Important note — emergency calls
The MD 1600 is not designed for making emergency
calls when 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 Binatone Help Line is available from 9.00 am to
5.00 pm, Monday to Friday, on
01325 304 473
Unpacking your MD 1600
In the box are:
■
the cordless handset (two handsets with a Twin
system, three with a Triple system, four with a Quad
system)
■
the base unit
■
rechargeable batteries or a battery pack, and a
battery compartment cover for the handset
■
a telephone line cable
■
a mains power lead and adapter
If you have an MD 1600 Twin, Triple or Quad system,
you should also have:
■
one, two or three charger pods
■
a mains power lead and adapter for each one
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.

Connection
and conditions
for use
How many
phones can you
connect?
Choosing a site
for the base
unit and
charger pod
You can connect your MD 1600 to a direct exchange
line (DEL) — a line connected to a local exchange, with
its own phone number; to an extension socket con
nected to a DEL; or to an extension on an approved
compatible PBX. Do not connect the MD 1600 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 MD 1600 has a REN of 1
(this is not affected by having more than one handset),
and most other telephones have a REN of 1 unless
marked otherwise.
The base unit and charger pod should each be placed
on a level surface, in a position where:
■
the mains adapter plug will reach an easily accessible
AC switched mains supply socket — never try
230-V
to lengthen the mains power cable
■
the telephone line cable will reach your telephone
line socket or extension socket (base unit only;
charger pods have no connection to the telephone
line)
■
it is not close to another telephone — this can
cause radio interference during calls
■
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, TVs,
fluorescent lights, etc.

Radio signals
between the
handset and
the base unit
Mains power
connections
To use your handset and base unit together, you must
be able to establish a radio link between them. Be
aware that:
Siting the base unit as high as possible will give
■
better results — for example, in a two-storey house,
the best position may be on the first-floor landing.
Any large metal object — like a refrigerator, a mirror
■
or a filing cabinet — between the handset and base
unit may block the radio signal.
Other solid structures, like walls, may reduce the
■
signal strength.
IMPORTANT — please note that:
The MD 1600 base unit must be used with mains
■
adapter, part no. XX002147D, supplied with the
unit.
■
The MD 1600/160 charger pod must be used with
mains adapter, part no. XX002147D, supplied with
the unit.
Using any other adapters will result in non-compliance
with EN60950, and will invalidate any approval given to
this apparatus.

Before you start
Electrical
safety
DO NOT let the base unit get wet. Electrical
◆
equipment can cause serious injury if used while you are
wet or standing in water.
If the base unit ever falls into water, DO NOT retrieve it
◆
until you have unplugged the power lead from the
mains and the telephone line plug from the telephone
socket; then pull it out by the unplugged cables.
NEVER use your MD 1600 outdoors during a thunder
◆
storm — unplug the base unit from the telephone line
and the mains socket when there are storms in your
area. Damage caused by lightning is not covered by the
guarantee.
Interference If the sound quality gets worse as you move around
while on a call, this is probably due to 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 occasionally
cause a short break in the link between the handset and
the base unit while you are on a call. The handset’s
display will flash briefly, while the unit automatically
changes to a different channel to restore the link.
Keeping the
batteries
charged
When you don’t need to carry your handsets around
(for example, at night), leave them on the base unit or
charger pod, to keep the batteries charged.
Whenever the battery charge level symbol on the
display shows ‘nearly empty’, replace the handset on
the base unit or charger pod.

‘Out of range’
warning
Cleaning and
care
If you hear a warning tone as you move around 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.
While you are out of range and you are not on a call,
the handset’s display shows search and the ‘signal
level’ symbol flashes. Before you can make a call, you
must move closer to the base unit until the handset’s
name and number are displayed and the symbol stops
flashing.
(If you don’t want to hear the ‘out of range’ warning
tone, you can turn it off as described on page 21.)
◆ Do not clean any part of your MD 1600 with benzene,
thinner or other solvent chemicals — this may cause
permanent damage which is not covered by the
Guarantee. When necessary, clean it with a damp
cloth.
◆
Keep your MD 1600 away from hot, humid conditions
or strong sunlight, and don’t let it get wet.
◆
Every effort has been made to ensure high standards of
reliability for your MD 1600. However, if something
does go wrong, please do not try to repair it yourself
— consult your supplier or the Binatone Help Line.

For example, to key in jane — press 5 once, press 2 once, press 6 twice
and press 3 twice.
After keying in a character, wait for the cursor (the flashing line) to move to
the next position before you key in the next one.

Caller Display
If you subscribe to this feature from your service
provider, you can see the phone numbers of people
calling you, before you answer. The MD 1600 will store
the numbers of the last 30 calls so that you can call
them back later. Each Caller Display record includes:
The caller’s name, if it’s one you’ve already stored in
■
your phone’s memory.
The caller’s number (up to 20 digits). A caller’s
■
number won’t be displayed if the network they’re
calling from doesn’t support this feature. Also, callers
can withhold their ID by dialling 141 when they
make a call. If the caller’s number wasn’t available, the
display shows a row of dashes.
