• Freestyle 1025 base unit with answering machine

• Mains power lead with attached 13 amp adaptor plug

• Wall-mounting bracket, 2 screws and wall plugs for wall mounting

If you have problems with your phone, call the

Freestyle 1025 Helpline Service on 0845 769 7146.

Setting up

Follow these steps to get your Freestyle 1025 ready for use

1 Handset aerial

✖

Your Freestyle 1025 uses a compact aerial which does not pull out.

2 Check your telephone socket

Electrical storm warning

During periods of electrical storm, you are

advised to disconnect your apparatus because

damage may occur.

SETTING UP

If you do not have a modern-style telephone socket, call Freefone 0800 800 150 and ask for a BT engineer to come and fit the correct socket.

This is a chargeable service.

If a fault occurs during the 12-month warranty

period and it is due to accidental or wilful damage

(including lightning and electrical damage),

BT will not replace or repair free of charge.

Plug the 3 pin adaptor into the

mains power socket and switch on

The

CHARGING light remains on until the

handset is removed from the base unit.

SETTING UP

Your Freestyle 1025 begins the set-up procedure which takes a few seconds. – The message counter flashes. – The pre-set outgoing message is ready to use. – The answer delay is set to 6 rings. – The answering machine is switched to ON. – The loudspeaker volume is set to level 5

(from a range of 0-H).

– The machine announces the answer delay

setting: “Calls will be answered after 6 rings”.

Mains power adaptor

The Freestyle 1025 must only be used with the

adaptor supplied.

Using any other adaptor will invalidate the approval

given to this apparatus.

Charge the handset battery for at

least 24 hours

When you first use your Freestyle 1025, the rechargeable batteries in the handset need charging for 24 hours.

When fully charged and in good condition,

the handset batteries will provide up to 7 hours

continuous talk time or 72 hours standby.

If the batteries are running low, the

BATT LOW

Battery Care

Batteries cannot be overcharged. However, leaving

the handset on the base unit all the time can deteriorate rechargeable batteries. To get the longest possible life from your batteries, take the handset off

the base for a few hours each day.

Place the handset on the base unit face down, ensuring the contacts are touching.

The

CHARGING light on the base unit comes ON.

After the handset has been charged for 24 hours, your phone is ready for use.

As a rule, placing the handset on the base unit overnight will keep the batteries fully charged for all normal use.

Plug your Freestyle 1025 into the

phone socket

Fully extend the telescopic aerial

on the base unit

For the best reception

Try to avoid putting the telescopic aerial near other

electrical appliances, fluorescent lights and large metallic objects such as cookers, radiators and garage doors as these may cause interference and reduce the

quality of your calls.

To plan the location of the

base unit

Your Freestyle 1025 works by sending and receiving radio signals between the base unit and the handset.

The strength of the signal depends on where you site the base unit and how the aerial is deployed.

The higher the base unit is located, the better. An upstairs room is ideal. The following points should be considered:

• It should be within easy reach of a mains socket and a telephone socket. A new-style telephone socket is needed for this product. If you do not have one, call us on Freefone 0800 800 150.

• Tr y to avoid locations near metallic obstructions or electrical appliances, such as TV sets, fridges, computers, fluorescent lights, radiators, metal pipes and metal window frames.

• The Freestyle 1025 can be wall-mounted by using the bracket and screws supplied; see pages 38-39.

ANSWERING MACHINE

About your Freestyle 1025 answering machine

Your Freestyle 1025 can digitally record up to 14 minutes of messages, with each incoming message lasting a maximum of 3 minutes.

Your Freestyle 1025 answering machine can operate from the base unit and also directly from your handset. When you set up your answering machine, some of the features, such as recording your outgoing message, must be set up via the handset.

The outgoing message is the message a caller first hears when the answer machine picks up their call. The Freestyle 1025 has a pre-recorded outgoing message which is “Hello, your call

cannot be taken at the moment, so please leave your message after the tone”. If you wish, you can

record your own outgoing message to replace the pre-recorded message (see page 15).

NOTE

If you set your 1025 Answer Delay to Time Saver

this means that when you call in from another phone

(remote access), if any messages have been recorded

Technical information

TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Approval for use

Your Freestyle 1025 is tested and approved for connection to public networks, provided it is used in accordance with the guidelines in this user guide.

You may connect it:

• To direct exchange lines.

• To extensions with new plug and socket

arrangements provided with these direct exchange lines.

• To compatible switchboards.

You may NOT connect it:

• To shared service (party) lines.

• As an extension to a payphone.

This phone is designed for UK use only. Using it abroad may violate local radio laws.

The base unit is intended for use when powered from the 9V AC mains adaptor supplied, which conforms to EN60950. Any other usage will invalidate the approval given to this apparatus if, as a result, it ceases to comply with EN60950.

Environment

Your Freestyle 1025 should be kept free of dust, moisture, high temperature and vibration, and should not be exposed to direct sunlight. Do not stand it on carpets or other surfaces which generate fibres, or place it in locations which prevent the free flow of air over its surfaces.

WARNING

The apparatus is only designed to be operated in

a normal office or domestic environment where

the relative humidity does not exceed 60%. It should

not be used in bathrooms or near water.

How many phones can you have?

All items of telephone equipment have a Ringer Equivalence Number (REN), which is used to calculate the number of items which may be connected to any one telephone line. Your Freestyle 1025 has a REN of 1. A total REN of 4 is allowed. If the total REN of 4 is exceeded, the telephones may not ring. With different telephone types there is no guarantee of ringing, even when the REN is less than 4.

Connecting to a switchboard

Your Freestyle 1025 may be connected to compatible switchboards. If in doubt, your switchboard supplier or maintainer should be able to offer help. Advice on connection to BT switching systems can be obtained by dialling BT on 152.

If you do not have a compatible switchboard, it cannot be guaranteed that your Freestyle 1025 will operate correctly under all possible conditions of connection.

Call security

Your Freestyle 1025 has its own digital security code that prevents other cordless phone owners from using your phone line. This ensures that you are charged only for calls using your phone. However, all approved cordless phones use radio signals to communicate between the base unit and cordless handset units. It is therefore possible that your conversations could be overheard by other people, on their cordless phones, or on radios that use the same radio frequencies.

Transmission frequencies of available channels:

Channels Base Unit Tx Handset Tx

Freq./MHz Freq./MHz

1 31.0375 39.9375

2 31.0625 39.9625

3 31.0875 39.9875

4 31.1125 40.0125

5 31.1375 40.0375

6 31.1625 40.0625

As this problem applies equally to all similar cordless phones currently available in the UK, call privacy cannot be guaranteed. However, the security coding prevents unauthorised use of your line.

In the unlikely event of your Freestyle 1025 picking up conversations from other cordless phones being used nearby, tr y changing channels using the

CHANNEL button on the

handset.

Transmission frequencies

This cordless telephone has been designed to operate on radio frequencies which have been assigned to the exclusive use of cordless telephones. As the use of cordless telephones becomes more widespread, the quality of service obtained from this apparatus may lessen.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Safety advice

In the event of a power failure

In the event of a mains power failure you will not be able to make or receive calls from your Freestyle 1025. Alternative arrangements should be made for access to emergency services.

Maintenance

Installing a handset battery pack and recharging

Replacing the handset on the base unit to recharge overnight should keep the Freestyle 1025 operative for normal use. In time, the handset battery pack will no longer hold a sufficient charge and should be replaced.

To change the handset battery pack

MAINTENANCE

• Firmly hold the handset in both hands with the back towards you and the bottom end away from you.

• To remove the batter y compar tment cover, push the depression inward and away from you with both thumbs.

• Undo the plastic belt securing the battery pack.

• Remove the old battery pack by unplugging the small white plug that connects it to the handset.

• Insert the small white plug of the new battery pack. (If you look at the shape of the plug and socket, you will see that it can only be inserted one way).

• Place the battery pack in the recess, secure it with the plastic belt and refit the compartment cover.

• Replace the handset on the base unit and charge for a full 24 hours.

• The battery pack must be recycled or disposed of properly.

Care of rechargeable battery pack

• When you first install the Freestyle 1025, or replace the battery pack, the handset must be fully charged for 24 hours before use.

• To maintain optimum charge and battery condition, the handset should be allowed to fully discharge about every 4 months.

• Dispose of Ni-Cad battery packs safely. Do not puncture or burn them. They contain toxic materials which could cause injury.

General cleaning

Clean the cabinet of the handset and the base with a soft cloth slightly dampened with a mild solution of water and detergent. Charging contacts should be cleaned with a dry cloth, or for heavy soiling a pencil eraser can be used.

• Do not clean with a wet cloth.

• Do not clean with abrasive materials or solvents as these may damage the unit.

• Do not spray aerosol cleaners onto the base or handset.

Extended periods of non-use

It is recommended that you:

• Disconnect the base unit from both mains supply and telephone line.

• Remove the battery pack from the handset.

• When reconnecting, check that the charging light on the base unit is on. Recharge the handset battery for 24 hours.
