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 changes for interference are very small. Research proves
that operational DECT phones normally do not influence electronic equipment. However some
precautions must be taken into account for sensitive electronic equipment, such as 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 then 10 cm) to this kind of equipment, even in standby mode.

Regulatory Compliance Statements (EU/EFTA only)
Permission and Conformity
We, Avaya Inc., declare that the product line DECT R4 concurs with the basic requirements and
other relevant provisions of EU Directive 1999/5/EU concerning radio equipment and
telecommunications terminal equipment and the mutual recognition of their conformity.

Intended use
This equipment is intended for connection to radio interfaces (DECT) of Avaya PABX systems.
It is compliant with the essential requirements of the EU-Directive 1999/5/EU (Radio and
Telecommunication Terminal Equipment, R&TTE).
Due to the differences of the individual public networks and network operators this compliance
does not by itself give an unconditional assurance of successful operation at every network
termination point. For the time being we are not aware of any network on which the equipment
will not work due to its design.
In the event of problems, you should contact your equipment supplier or your Avaya service.
The conformity declaration can be accessed at the following Internet address:
http://www.avaya.com/gcm/emea/de/includedcontent/conformity.htm
or search the index using the key term "Conformity".

Important Safety Information

Frequency Range
The telephone is a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is on, it receives and sends out radio
frequency (RF) energy. The telephone operates on different frequency ranges depending on
market and employs commonly used modulation techniques:
EU

1880-1900 MHz

USA

1920-1930 MHz

LA

1910-1930 MHz

BR

1910-1920 MHz

Power Supply
The mains voltage of the adapter should match the local mains voltage, this can be 110 V or
230 V. Check if both voltages do match before installing the charger and adapter.

Safety Precautions
●

Do not open the cordless telephone or charger, this could expose you to high voltages.
Have all repairs carried out by authorized service personnel.

●

Avoid volume levels that may be harmful to your hearing. Exposure to excessive sound
pressure from a telephone's earpiece or headset may cause permanent hearing loss.

●

Do not allow the charger and the battery contacts to come into contact with conductive
objects such as keys, paper clips, rings or bracelets.

●

Do not allow the cordless telephone and charger to come into contact with water or
chemicals.

●

Only use the plug-in AC adapter and battery type supplied.

●

Do not use AC adapters which are visibly damaged (cracked or broken housing) and keep
the ventilation slits on the plug-in AC adapters free.

●

Do not use the cordless telephones in vehicles or in hazardous locations.

●

This product contains magnetic material. Be aware that small metallic objects may stick for
example to the loudspeaker. This may deteriorate the audio quality and can be harmful.

●

Save this manual. It includes important safety information and operating instructions.
Save all instructions for future reference.

●

Position the electrical cord to the AC power supply where it is least likely to be subjected to
damage or stress.

●

Remove the electrical cord from an outlet by pulling gently on the AC adapter, not by
pulling the cord.

●

Remove the battery before cleaning the telephone to reduce risk of electric shock.

●

Unplug the battery charger from a power source before cleaning the telephone to reduce
risk of electric shock.

●

Do not use auxiliary equipment with the telephone which is not exclusively recommended
by the manufacturer, see Accessories on page 18. The use of any auxiliary equipment not
recommended by the manufacturer may result in fire, electric shock, or injury, and will void
the warranty.

●

Do not expose the telephone to open flame.

●

Do not expose the telephone and the charger to direct sunlight for long periods. Keep the
telephone and charger away from excessive heat and moisture.

●

Do not allow heavy objects to fall on the telephone.

●

Do not allow children to play with the product packaging material. Product packaging
material is often small and may present a choking hazard.

●

Do not allow children to play with the telephone. It is not a toy. Children could hurt
themselves or others. Children could also damage the telephone.

●

Do not expose to prolong light.

Usage
Like all other cordless telephones, this cordless telephone uses radio signals which do not
guarantee a connection set-up under all circumstances. Generally, you should therefore not rely
exclusively on cordless telephones when making indispensable calls (for example, medical
emergencies).
