Introduction
This AT&T MS2015 telephone is not a standalone system. You must purchase
the MS2085 Console and register this telephone with the Console before use.
You can also register a MS2025 cordless handset to this telephone.
The MS2015 telephone is hearing-aid compatible and can be connected to
four incoming telephone lines. This telephone features a speakerphone for
handsfree use and a headset jack compatible with most two-band 2.5mm
headsets (sold separately).
There are two additional ports, known as the LAN port and PC port. The
Ethernet port allows the MS2015 telephone to connect with the MS2085
Console via a router. The PC port is for connecting the telephone to another
device such as a personal computer.
The MS2015 console enables paging, intercom, and call transfers between
system extensions and is capable of connecting three parties (two external
lines and a system extension) in the same conference call.
This telephone also features a 32-number one- and two-touch memory for
faster dialing and has a directory that can store up to 50 additional numbers
with names. This telephone has a caller ID feature that supports caller ID
with call waiting service. Caller ID services are subscriber services available
from many telephone service provider for a fee. The telephone can store up
to 200 caller ID entries.
Your MS2015 telephone also features a built-in digital answering system with
a private mailbox each that can store approximately 60 minutes of messages,
memos and conversations or a total of up to 99 messages. You can access
the answering system from a remote non-system touch-tone telephone
or from another system telephone. This user’s manual contains detailed
instructions for using your AT&T Small Business System MS2015 telephone.
Please read this user’s manual before using this telephone.
Getting started

www.telephones.att.com or call 1 (800) 222-3111. In Canada, dial

NOTES:
• You must have modular telephone jacks and an electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch
near where you are installing the phone.
• Assign a different system extension number EXT XX to each system telephone (see the
EXTENSION NUMBER section on page XX). We recommend assigning EXT 11 to an auto-attendant
telephone. Every individual phone in your telephone system MUST be assigned a unique extension
number for the intercom feature to work.
Getting started
Installation
Install the deskset close to a router and a power outlet not controlled by a wall
switch. The telephone can be placed on a flat surface or vertically mounted on
the wall. For optimum range and better reception, place the deskset in a central
and open location.
If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital subscriber line)
through your telephone lines, you must install a DSL filter between each
telephone line cord and telephone wall jack (page 7). The filter prevents noise
and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Please contact your DSL
service provider for more information about DSL filters.
Your product may be shipped with a protective sticker covering the deskset and
handset displays - remove them before use.
For customer service or product information, visit our website at
www.telephones.att.com or call 1 (800) 222-3111. In Canada, dial
1 (866) 288-4268.

• Communication devices such as television sets, VCRs, or other cordless telephones.

refrigerators, or fluorescent lighting.
• Excessive dust sources such as a workshop or garage.

Maintenance
Taking care of your telephone
•
•
•
•
Your telephone base contains sophisticated electronic parts, so you must treat it with care.
Avoid rough treatment.
Place the corded handset down gently.
Save the original packing materials to protect your telephone base if you ever need to ship it.
Avoid water
• You can damage your telephone base if it gets wet. Do not use the corded handset in the rain,
or handle it with wet hands. Do not install the telephone base near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
• Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic equipment. For
your own safety, take caution when using electric appliances during storms.
Cleaning your telephone
• Your telephone base has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for many years.
Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild soap.
• Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when you are wet or
standing in water. If the telephone base should fall into water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL
YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND TELEPHONE LINE CORDS FROM THE WALL. Then pull
the unit out by the unplugged cords.

Important safety information
This symbol is to alert you to important operating or servicing instructions that may
appear in this user’s manual. Always follow basic safety precautions when using this
product to reduce the risk of injury, fire, or electric shock.
Safety information
• Read and understand all instructions in the user’s manual. Observe all markings on
the product.
• Avoid using a telephone during a thunderstorm. There may be a slight chance of electric shock
from lightning.
• Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak. Under certain
circumstances, a spark may be created when the adapter is plugged into the power outlet,
or when the handset is replaced in its cradle. This is a common event associated with
the closing of any electrical circuit. The user should not plug the phone into a power
outlet, and should not put a charged handset into the cradle, if the phone is located in an
environment containing concentrations of flammable or flame-supporting gases, unless there
is adequate ventilation. A spark in such an environment could create a fire or explosion. Such
environments might include: medical use of oxygen without adequate ventilation; industrial
gases (cleaning solvents; gasoline vapors; etc.); a leak of natural gas; etc.
• Do not use this product near water, or when you are wet. For example, do not use it in a wet
basement or shower, or next to a swimming pool, bathtub, kitchen sink, or laundry tub. Do
not use liquids or aerosol sprays for cleaning. If the product comes in contact with any liquid,
unplug any line or power cord immediately. Do not plug the product back in until it has
dried thoroughly.
• Install this product in a protected location where no one can trip over any line or power cords.
Protect cords from damage or abrasion.
• If this product does not operate normally, see the Troubleshooting section on pages 87-93
of this user’s manual. If you cannot solve the problem, or if the product is damaged, refer to
the Limited warranty section on pages 72-73. Do not open this product except as directed
in your user’s manual. Opening the product or reassembling it incorrectly may expose you to
hazardous voltages or other risks.
• Replace backup battery only as described in your user’s manual. Do not burn or puncture
batteries — they contain caustic chemicals.

Important safety information
Especially about cordless telephones
• Electrical power: The telephone base must be connected to a working electrical outlet. The
electrical outlet should not be controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the
handset if the telephone base is unplugged, switched off or if the electrical power
is interrupted.
• Power adapter: The power adapter is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor
mount position. The prongs are not designed to hold the plug in place if it is plugged into a
ceiling, under-the-table or cabinet outlet.
Precautions for users of implanted cardiac pacemakers
Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital cordless telephones):
Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR), an independent research entity, led a multidisciplinary
evaluation of the interference between portable wireless telephones and implanted cardiac
pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, WTR recommends to
physicians that:
Pacemaker patients
•
Should keep wireless telephones at least six inches from the pacemaker.
•
Should NOT place wireless telephones directly over the pacemaker, such as in a breast pocket,
when it is turned ON.
•
Should use the wireless telephone at the ear opposite the pacemaker.
WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from other persons
using wireless telephones.
Especially about telephone answering systems
Two-way recording: This unit does not sound warning beeps to inform the other party that the
call is being recorded. To ensure that you are in compliance with any federal or state regulations
regarding recording a telephone call, you should start the recording process and then inform the
other party that you are recording the conversation.
