Location

To obtain the best possible range, we recommend positioning the telephone in a
location central to your sphere of activity. Avoid positioning the telephone in
niches, recesses and b ehind steel doors.
The maximum range between the base station and handset is approximately 50
meters indoors and 300 meters outdoors. Depending on the surrounding
conditions as well as spatial and structural factors, the range may be smaller.
Silent zones can occ ur due to t he digital trans missi on in the fr equenc y rang e used
– even within the r ang e, de pending on the struc tur al env i r onm ent . In thi s cas e th e
transmission quality may be reduced through the incidence of short breaks in
transmission. Normal call quality can be restored if you move slightly out of the
silent zone. If the range is exceeded, the call will be disconnected unless you
move back into range within five seconds.
To avoid radio signal interference from other electronic equipment, we
recommend that the base station and handset are situated at the greatest
possible distance (mi n. 1 meter) from other equipment.

Setting up the telephone

Setting up the base station

 Do not expose the base station to direct sunlight.
 Protect the base station against moisture. Do not position the base station in rooms

exposed to condensation, corrosive steam or excessive dust. Condensation can be present
in basements, garages, conservatories or sheds.

 The ambient temperature must be between 5 °C and 40 °C.
 Avoid positioning the telephone near heat sources such as heating elements or near

obstacles such as metal doors, thick walls, niches and cupboards.

There is no mains switch on the base station. For this reason the socket to which
it is connected must be easy to access.

Listening protection

When you are on the telephone, the base station and handset are connected to
each other over a radio link. The base station handles switching between the
telephone network and the handset. To ensure that no-one can eavesdrop or
telephone at your cost, the base station and handset exchange codes. If the
codes do not match, the connection with third-party handsets cannot be set up.

Setting up the telephone

connector cable and the mains cable.

Safety note

Use only the supplied mains adapter 6 vdc / 300 mA for the base station.

Insert the batteries in the battery compartment. Make sure the polarity is correct.
Insert the bat t er i es s o that the flat end ( neg ative polarity ) of t he battery i s pr ess i ng

Do not insert the handset in the base station without batteries.

Setting up the telephone

Once the new batteries have been inserted, the display on the handset indicates
the actual charging status only after a complete charging cycle.

Note You can replace the handset in the base station after every call. Charging is
electronically controlled to ensure optimal charging of batteries in different
charge states. Avoid removing the batteries from the ha nds e t for no g ood
reason, since this affects the optimum charging cycle.

You can telephone for up to 10 hours with fully charged batteries. The handset
