NRX-1 - The telephone for the corporate user

1. INSTALLATION

Connect one end of the coiled cord to the handset and the other end to the socket
at the left of the base unit. Replace the handset to the cradle.
Connect one end of the telephone line cord to the socket at the back of the unit and
connect the other end to the telephone socket at the wall. After connecting the
telephone to the line socket, the handset should be lifted to check dial tone is being
received. If the handset is not lifted, the telephone will take about 15 seconds to power
up during which time any incoming calls will not ring the unit.

2. OPERATION

2.1 Dialing
Lift the handset and dial the number (local call charges may apply). The telephone is
pre-set at tone mode. To terminate a phone call, simply replace the handset.
If you want to terminate a call and make another call immediately, you may press the
NEW CALL key once. The unit will terminate a call and let you dial the number for
another call.
2.2 Tone or Pulse Option
To find out whether you are on a digital exchange that accepts tone dialing, locate
the switch marked TONE / PULSE inside the compartment underneath the unit. First
try dialing out with the switch in the TONE position. If this is unsuccessful, switch back
to the PULSE position.
Note: Pulse (Decadic) dialing is not available on NRX Telephones sold in NZ.
2.3 Mixed Mode dialing (how to switch from pulse to tone in mid – call)
Even if your local exchange only allows pulse dialing, there may still be occasions
when you need tone dialing. For instance, when you call into a bank's computer
system, you may be asked to enter number codes. You can only do this if your
telephone sends out tones when you press the keypad.
The TONE button helps you make change over from pulse to tone dialing in the
middle of a call.
Note: Pulse (Decadic) dialing is not available on NRX Telephones sold in NZ
