2. SETTING UP THE TELEPHONE

2.1 Package contents

The package contains the following items:

･ 1 Handset ･ 1 Rechargeable battery pack
･ 1 Charger ･ 1 Chinese operation manual
･ 1 AC power adapter ･ 1 English operation manual

2.2 Location

For maximum coverage and reduce the interference, here are some guidelines you should consider when you place the base unit,

- place it at a convenient, high, and central location with no obstructions between the handset and base unit in an indoor environment.

- place it away from electronic appliances such as televisions, microwave ovens, radios, personal computers, wireless devices or other
cordless phones.

- avoid facing radio frequency transmitters, such as external antennas of mobile phone cell stations.

- avoid plugging it into the same circuit as other major household electrical appliances because of the potential for interference. Try moving
the appliance or the base unit to another power outlet.

If the reception for a base unit location is not satisfactory, move it to another location for better reception. Depending on the surrounding
conditions as well as spatial and structural factors, the range may be reduced. The range indoors is normally less than outdoors.

2.3.1 Connecting the charger

1. Plug the power supply into the charger.

2. Plug the power supply cord into the wall outlet not controlled by a wall switch.

3. Always use the cables provided in the box.
