Introduction
Please read the instructions carefully
before use and retain this user guide for
future reference. This guide covers the
basic features of the Diverse 2000
Pocket Phone. For comprehensive
instructions see your main Diverse user
guide(s) supplied with the base station.
Building up a phone system.
You can add further handsets to build
up a comprehensive and easy-to-use
cordless telephone system. Up to 6
separate handsets (8 with Diverse
2-line and Diverse ISDN) can be used
with each Diverse base station; and
each handset can itself work from six
base stations.

As this product is rechargeable,
it is normal that a certain amount of
heat will be produced in its day to day
operation. Whilst this is entirely safe,
we would advise against placing the
phone on antique, veneered or wooden
surfaces as damage may occur.

WARNING
1 Use only approved rechargeable
battery packs. Never attempt to
use other batteries or conventional
batteries. Using such batteries
could lead to a short circuit or
destroy the battery casing.
Replacement battery packs are available
from the Diverse Helpline on
0345 90 80 70 and your local BT shop.
2Do not try to use any power supply
except the one provided, otherwise you
may permanently damage your Diverse.
It will also result in non-compliance with
EN41003: 1993, and will invalidate the
approval given to this apparatus.
3Do not use non-BT charging stations;
this could damage the batteries.
4Research has shown that in certain
cases, medical equipment can be affected
by cordless telephones. A distance of
at least one metre should therefore be
observed between the telephone and
medical equipment.
5The Diverse 2000 Pocket Phone can also
interfere with other electrical equipment
e.g. answering machines, TV and radio
sets, clock radio/alarms and computers
if placed too close. It is recommended
to place your Diverse 2000 Pocket
Phone at least one metre away from such
appliances to avoid any risk of
interference.
6If you wear a hearing aid, please note
that the Diverse system works by
sending radio signals between the base
station and handset. These signals can
interfere with hearing aids, causing a
humming noise.

WARNING cont.
7There is a slight chance that your phone
could be damaged by an electrical
storm. We recommend that you unplug
the base station from the mains during
storms.
8Do not use your phone in bathrooms,
near fire or water, or in areas where
there is a danger of explosion.
9Clean the handset with a base station
with a damp (not wet) cloth or antistatic
wipe. Never use a dry cloth as this may
cause a static shock.
10 Do not dispose of your batteries in
normal household rubbish and do not
place in water or a fire. Please dispose
carefully.
11 When scrolling through the handset
lock menu you will see the display
(DSS) NUMBER. Under no circumstances
should you try to amend or store this
number as this may stop you from
dialling emergency numbers when the
handset is locked.
Approved battery packs
Use only the rechargeable battery packs
from BT Shops and the Diverse Helpline on
0345 90 80 70.
General cleaning
Simply clean the handset and base station
with a damp (not wet) cloth or antistatic
wipe. Never use a dry cloth as this may
cause a static shock. Never spray cleaning
fluid directly onto the telephone.

Place the handset in the charging unit.
Make sure that the contacts on the
bottom end of the handset are touching
both charging contacts.
When the handset battery is charging,
the green CHARGING light comes on.
When the handset has been charging
for 16 hours, the Diverse 2000 Pocket
Phone is ready for registration.
Use your Pocket Phone without
switching it off or charging it until you
hear the battery warning beep.
This makes sure that the battery pack
and handset are correctly adjusted to
each other.

Battery display when inserting or
replacing a battery
When you replace the handset battery
with one that has been fully charged,
the battery indicator will not show full
until the next charge cycle has been
completed. Charge the handset until the
battery registers full again. From then
on the display will be correct.
3. Charge the handset battery
for at least 16 hours.

Battery performance
Batteries become warm during
charging. This is normal and not
dangerous. As charging is controlled
electronically by the Diverse 2000
Pocket Phone, this means you can
replace the handset back on the base
station or charger at any time without
overcharging.
Under ideal conditions, the handset
battery should give approximately
9 hours talktime or 90 hours standby
on a single charge.
Please note that the lifespan of
rechargeable batteries depends on how
heavily they are used. However, over
time, their capacity to recharge will
begin to diminish and they will
eventually need replacing.
9
Getting the most from
your battery.
From time to time, run the battery
down until you hear the battery
warning beep. This helps the battery
last longer and give you optimum
performance.
Normal battery charging time
After charging your Diverse 2000
Pocket Phone for the first time
(16 hours), normal charging time for
the handset battery is approximately
7 hours.
