SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS 3 FEATURES OF YOUR TELEPHONE Hearing-Aid Compatible Handset The handset on your Centurion telephone works with magnetically-coupled hearing aids. Ringer Volume Control The 3-position switch (located on the back of the telephone) is used to set ringer volume. Set control on the left side for high ring volume or toward the right for low or off. TONE/PULSE Switch The TONE/PULSE switch, located on the back of your telephone, is used to set the type of dialing for your telephone to match the local service from your telephone company. The 'P' position is for Pulse dialing service. The 'T' position is for Tone dialing service. (Some telephone companies cannot accept Tone dialing.) Telephone Line Cord Jack Connect the modular line cord supplied with your telephone at this jack: long cord for desk installation; short cord for wall installation. VISUAL RING INDICATOR The Visual Ring Indicator will light when a ringing signal is applied to the telephone. TONE BUTTON The tone button is used to change the dialing mode from pulse to tone during a dialing sequence, when your local service is set for rotary dial service. FLASH Button The FLASH button sends an interrupt signal to the distant office. The interrupt is a 600-millisecond, timed line disconnect which tells the distant office that you wish to use an available feature. The results of a FLASH signal will depend on the services you have available. 4 FEATURES OF YOUR TELEPHONE RD/P Button (Redial/Pause) Your Centurion telephone stores in memory the last number dialed (31 digits maximum). You can redial the last number dialed by lifting the handset and pressing the RD/ P button. It must be the first button pressed after lifting the handset to activate the redial feature. You can erase the number stored in memory by lifting the handset and dialing any digit. To use the Pause feature, press the RD/P button while dialing your number to insert a two-second pause. Pushbutton Dial The pushbutton dial is used to dial numbers using either pulse or tone dialing. IN-USE Indicator The in-use indicator will light when the handset is lifted from the cradle. VOLUME CONTROL Your telephone complies with the latest FCC part 68 regulations by having a switch in its handset (see location of switch as shown in pictorial) that allows the user to increase the subset's receive volume. This increased volume should allow persons with hearing impairments to carry on normal conversations by adjusting the receive volume to its proper level. 5 INSTALLING YOUR TELEPHONE UNPACKING YOUR TELEPHONE Check the contents of the carton. Make sure you have a telephone, a baseplate, a 7-foot handset cord, a long modular line cord, and a short modular line cord. If anything is missing or damaged, contact the place of purchase. MODULAR JACKS To install your telephone, you must have a modular wall jack at the desired location, or a 4-prong jack that can be modified with a 4-prong adapter. If your telephone line does not have a modular wall jack, or a jack that can be modified, you must have one installed. DANGER: To reduce the risk of electrical shock and personal injury, observe the following when installing station wiring: 1. Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm. 2. Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations. 3. Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface. 4. Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines. Various types of modular wall jacks are shown to the right. The USOC RJ11C modular wall jack is for desk telephones and the USOC RJ11W modular wall jack is for modular wall telephones.

Set the ringer volume control. If the control is set to OFF, you will not hear the ringer when someone calls you. 2. Your telephone has a TONE-PULSE switch. Set the switch to match the dialing service from the telephone company. • If you have pulse service, set the Tone-Pulse switch to PULSE. • If you set the switch for TONE service, you must have TONE service or you cannot dial. • If you set the switch for PULSE service and you haveTONE service, you can dial numbers, but you cannot use distant services, such as bank-by-phone, unless you press the TONE button. MAINTENANCE INFORMATION Treat your telephone with care for trouble-free performance. Avoid dropping the handset. Carefully place the handset on-hook after use. Clean your telephone with a damp cloth.

Plug a substitute telephone that is known to work properly into the same wall jack. • If the problem persists when using the substitute telephone, notify the telephone company. • If the substitute telephone works properly, you must have your telephone repaired before reconnecting it to the wall jack. DIAL TONE BUT NO RINGING • Check that the RINGER VOLUME CONTROL is not set to OFF. • Set the RINGER VOLUME CONTROL to HIGH and have someone on another line call you. Before answering the call, set the RINGER VOLUME CONTROL to the desired volume. DIAL TONE BUT NO DIALING • Set the TONE/PULSE switch.
