BT Freestyle 6100 – Edition 2-1 – 24.06.04 – 6239
Location
You need to place your BT Freestyle 6100 within 2 metres
of a mains power and telephone socket so that the cables
will reach.
Make sure it is at least 1 metre away from other
electrical appliances to avoid interference.
Your BT Freestyle 6100 works by sending radio signals
between the handset and base. The strength of the
signal depends on where you site the base. Putting it
as high as possible can help to provide the best signal.
Setting up
1. Plug the mains power cable into the base. Then plug the
power adaptor into the wall socket and switch the power on.
The

indicator on the base lights up.
Getting started
WARNING
Do not place your BT Freestyle
6100 in the bathroom or other
humid areas.
Handset range
The BT Freestyle 6100 has a range
of 300 metres outdoors when there
is a clear line of sight between the
base and handset. When there is
no clear line of sight between the
base and handset, e.g. base
indoors and handset either indoors
or outdoors, the range could be
reduced to 50 metres. Thick stone
walls will severely affect the range.
Range indicator
The
symbol on your handset
display indicates when you are in
range of the base. If the symbol
flashes and you hear a warning
beep, you are out of range and will
need to move closer to the base.
IMPORTANT
Do not connect the telephone line
until your handset is fully charged.
The base must be plugged into the
mains power at all times.
