WARNING
Do not place your D1010 in the bathroom or other humid areas.
Location
You need to place your D1010 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. Your
D1010 works by sending radio signals between the handset and base. The strength of the signal
depends on where you place the base. Putting it as high as possible ensures the best signal.
HANDSET RANGE
The D1010 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
flashes.
If you are on a call, the line will hang up if the handset moves out of range of the base. Move back
within in range. The handset will automatically re-connect to the base.
Setting up
IMPORTANT
The base station must be plugged into the mains power at all times. Do not connect 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 a clear connector is for the base unit and the power adaptor with a red
colour connector is for the charger unit.
Connecting up the base
Plug the mains power cable with the clear connector into the socket marked
on the
underside of the base and plug the other end into the mains power wall socket and switch the
power on.
Connecting the handset and charger (Multi-pack only)
If you have purchased a multiple pack, this process will need to be carried out for all handsets and
chargers:
1.
Plug the mains power cable with the red connector into the socket marked
on the
underside of the charger.
2.
Insert the 2 x AAA NiMH batteries supplied into the handset. Then slide the compartment
cover into place.
