Edition 2 - 5th October 1999

Your Freestyle 1025 works by sending and
receiving radio signals between the base unit
and the handset. 

The strength of the signal depends on where
you site the base unit and how the aerial is
deployed. 

The higher the base unit is located, the better.
An upstairs room is ideal. The following points
should be considered:

• It should be within easy reach of a mains

socket and a telephone socket. A new-style
telephone socket is needed for this product. 
If you do not have one, call us on

.

• Try to avoid locations near metallic obstructions

or electrical appliances, such as TV sets,
fridges, computers, fluorescent lights, radiators,
metal pipes and metal window frames.

• The Freestyle 1025 can be wall-mounted by

using the bracket and screws supplied; see
pages 38-39.

Your Freestyle 1025 is now ready for use

SETTING UP

For the best reception

Try to avoid putting the telescopic aerial near other

electrical appliances, fluorescent lights and large

metallic objects such as cookers, radiators and garage
doors as these may cause interference and reduce the

quality of your calls.
