the charger.
10. Carefully remove the handset battery cover. Insert the batteries into the
handset ensuring correct battery polarity is observed, and replace the battery
cover.
11. Place the handset in the charger unit, with the keypad facing outwards.
Once the handset is correctly positioned in the base unit, a beep will be

12. Leave the handset to charge initially for 24 hours before use.
Important note!
Use an original adapter only (9VAC)!
Under power failure conditions the telephone will not operate. Please ensure that a separate
telephone not dependant on local power is available for emergency use. The earpiece of the
handset may attract small ferromagnetic objects such as staples or pins, care should be taken
when placing the handset near these items. Do not place the base unit close to other electrical
equipment such as TV sets, computer screens, telecom equipment, fans, etc. This will minimise
the risk of interference. Do not place the base unit in areas where it will be exposed to direct
sunlight or other major heat sources! In order to conserve battery power, the display is very dark
in standby mode.
If you wish to illuminate the display press any button on the handset, e.g. ∧ .

Installation
Belt clip
A belt clip is included, which can be tted on the back of the handset. The belt
clip enables the hand unit to be attached to a belt, waistband or similar. On
either side of the handset, there are indents for the clips to clasp onto. To attach
the clip, press it into place over the back of the handset.
Wall mounting
The base unit can be wall mounted. Use two screws horizontally mounted 50
mm apart. The screws should t into the two ‘keyholes’ on the back of the base
unit.
The base unit can also be attached to the standard Australian wall plate by
using the included bracket. Attach the bracket by inserting the locators into the
“keyholes” on the back of the base unit and pushing the spring clips into the
holes on the underside of the unit. The base unit can then be attached to the
wall plate.
Battery
The telephone is supplied with environmentally friendly nickel metal hydride
(NiMH) batteries – 2 x AAA 1.2V. As with all batteries, performance may
degrade over time; should you notice that the standby time has reduced
considerably or there are signs of leakage, the batteries should be replaced.
Fully-charged batteries will last for approximately 120 hours in standby or 10
hours call time. These operation times apply at normal room temperature.
Full battery capacity will be achieved once the batteries have been charged 4-5
times, completely discharged batteries will take about 10 hours to fully recharge.
Please note that the battery indicator in the handset display will alternate while
charging and will stop when the battery is fully charged.
The base unit has an automatic charging mechanism that prevents the batteries
from being overcharged or damaged by prolonged charging.
Please note!
To ensure and maintain good charging of the handset batteries we recommend that the base
and handset charge contacts are cleaned regularly, ie monthly, with a pencil eraser and/or soft
dry cloth. The recharging system used in this model may result in the handset and the batteries
heating up. This is normal and will not harm the equipment.
When the telephone is installed for the rst time, the batteries must be charged for 24 hours
before using the telephone. Use original batteries only. The guarantee does not cover any
damage caused by incorrect use of batteries. Please dispose of any batteries in a responsible and
environmentally friendly manner.

Installation
Battery indicator
The symbol in the display indicates when it is time to recharge the
batteries. The indicator consists of three segments, and when the power reduces,
one segment after another changes colour from green to yellow, then red. When
the battery is running low the display will show (red) and a warning tone
will be heard. If the handset is not recharged at this time, the phone will cease
to function until it is recharged.
The symbol (green) will be displayed when the battery is fully charged, it
may take up to ve minutes after the handset has been switched on before the
battery symbol shows the correct value.
Turning on/off
Press and hold i for a few seconds to turn the handset on or off.
When the handset is turned off, no calls can be made or received. The handset
is designed to be always turned on, i.e. it is not necessary to turn it off overnight.
However, we recommend turning the handset off if it is not to be used for a
prolonged period of time, e.g. during a holiday. If the batteries run low, the
handset will turn off.
Please note!
Upon switching the handset on the Date, Time & Alarm setting will require reprogramming.
Range
The range of the telephone varies depending on different factors in the
surrounding environment. Radio waves transmitting the call may be hindered
by obstructions or signal reections that can reduce the range.
Specied ranges require unobstructed transmission between the handset and the
base unit. In such ideal conditions the telephones range can be up to 300 metres.
In densly populated areas, houses, apartments, etc. the range will be reduced.
Try to get the best range by relocating base unit, the ideal location is a high and
unobstructed place.
Out of range warning
If the handset is carried to far from the base unit during a call, the sound quality
may deteriorate and a warning tone will be heard. Unless the handset is moved
closer to the base unit within a few seconds the call will be cut off.
