signals can interfere with hearing
aids, causing a humming noise.

Use only the approved
handset battery pack
provided. Use only the
power supply provided. Using an
unauthorised power supply will
invalidate your warranty and may
damage the telephone.
Spare batteries, power supplies
and other ancillary items are
available from the Airway spares
line on .
Do not open the controller,
handsets or sockets. This could
expose you to high voltages or
other risks. Contact the Airway
Helpline for all repairs.
Do not expose to direct sunlight.
Radio signals transmitted
between the handset and base
may cause interference to
hearing aids.
This product should not
be used near
emergency/ intensive
care medical equipment and
should not be used by people
with pacemakers.
Never dispose of
batteries in a fire. There
is a serious risk of
explosion and/or the release of
highly toxic chemicals.
The product may heat
up when the batteries are
being recharged. This is
normal. However, we recommend
that you do not place the product
on antique/veneered wood to
avoid damage.
Do not submerge any
part of your product in
water and do not use it in
damp or humid conditions, such
as in bathrooms.
Do not expose your
product to fire, explosive
or other hazardous
conditions.
There is a slight chance
that your product could
be damaged by an
electrical storm. We recommend

The charger can be positioned
anywhere close to a power socket.
If you would like the phone to ring
whilst in the charger, the controller
must be within range (50m).
If the charger is to be placed on a
desk we advise sticking the supplied
feet to the base of the charger.
For wall mounting instructions,
see page 39.

options cards your Airway system
has.
Plug the mains cable

Your handset is supplied with NiMH
batteries.
To help them last as long as possible,
we recommend that you charge
your handset continually for a least
12 hours before use, although the
handset will work after 30 minutes.
The green light on the charger goes
off whenthe battery is fully charged.
Airway has a range of up to
300m outdoors and 50m indoors.
The range may be affected by
being near water (e.g. large
ponds, lakes and the sea) as well
as large metal objects (e.g.
radiators, metal partition walls
and steel girders).
Under ideal conditions the
handset battery should give about
10 hours talktime or 90 hours
standby on single charge.
The charge capacity of the batteries
will reduce with time as they
gradually wear out, so reducing the
talk/standby time of the handset.
Fully discharging the batteries at
least once a week will help them
last as long as possible.
Under no circumstances attempt
to recharge non-rechargeable
batteries.
Press and hold down for
a few seconds until the
display comes on.
