3 Getting started

3.1 Connect the base station

1 Place the base station in a central location near the telephone line socket and electricity socket.

2Connect the line cord and the power cable to their corresponding connectors at the bottom of the base station as shown.

!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.

3Connect the other end of the line cord to the telephone line socket and the other end of the power cable to the electricity socket.

Note

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.

3.2 Wall mounting the base

The base is designed to support wall mounting. To wall mount the base, follow the instructions below.

!Warning

Other wall mounting methods are not recommended and may damage the product.

1Remove the bracket from the back of the base station.

12	Getting started

3.3.2Charge battery

!Warning

If the battery level becomes exceedingly low, the phone automatically switches off and any function in progress will not be saved.

1Place the handset on the charging cradle of the base station. A melody is emitted if the handset is placed correctly.

2The battery icon on the display blinks during charge.

3The battery icon becomes steady when the handset is fully

charged.

Note

Optimal battery life is reached after 3 cycles of complete charging (over 15 hours) and discharging, allowing approximately 12 hours of talk-time and 150 hours of stand-by time.

3.4Welcome mode

Note

Depending on your country, the WELCOME screen may not appear. In this case, you are not required to select your country/operator/language settings. In the case when WELCOME appears on the screen before you first use your handset, you need to configure it according to the country of use.

your preferred language and press mSELECT to confirm your

selection.

2Scroll :to your country.

3Press mSELECT to confirm your selection.
