Range / Location
To obtain the best possible range, we recommend positioning the telephone in a
location central to your sphere of activity. Avoid positioning the telephone in niches,
recesses and behind steel doors.
The maximum range between base station and handset is approximately 300 meters
outdoors. Depending on the surrounding conditions as well as spatial and structural
factors, the range may be smaller. Silent zones can occur due to the digital transmis-
sion in the frequency range used – even within the range, depending on the structural
environment. In this case the transmission quality may be reduced through the
increased incidence of short breaks in transmission. Normal call quality can be
restored if you move slightly out of the silent zone. If the range is exceeded, the call
will be disconnected unless you move back into range within ten seconds.

Battery advice
Use only the original battery (Li-Ion 3.7 V / 550 mAh) as well as the original power sup-
ply (6.5 V DC 300mA, 7.5 V 200mA).
The handset operating times (standby 150 hours/active 10 hours) and charging times
apply only if the battery is charged to the defined minimum capacity.
Charging is electronically controlled to ensure optimal charging and care of battery in
different charge states. Full capacity is achieved only after several charging cycles.
Insert the battery
The battery compartment is situated in
the handset.
Open the handset cover.
Insert the battery in the battery compart-
ment.
Replace the handset cover.
Note:
Using other rechargeable battery or non-rechargeable battery/primary cells
can be dangerous and cause malfunctions or damage to the telephone. Do
not short-circuit the battery (danger). In particular, avoid inadvertent short-
circuits during storage and transport e.g. bunch of keys, metal panels or
similar objects, and make sure the battery do not come into contact with
greasy materials. When not in the handset, therefore, battery should be
stored only in insulating packaging. Ensure also that the contacts do not
touch greasy parts.
Rechargeable battery can become warm while recharging. This is a normal
occurrence and is not dangerous.
Make sure you install the battery pack and fit the cover the right way round:
- position the 3 metal contacts of the battery pack against the 3 blade
contacts,
- align the green dot on the handset with the one on the cover.
