Need help?
If you have any problems setting up or using your
BT Glide, contact the Helpline on 0870 605 8047.
Alternatively, you may find the answer in ‘Help’ at
the back of this guide.
Hearing aid user?
Please note that the BT Glide works by sending radio
signals between the base and handset. These signals
may interfere with some hearing aids, causing a
humming noise.

If you have purchased
a BT Glide multiple
pack, you will also
have the following
for each additional
handset:
Do not place your BT Glide in the
bathroom or other humid areas.
Handset range
The BT Glide has a range of
300 metres outdoors when
there is a clear line of sight
between the base and the
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
When you are out of range of
the BT Glide base, you will hear
a warning beep in the earpiece.
IMPORTANT
Do not connect the telephone
line until the handset is fully
charged for 24 hours. The base
must be plugged into the mains
power at all times.
Location
You need to place your BT Glide within 2 metres of
a mains power 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 Glide 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 mains power cable into the socket marked
on the underside of the base. The Power light
comes on.
Power
adaptor
cable
Route the cable through the channel on the base.
Plug the other end of the adaptor into the wall
socket and switch the power on.
If you experience any problems, please call the Helpline on 0870 605 8047
7Getting started
2. Remove the battery guard
tab from the bottom of the
handset.
Battery guard tab
3. Place the handset on the base to charge for at least
24 hours. The charging light comes on. The handset
is pre-registered to the base as
BT Glide
. The screen
shows the standby display.
The charging light stays on while the handset is being
charged. Once fully charged the light will go off.
4. After 24 hours charging, plug one end of the
telephone line cord into the socket marked
on the base and the other end into the telephone
line wall socket.
Only use the telephone line cord supplied.
Telephone
line cord
Battery low warning
The handset battery symbol has
only one red bar left and you
will hear a warning beep every
5 minutes. Start recharging
your handset right away or the
handset will shut down.
Battery low
Battery full
When charging, the battery
symbol is blue and it scrolls.
When you place a handset with
a completely flat battery on to
the base, the charge light will
come on but the handset will
not start. You must wait up to
10 minutes before the battery
has enough charge for the
handset to start.
Battery performance
Running the battery right down
at least once a week will help it
last as long as possible.
On a full charge, your B
handset gives you up to
7 hours talk time or up to
72 hours standby.
The charge capacity of a
rechargeable battery will
reduce with time as it wears
out, giving the handset less
talk/standby time. Eventually it
will need to be replaced.
The battery and handset may
become warm during charging.
This is normal.
T Glide
Route the cable through the channel on the base.
If you experience any problems, please call the Helpline on 0870 605 8047
8Getting started
Battery performance
(continued)
Only use a Li-ion rechargeable
battery pack with a
recommended capacity of

inappropriate battery will
invalidate your guarantee and
may damage the telephone.
Your BT Glide uses the 24-hour
clock.

the wrist strap through the hole on the top left
corner. Then loop the thin cord over the thick strap
