Introduction
NEC Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) G355,
G955 and I755 Handsets are cordless phones with enhanced features
suitable for office use. The handsets include a single-press SOS key
used to make one-touch calls or send messages to a particular contact
number.
The G955 and I755 DECT Handsets offer a text-messaging facility to
send and receive messages.
The I755 further offers a mandown feature and is with its sturdiness
very suitable for industrial environments.
NEC G355, G955 and I755 DECT Handsets are compatible both with
traditional DECT and IP DECT systems.
Feature overview
You can use the features of the NEC G355, G955 and I755 DECT
Handsets to perform the following tasks:
send and receive messages (only for G955 and I755 DECT
Handset)
configure audio and display settings
assign daily and recurrent alarms
use the calculator and stopwatch
automatic update of the time and date settings when switching on
the handset
central (or corporate) directory
Notice to the user
The G355, G955 and I755 DECT handsets described in this manual
should only be used in combination with DECT systems delivered by
NEC. In order to take advantage of all features described in this manual
the country and network provider specific features should match the
features of the NEC system.

Introduction
14
Mandown feature
The mandown feature of the I755 does not replace companion
supervision by a colleague or other people. In case of critical,
emergency or life-threatening situations make sure that other persons
are present or that appropriate measures are taken.
The functionality of the mandown alarm is based on a horizontal
handset position. Situations can occur in which the end-user requires
help, but the mandown alarm is not activated, because e.g. the set itself
is not in the horizontal position, the wireless connections are interrupted
or radio coverage in the environment where the mandown alarm is
being used, is not sufficient.
SOS function
The SOS function of the I755 does not replace companion supervision
by a colleague or other people. In case of critical, emergency or life-
threatening situations make sure that other persons are present or that
appropriate measures are taken.
Caution:
Like all cordless telephones, this handset uses radio
signals, which do not guarantee a connection under all
circumstances. Do not rely exclusively on cordless
telephones when making indispensable calls (such as
medical emergencies).
Use in environments with metal particles
G355 and G955
The G355 and G955 DECT Handsets are not meant for use in industrial
and/or production environments. Using the G355 and G955 DECT
Handset in environments with metal particles will cause small metal
particles to stick to the loudspeaker and to the earpiece. This will have a
deteriorating effect on the quality of the speech as heard by the user of
the DECT Handset.
I755
The I755 DECT Handset makes use of inductive charging. Because of
this the I755 is at some places very magnetic and it will therefore attract
metal objects. Metal particles might stick to the I755; this will not affect

Introduction
15
the operation. Nevertheless NEC strongly recommends using a
protective pouch for the I755 DECT handset when it is used in an
environment with small metal particles.

Important safety information
16
Important safety information
Only use this product in countries where the relevant authorities have
authorised its operation.
The I755 DECT Handset complies with IP54 Ŕaccording to IEC 529 /
EN 60529.
Sensitive Electronic Environment
Any radio-based equipment can potentially cause interference with
other equipment and can be interfered from other equipment. This also
applies for DECT equipment. However due to the very low transmission
power level the chances for interference are very small. Research
proves that operational DECT phones normally don't influence
electronic equipment however some precautions must be taken into
account for sensitive electronic equipment e.g. sensitive laboratory
equipment. When DECT phones operate in straight nearness of
sensitive electronic equipment incidental influence can appear. You are
advised not to place the DECT phone on or close (less than 10cm) to
this kind of equipment, even in standby mode. Please also use the
other documentation supplied with the various parts of your telephone
system.
Important battery information
These products use rechargeable Lithium-Ion batteries 3.7V, 650mAh.
Only use batteries that come with the handset or dedicated spare
batteries marked with “Battery Pack for G355/G955” or “Battery Pack
for I755” for the G355/G955 resp. the I755 handset. Do not use any
other type.
Never disassemble, customize or short-circuit batteries. Do not place
battery in fire or heat the battery.
Charge the battery of the G355 and G955 handset only in combination
with either:
G355/G955 DECT Handset Desktop Charger and the SALOM
SSW-1444 adapter that comes with the product;
G355/955 Charger Rack and the KINGS KSSI5-050-2500 that
comes with the Charger Rack.

Important safety information
17
Charge the battery of the I755 handset (either on its own or in the
handset) only in combination with either the:
I755 DECT Handset Desktop Charger and the Ten Pao
S008CM1200040 adapter that comes with the product;
I755 Charger Rack and the Ten Pao S040EM1200250 adapter
that comes with the Charger Rack.
Do not charge the batteries by any other means!
Plug the appropriate AC/DC adaptor in a wall outlet socket near the
equipment for easy access/removal of the AC/DC adaptor.
