• Choose the best location
• Connect the base phone
• Choose the dialing mode
Choose the best location
Where you place the base phone affects the reception quality of the
cordless handset.
Away from television
sets and other
electronic equipment
Near a central location
and on a level surface
CAUTION: • Should you experience intermittent loss of audio during a conversation, try
moving closer to the base or move base phone away from other noise sources.
• The cordless telephone operates at a frequency that may cause interference to
nearby TVs and VCRs; the base phone should not be placed near or on the top
of a TV or VCR; and, if interference is experienced, moving the cordless
telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the
US

interference.
Getting Started
Away from noise sources such as a window
by a street with heavy traffic
Away from heat sources, such as radiators,
airducts, and sunlight
Away from a microwave
oven
Away from excessive
moisture, extremely low
temperatures, dust,
mechanical vibration, or
shock
Away from a personal

Notes
• Use only the supplied AC-T107 AC power adaptor.
Do not use any other AC power adaptor.
• Connect the AC power adaptor to a continuous power
supply.
• Place the base phone close to the AC outlet so that
you can unplug the AC power adaptor easily.
Tip
If your telephone outlet is not modular, contact your
telephone service company for assistance.
Choose the dialing mode

cordless handset on the charger .
The CHARGE lamp on the
charger lights up when the
cordless handset is properly
seated on the charge terminals

hours so that the battery is fully
charged. The CHARGE lamp
remains lit even after charging
is completed.

Step 3: Preparing the battery pack (continued)
Battery duration
A fully charged battery pack lasts for about:
• Approx. 6 hours when you use the cordless handset continuously
• Approx. 6 days when the cordless handset is in standby mode.
Notes
• The battery pack will gradually discharge over a long period of time, even
when not in use.
• If you leave the battery pack in the cordless handset without charging it, the
battery pack will be completely discharged.
It may require several times of charging to recover to its full capacity.
• While charging, the battery pack warms up. This is not a malfunction.
To obtain the best performance from the battery
Do not place the cordless handset on the charger after each call. The
battery works best if the cordless handset is returned to the charger
after two or three calls. However, do not leave the cordless handset off
the charger for a long period of time as this will completely discharge
the battery pack.
When to purchase a new battery pack
If the battery lasts only a few minutes even after 12 hours of charging,
the usable life of the battery has expired and needs replacement.
Contact your local Sony authorized dealer or service center, and ask
for a Sony BP-T24 rechargeable battery pack.
Note
Battery life may vary depending on usage condition and ambient temperature.

Step 4
Entering the area code
When you use this phone for the first time, or move to an area that has a
different area code, you must enter the area code. Otherwise, you cannot use
some functions of this phone and the Caller ID functions.
This is also necessary because the phone must be able to select an area code to
properly dial a call from the Caller ID list.
Depending on your region, enter the 3-digit area code as follows:
Case 1.
If 7-digit dialing (no area code) is accepted for local calls in your area, see “To enter
your home area code” below.
If you live in an area where calls from or to other local areas can also be made by 10-digit dialing
(area code + number), you can register up to 5 local area codes with this telephone to take
advantage of this system. See “To enter the local area code (For 10 digits phone number users)”
on page 15.
Case 2.
If 10-digit dialing (area code + number) is required for all local calls in your area, see
“To enter the local area code (For 10 digits phone number users)” on page 15.
Entering the area code is only possible on the base phone.

To set up the Long Distance Saver function
Many telephone companies and service providers nowadays offer lowrate long distance calls separate from your standard long distance
provider. Such services are usually initiated by dialing an access
number prior to the long distance call itself.
The Long Distance Saver function enables you to dial the access
number of these special long distance service companies by pressing
just (LONG DIST. SAVER). After setting up the access number and
activating the button function in the menu, you only need to press
(LONG DIST. SAVER) for dialing the access number of your special long
distance carrier.
In order to use this function, you must first activate the button function
by memorizing the access number of your choice in the menu and by
setting the long distance menu function to “ACTIVE”
The long distance menu is preset to “INACTIVE”, no preset access
number is registered.
