Trademarks
Never open the telephone or a key module. Should you encounter any problems, contact the
responsible service personnel.
Use only original accessories. The use of other accessories may be hazardous and will render
the warranty, extended manufacturer’s liability and the CE marking invalid.
The device conforms to the EU directive 1999/5/EC as attested by the CE marking.
All electrical and electronic products should be disposed of separately from the municipal
waste stream via designated collection facilities appointed by the government or the local au-
thorities.
Proper disposal and separate collection of your old appliance will help prevent potential dam-
age to the environment and human health. It is a prerequisite for reuse and recycling of used
electrical and electronic equipment.
For more detailed information about disposal of your old appliance, please contact your city
office, waste disposal service, the shop where you purchased the product or your sales repre-
sentative.
The statements quoted above are only fully valid for equipment which is installed and sold in
the countries of the European Union and is covered by the directive 2002/96/EC. Countries
outside the European Union may impose other regulations regarding the disposal of electrical
and electronic equipment.

Location of the telephone
• The telephone should be operated in a controlled environment with an ambient temperature between 5°C
and 40°C.
• To ensure good speakerphone quality, the area in front of the microphone (front right) should be kept clear.
The optimum speakerphone distance is 50 cm.
• Do not install the telephone in a room where large quantities of dust accumulate; this can considerably re-
duce the service life of the telephone.
• Do not expose the telephone to direct sunlight or any other source of heat, as this is liable to damage the
electronic components and the plastic casing.
• Do not operate the telephone in damp environments, such as bathrooms.

About this manual
This document contains general descriptions of the technical options, which may not always
be available in individual cases. The respective features must therefore be individually de-
fined in the terms of the contract.
If a particular function on your phone is not available to you, this may be due to one of the
following reasons:
• The function is not configured for you or your telephone. Please contact your system
support representative.
• Your communications platform does not feature this function. Please contact your ser-
vice personnel for information on how to upgrade.
This user guide is intended to help you familiarize yourself with Octophon and all of its func-
tions. It contains important information on the safe and proper operation of your Octophon
phone. These instructions should be strictly complied with to avoid operating errors and en-
sure optimum use of your multifunctional telephone.
These instructions should be read and followed by every person installing, operating or pro-
gramming an Octophon phone.
This user guide is designed to be simple and easy to understand, providing clear step-by-
step instructions for operating your Octophon phone.
Administrative tasks are dealt with in a separate manual. The Quick Reference Guide con-
tains quick and reliable explanations of frequently used functions.

should be kept clear. The optimum speakerphone distance is 50 cm.
• Proceed as follows to optimize display legibility:
– Turn the phone to tilt the display to ensure you have a frontal view of the display while
eliminating light reflexes.
– Adjust the contrast as required ÆPage 110.
Multi-line telephone, executive/secretary functions
Your Octophon F615 TDM is a "multi-line telephone". This means that your service personnel
can configure multiple lines on your phone, which is not the case with single-line phones.

calls.

When using a multi-line phone to make and receive calls, certain particulars must be taken
into account ÆPage 92 ff.
The executive-secretary configuration is a special case. This is a multi-line telephone with
special features (e.g., "Ring Transfer" and "Accept call"), configured especially for executive/
secretary use ÆPage 90 ff.
Team functions
To increase the efficiency of telephony, your service personnel can configure various Team
functions such as pickup groups, hunt groups, and call distribution groups.
