I. Box contents
1 Handset
1 Base
1 Power adapter
1 RJ11 telephone cord
2 telephone adapters
2 AAA NiMh, 750 mAh rechargeable batteries
1 quick-start guide
Some tips to help you get the best from your phone quickly
are:
Pick the handset up by the sides, touching the area just
below the front black touch sensor panel, then cradle the
back of the handset in your hand whilst you dial.
During use, avoid touching the keypad area unnecessarily
to prevent accidental triggering of the keypad.
The keypad will automatically disable when you hold the
receiver to your ear to reduce the risk of accidental
keypad presses while the handset is held against the side

of your face.
To‘wake’the keypad to enable you to dial further digits,
e.g. if you want to access the menu, you just need to take
the handset away from your ear and wait for the backlight
to come on. You can then dial normally.
It is very easy to tell when the keypad is disabled, as the
keypad backlight will be off.
When dialling digits to select from a voice menu, e.g. Press
1 for accounts..., please ensure that you hold the handset
away from the display area.
Holding the handset at the top around the display area
may activate the secrecy feature.
The maximum range of the handset from the base is approx.
300m. The range may be reduced in certain environments and
when used in certain conditions (proximity to other
appliances, walls, various obstacles). Indoors, the range is
generally inferior (approx. 50m) to the outdoors.
