TL96271/TL96371/TL96471
DECT 6.0 cordless telephone/
answering system with
BLUETOOTH® wireless technology
Installation
You must install and charge
the handset battery before
using the handset.
See page 4 for easy
instructions.
Install the telephone base close to a telephone jack and a power outlet not
controlled by a wall switch. The telephone base should be placed on a flat
surface. For optimum range and better reception, place the telephone base in
a central and open location.
You may hear interference if your cellular phone is too close to the
telephone base during a CELLULAR call. Make sure that your Bluetooth
enabled cellular phone is within 15 feet of the telephone base in order to
maintain a clear and consistent connection between your Bluetooth cell
phone, telephone base and cell tower.
If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital subscriber line)
through your telephone line(s), you must install a DSL filter between each
telephone line cord and telephone wall jack (page 2). The filter prevents
noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Please contact your
DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters.
Your product may be shipped with a protective sticker covering the handset
or telephone base display - remove it before use.
