iDECT V2i System

DIGITAL CORDLESS TELEPHONE & ANSWERING MACHINE

Ver. 4, Feb 08 (BTP)

THIS EQUIPMENT IS NOT DESIGNED FOR MAKING EMERGENCY TELEPHONE CALLS WHEN THE POWER FAILS. ALTERNATIVE ARRANGEMENTS SHOULD BE MADE FOR ACCESS TO DIAL EMERGENCY SERVICES.

Before operating this set,

please read these instructions carefully.

iDect_V2i_IFU_master.book Page 1 Thursday, March 27, 2008 2:54 PM

Important note — emergency calls

The iDECT V2i is not designed for making emergency calls if the mains power fails. So you should make alternative arrangements for access to Emergency Services.

(This means that you should also have a basic phone, that does not need mains power, connected to your line so that you can make calls during a power failure.)

If you need help …

The Help Line is available from 9.00 am to 5.00 pm, Monday to Friday, on

0845 345 9677

Calls are charged at Local Call rate.

Unpacking your iDECT V2i system

In the box are:

■ the cordless handset (up to four, depending on which iDECT V2i system you’ve bought)

■ the base unit

■ two batteries and a battery compartment cover

for each handset

■ a telephone line cable for the base unit

■ a mains power lead and adapter for the base

unit

■ up to three charger pods, each with a separate mains power lead and adapter, for multi-handset systems

Keep the packaging materials in a safe place in case you later need to transport the unit. Keep your sales

(till) receipt, which is your guarantee.

Before you can use the handset to make calls you’ll need to fit and fully charge the batteries, as described on pages 7 and 8. Please read the notes on page 4 before you install the base unit.

Connection and conditions for use

You can connect your iDECT V2i to a direct exchange line (DEL) — a line connected to a local exchange, with its own phone number; to an extension socket connected to a DEL; or to an extension on an approved compatible PBX. Do not connect the iDECT V2i as an extension to a payphone.

The ringer equivalence numbers (RENs) of all instruments (phones, fax machines, etc.) connected to an exchange line must not add up to more than 4 — otherwise, one or more of them may not ring and/or answer calls correctly. The iDECT V2i has a REN of 1, and most other telephones have a REN of 1 unless marked otherwise.

Read these notes first

Choosing a site for the base unit and charger pod

Radio signals between handset and base unit

Mains power connection

The base unit and charger pod(s) should be placed on a

level surface, in a position where:

■ the mains adapter plug will reach an easily accessible 230-V AC switched mains supply socket — never try

to lengthen the mains power cable

■ the base unit’s telephone line cable will reach your telephone line socket or extension socket (the charger pod does not have a telephone line connection)

■ it is not close to another telephone — this can cause radio interference

■ it is not close to a sink, bath or shower, or anywhere else where it might get wet

■ it is not close to other electrical equipment — fridges, washing machines, microwave ovens, fluorescent lights TVs etc.

To use your handset and base unit together, you must be able to establish a radio link between them. Be aware that:

■ Any large metal object — like a refrigerator, a mirror or a filing cabinet — between the handset and the base unit may block the radio signal.

■ Other solid structures, like walls, may reduce the signal strength.

IMPORTANT — The iDECT V2i base unit and charger pod must be used with the mains adapter supplied with the unit. Using any other adapter will result in noncompliance with EN60950, and will invalidate any approval given to this apparatus.

Make sure mains power to the base unit stays switched on. The iDECT V2i needs electrical power for normal operation; not just for charging the batteries.

If you have a Broadband line

If you connect your telephone to a line with a broadband connection, you will need to insert a micro-filter between the telephone and the telephone line; otherwise you may

get interference between the telephone and the broadband, which could cause problems.

TELEPHONE WALL

SOCKET

MICROFILTER

In a home with broadband, every telephone must have a micro-filter connected, not just the one at the telephone point that your modem is connected to. If you need more broadband micro-filters, contact your broadband supplier.

7 Charge the batteries for 15 hours

Before you use the handset for the first time, it’s important to charge the batteries fully.

The handset ‘beeps’ when it’s correctly placed on the charging cradle.

Leave the handset on the charging cradle for 15 hours.

Before you start

Electrical safety

Interference If the sound quality gets worse as you move around

‘Out of range’ warning

■ DON’T let the base unit or charger pod get wet. Electrical equipment can cause serious injury if used while you are wet or standing in water.

■ If the base unit or charger pod ever falls into water, DON’T retrieve it until you have unplugged the power lead from the mains and the telephone line plug from the telephone socket (base unit only); then pull it out by the unplugged cables.

■ NEVER use your iDECT V2i outdoors during a thunderstorm — unplug the base unit from the telephone line and the mains socket when there are storms in your area. Damage caused by lightning is not covered by the guarantee.

while on a call, this is probably caused by interference between the handset and the base unit, perhaps because you are too near to another phone or other electrical equipment.

Move to a different position to clear the interference. If you do not move, your call may be cut off.

Radio interference in the environment may occasionally cause a short break in the link between the handset and the base unit while you are on a call. The ‘signal level’ symbol on the handset’s display may flash until the link is restored.

If you hear a warning tone during a call, and/or the sound in the earpiece becomes faint or distorted, you may be going out of range of the base unit. Move nearer to the base unit within 20 seconds, until the tone stops. Otherwise, your call may be cut off.

Caller Display

To receive Caller Display you may need to contact your service provider, who will tell you if there is a charge for it.

Caller Display lets you see the phone numbers of your callers on the handset’s display, before you answer. The iDECT V2i will store the numbers of the last 20 callers (whether or not you answered the call) so you can call them back later. When the Caller Display list is full, the next incoming number will overwrite the oldest one.

If you’ve got new Caller Display records, “X New Call.” is shown on the display, and will only be removed from the standby screen after all new calls have been viewed.

Here are some examples of Caller Display records:

A call from someone whose name (Jenny) and number are stored in your Phonebook.

Press the # button once to see the full number.

Press the # button again to see more details. In this example, the most recent

call came 4:21 pm on 15th April.

A call from someone whose name and number are not stored in your Phonebook.

A call from someone who withheld their number by dialling 141.

A call from someone whose number is unavailable (for example, this may be an international call).

Using a multi-handset system

If you have an iDECT V2i multi-handset system, you already have more than one handset registered to your base unit. You can register additional handsets — up to four per base unit. With two or more handsets, you

can:

■ make intercom calls from one handset to another

■ transfer an outside call from one handset to another

■ toggle between an outside call and an intercom call

■ set up a three-way conference call

Each handset’s number (1 to 4) is shown on its display.

Only one handset can be connected to the outside line at once. If you try to make a call while another handset is already on the line, you’ll hear Busy tone.

Troubleshooting

The iDECT V2i must be serviced by trained engineers. NEVER attempt any repairs or adjustments yourself — you could make the problem worse and invalidate the Guarantee.

ALWAYS check first that:

“I cannot make or answer calls.”

■ you have followed all the steps listed on pages 6 to 8 to install and set up your iDECT V2i

■ all connectors are firmly inserted in their sockets

■ mains power is switched on at the socket

■ the handset’s batteries are correctly and securely

installed, and are not run down

Everyday use

If the handset’s display is blank, it may be switched off. Press the HANG UP f button to switch it back on.

Check that the base unit’s mains power adapter is plugged in and power is switched on. The base unit needs mains power for normal operation of the phone — not just for charging the batteries.

Make sure you’re using the telephone line cable that was supplied with your iDECT V2i. Other telephone line cables might not work.

Move the handset closer to the base unit.

Check the Battery Level symbol on the display. If it’s low, replace the handset on the base unit or charger pod to recharge the batteries.

Switch off the power at the mains socket, wait for a few seconds and then switch on the power again. This may help.

iDect_V2i_IFU_master.book Page 49 Thursday, March 27, 2008 2:54 PM

Troubleshooting

“I cannot make a call.”

“When I press keys, nothing happens.”

“When I key in a number, it appears on the display, but I can’t make an outside call.”

“The phone does not ring”

“There is interference and noise on the line.”

The handset’s keypad may be locked (see page 10). Unlock it before you make a call.

Make sure the batteries are correctly fitted in your handset. If the ‘battery charge level’ symbol on the display shows ‘low’, recharge the batteries.

Try moving the handset closer to the base unit.

Try a different position for the base unit — somewhere higher if possible, or further from other electrical equipment.

If you have more than one registered handset, make sure another handset isn’t already using the line.

Check that the base unit’s mains power adapter is plugged in and power is switched on. The base unit needs mains power for normal operation of the phone — not just for charging the batteries.

Make sure you’re using the telephone line cable that was supplied with your iDECT V2i. Other telephone line cables might not work.

Check that the total REN value of all equipment connected to your telephone line is no more than 4 (see page 3). Disconnect one or more telephones and see whether that helps.

Move the handset closer to the base unit, or to a different position.

Try moving the base unit so that it’s not near other electrical equipment, such as a television or a computer.

You’ll get the best results if you site the base unit as high as possible. For example, in a two-storey house, the first-floor landing is an ideal place for the base unit.

Move the handset closer to the base unit before you try again to make a call.

You may be going out of range of the base unit. Move closer, or your call may be cut off.

Check the ‘battery charge level’ symbol on the display. If it is low, recharge the batteries.

You need to subscribe to the Caller Display feature. Contact your service provider (BT or cable company).

The caller may have withheld their number by dialling

141. Or they may be calling from a network that does not

transmit the Caller ID (for example, it may be an international call).

If you have more than one handset registered to your base unit, make sure that another handset isn’t already using the line.

Make sure you’re holding the earpiece correctly over your ear.

Adjust the volume using the U or D button.

Using a multi-handset system

Make sure the other handset is in range of the base unit.

Make sure you’re dialling the correct number for the other handset (1 to 4).

Troubleshooting

Batteries

“The handset’s batteries are running low within an hour or two.”

Before you first used the handset, you should have left it on the base unit or charger pod for up to 15 hours to charge the batteries fully.

You may need to replace the batteries (see below).

Clean the battery charging contacts on the base unit with a dry cloth.

Check the connections between the base unit and the mains power socket.

“I try to recharge the batteries, but I still get a warning that they are low.”

You need to replace the batteries. To find out how to obtain replacements, call 0845 345 9677, between 9.00 am and 5.00 pm, Monday to Friday.

Dispose of used batteries safely — never burn them, or put them where they could get punctured.

ALWAYS use the batteries supplied with your iDECT V2i — other batteries may burst, causing damage.

PBX use

“The Recall function doesn’t seem to work.”

You may need to change the recall signal length from its default —

Medium

. Consult your PBX documentation for help if necessary. To change the recall setting, see page 44.

iDect_V2i_IFU_master.book Page 52 Thursday, March 27, 2008 2:54 PM

Troubleshooting

“Memory dialling doesn’t work on a PBX.”

When you first make a call, after keying in the outside line access code (e.g. 9), press and hold the #/PAUSE button until a P appears on the display. This inserts a pause between the access code and the telephone number. You should later be able to redial the number.

When storing numbers in memory, you can include the outside line access code (e.g. 9) with each number.

If your PBX requires you to wait for a second Dial tone before dialling the telephone number, press and hold the #/PAUSE button for a pause between the access code and the number.

If the fault persists …

Disconnect all other instruments connected to the same line as the iDECT V2i and see whether you can make a call.

Disconnect the base unit from the telephone line and plug a different phone into the master telephone socket. Try making a call. If this works, the line is OK.

If the call does not work, and you are using a two-way socket adapter, remove it and plug a telephone directly into the socket. If the call now works, the adapter may be faulty.

If you cannot make a call, the fault may be on the exchange line. Contact the service provider (the BT engineers on 151, or your cable company).

If you still cannot identify the cause of the problem, contact the Help Line on 0845 345 9677.
