2 INSTALLING YOUR PHONE
2.1 Connecting the base station
1) Plug the power supply and line cord into the base station.
2) Plug the power adapter into a 230Vac,
50Hz mains socket, and the line cord into
your telephone line socket.
3) Always use the cables provided in the box
Warning
: Use only the provided adaptor, using
other power supplies may cause a hazard.
Warning
: Install the base unit in a position
where the mains adapter plug will reach an
easily accessible mains socket. Never try to
lengthen the mains power cable.
NOTE:
The base unit needs mains power for
normal operation, not just for charging the handset batteries.
2.2 Installing and charging the batteries
1) Place the 2 supplied batteries into the battery
compartment with the polarity markings as shown.
Use only the NiMH rechargeable battery type
provided.
2) Position the battery compartment cover over the
batteries and slide up to click into place.
3) Put the handset on the base and charge for
15 hours before using the handset for the first time.
The handset will give a beep when it is properly
placed on the base or charger.
If you have a Broadband line
If you connect your telephone to a line with
a broadband connection, you will need to
insert a micro-filter between the telephone
and the telephone line, otherwise you may get
interference between the telephone and the
broadband, which could cause problems.
In a home with broadband, every telephone
must have a micro-filter connected, not just the
one at the telephone point that your modem is
connected to.
If you need more broadband micro-filters,
contact your broadband supplier.
