Safety Instructions
So that you can quickly set up and safely use your device, please read the following safe-
ty instructions and the chapter Setting Up your Telephone (Page 7) thoroughly. Store
this operating manual somewhere ready to hand. It is essential that you observe the fol-
lowing instructions when installing, connecting and operating the telephone:
• During power outages this telephone cannot be used to place emergency calls.
Make sure that you have other options for placing calls at your disposal, when
the need arises.
• Place the device on a non-slip underlay. Lacquer or other plastic coatings can attack
and soften the plastic feet of the device. If the feet are damaged in this way, they
can leave stains on the surfaces of furniture. The manufacturer accepts no liability for
this type of damage.
• Lay the connecting cords in an accident-proof manner!
• Only connect the cords to the designated jack/socket.
• For the base use only the AC adaptor provided.
• For the charging cradle use only the AC adaptor provided.
• You must not obstruct access to the AC adaptor with furniture or other objects.
• Connect only approved accessories.
• Never expose the device to the following influences: Heat sources, direct sunlight,
dampness (e.g. in the bathroom), and other electrical devices.
• Protect your device from moisture, dust, aggressive fluids and steam.
• Do not expose the telephone to any strong magnetic fields (electromotors, television
sets, video recorders, HiFi systems, electrical household appliances), since these can
cause disturbances, impair range or cause malfunctions.
• Only clean your device with a lightly dampened or antistatic cloth. Do not use clea-
ning agents or chemical products.
• Never open the handset or base by yourself!
• Never carry the device by the connecting cords!
• Never touch the contacts with pointed, metallic or damp objects.
• If you have questions please contact a professional. Repairs may only be carried out
by a specialist.

Welcome
Congratulations on choosing the Aton CLT321, a cordless telephone for connecting to
the analogue telephone network in Switzerland or an analogue extension of a telecom-
munications system. With the digital DECT standard the devices are more bug-proof than
the analogue devices designed in accordance with the CT1+ standard (operation no lon-
ger allowed since Jan 2009), which it was possible to bug using commercially available
scanners. But even DECT devices do not offer 100% protection. Greater bugging
defences than those offered by the DECT standard are guaranteed at the present time
only by corded devices.
You can operate up to 5 handsets from one base station and conduct internal calls bet-
ween these handsets free of charge. One handset can be registered on up to 4 base sta-
tions.
Your Aton CLT321 supports the CLIP feature (display of caller’s number), provided that
the information is available on your connection and the caller has not suppressed his
number. Thus, in conjunction with the call list, you will be informed about every call you
receive, even while you are absent.
With your Aton CLT321 you can use the Swisscom SMS service to send SMS messages to
or receive them from SMS-enabled terminal devices, e.g. mobile phones, PCs or other
fixed-line telephones.
Your Aton CLT321 is equipped with a digital answering machine, which can be comfor-
tably operated from the handset and the base.
We hope you enjoy your Aton CLT321.

ECO Mode (Ecomode plus / Automatic regulation of the power level)
“ECO Mode” is already activated by default, i.e. the transmission signals will
be switched off in stand-by mode. This setting can be restored at any time by
resetting the base station (see page 69).
When inactive the transmitters on the base as well as on the handset are switched off
completely, the radiation load is thus reduced to zero.
During a call the power level is demand-actuated, i.e. the closer the handset is located to
the base, the lower is the power level. The maximum available power level can be set to
three different levels (see page 64 / [ECO Mode]) :
- [Full range] = max. power level: 100% (default setting)
- [Half range] = max. power level: approx. 45%
- [One room] = max. power level: approx. 20%
- [Desk] = max. power level: approx. 10%
- [Off] = Switched off
This function is only guaranteed to work when Aton CLT321 handsets are
registered on the base station. Registering other handsets, such as previous
model ranges, is possible, in which case, however, the aforementioned
requirements will not be fulfilled.

Unpacking the telephone
The package contains:
➭1 Handset
➭1 Base station
➭1 AC adaptor (type SNG 24 ea)
➭1 Telephone connecting cord (cable RJ11 / RJ11, adaptor TT83 / RJ11)
➭1 Battery (Li-Ion)
➭3 User manuals (German, French, Italian)
Installation site
In order to keep exposure to radiation from the base station as low as possible, you
should not install the base in immediate proximity to bedrooms or children’s rooms.
For the best range possible we recommend a central installation site for the base station,
in the middle of your sphere of activity. Avoid installing it in niches, small rooms and
behind steel doors.
The maximum range between the base station and the handset is approx. 820 ft (250
m). Depending on environmental conditions, as well as the spatial and structural situati-
on, the range can be lower. In buildings the range is, as a rule, lower than in the open.
As a consequence of digital transmission in the frequency range being used, dead zones
can appear depending on the structural setting within that range. In this case the trans-
mission quality can be reduced by additional, brief transmission gaps. By a slight move-
ment out of the dead zone the usual transmission quality will be regained. When the
transmission range is exceeded the connection will be severed if you do not return to the
range area within ten seconds.
In order to prevent radio-induced coupling with other electronic devices, we recommend
as large a distance as possible (min. 3.3 ft (1 m)) between the base station or handset
and other devices.

Minimisation of electrical energy consumption during prolonged absences
During prolonged absences you should switch the handset off (see page 19) and avoid
placing it on a charging station (base station / charging cradle) in order to conserve the
environment and to minimise the uptake of electrical energy.
Connecting the telephone
So that you can operate your telephone, you have to plug in the connecting cord for the
telephone connection as well as the power cable.
For the base station use only the power adaptor provided (type SNG 24 ea).
Telephone – connecting cord
The telephone connecting cable consists of two parts
• Connecting cable with RJ 11 plugs at both ends
• Adaptor TT83 / RJ11-socket
Plug the adaptor into the TT jack, then plug one end of the connecting cable into the
RJ11 socket of the adaptor, and finally plug the other end into the socket labelled with a
telephone symbol.
