It is recommended that that battery packbe charged for approximately 15 to 20 hours,without interruption,before use.To charge the battery, place the handset, keypad down,in the base unit. Make sure the CHARGE LED on the base lights.If the LED does not light:1. Ensure that the AC adapter is plugged in.2. Ensure that the AC adapter is not plugged into a switchedelectrical outlet.3. Ensure that the handset charging contacts at the bottom of the handset are making good contact with the base unit’s charging contacts.CLEANING THE BATTERY CONTACTSTo maintain a good charge, it is important to clean all chargingcontacts on the handset and base unit. Use a pencil eraser orother contact cleaner. Do not use any liquids or solvents.BATTERY SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS1. Use only Teledex-approved battery replacements.2. Dispose of used batteries according to local codes pertainingto rechargeable batteries.3. Do not dispose of batteries in fire, as they may explode4. Charge the telephone's batteries only while in the telephone handset, and only by using the telephone base unit to charge.Do not attempt to remove the batteries and charge them in a separate charging unit.5. Do not short-circuit the battery pack, as this may cause it to explode or catch fire.HANDSET/BASE REGISTRATION PROCEDUREThis procedure establishes an exclusive link between a specifichandset and base, thereby allowing no other access to thisspecific base.To accomplish this procedure, place the handseton the base in the charging position. The LINE indicator willblink while the process is occuring. This process occurs eachtime the handset is placed on the base in the charging cradle.ADJUSTING THE RING VOLUMEThe up and down volume keys will adjust the ringer volume ofthe telephone. Additionally, the DCT1900 series telephone hasan optional “courtesy” ring mode, wherein the ring volumebegins at the lowest setting, then automatically rings louderwith each successive ring during an incoming call. To select thecourtesy ring mode, follow these steps:Press the FLASH key; then the 4key; then the STORE key; thenthe 1key.To return to regular ring mode: Press the FLASH key; then the 1key; then the STORE key; then the 1key.ADJUSTING SPEAKERPHONE VOLUMEThe speakerphone has eight (8) levels. To adjust speakerphonevolume, locate the volume up/down keys, located on the frontsurface of the phone below the keypad.

This telephone must be connected behind a PBX.REQUIREMENTS OF PART 15 - FCC RULESStatement according to FCC part 15.105:NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limitsfor a Class Bdigital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.These limitsare designed to providereasonable protection against harmful interference ina residential installation. This equipmentgenerates, uses and can radiateradio frequency energy and, if not installed and used inaccordance with theinstructions, may cause harmful interference to radiocommunications.However,there is no guarantee that interference will notoccur in a particular installation. Ifthis equipment does cause harmful inter-ference to radio or television reception, which can bedetermined by turningthe equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct theinter-ference by one or more of the following measures:. Reorient or relocate thereceiving antenna.. Increase the separation between the equipment andreceiver..

Consult the dealer or an experiencedradio/TV technician for help.Statement according to FCC part 15.21:Modifications not expresslyapproved by this company could void the user’s authority tooperate theequipment.RF Exposure Handset (DECT):This device and its antenna must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.RF Exposure mobile:The internal / external antennas used for this mobiletransmitter must provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from allpersons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with anyother antenna or transmitter.Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified bythe FCC with the UPCS handset transmitting at its highest certified powerlevel in all tested frequency bands.Although the SAR is determined at thehighest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the UPCS handset whileoperation can be well below the maximum value. In general, the closer youare to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before aHandset model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certi-fied to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the govern-ment-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed inpositions and locations at the ear as required by the FCC for each model.While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various UPCShandsets and at various positions,they all meet the government require-ment for safe exposure.Health and Safety Information FCC: Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF)Signals.Your wireless handset is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed andmanufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio fre-quency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of theU.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines andestablish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. Theguidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by both U.S. andinternational standards bodies: This EUT has been shown to be capable ofcompliance for localized specific absorption rate > (SAR) for uncontrolledenvironment/general population exposure limits specified in ANSI/IEEE> Std.C95.1-1992 and had been tested in accordance with the measurement pro-cedures specified in FCC/OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C (2001) and IEEE Std.1528-2003 December 2003).The standards include a substantial safety mar-gin designed to assure the safety of all persons,regardless of age andhealth. The exposure standard for wireless UPCS handset employs a unit ofmeasurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limitset by the FCC and IC Canada is 1.6W/kg *. * In the U.S. and Canada, theSAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) aver-aged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial mar-gin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account forany variations in.INDUSTRY OF CANADA REQUIREMENTSNOTICE: The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment.This certifica-tion means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network pro-tective operational and safety requirements as prescribed in the appropriateTerminal Equipment Technical Requirements documents.
