7Getting started
1. Getting started
Location
Important
Although the O2 handset is water resistant we do not recommend you locate
your main base or charger in the bathroom or other humid areas.
You need to place your O2 base within 2 metres of the mains power and
telephone wall sockets so that the cables will reach. The socket-outlet should
be installed near the equipment and should be easily accessible.
Make sure that it is at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances
to avoid interference. Your O2 works by sending radio signals between the
handset and base. The strength of the signal depends on where you place the
base. Placing it as high as possible ensures the best signal.
Handset range
The unit has two antennas that can be used with the handset:
Standard range antenna: Outdoor range 600 metres1
Indoor range 50 metres1
Long range antenna: Outdoor range 1km1
Indoor range 50 metres1
1When there is a clear line of sight between the base and handset. Any
obstruction between the base and handset will reduce the range significantly.
To change antennas simply unscrew (anti -clockwise) the standard range
antenna on the handset and replace with the long range antenna.
Signal strength
The icon on your handset indicates that you are within range of the base.
When out of range of the base, the icon flashes. If you are on a call, you will
hear a warning beep.
The line will hang up if the handset moves out of range of the base. Move
closer to the base. The handset will automatically reconnect to the base.
Unscrew the antenna
anti-clockwise
when the screen is
facing you.
Unscrew
Tighten

8 Getting started
Setting up
Important
The base station must be plugged into the mains power at all times. Do not
connect the telephone line cord into the wall socket until the handset is fully
charged. Use only the power adaptor and telephone line cord supplied with
the product.
Connecting the base
1. Plug the telephone line cord into the socket marked lon the underside of
the base.
2. Plug the power adaptor into the socket marked Pon the underside of the
base and plug the other end into the mains power wall socket. The green
Power/In use light comes on and you will hear a confirmation tone.
Installing and charging the handset

9Getting started
1. Plug the power adaptor into the socket marked Pon the underside of the
charger and plug the other end into the mains power wall socket.
2. The 750mAh Ni-MH battery pack is pre installed. If you are charging the
batteries for the first time, place the handset on the charger to charge for
at least 16 hours continuously.
3. When the handset is fully charged, icon will appear steady on the
display. The display will show the time and handset number (e.g. 2)
to indicate that it is registered to the base. Plug the other end of the
telephone line cord (make sure that one end is already plugged into the
base) into the telephone wall socket.
Replacing the handset battery
1. Unscrew the belt clip, then unscrew the 4 screws on the battery cover (the
screws will stay attached to the battery compartment door) from the back
of the handset and plug in the 750 mAh Ni-MH rechargeable battery pack
supplied.
2. Replace the battery cover and screw the cover into place. Finally, screw the
belt clip on.
Important
Warning! Use only the approved rechargeable Ni-MH battery pack (750mAh
Ni-MH rechargeable battery pack) supplied with your O2.
Battery low
If icon is displayed and you hear a warning beep every 30 seconds during a
call, you will need to recharge the handset before you can use it again. When
charging, icon will scroll on the display.

10 Getting started
Battery performance
In ideal conditions, fully charged batteries should give up to 12 hours talk time
or up to 250 hours standby time on a single charge.
Note that new batteries do not reach their full capacity until they have been
put to normal use for several days.
To keep your batteries in the best condition, leave the handset o 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.
The charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with time as they
wear out, giving the handset less talk/standby time. Eventually they will need
to be replaced (see page 9).
After charging your handset for the first time, subsequent charging time
is about 6–8 hours a day. Batteries and handset may become warm during
charging. This is normal.
1All talk and standby times are approximate and depend on features selected
and usage pattern.
Welcome screen
1. The Welcome screen will briefly appear, then a list of countries is displayed.
2. Scroll Uor Dto your country (operator) and press
Select .
The handset and base will reset to load the correct settings. The standby
screen is then displayed and your phone is ready to use.
You can still make and receive calls without first selecting your country and
network operator, however the Welcome screen will re-appear until you have
configured your phone country settings.
