Installation
Batteries
The telephone is supplied with environmentally friendly nickel metal hydride (NiMH)
batteries, 2 x AAA 1.2V. As with all batteries performance may degrade over time,
should you notice that the standby time has reduced considerably or there are signs of
leakage, both batteries should be replaced.
Fully charged batteries will last for approx 170 hours in standby or approx 10 hours
call time. The stated times apply under normal room temperatures and when using
fully charged batteries.
Completely discharged batteries will take about 14 hours to fully recharge (24 hours
from new).
Please note that the battery charge indicator in the display ashes while charging.
The ashing will stop when the battery is fully charged.
The base unit has an automatic charging mechanism that prevents the batteries from
being overcharged or damaged due to prolonged charging.
Please note!
When the telephone is installed for the rst time, the batteries must be charged for 24 hours before
using the telephone. Use DORO original batteries only. The guarantee does not cover any damage
caused by incorrect batteries. The handset is charged with the keypad facing outwards. Please dispose
of any batteries in a responsible and environmentally friendly manner.
Battery Charge Indicator
The symbol in the display indicates when its is time to recharge the battery. The
symbol has two segments which disappear as the battery charge decreases. When the
battery is running low, the symbol will appear in the display and a warning tone
will be heard. If the handset is not recharged at this time, the phone will cease to
function until it is recharged.

Installation
Range
The range of the telephone varies depending on different factors in the surrounding
enviroment. The radio waves transmitting the call may be hindered by obstructions,
reducing the range.
Specied ranges require unobstructed transmission between the handset and the base
unit. In such ideal conditions, the telephone range can be up to 300 metres. In a
densely populated area, house, apartment, etc. the range of the telephone will be
reduced. Try to get the best range by relocating the base unit. The ideal location for
the base unit is a high and unobstructed place.
Out of range warning
If during a call the handset is carried too far from the base unit, the sound quality
deteriorates. Unless the handset is moved closer to the base unit within a few seconds,
the call will be lost.
IMPORTANT!
To reduce the risk of possible interference please do not locate the base unit near any electrical
equipment e.g. TV’s, computers, fridges, telecom equipment etc or close to radiators, metal pipes or
window frames. Also ensure the base unit is not exposed to direct sunlight, excessive heat, damp
or high humidity locations.

Expanded System
General Information
DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telephone) technology offers superior perfor-
mance, clarity and security using its completely digital method of transmission.
You can:
- Use (register) up to 4 handsets with the same base unit.
- Use (register) up to 2 base units with the same handset.
- Make internal calls (intercom) and transfer calls between handsets using the same
base unit.
Additional base units and handsets can be purchased from your local retailer.
This model is GAP (Generic Access Prole) compatible, which means that the
handset and the base unit can both be used with most GAP compatible units
irrespective of manufacturer.
Multiple Base Units
By connecting several base units to the system, the useful range for the handset can
be expanded.. Registering multiple base units with the handset will cause the handset
to automatically connect to another base if and when it loses contact with the current
base unit Another practical application could be to have one base station at home and
one at work. Then the same handset can be used in both places.
The handset remains in contact with its base unit until it goes out of range. When this
happens, the handset will begin to search for another base from its list of registered
base units. It is essential that the range of the base units overlap, in order to achieve
uninterrupted coverage. The transfer from one base unit to another will then be
automatic, however, this will not occur while a call is in progress. If not, there may
be reduced communication in certain areas where the handsets have no signal from
the base units.
More about placement of the base units on the next page.
IMPORTANT!
Automatic switching between base units (handset handover) will not occur while a call is in progress.

English
www.doro.com 19
Expanded System
Multiple Handsets
The combination of multiple base units and multiple handsets provides for many
useful applications. So long as all handsets are programmed to the same base unit.
- Any handset can answer incoming calls, and make outgoing calls.
- External calls can be transferred between handsets.
- Internal handset to handset communication (intercom).
Base Units Placement
If you wish to use several handsets with one base unit, you should make sure that
the base unit is placed “in the middle”, to evenly divide the base unit range among
the handsets.
If you wish to use several base units to achieve an extended coverage within a specic
area, eg a large home or ofce, a storage area, etc, then it is important that the range
of the base stations overlap. If not there may be a reduced communication in certain
areas where a handset has no signal from the base units.
Intercom Function
When using several handsets with the same base unit, calls can be made internally
between the handsets, this is referred to as an internal call. Internal calls can only be
made between handsets operating on the same base unit.
1. Press i.
2. All other handsets will now ring.
3. Answer the call by pressing o on one of the other handsets.
If an external call is received while an intercom call is in progress, a tone will be
heard. You will then have to terminate the intercom call to answer.
Transferring Calls Between Handsets
An external call can be transferred from one handset to another (so long as both
handsets are operating on the same base unit).
1. While an external call is connected on line.
2. Make an internal call according to the description above. A tune will be played
to the incoming caller.
3. Transfer the call by pressing o. Answer the call by pressing o on one of
the other handsets.
If you decide not to transfer the call, press i on your handset to return to the
external caller.

The Answering Machine (5045)
About the Answering Machine
The answering machine has to be turned on in order to receive messages. On incoming
calls the telephone will be answered after the selected number of rings (please refer

outgoing message (OGM) followed by a short beep, at which point they can leave an
incoming message (ICM) of up to 2 minutes in length. Should the caller exceed this
limit, the call will be disconnected.

Outgoing Message (OGM)
The OGM is your announcement to the caller and may be up to 2 minute in length. If
you choose not to record your own OGM, the caller will hear a prerecorded OGM. Use
your OGM to advise the caller to begin talking after a beep is heard. For example:
“Hello, we are unable to take your call right now, please leave a message after the beep,
and we’ll return your call as soon as possible. Thank you for calling.”
Recording your OGM
1. Ensure the a symbol is visible within the display, and the a button located on
the back of the handset is illuminated.
2. The total number of (new) recorded ICM’s will now be announced.
3. Press 8 to stop playback.
4. Press 4 5.
5. Record your OGM.
6. Press 8 to stop recording.
7. Your OGM will be repeated after a few seconds. Repeat the same procedure above
if you wish to change the OGM. Any old OGM will automatically be erased when
a new one is recorded.
