Getting started 11

base station in a central

location near the telephone line socket and electricity socket.

Connect the line cord and the power cable to their corresponding connectors at the back of the base station.

Connect the other end of the line cord and power cable to their respective sockets.

The line adaptor may not be attached to the

line cord. In this case, you have to connect

the line adaptor to the line cord first before

plugging the line cord to the line socket.

Warning

Avoid placing the base station too close to

large metal objects such as filing cabinets,

radiators or electrical appliances. This can

impair the range and sound quality.

Buildings with thick internal and external

walls may impair transmission of signals to

and from the base.

Warning

The base station does not have an ON/OFF

switch. Power is applied when the power

adaptor is plugged into the unit and

connected to the electricity socket. The

only way to power down the unit is to

unplug the power adaptor from the

electricity socket. Therefore, ensure that

the electricity socket is easily accessible.

The power adaptor and telephone line cord

have to be connected correctly, as incorrect

connection could damage the unit.

Always use the telephone line cord

supplied with the unit. Otherwise, you

may not get a dial tone.

3.2 Install your phone

Before using the handset, the batteries

have to be installed and fully charged.

Warning

When the batteries are inserted for the

first time, the word INITIAL will be

displayed on the handset. The unit will

not be able to start normally due to the

low battery. Charge your handset for a

few minutes before it can start normally.
