in the manufacture of your new telephone. Safety is a major

Use
When using your telephone equipment, the following safety
precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock, and injury to persons.
The 6211 telephone is a single-line set capable of operating
behind any Avaya Business Communications System
(BCS) switch including DEFINITY, MERLIN LEGEND, and
DIMENSION PBXs.

•
•
Read and understand all instructions.
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the telephone.
This telephone can be hazardous if immersed in water. To
avoid the possibility of electric shock, do not use it while you
are wet. If you accidentally drop the telephone into water, do
not retrieve it until you have first unplugged the line cord from
the modular jack. Then, call service personnel to ask about a
replacement.
•
•
•
Avoid using the telephone during electrical storms in your
immediate area. There is a risk of electric shock from lightning.
Urgent calls should be brief. Even though protective measures
may have been installed to limit electrical surges from entering
your business, absolute protection from lightning is impossible.
If you suspect a natural gas leak, report it immediately, but use
a telephone away from the area in question. The telephone’s
electrical contacts could generate a tiny spark. While unlikely, it
is possible that this spark could ignite heavy concentrations of
gas.
Never push objects of any kind into the equipment through
housing slots since they may touch hazardous voltage points or
short out parts that could result in a risk of electric shock.
•
•
Never spill liquid of any kind on the telephone. If liquid is
spilled, however, refer servicing to proper service personnel.

CONNECTION AND USE WITH THE NATIONWIDE
TELEPHONE NETWORK
Note: You may prefer to use an 8-inch line cord rather
than the 14-foot cord provided with the telephone. If you
use the 14-foot cord, you will need to place it into the
back of the telephone in its original coiled position.
The FCC requires that you connect your telephone equipment to
the nationwide telephone network through a modular telephone
outlet or jack. The modular telephone outlet or jack to which the

telephone company. Connection to party lines is subject to state
tariffs. (Contact your state public utility commission or corporation
commission for information.)
INFORMATION FOR THE TELEPHONE COMPANY
Upon request of your local telephone company, you are required
to provide them with the following information: A.) Your phone
number. B.) The telephone equipment’s FCC registration number
and ringer equivalence number (REN). These numbers are on
the back or bottom of your telephone equipment. The REN is
useful to determine how many devices you may connect to your
telephone line and still have them ring when your telephone line
is called. At most, but not all areas, the sum of all REN’s should
be 5 or less. You may want to contact your local telephone
company.

REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
If it is determined that your telephone is malfunctioning, the FCC
requires that it not be used and that it be unplugged from the
modular outlet until the problem is corrected. Repairs can only be
made by the manufacturer or its authorized agents or by others
who may be authorized by the FCC.
7 Slide the reversed base onto the telephone into the
appropriate tabs near the bottom of the set and then slide
it to the right until it snaps into place. See Figure 6.
RIGHT OF THE TELEPHONE COMPANY
If telephone equipment is causing harm to the telephone network,
the telephone company may temporarily discontinue your
telephone service. If possible, they’ll notify you before they
interrupt service. If advance notice isn’t practical, you’ll be notified
as soon as possible. You’ll be given the opportunity to correct the
problem, and you’ll be informed of your right to file a complaint
with the FCC. Your telephone company may make changes in its
facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect
the proper functioning of your Avaya product. If such changes are
planned, you’ll be notified.
