Important note — emergency calls
The iDECT X1 is not designed for making emergency
calls if the mains power fails. So you should make
alternative arrangements for access to Emergency
Services.
(This means that you should also have a basic
phone, that does not need mains power, connected
to your line so that you can make calls during a
power failure.)
If you need help …
The Help Line is available from 9.00 am to 5.00 pm,
Monday to Friday, on
0845 345 9677
Calls are charged at Local Call rate.
Unpacking your iDECT X1 system
In the box are:
■
the cordless handset (up to four, depending on
which iDECT X1 system you’ve bought)
■
the base unit
■
two batteries and a battery compartment
cover for each handset
■
a telephone line cable for the base unit
■
a mains power lead and adapter for the base
unit
■
up to three charger pods, each with a separate
mains power lead and adapter, for multi-handset
systems
Keep the packaging materials in a safe place in
case you later need to transport the unit. Keep
your sales (till) receipt, which is your guarantee.
Before you can use the handset to make calls
you’ll need to fit and fully charge the batteries,
as described on pages 5 and 6. Please read the
notes on page 4 before you install the base unit.

Connection and conditions for use
You can connect your iDECT X1 to a direct exchange line (DEL) — a line
connected to a local exchange, with its own phone number; to an
extension socket connected to a DEL; or to an extension on an approved
compatible PBX. Do not connect the iDECT X1 as an extension to a
payphone.
The ringer equivalence numbers (RENs) of all instruments (phones,
fax machines, 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 iDECT X1 has a REN of 1, and most other
telephones have a REN of 1 unless marked otherwise.

connection
Read these notes first
The base unit and charger pod(s) should be placed on a
level surface, in a position where:
the mains adapter plug will reach an easily accessible
■
230-V
AC switched mains supply socket — never try
to lengthen the mains power cable
the base unit’s telephone line cable will reach your
■
telephone line socket or extension socket (the charger
pod does not have a telephone line connection)
it is not close to another telephone — this can cause
■
radio interference
it is not close to a sink, bath or shower, or anywhere
■
else where it might get wet
it is not close to other electrical equipment — fridges,
■
washing machines, microwave ovens, fluorescent
lights, TVs etc.
To use your handset and base unit together, you must
be able to establish a radio link between them. Be
aware that:
■
Any large metal object — like a refrigerator, a mirror
or a filing cabinet — between the handset and the
base unit may block the radio signal.
■
Other solid structures, like walls, may reduce the
signal strength.
IMPORTANT — The iDECT X1 base unit and charger
pod must be used with the mains adapter supplied with
the unit. Using any other adapter will result in noncompliance with EN60950, and will invalidate any
approval given to this apparatus.
Make sure mains power to the base unit stays switched

on. The iDECT X1 needs electrical power for normal
operation; not just for charging the batteries.

Installation and set-up
Fit two rechargeable batteries in

each handset
A. Insert the batteries in the
compartment, with the end
of each battery facing away
from the cover.
Always use the rechargeable
batteries supplied — never
use any other kind of
batteries in the handset.
B. Carefully close the battery
compartment door,
matching the symbol on
the door to the symbol
on the handset
C. Turn the battery compartment door
anticlockwise (try using a 5p or 1p
coin) so that the symbol on the
door matches the symbol on the
handset
Make sure the battery compartment door is securely
in place. If you have problems fitting the batteries,
contact the Help Line on 0845 345 9677.
Charge the batteries for 15 hours
7
Before you use the handset for the
first time, it’s important to charge the
batteries fully.
The handset ‘beeps’ when it’s correctly
in position on the charging cradle.
Leave the handset on the charging
cradle for 15 hours.
Connect the base unit to the telephone line

Switch off power at the mains socket
Insert the telephone line plug into
the socket as shown
Switch mains power back on
Make sure the mains socket is
switched on if you want to use
the phone — it will not work
without electrical power
NOTE: the charger pod does not have
a connection to the telephone line.

DON’T let the base unit or charger pod get wet.
■
Electrical equipment can cause serious injury if used
while you are wet or standing in water.
If the base unit or charger pod ever falls into water,
■
DON’T retrieve it until you have unplugged the power
lead from the mains and the telephone line plug from
the telephone socket (base unit only); then pull it out by
the unplugged cables.
NEVER use your iDECT X1 outdoors during a thunder

area. Damage caused by lightning is not covered by the
guarantee.
while on a call, this is probably caused by interference
between the handset and the base unit, perhaps
because you are too near to another phone or other
electrical equipment.
Move to a different position to clear the interference.
If you do not move, your call may be cut off.
Radio interference in the environment may occasion

ally cause a short break in the link between the
handset and the base unit while you are on a call.
The ‘signal level’ on symbol handset’s display may
flash until the link is restored.
If you hear a warning tone during a call, and/or the
sound in the earpiece becomes faint or distorted, you
may be going out of range of the base unit. Move
nearer to the base unit within 20 seconds, until the
tone stops. Otherwise, your call may be cut off.
