s.QUAD Voice
1. Introduction
Congratulations on your new Swiss-
phone receiver! When you purchased
the new s.QUAD, you chose a top-
range device. The s.QUAD delights
with its optimum combination of
user-friendly design, high carrying
comfort and top quality. It offers easy
operation via four buttons and a
graphical display.
The s.QUAD can be custom config-
ured. For this reason, some of the
functions described in this brief op-
erating manual may be missing on your device.
This brief operating manual provides important information that
will help you get the most out of your device. Always keep this
manual ready to hand.
We wish you success in using the s.QUAD.

2. Getting started

Insert power source
The s.QUAD works with either a dry cell battery or a rechargeable
battery. Insert the power source into the s.QUAD, making sure that
you observe correct polarity. The s.QUAD will turn on automa-
tically. A functional test is then performed. After the test, please
specify whether you have inserted a dry cell battery or a recharge-
able battery. The device is now ready for operation.
Further information on the power supply can be found in the chap-
ter 'Charging the battery/power supply'.
Turn on
To manually turn on the s.QUAD, you must press and hold one of
the four buttons until the start screen or start text appears on the
display. The home screen is visible after a few seconds and the
s.QUAD is ready for operation.

5. Processing alerts/messages
Receive and read new messages
When your s.QUAD receives a message, an alert occurs through
sound, vibration and illumination of the OK button, followed by the
voice announcement. By pressing the OK button, you can stop the
alert. The header (timestamp) shows the message date, message
time and address name. If you now press the BACK navigation
button, the header is displayed in full. A predefined 'Fixtext' may
be displayed with each alert. In case a Hybrid-Alert including text
was received, the message-text follows the fixtext. The down-
ward-pointing arrow indicates that there is more text.
You can use the OK button or the FORWARD navigation button to
scroll to the end of the message.
The message is marked as read as soon as you reach the end.
Listen to announcement again
To listen to the announcement again, you simply need to press the
OK button from the home screen. Playback of the announcement
will begin automatically. Announcements can also be played di-
rectly from the message inbox, depending on the configuration.
Message storage
The messages are stored in the message inbox or in the
appropriate folder. They are stored chronologically in a list.
Unread or protected messages are marked in the list. Unread
messages are also indicated in the home screen.
