Choosing a site for the base unit and charger pod

Radio signals between handset and base unit

The base unit and charger pod(s) should be placed on level surface, in a position where:

the mains adapter plug will reach an easily accessible 230-VAC 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, televisions etc.

if the base comes into contact with liquids, disconnect it promptly and use a soft cloth to dry it; if you believe that the liquid has seeped into the unit, do not reconnect the base station. Contact the IDECT Helpline. Follow the same procedure for your handset to remove the internal batteries.

it is away from hot, humid conditions and strong sunlight.

Signal range between the handset and the base station is in accordance with the approved standard for DECT phones:

Maximum range: 300 metres outdoors.

Maximum range: 50 metres indoor.

The signal range could become lower under exceptional conditions, such as: metallic doors, reinforced concrete, radio or electrical interferences, etc.

For stronger radio signal, it is recommended that your telephone is at the highest possible position. If there is no radio signal reception, Base 1 message and the signal

level icon will flash on the display.

iDECT Help Line(for UK only): 0845 345 9677 (Local Call rate)

Interference If the sound quality gets worse as you move around 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, it might cause a short break or your call may be cut off.

"Out of range" warning

Mains power connection

Battery safety ONLY use the rechargeable batteries supplied with the

If you have a Broadband line

If you hear a warning tone during a call, and 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 warning tone stops. Otherwise, your call may be cut off.

IMPORTANT - The iDECT X3 base unit must be used with the mains adapter supplied with the unit. Using any other adapter will result in non-compliance with EN60950, and will invalidate any approval given to this apparatus.

handset. DO NOT use non-rechargeable batteries - they may burst and cause damage to your telephone.

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.

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.

Installation and Set-up

1 Choose a suitable site

for the base unit (see page 3).

2 Connect the mains

power lead and the telephone line cord into the base unit.

Plug one end of the telephone line cord into the socket on the back of the base.

Make sure that the 230VAC, 50hz mains socket is switched OFF when you plug the mains adapter into the socket. Switch it ON only when you have the adaptor plugged in safely.

The other phones that have an individual and different terminal number, ranging between 1 and 8, will also be able to send and receive SMS messages properly.

Note: Different terminals using the same telephone line should each be assigned a unique terminal number different from the other phones.

Troubleshooting

ALWAYS check first that:

You have followed all the steps listed on page 5 to install and set up your iDECT X3.

All connectors are firmly inserted in their sockets.

Mains power to the base unit is switched on at the socket.

The handset's batteries are correctly and securely installed and are not run down.

Everyday use

"The handset does not switch on."

"The handset switches on but cannot be connected to the base station."

"I cannot make or answer calls."

Check the connection of the batteries as they are probably flat or not inserted properly and charge the handset on the base station.

Check the connection of the power supply unit of the base unit.

Verify that the network socket where the power supply unit is plugged in received voltage.

Repeat the handset registration procedure as described on page 24.

If the handset's display is blank. It may be switched off. Press the HANG UP button for five seconds 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 are using the telephone line cable supplied with your iDECT X3. 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 is low, replace the handset on the base unit or charger pod to recharge the batteries.

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

"I cannot make a call."

"When I press keys, nothing happens."

The handset's keypad may be locked. Unlock it before you make a call.

Only one handset (or the base unit) can be connected to the outside line at once. If another handset is already using the line, you need to wait until it's finished its call.

Make sure the batteries are fitted in your handset. If the Battery Level symbol on the display shows 'low', put your handset back on the cradle for it to charge.

"When I key in a number, it appears on the display, but I can not make an outside call."

"The phone does not ring."

"My call was cut off when I went out of range. Now I can't use my handset."

"There is interference and noise on the line."

"I hear 'beeps' from my handset while I'm on a call."

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

Try moving the handset closer to the base unit.

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 are using the telephone line cable that was supplied with your iDECT X3. Other telephone line cables might not work.

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

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 sound if you place the base unit as high as possible. For example, in a two-storey house, the first-floor landing is an ideal place.

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

Check the Battery Level symbol on the display. If it's low, recharge the batteries.

iDECT Help Line(for UK only): 0845 345 9677 (Local Call rate)

"The Caller Display feature isn't working."

"When I try to make a call, I hear Busy tone."

You need to subscribe to the Caller Display feature from your network service provider. You should find contact details on your phone bill.

The caller may have withheld their number by dialling

141. Or they may be calling from a network that does not transmit the caller's number (e.g. it may be an international call.)

If you're using a iDECT X3 multi-handset system, check another handsets whether or not they are already on a call.

"The volume in the earpiece is low when I'm on a call."

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

Adjust the volume using the UP /DOWN button.

Intercom and transfer

"I can't transfer a call."

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

Make sure you are dialling the correct number for the other handset.

Batteries

"The handset is not functioning even after charging for 8 hours."

"The handset's battery pack is running low within an hour or two."

Remove the batteries from the handset and wait for a few seconds before replacing them. If the problem persists, replace the batteries.

Before you first use the handset, you should have left it on the base unit or charger pod for 24 hours to charge the batteries fully.

You may need to replace the batteries.

Check the connection 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 the iDECT Helpline on 0845 345 9677 from 9:00am to 5:00pm, Monday to Friday (UK only).

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

Do not use non-rechargeable batteries in your iDECT X3 they may burst, causing damage.

If the fault persists...

Disconnect all other instruments connected to the same line as the iDECT X3 and try to make a call.

Disconnect the base unit from the telephone line and plug a different hone 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 for UK only, or your cable company).

If you still cannot identify the cause of the problem, contact the iDECT Helpline on 0845 345 9677 (UK only).
