Getting Started
Your Avaya 6120 or 6140 WLAN Handset uses radio wave
technology to send and receive voice and data transmis-
sions. It is designed to operate much like a cell phone. How-
ever, the Handset uses the private communication system
installed in your facility and will not operate outside the area
covered by this system.

Avaya 6100 Series Battery Pack can be charged in any
Charger.
The Single and Dual Chargers allow the Handset to remain
operative in speakerphone mode or with a headset while
charging. Handsets may be charged while in standby mode,
while in an active call or while turned off.
Place the Single or Dual Charger on a flat, horizontal surface.
Plug the power supply into the Charger and into an appropri-
ate wall outlet. The Quad Charger may be mounted on a hor-
izontal or vertical surface.

English 11
Single Charger
Place the Handset in the Single Charger facing forward.
While the Handset is charging in standby mode, it will display
its extension number and Charging… as well as an ani-
mated Battery Icon in the display’s upper right corner. The
Handset is fully operational and will ring if called. When the
Handset is charging while turned off, only Charging… and
the animated Battery Icon will display and no calls will be
received. Note that during the Handset charging cycle, the
Charging... dots will be racing.
When the Handset is fully charged, Charge Complete will
display.
Dual Charger
Place the Handset in the front slot, facing forward. The Bat-
tery Pack alone snaps into the charging bay.
The LED indicates the status of the Battery Pack in the rear
bay. The Handset displays its charging status as described
for the Single Charger.
When the Handset is fully charged or is removed, the Battery
Pack will begin charging.
NOTE: The front slot takes precedence. If a discharged
Handset is placed in the front slot while a Battery Pack is
charging in the rear slot, the Charger will switch to the Hand-
set, only returning to the Battery Pack when the Handset is
fully charged or removed, thus extending the length of time it
takes to charge the Battery Pack.
Quad Charger
Only Battery Packs, not Handsets, are charged in the Quad
Charger. The Quad Charger will charge up to four Battery
Packs simultaneously. The Battery Pack snaps into the
charging slot. The LED above the occupied bay indicates the
charging status of the Battery Pack in the bay.

12 English
A flashing LED in the Dual Charger or the Quad
Charger may indicate a Battery Pack failure. Verify the
condition of the Battery Pack by the following procedure
before replacing it. First check the Battery Pack in a dif-
ferent bay or substitute another Charger and repeat the
operation that caused the failure. If the same Battery
Pack lights a steady LED when inserted in a different
bay or Charger, the first Charger may be faulty. Contact
your system administrator for service information.

English 13
Battery Packs
The Battery Packs must be recharged periodically. Three
Battery Pack options are available:
Type Talk Time Standby
Time Charging time
Standard 4 hours 80 hours 2 hours
Extended 6 hours 120 hours 3 hours
Ultra-
Extended 8 hours 160 hours 4 hours
The Battery Pack model type is printed on the label.
Remove the Battery Pack from the WLAN Handset
and view the label to determine the type of Battery
Pack you have been issued.

Safety Information
Safe Use of Chargers and Battery Pack
It is normal for the Battery Pack to become warm when
charging.
Chargers operate in a 50° to 85° F (10° to 30° C) environ-
ment. Do not expose them to freezing temperatures or direct
sunlight.
Do not place anything in the Charger other than the Handset
or single Battery Pack as appropriate, to avoid bending the
contacts. Bent contacts can keep the Battery Pack from
charging.
Only use Avaya Battery Packs with Avaya Chargers.
Never use a non-Avaya charging unit as it could damage the
Battery Pack.
Only use the original model plug-in power adapter for the
Chargers.
Contact your service representative for assistance if you
have a faulty Battery Pack or a problem with your Charger.
Avaya 6100 Series Chargers cannot charge Avaya 2200
Series Handsets/Battery Packs or vice versa.
!Do not immerse the Battery Pack in water or throw into
fire.
Do not throw away the Battery Pack with your domestic
waste. Take used Battery Packs to an appropriate col-
lection point for recycling or send them back to your
supplier or servicing agent.

English 15
!All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily
injury, such as burns, if a conductive material such as
jewelry, keys, or beaded chains touches exposed termi-
nals. The conductive material may complete an electri-
cal circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot. Exercise
care in handling any charged battery, particularly when
placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with
metal objects.

Operational Warnings—Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn off your Handset prior to entering any area with a poten-
tially explosive atmosphere. Do not remove, install, or charge
batteries in such areas. Sparks in a potentially explosive
atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily
injury or even death.
Electromagnetic Interference and Compatibility
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility
conflicts, turn off your Handset in any facility where posted
notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities
!WARNING: Changes or modifications to this equipment
that are not approved by Avaya may cause this equip-
ment to fail to comply with part 15 of the FCC rules,
voiding the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
!WARNING: This product contains no user-serviceable
parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service person-
nel.
!Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include
fueling areas such as below decks on boats, fuel or
chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the
air contains chemicals or particles suchas grain,dust, or
metal powders, and any other area where you would
normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often
posted, but not always.

Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends
that a minimum separation of 6 inches (15 cm) be maintained
between a handheld, wireless-radio product and a pace-
maker. These recommendations are consistent with the inde-
pendent research by, and recommendations of, Wireless
Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the Handset more than 6 inches (15 cm)
from their pacemaker when the Handset is turned ON.
• Not carry the Handset in a breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the
potential for interference.
• Turn the Handset OFF immediately if you have any rea-
son to suspect that interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some wireless Handsets may interfere with some hearing
aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to con-
sult your hearing-aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the man-
ufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately
shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able
to assist you in obtaining this information.
Use While Driving
Campus installations and warehouse facilities that use vehi-
cles such as forklifts or golf carts should abide by these
guidelines when using WLAN Handsets:
• Give full attention to driving and to the road, aisle, or
path.
• Use hands-free operation, if available.
• Pull off the road, aisle, or path and park before making or
answering
a call.

English 19
For Vehicles Equipped with an Airbag
Do not place a Handset in the area over the airbag or in the
airbag deployment area. An airbag inflates with great force. If
a Handset is placed in the airbag deployment area and the
airbag inflates, the Handset may be propelled at high speed
and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.

Care of your WLAN handset
• Avoid dropping the Handset or knocking it against hard sur-
faces. Carrying the Handset in a holster or carrying case will
help protect it.
• There are no serviceable parts in the Handset or Chargers.
You should not open the Handset case or disassemble the
Chargers. Doing so will void the warranty.
• Turn off the Handset and unplug Chargers before you clean
them. Take care not to exert undue pressure on Charger
electrical contacts while wiping.
• Wiping the Handset surface with a water-dampened cloth or
paper towel will remove most films or residues. If the soiling
is too stubborn for plain water, a mild detergent solution may
be used. A spray cleaner may be used with care. Do not
spray at an angle. Do not allow liquid cleaners to seep into
keypad. Be sure to wipe away any detergent residue with a
clean water-dampened cloth. Do not immerse.
• Should the headset connector become dirty, you may experi-
ence a scratchy or intermittent signal. To clean the connector,
dip the non-padded end of a wooden or paper cotton swab
stick in isopropyl alcohol. Gently insert in the connector and
twist, repeating several times. If available, blow compressed
air into the connector to clear debris.
• Keep the headset jack covered when it is not in-use.
• Using a carrying case may help protect the surfaces and help
prevent liquids (e.g., rain) from entering into the interior of the
Handset.
• If your Handset interior gets wet, do not try to accelerate dry-
ing with the use of an oven or a dryer as this will damage the
Handset and void the warranty. Instead, do the following:
1. Immediately power off the Handset.
2. Remove the Battery Pack from Handset.
3. Shake excess liquid from the Handset.
4. Place the Handset and Battery Pack in an upright position
in an area that is at room temperature and has good air-
flow.
