First steps
Headset socket
You can connect various headset types
(with 2.5 mm jack connector), including:
HAMA Plantronics M40, MX100 and
MX150.
You can access a list of headsets that
have been tested for compatibility on
the Internet at
www.plantronics.com/productfinder.
Initial charging and discharging of
batteries
If the handset is activated, the flashing
battery icon e in the top right of the dis-
play indicates that the batteries are being
charged.
During handset operation, the battery
icon indicates the charge status of the bat-
teries (page 1). The correct charge level
can only be displayed if the batteries are
first fully charged and discharged.
¤
To do this, leave the handset in the
base station or charging cradle contin-
uously for seven hours. Your handset
need not be turned on for it to charge.
¤
Afterwards, remove the handset from
the base station and do not put it back
again until the batteries are fully dis-
charged.
Please note:
After the first battery charge and discharge
you may replace your handset in its base sta-
tion after every call.
Please note:
u
Always repeat the charging and dis-
charging procedure if you remove the
batteries from the handset and reinsert
them.
u
The batteries may warm up during
charging. This is not dangerous.
u
After a while the charge capacity of the
batteries will decrease for technical rea-
sons.
