Before operating this set,
Important note — emergency calls
The DECT 1905 must be registered to a base series
(DECT 1915 or DECT1955) before use and
designed for making emergency calls when the mains power fails. So you should make alternative arrangements for access to Emergency Services.
(This means that you should also have a basic phone that does not need mains power, connected to your line so that you can make calls during a power failure.)

Unpacking your DECT1905
In the box are:

Read these notes first
Choosing a site for the charger pod
Radio signals between handset and base unit
Mains power connection
The charger pod(s) should be placed on a level surface, in a position where:
the mains adapter plug will reach an easily accessible
240-V
AC switched mains supply socket — never try
to lengthen the mains power cable
it is not close to another telephone — this can cause
radio interference
it is not close to a sink, bath or shower, or anywhere
else where it might get wet
it is not close to other electrical equipment — fridges,
washing machines, microwave ovens, fluorescent lights, TVs etc.
To use your handset and base unit together, you must be able to establish a radio link between them. Be aware that:
Any large metal object — like a refrigerator, a mirror or a filing cabinet — between the handset and the base unit may block the radio signal.
Other solid structures, like walls, may reduce the signal strength.
IMPORTANT — The DECT 1905 charger pod must be used with the mains adapter supplied with the unit. Using any other adapter will invalidate any approval given to this apparatus.

Installation and set-up
Charge the batteries for 15 hours

Before you use the handset for the first time, it’s important to charge the batteries fully.
The handset ‘beeps’ when it’s correctly in position on the charging cradle.
Leave the handset on the charging cradle for 15 hours.
The batterycharge level symbol should increase by one bar every half hour when you’re charging an empty battery. If you think that the symbol isn’t showing the correct batterycharge level, remove and refit the batteries.
Keeping the batteries charged
n
When you don’t need to use the handset (for example, overnight or when you go out), replace it on the base unit or charger pod, to keep the batteries charged.
n
Whenever the battery charge level symbol shows ‘nearly empty’( ), place the handset on the base unit or charger pod to charge the batteries.

Electrical safety
Interference If the sound quality gets worse as you move around
‘Out of range’
warning
DON’T let the base unit or charger pod get wet.
Electrical equipment can cause serious injury if used while you are wet or standing in water.
If the base unit or charger pod ever falls into water,
DON’T retrieve it until you have unplugged the power lead from the mains and the telephone line plug from the telephone socket (base unit only); then pull it out by the unplugged cables.
NEVER use your DECT 1905 outdoors during a
thunderstorm — unplug the base unit from the telephone line and the mains socket when there are storms in your area. Damage caused by lightning is not covered by the guarantee.
while on a call, this is probably caused by interference between the handset and the base unit, perhaps because you are too near to another phone or other electrical equipment.
Move to a different position to clear the interference. If you do not move, your call may be cut off.
Radio interference in the environment may occasionally
!
cause a short break in the link between the handset and the base unit while you are on a call. The handset’s display may briefly show is restored.
If you hear a warning tone during a call, and/or the sound in the earpiece becomes faint or distorted, you may be going out of range of the base unit. Move nearer to the base unit within 20 seconds, until the tone stops. Otherwise, your call may be cut off.
