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.

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.

Do you have two text phone bases

If you have two text phone base
s

likely to experience problems receiving
text messages. Normally, only one SMS
enabled base unit (DECT or cordless)
can be plugged into any line.
If you do want to use two base units
and still receive written text you must
delete receive service centre number
from one of the base stations. To do
this on your BT Verve 410, see page
50. This will allow you to send text via
either base station but texts will only
be received on the product with the
active receive centre number.
If the base unit with the active receive
centre number is a DECT product then
all handsets registered to will be able
