connected to a socket that you
know works.

supply and let the batteries charge

Your Answer Machine
Make sure the phone is set to
ANS & REC and that the answer
delay is set to answer before any
voicemail service does. The default
setting is four rings. If you want to
change it, take a look at page 30.
Where to put your phone
To make sure your handset gives
you the best range and reception,
avoid interference by placing it
away from any large metal objects
like fridge-freezers, microwave

Quick set-up guide
Where to put your phone
• Place the base within 2 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.
1. Plug in
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.
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 power socket all the time.

found it.
3. Place the handset on the base
and let it charge for 16 hours.
4. After 16 hours, plug the phone
line cord into the phone wall socket.
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

Battery performance
• To keep the batteries in
the best condition, leave the
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
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
218 2182*.
Tip
If you need to take the batteries out,
slide the battery cover down, then
gently take the batteries out.
