Getting started

Location

You need to place your BT Freestyle 350 within 2 metres of the mains 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 Freestyle 350 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.Push the mains power cable into the socket on the underside of the base and plug the other end of the adaptor into the mains power wall socket and switch the power on.

WARNING

Do not place your BT Freestyle 350 in the bathroom or other humid areas.

Handset range

The BT Freestyle 350 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 significantly. 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 of the base.

If you begin to move out of range, the icon will flash and the handset will beep.

IMPORTANT

Do not connect the telephone line until the handset is fully charged.

Only use the power and telephone cables supplied with the product.

The base station must be plugged into the mains power socket at all times.

Setting up for multiple packs

If you have purchased a BT Freestyle 350 multiple pack, you will also need to follow the instructions shown below to prepare any additional handsets and chargers for use.

For each additional handset and charger:

1.Connect the power adaptor to the charger and switch on at the mains socket.

2.Batteries will come inserted in the battery compartment. Pull the plastic tag as instructed to activate the batteries and charge for at least 16 hours.

Your BT Freestyle 350 additional handset comes pre-registered to the base. The handset number will be shown on the display.

Battery performance (continued)

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 350 Helpdesk on 0870 240 3962. For instructions on how to install new batteries, see page 70.
