Installation
Battery
The telephone is supplied with environmentally-friendly nickel metal hydride
(NiMH) batteries – 2 x AAA 1.2V. As with all batteries, performance may
degrade over time; should you notice that talk and standby times have dropped
considerably or there are signs of leakage, the batteries should be replaced.
Fully-charged batteries will last for approx. 100 hours in standby or 10 hours call
time. These operation times apply at normal room temperature.
Full battery capacity will be achieved once the batteries have been charged 4-5
times, completely discharged batteries will take about 10 hours to fully recharge.
Please note that the battery indicator in the handset display rotates while
charging and will stop when the battery is fully charged.
The base unit has an automatic charging mechanism that prevents the batteries
from being overcharged or damaged by prolonged charging.
Please note!
To ensure and maintain good charging of the handset batteries we recommend that the base
and handset charge contacts are cleaned regularly, ie monthly, with a pencil eraser and/or soft
dry cloth. The recharging system used in this model may result in the handset and the batteries
heating up. This is normal and will not harm the equipment.
When the telephone is installed for the first time, the batteries must be charged for 24 hours
before using the telephone. Use original batteries only. The guarantee does not cover any
damage caused by incorrect use of batteries. Please dispose of any batteries in a responsible and
environmentally friendly manner.
Battery indicator
The symbol in the display indicates when it is time to recharge the
batteries.
The
indicator has three segments, which disappear as the battery
charge decreases. When the battery is running low is displayed and a
warning tone will be heard. If the handset is not recharged at this time, the
phone will cease to function until it is recharged. The symbol will be
displayed only when the battery is actually fully charged.
Range
Specified ranges require unobstructed transmission between the handset and
base unit. In such ideal conditions the telephones range can be up to 300 metres.
In densly populated areas, houses, apartments etc the range will be reduced.
Try to get the best range by relocating the base unit, the ideal location is a
high and unobstructed place. If the handset is carried to far from the base unit
during a call the sound quality will decrease and the call will be terminated.
