Location

Place your BT Diverse 7110 within 2 metres of the power
socket 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 Diverse 7110 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 cable into the socket marked on the

underside of the base and plug the other end into the
power wall socket and switch the power on. You can place
the cable behind the retaining clip to prevent the plug being
accidentally pulled from the socket.

The base indicator will light up.

WARNING

Do not place your BT Diverse 7110 in
the bathroom or other humid areas.

Handset range

The BT Diverse 7110 has a range of
up to 300 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 signicantly. With
the base indoors and handset either
indoors or outdoors, the range will
normally be up to 50 metres.
Thick stone walls can severely
affect the range.

Signal strength

The

icon on your handset indicates

when you are in range. If moving
out of range of the base, the range
indicator will ash. If you go out of
range, any call you are on will be lost.

IMPORTANT

The base station must be plugged
into the power socket at all times.
Do not connect the telephone line to
the telephone wall socket until the
handset is fully charged. Only use the
power and telephone cables supplied
with the product.

2. Batteries will come inserted in the battery compartment.

Remove the protective lm from the handset screen and
activate the batteries by pulling the plastic tab away from
the back of the handset.

If you experience any problems, please call the Helpline on Freephone 0800 218 2182* or email [e-mail]

Battery performance

In ideal conditions, a fully charged
battery should give up to 12 hours
talk time or 120 hours standby time
on a single charge.

Note that new batteries do not reach
full capacity until they have been in
normal use for several days.

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
rechargeable batteries are available

,

from the BT Diverse 7110 Helpline
on 0800 218 2182*.

After charging your handset for the
rst time, subsequent charging time
is about 6–8 hours a day depending
on usage. Batteries and handset may
become warm during charging.
This is normal.

Using your BT Diverse 7110 on a
Broadband line?

If this product is to be used on a
broadband line then you must ensure
that it is connected via an ADSL
microlter. Using this product on
a Broadband line without an ADSL
microlter may cause problems with
this product and your Broadband
service.

Additional BT ADSL microlters can
be purchased from www.shop.bt.com
