Getting started6

WARNING

Do not place your BT Studio 100 in the bathroom or other humid areas.

Handset range

The handset reception range from the base is up to 300m outdoors and up to 50m indoors, in ideal conditions.

Signal strength

The icon on your handset indicates when you are in range. When it flashes, you are out of range.

When you move out of range of the base, you will hear the out of range tone. This tone is repeated until you move back into range.

IMPORTANT

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

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

Which socket?

Power socket

Telephone line socket

Location

You need to place your BT Studio 100 close enough to a mains power and telephone socket so that the cables will reach.

The strength of the handset signal depends on where you site the base. Make sure it is at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances to avoid interference.

Setting up the base

1. Plug the power adaptor and telephone cable into the back of the base.

2. Plug the power adaptor into the mains wall socket and switch the power on. When connected correctly, the green Power light on the base comes on.

7Getting started

3. Install the 2 x AAA rechargeable batteries supplied. Then slide the battery compartment cover into place.

With batteries installed the display will show:

STUDIO 100 1

The icon will flash while the handset searches for the base.

4. Place the handset in the base to charge, the red charging light comes on and the icon begins scrolling.

Talk/Standby time

In ideal conditions, the handset batteries should give about 10 hours talk time or 100 hours standby on a single charge. The base must remain plugged in to the mains and switched on at all times.

Note that new batteries do not reach full capacity until they have been in normal use for several days.

Battery symbols

– Battery fully charged

– Battery half charged

– Battery low

Battery low warning

If the battery charge becomes low during a call you will hear a warning beep every minute (provided the battery warning tone is set to on, see page 26). If the battery runs out you will be cut off. You will need to recharge the handset before using it again.

During charging, the (battery) icon will scroll in the display.

8 Getting started

Battery performance

To keep your batteries in the best condition, leave the handset off the base for a few hours at a time Running the batteries right down at least once a week will help them last as long as possible.

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 Studio 100 Helpline on 0870 605 8047.

After charging your handset for the first time, subsequent charging time is about 6–8 hours a day. Batteries and handset may become warm during charging. This is normal.

When the handset has linked with the base the idle display will be shown:

STUDIO 100 1

You should charge the handset for at least 16 hours on first charge.

5. Once fully charged, plug the telephone line cord into the telephone wall socket.

Your BT Studio 100 is ready for use.

Caller Display and the calls list 21

If you subscribe to a Caller Display service you can see your caller’s number on your handset’s display (unless it has been withheld) before you answer the call.

Whether you answer a call or not, the caller’s phone number is stored in the calls list.

When you have new entries in the calls list the icon will flash in the display. When all the entries have been viewed, the icon will disappear.

Up to 30 phone numbers can be stored in the calls list. When the calls list is full, a new call replaces the oldest.

Each stored number can be up to 20 digits and each name up to 12 digits long.

IMPORTANT

To use Caller Display you must first subscribe to the service from your network provider. A quarterly fee is payable.

For more information on BT’s Calling Features, call BT on Freefone 0800 800 150.
