WARNING
Do not place the CD1 in the bathroom or other humid areas.
Location
You need to place the CD1 base within 2 metres of the mains
power socket 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. The CD1 works by sending
radio signals between the handset and base. The strength of
the signal depends on where you site the base. Place it at a
higher position to ensure the best signal.
HANDSET RANGE
The CD1 has a range of up to 300 metres outdoors when
there is a clear line of sight between the base and handset.
Any obstruction between the base and handset will reduce
the range significantly. With the base indoors and handset
either indoors or outdoors, the range will normally be up to
50 metres. Thick stone walls can severely affect the range.
SIGNAL STRENGTH
The
icon on your handset indicates when you are in
range. When out of range of the base, the screen shows
Searching ...
and the
icon flashes.
If you move out of range during a call, the telephone call will
be disconnected. Move back within range before you make
any more calls. The handset will automatically re-connect to
the base once you are back within range.
IMPORTANT
The base station must be plugged into the mains power at all
times. Do not plug the telephone line cord into the wall
socket until the handset is fully charged. Only use the power
and telephone cables supplied with the product.
WHICH POWER ADAPTOR?
The power adaptor with the clear connector is for the base
unit and the power adaptor with the red colour connector is
for the charger unit (multipacks only).
