Important note — emergency calls
The Lifestyle 100 is not designed for making emer
gency calls when 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 Binatone 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 Lifestyle 100 system
In the box are:
■
the cordless handset
■
the base unit
■
three rechargeable 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
■
screws and wall plugs for wall mounting the
base unit and charger pods
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.
You can also buy extra handsets, each with a
charger pods, with a separate mains power lead
and adapter.

Connection and conditions for use
You can connect your Lifestyle 100 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 Lifestyle 100 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 Lifestyle 100 has a REN of 1, and most other
telephones have a REN of 1 unless marked otherwise.

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

base unit may block the radio signal.
■
Other solid structures, like walls, may reduce the
signal strength.
IMPORTANT — The Lifestyle 100 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.

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
handset’s display will flash briefly, while the unit
automatically restores the link.
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.
