1. Getting started
Location
Important
Do not place your CD5 in the bathroom or other humid areas.
Place your CD5 base within reach of the mains power and telephone wall
socket. The equipment should be installed near the socket-outlet and should
be easily accessible.
Make sure it is at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances to avoid
interference. Your CD5 works by sending radio signals between the handset
and base. The strength of the signal depends on where you place the base.
Putting it as high as possible ensures the best signal.
Handset range
The unit has a range of up to 300 metres outdoors when there is a clear line
of sight between the base and handset. Any obstruction between the base
and handset will reduce the range significantly. With the base indoors and the
handset either indoors or outdoors, the range will normally be up to 50 metres.
Thick concrete and stone walls can severely aect the range.
Signal strength
The on your handset indicates that you are within range of the base and the
signal strength, the more bars visible the better the signal. If you are out of
range the shows on the display.
If you are on a call when you move out of range, you will hear a warning
beep and the line will hang up. Move back within range. The handset will
automatically re-connect to the base.
Setting up
Important
The base station must be plugged into the mains power at all times. Use only
the power adaptor and telephone line cord supplied with the product.
Connecting the base
LINE

8Getting started
1. Plug the telephone line cord into the socket marked on the rear of the
base. Plug the other end of the telephone line cord into the telephone wall
socket.
2. Plug the power adaptor jack into the socket marked on the rear of the
base and the power adaptor into the mains power wall socket.
Installing and charging the handset
1. Remove the battery cover from the back of the handset and insert
the rechargeable Ni-MH battery cells supplied. Please note the '+' and
'-' markings inside the battery compartment and insert in the correct
direction.
2. Slide the battery cover back into place.
3. If you are charging the batteries for the first time, place the handset on the
base to charge for at least 16 hours continuously.
4. When the handset is fully charged, icon will appear steady on the
display.
Connecting the handset and charger
(for multi-pack only)
If you have purchased a multiple pack, you will need to carry out this process
for all the handsets and chargers.
1. Plug the power adaptor jack into the socket marked on the rear of the
charger and the power adaptor into the mains power wall socket.

Press down

Getting started
2. Remove the battery cover from the back of the handset and insert the
2 x AAA Ni-MH rechargeable batteries supplied. Please note the '+' and
'-' markings inside the battery compartment and insert in the correct
direction.
3. Slide the battery cover back into place.
4. If you are charging the batteries for the first time, place the handset on the
charger to charge for at least 16 hours continuously. When the handset is
fully charged, the icon will appear steady on the display.
Battery low warning
If you hear a warning beep every 5 minutes during a call or every 2 minutes
when in standby, you will need to recharge the handset before you can use it
again.
When the battery is low the icon shows on the display.
When charging, the icon will scroll on the display. Once the battery is fully
charged or the handset is removed from the base or charger, scrolling will stop.
Battery performance
In ideal conditions, fully charged batteries should give up to 18 hours talk time
or up to 300 hours standby time on a single charge.1
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 the rechargeable battery will reduce with time as it
wears out, giving the handset less talk and standby time. Eventually it will need
to be replaced.

10 Getting started
After charging your handset for the first time, subsequent charging time is
about 6–8 hours a day. Batteries and the handset may become warm during
charging. This is normal.
Important
When fully charged batteries are removed and re-inserted, the battery icon on the
display will reduce to 1 bar. The battery is still fully charged and the handset can be
used as normal. You can charge the handset again by replacing it on the base unit.
This is normal behaviour and is a reminder to charge the handset to prevents calls
being dropped. If the handset is powered o and on there will be no change to the
battery icon.
1All talk and standby times are approximate and depend on features selected
and usage pattern.
Welcome screen
1. Welcome is displayed and scrolls in dierent languages. Press Menu . The
country name is shown on the display.
2. Scroll uor dto the country where the phone will be used and press OK .
The handset and base will reset to load the correct settings and you will be
prompted to set the date and time. The standby screen is then displayed
and your phone is ready to use.
Note
To select the preferred language, please select the correct country (where the
phone will be used) during welcome set up, once setup is finished, see "Display
language" on page 34 to select the required language.
If the wrong country (not where the phone is to be used) is selected this may
lead to the wrong default settings being loaded, and the phone may need to
be reset, see "Selected the wrong county in welcome mode, how to recover?"
on page 43.
Date and time
If you have subscribed to a Caller ID Service and Auto clock is set to on (see
37), the date and time is set automatically for all handsets when you
receive your first call. If Auto clock is set to o the time and date does not set
automatically.
If you do not have a Caller ID service, you can set the date and time manually.
1. Press Menu , scroll dto Clock/Alarm and press OK .
