INSTALLATION
15
Location
Ensure you situate the telephone close enough to the
power socket so that the cable will reach safely without
stretching. Also, the mains power needs to be easily
accessible in case you need to disconnect the power.
Make sure the telephone is at least 1 metre away from
other electrical products e.g. TV, radio and monitors so
as to avoid interference. Also, avoid direct heat and
sunlight.
We advise you to place the telephone on a table cloth or
similar, as the rubber feet on the base can mark some
surfaces
Handset Range
The telephone has a range of 30-50 metres indoors and
up to 300 metres outdoors. The range will be reduced
when there is no clear line of sight between the base and
handset. Place the base as high as practically possible
to ensure the best signal between the base and the
handset. The icon at the top left of the LCD
display will flash and the signal strength bars will
disappear to warn you if you have moved out of range of
the base. You will need to move closer to the base
station as the telephone line might be disconnected and
the handset will return to standby.
INSTALLATION
