Location
Place your BT Verve 410 within 2 metres of the mains power sock
et and telephone socket so that the cables will reach.
Your BT Verve 410 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. Make sure it is at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances to avoid interference.
Setting up
1. Plug the mains power adaptor into the socket marked on the underside of the base and plug the other end into the wall socket and switch it on.
Y
ou can place the cable behind the retaining clip to prevent
the plug being accidentally pulled from the socket.
WARNING
Do not place your BT Verve 410 in the bathr
oom or other humid areas.
Handset range
The BT Verve 410 has a range of 300 metr
es 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 indicat when you are in range. If moving out of range of the base, the range indicator will flash. If you go out of range, any call you are on will be lost.
Which power adaptor?
If you have purchased a multiple pack, you should use the power adapt the smallest plug for the base.
IMPORTANT
The base station must be plugged into the mains power sock Do not connect the telephone line until the handset is fully charged. Only use the power and telephone cables supplied with the product.

Battery low warning
If the icon flashes in the handset display you will need t handset before you can use it again. You also hear a low battery warning beep once every 60 seconds. During charging, the icon will scroll in the display.
Battery performance
In ideal conditions, a fully charged batt
ery should give up to 10 hours talk time or 100 hours standby time on a single charge.
Note that new batteries do not reach full capacity until they have been in normal use for several days.
To keep the battery in the best condition, leave the handset off the base for a few hours at a time. Running the battery right down at least once a week will help it 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 Verve 410 Helpline on 0800 218 2182*.
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.
If you experience any problems, please call the Helpline on 0800 218 2182* or email bt.helpdesk@vtecheurope.com

2. The NiMH battery is already fitted in the handset. Remove the battery compartment cover, by sliding it downward and lifting it off.
Locate the battery lead and connector and plug it into the socket inside the battery compartment (the red wire should be on the left). Tuck the battery leads in the space above the battery and slide the battery compartment cover back on.
3. Place the handset on the base to charge for at least 20 hours. When the handset is fully charged the icon will be displayed.
4. When the battery is fully charged, plug one end of the telephone line cord into the socket marked on the rear of the base and the other end into the telephone wall socket.
Note: Battery removal
If you ever need to r
emove the batteries, simply slide open the battery compartment cover, lift the battery and unplug the connector.
Setting up for multiple packs
If you have purchased a BT Verve 410 multiple pack, you will need to prepare any additional handsets and chargers for use.
For each additional handset and charger:
1.
Insert the cable through the channel at the rear of the charger and insert the plug into the power socket. Plug the other end into the mains wall power socket and switch on.
2. The NiMH battery is already fitted in the handset. Remove the battery compartment cover, by sliding it downward and lifting it off.
Locate the battery lead and connector and plug it into the socket inside the battery compartment (the red wire should be on the left). Tuck the battery leads in the space above the battery and slide the battery compartment cover back on.
3. Place the handset on the base to charge for at least 20 hours.
Any additional handsets supplied as part of a multipack are pre-registered to the base so, once charged, are ready for use. The handset number is shown in the display.
