Setting up

Follow these simple steps to prepare your

phone for use.

Finding a location

• The location should be close to both a phone

jack and a continuous power outlet (one which

is not connected to a switch).

• The base and handset should be kept away

from sources of electrical noise such as motors,

microwave ovens, and fluorescent lighting.

• For better reception, place the base as high as

possible.

• The base should be placed in an open area for

optimum range and reception.

• If your home has wired alarm equipment

connected to a phone line, be sure that

installing the system does not disable your

alarm equipment. If you have questions about

what will disable alarm equipment, contact your

telephone company or a qualified installer.

Connecting your phone

1 Connect the base power supply to the back

of the base. Plug the other end into the wall

electrical outlet.

WARNING

Use only the power supply that came with your

phone.

Using another power supply could seriously

damage your phone and invalidate your

warranty.

Do not connect the telephone line cord until

your handset is fully charged. This will prevent

the risk of the phone being answered before

the battery pack is charged. Answering the

phone before the battery pack is fully charged

may prevent them from reaching their optimum

capacity.

2 If you have purchased a model containing

multiple handsets and chargers, connect each

charger's power supply to the charger base and

plug into a wall electrical outlet.

Preparing the handsets

Installing and charging the handset battery pack

1 On each handset:

Remove the battery compartment cover.

Press down on the semi-circle indent and slide

the cover off.

Connect the supplied battery pack with the

correct polarity.

Slide the battery cover back until it clicks

securely into place.

2 To charge the battery, place the handset(s) on

the base or on a charger. The charging light in

the base illuminates. While charging, the symbol

scrolls and when the handset is fully

charged, all the bars of the battery symbol will

be filled when the phone is off the cradle.

If the charging light does not come on, reposition

the handset in the base or charger, ensuring that

the charging points contact. You must charge

each handset for 15-20 hours before use.

NOTE: Once your handset is fully charged, your

phone is designed for the base charge

LED to turn off for approximately 4

seconds during the following instances:

1) just after reaching a full charge

2) 1 minute after reaching a full charge

3) every 5 minutes after reaching a full charge

To alleviate the charge LED from blinking on the

base, you can simply remove the handset from the

charging cradle.

You may also select to leave the handset in the

cradle, which will not damage the unit. Once fully

charged, you may notice the charge LED light

will turn for 4 seconds every 5 minutes. This is

normal operation and does not mean your unit is

defective.

BATTERY LOW WARNING

If the symbol is displayed on the handset,

CHARGE BATTERY appears and you hear the

low battery tone, you will need to recharge your

handset.

For optimum performance, be sure to return

the handset to the cradle after each call. If the

handset is left off of the base, the actual talk

time duration will be reduced respective to the

amount of time the handset is off the cradle.

Battery Performance

The handset may become warm during charging,

this is normal. On a single charge your handset

will give 16 hours talk time and 7 days standby

time.

Over time, as the batteries wear out, the charge

capacity will reduce, therefore, reducing the talk/

standby time of the handset.

Eventually the battery pack will need to be

replaced.

Setting the date and time

The phone uses the 24 hour clock.

In standby:

1 Press .

2 Press or until Time & Alarm is

displayed and press .

3 Press or until Set Date&Time is

displayed and press .

4 Enter Day, Month, and Year using the keypad,

e.g. 030605 for 3rd June 2005, and

press .

5 Enter Hour and Minute using the keypad, and

press .

6 Press to return to standby.

Connecting the telephone line cord

1 Connect the telephone line cord into the TEL

LINE jack on the back of the base.

Plug the other end into the telephone outlet.

Setting up your phone is complete.

Now you can make and receive calls.
