Where to put your phone
• Place the base within
3 metres of a mains power
socket and 1.8 metres of a
phone socket so the cables
will reach.
• Make sure it’s at least a
metre away from other
electrical appliances to
avoid interference.
• Don’t place the phone or
base in a bathroom or
other humid area.
• The product works by
sending radio signals
between the handset and
base. The strength of the
signal depends on where you
position the base. Putting it
as high as possible can help
give you the best signal.
IMPORTANT
• Don’t connect the phone line
to a phone socket until the
handset is fully charged.
• The base station should
be plugged into the mains
power socket all the time.
1. Plug the mains
power adaptor into
the base, with the
cable clipped in the
groove provided.
2. Plug the other end
of the power adaptor
into the wall power
socket and switch on.

Talk/Standby time
Under ideal conditions, the
handset batteries should give
up to 12 hours talk time or
120 hours standby on a single
charge. (This doesn’t mean you
can unplug the base or leave
the handset for this length of
time without charge).
Please note that new Ni-MH
rechargeable batteries don’t
reach full capacity until
they’ve been in normal use
for several days.
Battery low warning
The icon will flash, you’ll
see the message Battery
Low in the display and hear a
warning beep every minute,
to indicate that you need to
recharge your handset before
you can use it.
You can remove the display
message by selecting Hide. If
the battery charge completely
runs out, the display will show
Batteries flat. Please
charge . You must recharge
the handset batteries before
you can use the handset. If the
charge completely runs out the
handset will switch off. Place
the handset on the base or
charger to charge.

Quick set-up guide6
Battery performance
• To keep the batteries in the
best condition, leave the
handset off the base for a
few hours at a time.
• Running the batteries right
down at least once a week
will help them last as long
as possible.
• After charging your handset
for the first time, subsequent
charging time for the
batteries is approximately
8 hours.
• The charge capacity of
rechargeable batteries will go
down over time, which will
reduce the talk and standby
time. Eventually they’ll need
replacing. For details on how
to get replacement batteries,
call the helpline on 0800
145 6789*.
3. Once set-up is complete your handset will display
Please check line cord , place the handset on the
base to charge until step 4.
4. After 24 hours, plug the phone line cord into the
phone wall socket.
IMPORTANT
Charge the handset batteries for 24 hours or your
phone might not work.
Set up your additional handsets (multipacks only)
1. For additional handsets and chargers: plug the
mains power adaptor into the back of the charger
and plug the other end into the mains wall socket
and switch on the power.
2. Activate the batteries as explained on page 5.
3. Place the handset on the charger to charge for
24 hours.
