Troubleshooting

Most problems are caused by something very simple and can be ﬁxed with a few simple checks:

• Make sure both the mains power adaptor cable and telephone line cord are plugged into the correct sockets and plugged in at the wall.

• Make sure you use all the cables and battery pack that came in the box, not those from a previous product.

• If you experience poor speech quality or interference, make sure the product is not located too close to other electrical appliances. This can also help improve the handset range from the base.

• Make sure you charge the battery pack for at least 24 hours before ﬁrst use to ensure maximum battery performance. The charge capacity of the batteries will decrease over time.

Remember to plug the phone into the wall socket via an ADSL microﬁlter if you have broadband Internet on your phone line, otherwise you may have problems with this product and your broadband service. Additional BT ADSL microﬁlters can be purchased from www.shop.bt.com
