IMPORTANT
Do not place your IT6 in the bathroom or other humid areas.
Location
You need to place your IT6 base within 2 metres of the mains power socket and telephone wall socket so that the cables will reach. The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
Make sure it is at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances to avoid interference. Your IT6 works by sending radio signals between the handset and base. The strength of the signal depends on where you place the base. Putting it as high as possible ensures the best signal.
HANDSET RANGE
The unit has a range of up to 200 metres outdoors when there is a clear line of sight between the base and handset. Any obstruction between the base and handset will reduce the range significantly. With the base indoors and the handset either indoors or outdoors, the range will normally be up to 30 metres. Thick concrete and stone walls can severely affect the range.
SIGNAL STRENGTH
Theicon on your handset indicates that you are within range of the base. When out of range of the base, the
icon disappears. If you are on a call, you will hear a warning beep.
If you are on a call, the line will hang up if the handset moves out of range of the base. Move back within range. The handset will automatically re-connect to the base.
Setting up
IMPORTANT
The base station must be plugged into the mains power at all times. Do not connect the telephone line cord into the wall socket until the handset is fully charged. Use only the power adaptor and telephone line cord supplied with the product.

Charging the handset
3.If you are charging the batteries for the first time, place the handset on the base to charge for at least 24 hours continuously.

8 |
Getting started |
When charging, icon will scroll on the display.
BATTERY PERFORMANCE
In ideal conditions, fully charged batteries should give up to 7 hours talk time or up to 130 hours standby time on a single charge.1
Note that new batteries do not reach their full capacity until they have been put to normal use for several days.
To keep your batteries in the best condition, leave the handset off the base for a few hours at a time.
Running the batteries right down at least once a week will help them last as long as possible.
The charge capacity of the rechargeable battery will reduce with time as it wears out, giving the handset less talk / standby time. Eventually it will need to be replaced, please contact customer service helpline found in this user guide.
After charging your handset for the first time, subsequent charging time is about 6–8 hours a day. Batteries and handset may become warm during charging. This is normal.
1All talk and standby times are approximate and depend on features selected and usage pattern.
