BT Freestyle 4100 – Issue 2 – Edition 3 – 12.01.04 – 5853
WARNING
Do not place your BT Freestyle 4100 base in the bathroom or other humid areas.
Handset range
The handset reception range from the base is up to 300m outdoors and up to 50m indoors.
Signal strength
The symbol on your handset screen indicates when you are in range. When you are out of range, it flashes and the screen displays OUT OF RANGE and there is a beep.
IMPORTANT
Do not connect the telephone line until at least one of the handsets is fully charged.
The base station must be plugged into the mains power at all times.
Which socket?
Power socket
Telephone line socket
Location
You need to place your BT Freestyle 4100 base station close enough to a mains power and telephone socket so that the cables will reach.
Make sure it is at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances to avoid interference.
Your BT Freestyle 4100 works by sending radio signals between the handset and base. The strength of the signal depends on where you site the base. Putting it as high as possible ensures the best signal.
Setting up
1. Plug the power adaptors into the base and any chargers that come with your product.
Getting started 7

BT Freestyle 4100 – Issue 2 – Edition 3 – 12.01.04 – 5853
2. Plug the telephone line cord into the base.
(ILLUSTRATION)
Do not connect the other end to the wall socket yet.
3. Plug the power adaptors into the mains wall socket and switch the power on. The green POWER/IN USE light on the base comes on.
4. Install 2 X NiMH AAA batteries supplied into each handset. Then slide the battery compartment cover into place.
Getting started
Talk/Standby time
Under ideal conditions, the handset batteries should give about 12 hours talk time or 120 hours standby on a single charge. (The base must remain plugged into the mains at all times).
Please note that new NiMH batteries do not reach full capacity until they have been run down and recharged a few times.
Battery low warning
When the handset battery symbol is empty and flashing, you will need to recharge the handset battery before using it.

BT Freestyle 4100 – Issue 2 – Edition 3 – 12.01.04 – 5853
Battery performance
To keep your batteries in the best condition, leave the handset off the base for a few hours at a time (after the initial 16 hour charge).
Running the batteries right down at least once a week will help them last as long as possible.
The charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with time as they wear out, giving the handset less talk/standby time. Eventually they will need to be replaced. New batteries are available from the BT Freestyle Helpline on 0870 240 3962.
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.
5. Charge the handsets for at least 16 hours by placing the handset on the base. The red CHARGING light comes on. The handsets are pre-registered to the base.
If you have purchased either the BT Freestyle Twin, Trio or Quad products the additional handsets will come pre-registered to the base.
6. After 16 hours charging, plug the telephone line cord into the wall socket.
Attach the belt clips (optional)

In this case your BT Freestyle 4100 provides you with some explanatory information:

– The caller has withheld their number.
RINGBACK
– Ringback call.

If you subscribe to a Caller Display service, you can see your caller’s number (provided it is not withheld) on your handset display before you answer the call.
When a call is received your caller’s telephone number will be stored in a Calls list. The Calls list holds up to 40 calls. When the Calls list is full, the oldest call will be replaced by a new call, but the latest call will always be at the top of the list. If a caller rings again their number will move to the top of the list.
IMPORTANT
To use Caller Display you must first subscribe to your network provider’s Caller Display service. A quarterly fee is payable.
For more information on BT’s Calling Features, call BT free on 0800 800 150.

Received messages are stored in the Inbox
Your BT Freestyle 4100’s inbox can store up to 40 received text messages. The oldest message is listed as
01. 40 would be the most recent message. The inbox is in the base not the handset.
To send a text message from a mobile to your BT Freestyle 4100
1. Write your message in the normal way, but include the number of the phone you are sending to in the message. The number must be enclosed in #’s. A typical message would be: “Hi there, I’ll see you at the match on Saturday #01234567891#. If the person you are sending to uses a sub address then you should add the 1 digit sub address to the end of the telephone number, e.g. #012345678915# (where 5 is the subaddress).
2. Select
Send
and, when asked for the number to send to, enter 07786201010 (Vodaphone Big Number). All text messages from all mobiles to fixed line phones must be sent to this number, they are then re-directed automatically to the number you have included in the message.
If you send a lot of text messages to fixed line phones you may want to store the Vodaphone Big Number (07786201010) in your mobile’s directory.

All handsets use the same inbox, outbox and drafts folder.

Replying to a message received on a mobile from your BT Freestyle 4100
You can use the Reply option, usually found on most mobile phones, BUT if the text of the received message is automatically deleted when you use this option you will need to include the destination number in your reply, enclosed within #’s exactly as it was in the received message. For example, if the message you received was “Hi there, I’ll see you at the match on Saturday #012345678915#”, and this text doesn’t appear in the reply, your reply would be “OK, I’ll be behind the goal at the river end #012345678915#”.
If the reply option deletes the original text you may find it more convenient to use the ‘Forward’ or ‘Edit’ message option.
1. Select the option you want to use and add your reply to the received message.
2. Select
Send
and enter the Vodaphone Big Number.

CODE OF CONDUCT
How should I behave when I use the Bizzyline SMS Service?
Here are a few guidelines for you to consider when you’re using SMS, which like any Service, can allow strangers to meet and chat anonymously.
Remotely, people may not be who they say they are.
You could be putting yourself at risk if you arrange to meet someone you’ve met through the SMS service. If you do agree to meet someone, never go alone, always meet in a public place. Never go in the other person’s car, and do tell a friend where you’re going and, just as importantly, when you’ll be back.
Don’t give out your name, address, or telephone number or ask anyone else for this information via SMS.
Please don’t intimidate others on the SMS service by sending abusive, menacing or obscene messages – you will be in breach of the Conditions for Bizzyline if you do.
