on the handset (change user). For detailed information see pages 13 and 36.
User benefit
•Call charge data can be acquired separately (for each subscriber number)
•The individually determined ringing tone and name signals a call to the respective
user.
•The following settings can be configured individually for each user or subscriber number:
–User name
–Ringing tone
–Identity restriction
–Call-waiting on/off
–Call forwarding on/off
–Acquire/display charge data

Safety notes / Contents of package
Safety notes
The DECT cordless telephone is used for
transmitting voice via the analogue tel-
ephone network.
No other type of use is permitted and will
be regarded as contrary to the telephone’s
intended use.
The User Guide and its safety notes are an
integral part of the equipment and must
be handed over to the new owner when
reselling the equipment.
Warning!
Only use approved nickel-metal hydride
(NiMH) batteries or nickel-cadmium (NiCd)
batteries!
NiMH AAA: • Sanyo: HR-4U
• Panasonic: AAA P-03P
• Varta: VH 551 AAA
• Maxell: Ace HR-AAA
NiCd AAA: • Panasonic: P-25 AAAR
• Sanyo: N-4U
Using other battery cell types or non-re-
chargeable batteries/primary cells can be
dangerous and can lead to malfunctions
of and/or damage to the set. Ascom can-
not accept any liability in such cases.
•Make sure you have set the
battery type on the handset
correctly!
• Make sure the battery cells are fitted
correctly!
• Do not immerse the battery cells in
water; do not throw them into the
fire.
• Battery cells can become warm when
being charged; this is a normal and
harmless process.
• Do not use third-party charging
stations as they may damage the
battery cells.
• Only use the enclosed SNG 4 af power
supply unit for the base station and
the charging bracket.
• Before using the telephone, hearing-
aid users should be aware that radio
signals interfere with hearing aids and
can cause an unpleasant humming
noise if sufficiently loud
.

Installation location/range
Installation location
Do not position the base station on a me-
tallic surface or in the immediate vicinity of
other electronic appliances such as hi-fi
equipment, office equipment or microwave
ovens; this will prevent any mutual inter-
ference. Also avoid installing the base sta-
tion in the vicinity of heat sources, such as
radiators, or in direct sunlight. For the best
possible range we recommend a central
installation location at the centre of your
radius of action. Avoid installation in niches,
small rooms or behind steel doors. To pre-
vent radio feedback in other telephones,
we recommend the largest possible dis-
tance (min. 1 m) between the base station
or handset and the other telephone.
Setting up your telephone
Your telephone is designed to be used un-
der normal operating conditions. Modern
furniture is treated with an endless variety
of lacquers and plastic coatings. Some of
these substances may contain agents which
will attack or deform the plastic feet of the
base station. If the equipment feet are
chemically altered in this way, they may
leave unsightly marks on the surface of
furniture. Ascom cannot accept any liabil-
ity for damage of this kind. We recommend
that you use a non-slip underlay for your
telephone, especially on new furniture or
furniture treated with lacquer-based pre-
servatives.
Range
The radio range is up to 300 m in the open.
Ambient conditions can affect the range,
as can room and building-related factors.
The effective range is considerably lower
inside buildings than outdoors. Silent zones
can occur due to the digital transmission
in the frequency range used – and also
within the range, depending on the struc-
tural environment. In such cases the trans-
mission quality can be affected by repeated,
short call-interruptions. Normal call quality
can be restored simply by moving slightly
out of the silent zone. If the range is ex-
ceeded, the call will be disconnected shortly
afterwards (if necessary switch on range
warning tone).
Listening protection
The Ascom Eurit 133 transmits the voice
data between base station and handset in
encrypted form (scrambled). As a result any
tapping of your calls by other cordless tel-
ephones, radio receivers, scanners, etc., is
precluded.

Connecting the base station
Warning!
Make sure you do not confuse the plugs
of the connecting cord and plug-in mains
unit cord on the base station. If you do
connect up the wrong plugs, the base sta-
tion will not function and may be damaged.
Connecting cord
The connecting cord (1) has two different
plugs. Insert the smaller one into the socket
(telephone symbol) underneath your tel-
ephone until it snaps firmly into place. Feed
the cord through the moulded cable duct
provided. Connect the larger plug into your
telephone socket.
Mains unit cable
Fit the plug from the mains unit cable (2) –
until it clicks into place – into the socket
identified with the mains unit symbol, then
feed the cable through the moulded cable
duct provided. Now plug the plug-in mains
unit into a 230V outlet.
Note:
Your telephone will not function if the
mains unit is not plugged in or if the power
supply fails.
The telephone may only be used in con-
junction with an SNG 4 af mains unit, tested
in compliance with EN60950 Protection
Class 2.
Disconnecting the cords from
the base station
First unplug the mains unit from the 230V
mains socket. To release the plugs on the
connecting cord and mains unit cables,
press the snap-in clip towards the plug body
(using a small screwdriver for instance) and,
at the same time, pull the plug out by the
cable.

cover by pressing it slightly and
sliding it downwards.
2. Insert the 3 battery cells into the
battery compartment (as shown).
Make sure the polarity is correct.
3. Slide the battery compartment cover
back until it clicks into place.
4. Switch the handset on by pressing
the connect key.
Setting up the telephone and putting it into service
Note:
If the battery cells are inserted incorrectly,
the handset will not function.
Do not use a mix of different types of bat-
teries.

20313553en_ba_a0
Note:
An audible acknowledgement tone at the
start of the battery charging process sig-
nals that the handset is correctly positioned
on the base station. If the battery cells are
completely discharged, the audible ac-
knowledgement tone will be heard only
once the battery cells have received a mini-
mum charge.
When the battery cells are first inserted,
the battery status is unclear. Correct indi-
cation is obtained only after a complete
charging cycle.
Do not use batteries/primary cells,
only NiMH or NiCd battery cells.
Do not place the handset on the base sta-
tion if the battery cells have not been fit-
ted.
Please observe the following to obtain
a long service life for your battery cells:
• Prior to initial use, NiMH battery cells
have to be charged without interrup-
tion for at least 12 hours.
• Make sure the charging contacts do
not come into contact with metallic or
greasy parts.
• After long periods out of operation
with the power switched off (e.g.
during holidays), charge the handset
(the battery cells) before putting the
set back into operation.
• Please dispose of defective battery
cells in the correct way (not in
domestic waste).
• Only remove the battery cells from the
handset to replace them with new
ones.
• Do not charge the battery cells out of
the handset.
Charging the battery cells
The battery cells are not charged when
supplied. To charge the batteries you need
to place the handset onto the base station.
An audible acknowledgement signal indi-
cates that the handset is correctly posi-
tioned.
A set of NiMH battery cells (550mAh) pro-
vides approx. 140 hours "standby" or
approx. 15 hours "continuous talk time".
The charging time is approx. 12 hours.
A set of NiCd battery cells (250mAh) pro-
vides approx. 70 hours "standby" or
approx. 7 hours "continuous talk time".
The charging time is approx. 6 hours.
The section "Handset settings" on page 35
describes how to select the battery type.
Note:
The batteries may be destroyed if the hand-
set is programmed for the wrong battery
type.
Battery indicator
The battery indicator on the display shows
the approximate charging status of the
battery cells:

Basic settings
User concept
With your Ascom Eurit 133 you can set up
a maximum of five users on one handset,
e.g. with one user name "Private",
"Daughter" and "Business". If two user
names have been programmed, "Change
user" appears after pressing the menu key
"Pm", and with the Fox key "U"you can
select the desired user (Private, Daughter,
or Business).
Setting up users
Important:
To be able to take advantage of all the func-
tions of your Ascom Eurit 133, you have to
set up at least one user, i.e. program at least
one multiple subscriber number [MSN].
Note:
If no multiple subscriber number (MSN) is
allocated to the handset, the telephone
always dials via the same MSN; in the case
of incoming calls all registered handsets
always ring.
You determine the designation of the user
(Private, Daughter etc.) under "Handset
settings". In the case of incoming calls, the
set then immediately signals whom the call
is intended for.
