Caution

The cordless telephone operates at a frequency that may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs; the base unit 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 interference.

Choose the best location

Away from television sets and other electronic equipment

Near a central location and on a level surface

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 computer

Away from another cordless telephone

Connect the base unit

If you want to hang the base unit on the wall, mount the first (see “Mounting the best unit on the wall”).

3Insert the battery pack, and close the lid. 4Place the handset on the base unit.

The CHARGE lamp lights up when the handset is properly seated on the charge terminals of the base unit. Charge the battery pack for more than 12 hours so that the battery is fully charged. The CHARGE lamp remains lit even after charging is completed.

Battery duration

A fully charged battery pack lasts for about:

• approx. 7 hours when you use the handset continuously.

• approx. 7 days when the 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 handset without charging it, the battery pack will be completely discharged. It may require several times of charging to recover to its full capacity.

To obtain the best performance from the battery

Do not place the handset on the base unit after each call. The battery works best if the handset is returned to the base unit after two or three calls. However, do not leave the handset off the base unit 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-T18 rechargeable battery pack.

Note

Battery life may vary depending on usage condition and ambient temperature.

Using “Caller ID with call waiting” service

This telephone is compatible with the “Caller ID with call waiting” service. Make sure that your telephone company offers this service.

Like the basic Caller ID service, you need to subscribe to “Caller ID with call waiting” in order to use this service.

Even though you may have already subscribed to “Caller ID” and “call waiting” as two separate services, you need to request a subscription to “Caller ID with call waiting” as a single service.

This is a new service that combines the two services.

Even though you now have a “Caller ID with call waiting” compatible phone, unless you subscribe to the combined “Caller ID with call waiting” service, you will not be able to see the name and number of the second caller.

When a new call comes in while you are talking, you hear two short beeps. The caller’s name and/or phone number of the new call appears on the display for about 20 seconds.

To switch to another caller

1 To switch to the new caller, press

(FLASH).

2 To switch back to the first caller,

press (FLASH) again.
