Do not place your phone in the bathroom or other damp areas.
Location
When choosing a location for your new phone, use the following
guidelines:
Avoid sources of noise and heat, such as motors, fluorescent lighting,
microwave ovens, heating appliances and direct sunlight.
Avoid areas with excessive dust, moisture and low temperatures.
Avoid other cordless telephones or personal computers.
Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is
specifically designed for wet locations.
Never touch non-insulated telephone wires, unless the telephone line
has been disconnected at the network interface.
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
HANDSET RANGE
The handset reaches optimal range when there are no other electrical
appliances working within the range area. Any obstruction between the
base and handset will reduce the range significantly.
SIGNAL STRENGTH
When out of range of the corded base, the screen shows “OUT OF
RANGE.” If you are on a call, the line will hang up. To re-connect to the
corded base automatically, move back within in range.
Setting up
IMPORTANT
The base must be plugged into an electrical outlet at all times. Do not
connect the telephone line cord into the telephone wall jack until the
handset is fully charged. Only use the adapter and telephone line cord
supplied with the product.
WHICH POWER ADAPTER?
The power adapter with the smaller pin matches the base unit and the
power adapter with the larger pin matches the charger unit (only for
multi-handset packs).

Package Content for single model
The package contains the following items:
1 Handset
1 Base Station
1 Power Adapter for the Base Station
1 Telephone Line Cord
1 AAA NiMH Rechargeable Pack
1 Back Cover
1 User Guide
Handset & Base Connection
1) After purchase, all handsets are already registered to the base unit
and should link to it when they are all fully charged.
2) To use your cordless handset and base unit together, you must be
close enough to establish a radio link between them. The signal
between the handset and the base unit is in accordance with the
normal standards for a DECT phone: Maximum range of roughly
980 feet outdoors or roughly 165 feet indoors. Be aware that:
> Large metal objects, such as refrigerators, mirrors or filing
cabinets, between the handset and the base unit may block the
radio signal.
> Solid structures, such as walls, may reduce the signal strength.
> Electrical equipment may cause interference and/or affect the
range.
3) Do not place the base unit close to another telephone, TV or audio
equipment. It may cause interference.
4) Putting the base unit as high as possible ensures the best signal.
5) If the sound in the earpiece becomes faint or distorted during a call,
you may be going out of range of the base unit. Move nearer to
the base unit within 20 seconds; otherwise the line may be cut off.

2.1 Connecting the Base Station
1) Plug the power cable and telephone
power socket
line cord into the base station.
2) Plug the power adapter into a
120Vac, 60Hz power socket, and the
telephone line cord into a telephone
line socket.
Warning:
Always use the cables provided in the box.
Use only the supplied adaptor. Using other power cables may damage
the unit.
Note:
Place the base unit within easy reach of the power socket. Never try to
lengthen the power cable.
The base station needs power for normal operation, and the cordless
handsets will not function unless the base station is plugged in.
2.2 Installing and Charging the Rechargeable Batteries
1) Insert the 2 supplied batteries into the
battery compartment, aligning the
batteries with the markings inside
battery compartment.
Warning: Use only the supplied NiMH
rechargeable batteries.
2) Place the back cover over the back of
the handset and press down until it
clicks into place.
3) Place the handset on the base and
charge for 15 hours before using it for
the first time.
•
The handset will give a double beep when it is properly placed on
the base or charging pod.
•
The battery charging indicator on the base or charging pod will
light up to when charging.
Note: The handset may become warm when the batteries are being
charged or during prolonged periods of use. This is normal and does not
indicate a fault.

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.
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.
