Preparation
Instructions to customer
Installation
Attached to this telephone is an approval label. This label is evidence that it is a
“Permitted Attachment” which has been authorised to be connected to your
telephone service.
Conditions relating to connection and operation of this Permitted Attachment are
contained in Telecommunications General By-Law 220 (5).
You are authorised to install this Permitted Attachment yourself by plugging it into the
line socket of any regular telephone. You may connect it in place of your existing
telephone or to any spare telephone socket installed in your premises.
To disconnect your existing telephone you must first remove its plug from the line
socket. You can then insert the plug of your Permitted Attachment into the socket and
use your equipment.
If the plug of your existing telephone cannot be readily removed, you will have to
remove the screw securing it. To do this proceed as follows:
1
2
3
Loosen screw “A” sufficiently to remove the socket cover. (See Fig. 1.)
Remove screw “B” and withdraw the plug. (See Fig. 2.)
Replace screw “B”. (See Fig. 3.) Ensure that it screws completely into the socket
recess. (If the screw is too long, increase the hole depth or replace the screw with
one 5 mm shorter.)
4
Replace socket cover and tighten screw “A”. (See Fig. 4.)

Preparation
If you are satisfied with the operation of your telephone service after plugging in your
Permitted Attachment, your installation is completed.
You will be unable to connect this Permitted Attachment if your telephone service
consists only of a wall phone or an old style telephone which is not connected by
means of a modern plug and socket. In such cases a new socket will need to be
installed.
Should the Permitted Attachment not operate when plugged into a socket, it is either
faulty or unsuitable for operation with your telephone service. It should be returned to
the store where purchased or to an Authorised Service Centre.
Service difficulties
If at any time a fault occurs on your telephone service carry out the following checks
before you call for service:
L Disconnect the Permitted Attachment and try using the service with the normal
telephone.
L If the telephone service then operates satisfactorily, the fault is in your Permitted
Attachment. Leave the Permitted Attachment disconnected and report the fault to
its supplier or agent to arrange for repair.
L If when using the telephone the service is still faulty, report the fault to “Service
Difficulties and Faults” for attention.
You are required to keep this Permitted Attachment in good working order while it is
connected to your telephone service. Its construction or internal circuit must not be
modified in any way without permission.
Warning:
This cordless telephone system does not incorporate provision for secrecy of
conversations. Appropriately tuned radio equipment and other cordless telephone
systems in close proximity may be used by a third party to monitor and possibly
interrupt conversations in progress when this system is on radio operation.
