• Connect the base unit

Choose the best location

Where you place the base unit 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

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

moving closer to the base or move base unit away from other noise sources.

• The cordless telephone operates at a frequency that may cause interference to nearby TVs, VCRs, and microwave oven; 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, VCR, or microwave oven will often reduce or eliminate the interference.

Preparing the battery pack

Charge the battery pack for more than 12 hours before you start using your cordless handset.

1 Slide open the battery

compartment lid of the cordless handset.

Hook

Front side

CHARGE lamp

2 Connect the battery connector

with correct polarity (black wire goes on lower side and red wire goes on upper side).

3 Hook the cords and insert the

battery pack. Then close the lid.

4 Place the cordless handset on

the base unit. The CHARGE lamp on the base

unit lights up and “HANDSET 1” appears on the display of the cordless handset when the cordless 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.

Getting Started

About the station number

When you start charging the battery, “HANDSET 1” appears on the display of the cordless handset. This shows the ID number for each cordless handset and base unit of the system, called “station number.” The station number of the base unit is set to 0 and that of the cordless handset (supplied with the base unit) is set to 1 at the factory. The station number of the cordless handset newly added to the system will be one of the number 2 through 4 in the order of registration. (See “Registering additional cordless handsets” on page 23.)

HANDSET 1

Battery duration

A fully charged battery pack lasts for about:

• Approx. 5 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 base unit after each call. The battery works best if the cordless handset is returned to the base unit after two or three calls. However, do not leave the cordless handset off the base unit for a long period of time as this will completely discharge the battery pack.

Note

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