Safety information

General

Only use the power supply included with the product. Using an unauthorised power supply will invalidate your guarantee and may damage the telephone. The item number for the mains power supply is 872101.

If Keyguard is active, it is still possible to make emergency calls to 999 and 112.

Do not open the handset or base station. This could expose you to high voltages or other risks. Contact the Helpline for all repairs.

Radio signals transmitted between the handset and base may cause interference to hearing aids.

It is recommended that advice from a qualified expert be sought before using this product in the vicinity of emergency/ intensive care medical equipment.

It is recommended that if you have a pacemaker fitted you check with a medical expert before using this product.

Never dispose of batteries in a fire. There is a serious risk of explosion and/or the release of highly toxic chemicals.

Cleaning

Simply clean the handset and base station with a damp

(not wet) cloth, or an anti-static wipe. Never use household polish as this will damage the product.Never use a dry cloth as this may cause a static shock.

Environmental

Do not expose to direct sunlight. The product may heat up when the batteries are being

recharged. This is normal. However, we recommend that you do not place the product on antique/veneered wood to avoid damage.

Do not stand your product on carpets or other surfaces which generate fibres, or place it in locations preventing free flow of air over it’s surfaces.

Do not submerge any part of your product in water and do not use it in damp or humid conditions, such as in bathrooms.

Do not expose your product to fire, explosive or other hazardous conditions.

There is a slight chance that your phone could be damaged by an electrical storm. We recommend that you unplug the power and telephone line cord for the duration of the storm.

Setting up

Please note that your handset is already registered to the base station.

Situate your product close enough to the telephone and mains power sockets so that the cables will reach.

Make sure it is at least 1 metre away from other electrical products to avoid interference.

Do not situate the product in the bathroom or other humid areas.

Once connected, put the plinth back on the base to prevent it from rocking on the table.

There are two positions for the plinth when joining it to the base, both can be used for desk mounting and one for wall mounting. Position A is for desk mounting only and position B is for desk or wall mounting (see wall mounting on page 31).

Rubber feet

Hold the black plastic square between thumb and forefinger and peel off individual feet from backing sheet as shown. These are to stop your base from moving and to protect your work surface.

If you decide on position B, place 2 of the rubber feet on the plinth and 2 on the base.

Plug the power adaptor into the wall socket and switch on. When the power is switched on, the button on your base will light up.

Plan the location

1 Connect the power supply and

switch on.

Thread the power supply cable and line cord through the square hole in the plinth before fixing to the base.

Plug the power supply cable into the socket on the underside of your base. The power cable connector and socket are coloured red.

WARNING

Please take care that the power supply and telephone line cord are connected to the correct sockets as incorrect placement could damage your equipment.

WARNING

Do not connect the telephone line cord to the phone socket until your handset is fully charged. This will prevent the risk of the phone being answered before the battery is charged. Answering the phone before the battery is fully charged may prevent it from reaching its optimum capacity.

WARNING

Under no circumstances should non-rechargeable batteries be used. Only use the approved batteries. Using unapproved batteries will invalidate your guarantee and may damage the telephone.

Fully discharging the batteries at least once a week will help them to last as long as possible. However, the charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with time as they wear out, so reducing the talk/standby time of the handset. Eventually they will need to be replaced. New batteries can be obtained from the Helpline on 0870 240 4682.

When the battery has been charged for at least 16 hours the display will show the symbol;

you can then connect the telephone line cord to the base.

Generally this telephone may be connected to switchboards which support tone signalling and timed break recall. In the event of any difficulties please consult your switchboard service provider.

Note

For the external line access code to be dialled for external calls only, it is important that all external numbers stored in your handset directory contain more digits than the number of digits required to make an internal call to other extensions on your switchboard. This is most likely to occur when you have local external numbers stored in the handset directory without the area code. To overcome potential problems ensure that all numbers are stored complete with area code.
