TIPS FOR USE
As you can see, your Model 8524/8525 and telephone system come equipped with
many features. To help you understand what everything means, it is recommended
that you read the following information before you use your endpoint:
Endpoint Guidelines
• Before you use your endpoint, the battery must be charged. See Battery Packs on
page 7.
• You can only use your endpoint with your facility’s telephone system. It is not a
public cellular phone.
• The button turns the endpoint on and off. The and buttons
begin and end calls. When you finish a call, press the button, not the
button.
• Keep the endpoint away from your ear when it is ringing.
• The microphone is in the telephone’s lower right corner. This is a sensitive micro-
phone that works well when the telephone is correctly positioned on your ear.
There is no need to speak directly into the microphone, but do not cover it with
your hand or cheek when talking on the endpoint.
• The endpoint’s LCD panel displays information about the status of your endpoint
and prompts you about features.
• If the endpoints battery is low, you will hear a soft beep and see the BATT mes-
sage in the display.
• Improper disposal of battery packs can damage the environment. Dispose of bat-
teries properly.
• You can control the endpoint’s volume level and the type of ring. See Setting
Endpoint Preferences on page 46.
• To protect the endpoint, use a carrying case.
NOTE: It is recommended that standard acceptance procedures be followed
prior to operating this equipment in proximity of life-support systems. To mini-
mize risk of interference, pacemaker users SHOULD NOT carry the endpoint
next to the pacemaker. Operation of the endpoint may produce an audible
noise noticeable to hearing aid users. It is recommended that an Inter-Tel
headset be used by a hearing aid user.
