They may cause interference and/or damage to the unit or surroundings. The manufacturer will not be held liable for damage arising from such non-compliance.

10)Do not use third party charging pods. Damage may be caused to the batteries.

Package contents

The package contains the following items:

•1 Handset

•1 Base station

•1 Mains power adapter

•1 Telephone line cord

•2 AAA NiMH rechargeable batteries

•User’s manual

NOTE: If you have purchased a Twin, Triple or Quad system, you will also have the corresponding extra handset(s), batteries and charging pod(s) with attached power adapter.

Connection and Conditions for Use

You can connect your phone to a direct exchange line (DEL) on a local exchange with its own phone number; to an extension socket connected to a DEL; or to an extension on an approved compatible private exchange (PBX). Do not connect as an extension to a pay phone.

The ringer equivalence numbers (REN) of all equipment (phones, fax machines, modems, etc.) connected to an exchange line must not add up to more than 4, otherwise one or more of them may not ring and/ or answer calls correctly. The phone has a REN of 1, and most other telephones have a REN of 1 unless marked otherwise.

Call Blocker Function

The Edge Plus Call Blocker system can be programmed to block certain call types or calling numbers. (See section 8.)

For most of the Call Blocking functions you must subscribe to and receive the Caller Display service from your telephone line provider.

When a blocked call is received, the base and handsets will not ring, and the handset backlights will not turn on. If the answering machine is enabled, it will answer a blocked call after its normal set number of rings and it will record any message left by the caller.

NOTE: Other telephones connected in parallel to the Edge Plus Call Blocker may affect its operation.

6

Handset & Base Connection

1)When purchased, all handsets are already registered to the base unit and should link to it when they are all powered up.

2)To use your cordless handset and base unit together, you must be able to establish a radio link between them. The signal between the handset and the base unit is in accordance with the normal standards for a DECT phone: Maximum range up to 300 metres outdoors or 50 metres indoors. Be aware that:

>Large metal objects, such as refrigerators, mirrors or filing cabinets, between the handset and the base unit may block the radio signal.

>Solid structures, such as walls, may reduce the signal strength.

>Electrical equipment may cause interference and/or affect the range.

3)Do not place the base unit close to another telephone, TV or audio equipment - it may cause interference.

4)Putting the base unit as high as possible ensures the best signal.

5)If the sound in the earpiece becomes faint or distorted during a call, you may be going out of range of the base unit. Move nearer to the base unit within 20 seconds; otherwise the call may be cut off.

7

2 INSTALLING YOUR PHONE

2.1Connecting the Base Station

1) Plug the mains power cable and telephone line cord into their corresponding sockets in the underside of the base station.

2)Plug the power adapter into a 100 - 240VAC, 50 - 60Hz mains power socket, and the telephone line cord into a telephone line socket.

Warning:

Always use the cables provided in the box.

Use only the supplied adaptor, as others may damage the unit.

Note:

Place the base unit within easy reach of the mains power socket. Never try to lengthen the mains power cable.

The base station needs mains power for normal operation, and the cordless handsets will not work without it.

8

2.2InstallingandChargingtheHandsetRechargeableBatteries

1) Slide the cover down off the

battery compartment in the front of the handset.

2) Insert the 2 supplied batteries into the battery compartment, observing the correct polarity Warning:

Use only the supplied NiMH rechargeable batteries.

3) Slide the battery cover back over the battery compartment until it clicks into place.

4)Place the handset on the base and charge for 15 hours

before using the handset for the first time.

•The handset will give a double beep when it is properly placed on the base to indicate charging.

Note: The handset may become warm when the batteries are being charged or during prolonged periods of use. This is normal and does not indicate a fault. For pluggable equipment, the socket-outlet (power adaptor) shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.

If you have a broadband line

If you connect your telephone to a line with a broadband connection, you will need to insert a micro-filter between the telephone and the telephone line; otherwise you may get interference between the telephone and the broadband, which could cause problems.

In a home with broadband, every telephone must have a micro-filter connected, not just the one at the telephone point that your modem is connected to.

Ifyouneedmorebroadbandmicro-filterscontactyourbroadbandsupplier.
