Verizon V300AM – more than just a telephone

V300AM / USA EN / A31008-xxxxx-xxxx-x-6019 / starting.fm / 3.1.08

Verizon V300AM –

more than just a telephone

Your phone not only enables you to store

up to 150 telephone numbers (page 15) –

it can do a whole lot more:

uYou can designate important people as

VIPs so you can identify important calls

from the ringtone (page 15).

uYou can store anniversary dates

(page 16) in your phone and it will

remind you of them in advance.

uSelect frequently used phone numbers

at the press of a single key (page 15).

uView missed calls on your phone

(page 18).

uSelect 12 or 24-hour format for dis-

playing the time (page 10).

uECO DECT reduces power consumption

by using a power supply with low

power consumption. Your handset

reduces the transmitting power

depending on the distance to the base

station (close-up range).

Have fun using your new telephone!

teries. Never use conventional (non-recharge-

able) batteries or other battery types as this

may cause significant damage to health and

property. For example, the outer casing of the

could explode. The phone could also malfunc-

tion or be damaged as a result of using batter-

ies that are not of the recommended type.

flashes, e.g. Base 1. The handset will be

assigned the lowest unassigned internal

intercom number (1–6).

This will appear in the display when regis-

tration is complete, for example INT 1. This

means that the number 1 has been

assigned. If the internal numbers 1–6 are

already assigned to other units, the

number 6 is overwritten.

To charge the batteries, leave the handset

in the base station.

base or charging cradle continuously

Note:

– Automatic registration is only possible if

no-one is making calls using the base sta-

tion.

Caution:

–You should always check the operation

of the room monitor before use. For

example, test its sensitivity. Check the

connection if you are diverting the room

monitor to an outside number.

– When the function is switched on the hand-

set's operating time is severely reduced. If

necessary, place the handset in the base.

This ensures that the batteries do not run

down.

– Ideally the handset should be positioned

1 to 2 meters away from the sound being

monitored. The microphone must be

directed towards the monitored sound.

– The connection to which the room monitor

is diverted must not be blocked by an acti-

vated answer machine.

consult your telephone company or a qualified

installer.

This telephone system equipment has been

tested and found to comply with the limits for

Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the

FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following

two conditions: (1) This device may not cause

harmful interference, and (2) This device must

accept any interference received, including

interference that may cause undesired opera-

tion. These limits are designed to provide

reasonable protection against harmful interfer-

ence in a residential installation. Some cordless

telephones operate at frequencies that may

cause interference to nearby TV’s and VCR’s;

to minimize or prevent such interference, the

system base should not be placed near or on

top of a TV or VCR; and, if interference is expe-

rienced, moving the base farther away from

the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate

the interference.

However, there is no guarantee that interfer-

ence will not occur in a particular installation.

If this telephone system does cause harmful

interference to radio or television reception,

which can be determined by turning the system

off and on, the user is encouraged to try to

correct the interference by one or more of the

following measures:

1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

2. Increase the separation between the base

station and receiver.

3. Connect the base station into an outlet on a

circuit different from that to which the receiver

is connected.

4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio

TV technician for help.

asterisk will move to the end of the direc-

tory.
