Location
WARNING Do not place your Telstra V1600 in the bathroom or other humid areas
You need to place your Telstra V1600 within 2 metres of mains power and telephone sockets so that the cables will reach. Make sure it is at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances to avoid interference.
Handset range The handset reception range from the base is up to 300m outdoors and up to 50m indoors. Thick walls can severely affect the range.
Your Telstra V1600 works by sending radio signals between the handset and base. The strength of the signals depends on where you site the base. Putting it as high as possible can help provide the best signal.
Range indicator
The
symbol on your handset display indicates when you are in range of the base. If the symbol flashes and you hear a warning beep, you are out of range and will need to move closer to the base.
Setting up
1.
Plug the mains power cable into the base. Then plug the power adaptor into the mains wall socket and switch the power on. The power
indicator
on the base lights up.
IMPORTANT Do not connect the telephone line until the handset(s) is fully charged. The base must be plugged into the mains power at all times. Which socket?
Power socket
Telephone line socket

2.
Remove the battery compartment cover and insert the 2 x AAA NiMH batteries supplied into the handset. Slide the battery compartment cover back into place.
3.
Charge the handset for at least 16 hours by placing it on the base. The red Charging indicator on the base comes on. The screen will show the standby display and a scrolling battery icon to show that the handset is charging.
The backlit screen will turn off after approximately 30 sec. Press any key to turn on the screen again.
4.
After16 hours, plug the telephone line cord into your Telstra V1600 base unit and the other end into the wall socket.
Battery low warning When the battery charge is low the handset battery icon will be empty and flashing. Place the handset back on the base to recharge.
Talk/Standby time Under ideal conditions, fully charged handset batteries should give up to 10 hours talk time or 100 hours standby on a single charge. See ‘battery performance’ on the following page.
Page 8
7 Getting started
Battery performance To keep your batteries in the best conditions, leave the handset off the base for a few hours at a time (after the initial 16 hour charge).
Please note however, that new NiMH batteries do not reach full capacity until they have been in normal use for several days.
Running the batteries right down a least once a week will help them last as long as possible.
The charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with time as they wear out, so reducing the talk/standby time of the handset.
Eventually, they will need to be replaced. New batteries can be obtained from your nearest electrical retailer.
Helpline If you have any difficulties setting up your Telstra V1600, please call Product Information on 1300 302 699.
