2. SET UP THE TELEPHONE
2.1 Package Contents
The package contains the following items:
Handset
Charger
AC power adapter
2 AAA Ni-MH rechargeable batteries
User’s manual
Warranty card
2.2 Location
For maximum coverage and reduce the interference, here
are some guidelines you should consider when you place the
base unit:
Place your telephone 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 telephone works
by sending radio signals between the handset and base.
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 metres.
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.
