switch on the
front side of the lifter as illustrated. There
are 3 selection you can choose with the
top-most being the highest lifting distance.
(S)
As the weight and size of handsets vary
across telephones, you may need to use a
lower setting if the handset flies out of its
cradle due to its lightweight.
Now test the lifter by wearing the headset and pressing the answer button
on the headset, if there’s no response or the headset hasn’t been charged,
please refer to the next section and come back to here afterwards.
If the handset lifts up and you can hear a dial tone, your lifter setup is
completed. But if lifter lifts up the handset but not enough for picking up the
line signal, you will need to adjust the lifting height as below:
S
D. Adjusting Handset Lifter
T
But if even the highest setting is not
enough to lift the handset for picking a
line, try adding pads between lifter and
the telephone as shown below to
shorten the lift-distance.
The LED Indicator lights up when
you press the Answer Button on
your headset, indicating online status.

E. Using External Sensor for the Lifter
The internal sensor within the handset lifter is used to pick up the ring tone
of the telephone and transmit a signal to your headset so you know there’s
a call coming in while you are away from your desk.
The rechargeable battery of the WT99 headset is a detachable design and
can be replaced. It is a specific design and user should only use the official
battery supplied by Accutone. All rechargeable battery has a life-span and
should be removed from the headset during extended period of non-
usage. Contact your reseller for replacement battery purchase details.
F. Removing and Replacing Battery
