LOCATION
Place your Telstra 13150 within 2 metres of the mains power socket and telephone
socket so that the cables will reach.
Make sure it is at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances to avoid
interference. Your Telstra 13150 works by sending radio signals between the base
and handset. The strength of the signal depends on where you locate the base.
Putting it as high as possible ensures the best signal.
The maximum range between the base station and the handset is approximately 300
meters.

IMPORTANT
Check for a dial tone by pressing . If you hear a dial tone, the installation is
successful.
WARNING
Do not place your Telstra 13150 in the bathroom or other humid areas.
IMPORTANT
The base station must be plugged into the mains power socket at all times. Do not
connect the telephone line until the handset is fully charged. Only use the power
adaptor, telephone cables and NiMH batteries supplied with the product.
BATTERY LOw wARNING
If the icon ashes in the handset display you will need to recharge the handset
before you can use it again.
During charging, the icon will appear to be lling in the display.
BATTERY PERfORMANCE
In ideal conditions, the fully charged battery should give up to 10 hours talk time, or
100 hours standby time, on a single charge. Note that a new battery will not reach
full capacity until it has been in normal use for several days.
To keep the batteries in the best condition, leave the handset off the base for a few
hours at a time. Running the battery right down at least once a week will help it last
as long as possible. The charge capacity of the rechargeable battery will reduce with
time as it wears out, giving the handset less talk / standby time.
Eventually it will need to be replaced. A replacement battery can be obtained by
contacting TecHelp on 1300 369 193 or from your local electrical retailer.
After charging your handset for the rst time, subsequent charging time is about 6–8
hours a day. The battery and handset may become warm during charging, however,
this is normal.
