Introduction

Please read the instructions car efully before use and retain this user guide for future reference. This guide covers the basic features of the Diverse 2000 Pocket Phone. For comprehensive instructions see your main Diverse user guide(s) supplied with the base station.

As this product is rechargeable, it is normal that a certain amount of heat will be produced in its day to day operation. Whilst this is entirely safe, we would advise against placing the phone on antique, veneered or wooden surfaces as damage may occur.

Building up a phone system.

You can add further handsets to build up a comprehensive and easy-to-use cordless telephone system. Up to 6 separate handsets (8 with Diverse 2-line and Diverse ISDN) can be used with each Diverse base station; and each handset can itself work from six base stations.

WARNING

1 Use only approved rechargeable

battery packs. Never attempt to use other batteries or conventional batteries. Using such batteries could lead to a short circuit or destroy the battery casing.

Replacement batter y packs are available from the Diverse Helpline on

0345 90 80 70 and your local BT shop.

2 Do not try to use any power supply

except the one provided, other wise you may permanently damage your Diverse. It will also result in non-compliance with EN41003: 1993, and will invalidate the approval given to this apparatus.

3 Do not use non-BT charging stations;

this could damage the batteries.

4 Research has shown that in certain

cases, medical equipment can be affected by cordless telephones. A distance of at least one metre should therefore be obser ved between the telephone and medical equipment.

5 The Diverse 2000 Pocket Phone can also

interfere with other electrical equipment e.g. answering machines, TV and radio sets, clock radio/alarms and computers if placed too close. It is recommended to place your Diverse 2000 Pocket Phone at least one metre away from such appliances to avoid any risk of interference.

6 If you wear a hearing aid, please note

that the Diverse system works by sending radio signals between the base station and handset. These signals can interfere with hearing aids, causing a humming noise.

WARNING cont. 7 There is a slight chance that your phone

could be damaged by an electrical storm. We recommend that you unplug the base station from the mains during storms.

8 Do not use your phone in bathrooms,

near fire or water, or in areas where there is a danger of explosion.

9 Clean the handset with a base station

with a damp (not wet) cloth or antistatic wipe. Never use a dr y cloth as this may cause a static shock.

10 Do not dispose of your batteries in

normal household rubbish and do not place in water or a fire. Please dispose carefully.

11 When scr olling through the handset

lock menu you will see the display (DSS) NUMBER. Under no circumstances should you tr y to amend or store this number as this may stop you from dialling emergency numbers when the handset is locked.

General cleaning

Simply clean the handset and base station with a damp (not wet) cloth or antistatic wipe. Never use a dr y cloth as this may cause a static shock. Never spray cleaning fluid directly onto the telephone.

Approved battery packs

Use only the rechargeable batter y packs from BT Shops and the Diverse Helpline on 0345 90 80 70.

Setting Up

Follow these steps to get your Diverse 2000 Pocket Phone ready for use.

3. Charge the handset battery for at least 16 hours.

Battery display when inserting or replacing a battery

When you replace the handset battery with one that has been fully charged, the battery indicator will not show full until the next charge cycle has been completed. Charge the handset until the battery registers full again. From then on the display will be correct.

Place the handset in the charging unit. Make sure that the contacts on the bottom end of the handset are touching both charging contacts.

When the handset batter y is charging, the green

When the handset has been charging for 16 hours, the Diverse 2000 Pocket Phone is ready for registration.

Use your Pocket Phone without switching it off or char ging it until you hear the batter y warning beep. This makes sure that the batter y pack and handset are correctly adjusted to each other.

CHARGING light comes on.

Getting the most from your battery.

From time to time, run the battery down until you hear the battery warning beep. This helps the battery last longer and give you optimum performance.

Normal battery charging time

After charging your Diverse 2000 Pocket Phone for the first time (16 hours), normal charging time for the handset battery is approximately 7 hours.

Battery performance

Batteries become warm during charging. This is normal and not dangerous. As charging is controlled electronically by the Diverse 2000 Pocket Phone, this means you can replace the handset back on the base station or charger at any time without overcharging.

Under ideal conditions, the handset battery should give approximately 9 hours talktime or 90 hours standby on a single charge.

Please note that the lifespan of rechargeable batteries depends on how heavily they are used. However, over time, their capacity to recharge will begin to diminish and they will eventually need replacing.

Battery low warning

An LCD on the handset display shows the current charging level. When the battery is almost flat a beep sounds and the display shows the empty battery symbol. Displays showing that charging is in progress are listed below:

Battery pack fully charged

Battery pack at 66%

Battery pack at 33%

Battery pack empty

Battery display when inserting or replacing a battery.

When you replace the handset battery with one that has been fully charged in another handset, the battery indicator will only show 33% or 66% power. Charge the handset until the battery registers full charge again. From then on the display will be correct.

You can use up to 6 handsets with the Diverse base station or (8 handsets with the Diverse 2-Line or Diverse ISDN base stations).

Each new handset you purchase must be registered at the base station.

Each handset has a range of up to 300 metres outside in ideal conditions, and up to 50 metres in buildings, depending on the type of construction.
