General Instructions
Rechargeable batteries
!When replacing the batteries, use rechargeable type AAA,
Ni-MH 1.2 Volt batteries, with a minimum rating of 550mAh.
Contact 2C Telecoms (Pty) Ltd on 0860 22 43 57 for
replacement batteries if your nearest dealer cannot supply
you.
!Do not throw batteries in a fire or immerse them in water.
!Should the handsets become warmer when charging there is
no cause for alarm, as this is quite normal.
!Only charge the handset on the base station or supplied
charging base. The use of other charging bases may cause
damage to the batteries or handset.
!Use only the 3-pin AC power adaptor that was supplied, other
power adaptors may cause damage.
Location of the base station
!The base station must be located within reach of a 230 Volt
power outlet socket. To avoid interference problems, do not
place the base station in the immediate proximity of other
electrical equipment such as a microwave oven or hi-fi
system. The location of the base station can significantly
influence the proper functioning of the telephone. It is also
beneficial to prevent the use of multi-power adaptors as these
can induce electrical interference.
!Place the base station on a level, non-slip surface. The feet of
the base station will not normally mark the surface on which it
stands. However, the wide range of surface finishes in use,
renders it impossible to exclude marking of any surface.
!Do not use the handset in areas where there is a danger of
explosion.
!Avoid excessive exposure to smoke, dust, vibration,
chemicals, humidity, high temperature or direct sunlight.

5
!Choose a central location for your base station. For maximum
range the base station should be placed in the centre of the
area in which you would like to use your handset.
Temperature and ambient conditions
!Your telephone is designed for indoor use and an operating
temperature range of -10 C to 50 C.
!The base station must not be installed in humid areas such as
bathrooms. Avoid proximity to sources of heat such as
radiators and do not expose the unit to direct sunlight.
Cleaning and care
!The outer surfaces of the unit can be cleaned with a soft, dry,
lint-free cloth. Never use cleaning agents or solvents. Apart
from occasionally cleaning the outer surfaces, no further care
is required. The rubber feet of the base station are not
resistant to all cleaning agents. Telkom cannot, therefore, be
held responsible for damage to furniture etc.
NOTE: Your telephone is guaranteed for a period of 12 calendar months
from the date of purchase as indicated on your till slip. Keep your till slip
in a safe place as it will be required for guarantee repairs. It is however
not guaranteed against damage caused by misuse, riot damage,
lightning or power surge damage, damage caused by using the unit for
purposes other than which it was intended or any damage that can be
deemed an act of God.
NOTE: No calls can be made or received during a power failure or if
your power adaptor is disconnected from the 230 volt supply.

2.3 Connecting the base station and charging base
Set-up your telephone’s base station and charging base within reach of
a telephone socket and power outlet socket.
1. Insert the relevant cord from the1st power adaptor (with the
clear off-centre tab) into the socket at the back of the base
and the 2nd power adaptor (with the off-centre tab on the red
plug) into the socket at the back of the charging base. Plug
the power adaptors into a conveniently located power socket.
2. Connect the telephone line cord between the telephone
socket at the back of the base station and the telephone wall
socket.
3. Clip the base station stand into position over the cables by
sliding it into position from above. This step must be omitted if
you intend two wall mount your phone. (See 2.8)
2.4 Replacing the batteries
!When replacing the batteries, use rechargeable AAA
Ni-MH 1.2 Volt batteries of at least 550mAh. Replacement
batteries are available from your nearest Telkom Direct Store
or major retail outlet.
!To fit the batteries into the handsets, press down on the upper
edge of the battery compartment cover and slide it away from
the handset. Remove the faulty batteries and then fit the new
batteries. In doing so, be careful to ensure that the polarity is
correct as indicated. Carefully replace the cover and slide it
back until it clicks into position.
IMPORTANT NOTICE - Charging the batteries for the first time :
Place the handset on the base station and charging base for at least 16
hours. If the batteries are not properly charged, the telephone may fail to

The actual condition of the batteries are shown on the LCD display with
the battery capacity symbol shown below :
Full Half Low
If the remaining charge in the batteries is too low, the symbol on the
display will blink.
NOTICE: Like your car battery, the rechargeable batteries suffer from a
certain, unavoidable ageing effect. You can, however, minimize this by
exercising the batteries correctly. As you use your telephone, always
start with the fully charged batteries and continue using it until they are
“empty” as indicated by the blinking symbol on the display. Then
recharge them fully. This will maintain maximum battery capacity for as
long as possible. Repeated partial charging and discharging will cause a
“memory effect” which will result in reduced capacity.

station stand must not be fitted (See 2.3).
1. Drill two holes in the wall 45mm horizontally apart using a
8mm drill bit.
