Getting started

Installation

You must install and charge the battery before using the telephone.

Install the telephone base close to a telephone jack and a power outlet not controlled by a wall switch. The telephone base can be placed on a flat surface or vertically mounted on the wall (page 14-15). For optimum range and better reception, place the telephone base in a central and open location.

You may hear interference if your cellular phone is too close to the telephone base during a CELLULAR call. Make sure that your Bluetooth enabled cellular phone is within 15 feet of the telephone base in order to maintain a clear and consistent connection between your Bluetooth cell phone, telephone base and cell tower.

If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (digital subscriber line - DSL) through your telephone line, you must install a DSL filter between the telephone line cord and the telephone wall jack (page 9-10). The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters.

Your product may be shipped with a protective sticker covering the handset or telephone base display - remove it before use.

The caller ID announce feature lets you know who’s calling without having to look at the display. When you have an incoming call, the handset and/or base speaks “Call from...” and the name of the caller based on the directory or caller ID information. If the caller’s name is private or unknown, the phone number up to the last 11 digits will be spoken. If the caller’s phone number is also private or unknown, no information will be spoken. By default, the caller ID announce feature is programmed On.
