Important note — emergency calls
The iDECT K1 is not designed for making emergency
calls if the mains power fails. So you should make
alternative arrangements for access to Emergency
Services.
(This means that you should also have a basic
phone, that does not need mains power, connected
to your line so that you can make calls during a
power failure.)
If you need help …
The Help Line is available from 9.00 am to 5.00 pm,
Monday to Friday, on
0845 345 9677
Calls are charged at Local Call rate.
Unpacking your iDECT K1 system
In the box are:
■the cordless handset (up to five, depending on
which iDECT K1 system you’ve bought)
■the base unit
■two batteries and a battery compartment
cover for each handset
■atelephone line cable for the base unit
■amains power lead and adapter for the base
unit
■up to four charger pods, each with a separate
mains power lead and adapter, for multi-handset
systems
Keep the packaging materials in a safe place in
case you later need to transport the unit. Keep
your sales (till) receipt, which is your guarantee.
Before you can use the handset to make calls
you’ll need to fit and fully charge the batteries,
as described on page 8. Please read the
notes on page 9 before you install the base unit.

Connection and conditions for use
You can connect your iDECT K1 to a direct exchange line (DEL) — a line
connected to a local exchange, with its own phone number; to an
extension socket connected to a DEL; or to an extension on an approved
compatible PBX. Do not connect the iDECT K1 as an extension to a payphone.
The ringer equivalence numbers (RENs) of all instruments (phones,
fax machines, etc.) connected to an exchange line must not add up to
more than 4 — otherwise, one or more of them may not ring and/or
answer calls correctly. The iDECT K1 has a REN of 1, and most other
telephones have a REN of 1 unless marked otherwise.

Choosing a site
for the base
unit and
charger pod
The base unit and charger pod(s) should be placed on a
level surface, in a position where:
■the mains adapter plug will reach an easily accessible
230-V AC switched mains supply socket — never try
to lengthen the mains power cable
■the base unit’s telephone line cable will reach your
telephone line socket or extension socket (the charger
pod does not have a telephone line connection)
■it is not close to another telephone — this can cause
radio interference
■it is not close to a sink, bath or shower, or anywhere
else where it might get wet
■it is not close to other electrical equipment — fridges,
washing machines, microwave ovens, fluorescent
lights, TVs etc.
Radio signals
between
handset and
base unit
To use your handset and base unit together, you must
be able to establish a radio link between them. Be
aware that:
■Any large metal object — like a refrigerator, a mirror
or a filing cabinet — between the handset and the
base unit may block the radio signal.
■Other solid structures, like walls, may reduce the
signal strength.
Mains power
connection IMPORTANT — The iDECT K1 base unit and charger pod must be used with the mains adapter supplied with
the unit. Using any other adapter will result in non-
compliance with EN60950, and will invalidate any
approval given to this apparatus.
!Make sure mains power to the base unit stays switched
on. The iDECT K1 needs electrical power for normal
operation; not just for charging the batteries.

7Charge the batteries for 15 hours
Before you use the handset for the
first time, it’s important to charge
the batteries fully.
The handset ‘beeps’ when it’s correctly
in position on the charging cradle.
Leave the handset on the charging
cradle for 15 hours.
Make sure the mains socket is
switched on if you want to use

Electrical
safety
■
DON’T let the base unit or charger pod get wet.
Electrical equipment can cause serious injury if used
while you are wet or standing in water.
■
If the base unit or charger pod ever falls into water,
DON’T retrieve it until you have unplugged the power
lead from the mains and the telephone line plug from
the telephone socket (base unit only); then pull it out by
the unplugged cables.
■
NEVER use your iDECT K1 outdoors during a thunder-
storm — unplug the base unit from the telephone line
and the mains socket when there are storms in your
area. Damage caused by lightning is not covered by the
guarantee.
Interference If the sound quality gets worse as you move around
while on a call, this is probably caused by interference
between the handset and the base unit, perhaps
because you are too near to another phone or other
electrical equipment.
Move to a different position to clear the interference.
If you do not move, your call may be cut off.
!Radio interference in the environment may occasion-
ally cause a short break in the link between the
handset and the base unit while you are on a call.
The ‘signal level’ on symbol handset’s display may
flash until the link is restored.
‘Out of range’
warning If you hear a warning tone during a call, and/or the sound in the earpiece becomes faint or distorted, you
may be going out of range of the base unit. Move
nearer to the base unit within 20 seconds, until the
tone stops. Otherwise, your call may be cut off.

SMS text messaging — read this first
SMS stands for short message service — also called
text messaging, or just texting. Users whose phones
support SMS can send each other messages with up to
160 characters (140 characters on mobile phones).
Your iDECT K1 can send and receive SMS messages
to and from mobile phones and compatible land-line
phones. You can also send messages to non-SMS
phones; the messages will be converted into speech.
!The SMS service is provided by BT. If your network
provider (the company that supplies your telephone
line) is not BT, and you find you can’t send or receive
text messages, check that the network provider
supports the BT SMS service in your area.
Caller Display IMPORTANT — to use the SMS service, you must
subscribe to the Caller Display service (see also page
17) from your network provider; you can’t use the
SMS service without Caller Display.
Registering for
the SMS
service
By sending your first SMS text message, you auto-
matically register for the service, and you’ll receive a
text message welcoming you. You may also receive
other text messages with information about the service.
It is occasionally possible to become de-registered
from the BT SMS service — for example, when a
message cannot be delivered because your SMS phone
is switched off. If this happens, you’ll start to receive
text messages as spoken calls from the Messaging
Centre.
Usually, you can automatically re-register by simply
sending another text message. If you have problems,
turn to page 50 for advice.
20
The SMS Send
and Receive
numbers
Your iDECT K1 is preprogrammed with two
telephone numbers for the SMS service — the Send
number and the Receive number. These are:
BT service numbers
Send
telephone
number
1470P1709400
The 1470 ensures that your number is not

withhold it*.
The Pinserts a pause before dialling the
number.

number
080058752
Terminal

* The SMS service will not work if your number is not sent
to the network when you send messages.
It’s important to leave these numbers as they are. If
they’ve been accidentally changed, you’ll need to
reprogram them as described on page 28.

SMS message
boxes Your iDECT K1 has three message boxes:
■The Inbox, which holds messages you’ve received
from other people (incoming messages).
■The Outbox, where a copy of each message you’ve
sent is stored.
■Draft Box, where you can store complete or part-
written messages to send later.
The total number of messages that can be stored in the
message boxes is 20. If you reach the limit of 20 stored
messages, the handset’s display shows SMS Full
and your iDECT K1 won’t receive any new SMS
messages until you delete some messages to make
room (see pages 27 for details of how to delete
messages).
When SMS memory is full, you can still send or forward
a message from any of the message boxes. But no copy
will be stored in the Outbox after you’ve sent it.

■
transfer an outside call from one handset to another
■
shuttle between an outside call and an intercom call
■
set up a three-way conference call
Each handset’s number (1to 5) is shown on its display.
