precautions when using your telephone:

• This appliance is intended for indoor use only.

• Observe all markings on the product.

• Do not expose your telephone to moisture and avoid contact with liquids.

• To prevent electric shock, do not disassemble the handset or the telephone base.

• Avoid interposing any metal objects (clip, key, etc.) between the battery contacts and charging

contacts.

• Your telephone may have a slight chance of being damaged by lightning. Unplug the telephone
base from the mains and disconnect the telephone line during a thunderstorm.

• Do not use the telephone in the vicinity of a gas leak.

• Do not use the handset near any intensive care medical equipment. People with pacemakers

should consult their doctor or cardiologist before using this telephone.

• Clean your telephone with a dry, soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use any cleaning agents or solvents,
especially aggressive ones.

• Exchanges between the telephone base and handset being carried out by radio signals, wearers
of hearing aids may be bothered by a small buzz.

• Your telephone may interfere with other electrical appliances such as answering machine,
television, radio, clock radio or computer when it is sufficiently close to such equipment. To avoid
this, place the telephone base at least one meter away from other electrical appliances.

• We do not guarantee privacy of communications through your telephone.

• The receiver of the handset may attract small metal objects (staples, pins, etc). Be careful when

placing the handset near these items.

• Your telephone does not work in case of power failure and by consequence cannot be used for
emergency calls. To avoid such inconvenience, always keep a traditional corded telephone in
your home.

• To prevent electric shock, do not use your telephone during a thunderstorm. Refer to the
information printed on your telephone directory.

• You can connect this product to a PSTN telephone line or an analog PBX extension port.
Warning: Connecting this telephone to a digital PBX extension port may cause damage.

• Install your telephone close to an easily accessible electrical outlet.

• Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this may cause a fire or electric shock.

• To eliminate any voltage within the telephone, unplug the power cord from the mains.

• If the telephone will not be used for a long period of time, unplug the adapter to save power.

• If the power cord of the adapter is damaged, do not try to replace or repair it. Discard the adapter.

• Observe the polarity indicated while installing the batteries.

• It is dangerous to use other battery types or non-rechargeable batteries: they can cause

interference and/or damage to the product. The manufacturer shall not be liable for any damages
caused by such non-compliance.

• Do not use a charger other than the one supplied with the telephone; otherwise the batteries can
be damaged.

• Do not immerse a battery in water and do not throw it in a fire.

• The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.

CAUTION

Only use the telephone base with the supplied power adapter.
Failure to observe the correct polarity or voltage of the adapter may cause damage to the
telephone base.

• This appliance is intended for indoor use only.

Installing the telephone base

Given the length of the cables, you must install the telephone base within two meters of an
electrical outlet and a telephone wall jack. The telephone base should also be placed at least one
meter away from other electrical appliances in order to avoid interference. The handset exchanges
radio signals with the telephone base. The strength of these signals depends on the position of the
base. You may obtain a stronger signal by placing the base higher.

Operating range of the handset

The operating range of your telephone is 300 meters outdoors without obstructions between
the telephone base and handset. Obstructions reduce the operating range. When the
telephone base is located indoors, no matter whether the handset is indoors or outdoors, the
operating range is reduced to 50 meters. Thick concrete walls reduce the operating range
significantly.

Signal strength

When the handset is within the operating range of the telephone base, the icon appears on the

screen. When the handset is out of range, flashes, SEARCH and then OUT OF RANGE
appear on the screen. In this case, get closer to the telephone base.

Installing and charging the batteries

1. Insert the connector of the supplied adapter into the adapter jack on the back of the telephone
base and then plug it into an electrical outlet.

2. Plug the telephone line cord into the telephone line jack on the back of the telephone base and
then connect it to a telephone wall jack.

Note: The extension model does not have telephone line jack. You should register the handset
to another DECT telephone. (MENU ADVANCED SET REGISTER)

3. Insert the rechargeable Ni-MH batteries supplied into the handset by following the indicated
polarity. Close the battery compartment.

4. Place the handset on the telephone base and let the batteries charge for 24 hours before using
it for the first time.

Low battery warning

The icon prompts you to recharge the batteries before continuing to use the telephone.
During charging, the battery indicator flashes on the handset screen.

Battery performance

When fully charged, the batteries offer approximately 10 hours of talk time and 100 hours of
standby time under ideal conditions. Please note that new batteries reach their full capacity after
several days of normal use.

The battery capacity decreases over time, reducing the talk time and standby time. Replace the
batteries if necessary.
The batteries and the handset become hot during charging. This is normal.

Tip

When you are not using your handset, place it on the charger instead of elsewhere so that
you can always have fully charged battery.

WARNING

DO NOT USE STANDARD OR ALKALINE BATTERIES. THEY MAY EXPLODE AND CAUSE
INJURY. ONLY USE RECHARGEABLE NI-MH BATTERIES AS INDICATED IN THIS USER
MANUAL.

 Risk of explosion if you use incompatible batteries.
 Never use non-rechargeable batteries. Use only batteries that are identical to the one supplied

with your telephone.

 Never use alkaline or lithium batteries.
 Do not throw a battery into a fire. This could result in explosion.
 Do not open or damage the batteries. Electrolyte is corrosive and can cause irritation to eyes

and skin. It is also toxic and must not be swallowed.

 If you must handle the batteries, avoid them from coming into contact with metal objects. This

may cause short circuits or overheating and you may burn yourself.

 Do not attempt to recharge the batteries by heating. The battery electrolyte may leak and

irritate your eyes or skin.

 Observe the polarity indicated. Reversing the polarity of the batteries may result in electrolyte

leakage or even explosion.

 Remove the batteries if you do not intend to use your phone for several months.
 Only use the supplied telephone base for charging the product; otherwise the batteries can be

damaged.

 Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions of your local authorities.

Warning: Danger of explosion if batteries are incorrectly installed.
Use only Ni-MH batteries. The autonomy for the handsets indicated is based on the original
capacity of the batteries.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions of your local authorities.
