IMPROVING CORDLESS RECEPTION

Follow these guidelines to improve cordless sound quality:

•

Select an area to install the Excursion

36247 where it is closest to the center of

your home or office. This will improve the operating range of the unit.

•

Keep the Excursion

36247 base unit away from electrical equipment. Radio

Frequency Interference (RFI) is sometimes generated by these appliances,
which can cause a degradation in cordless reception.

•

Keep the handset batteries charged as much as possible. Weak handset
batteries can limit the range of cordless operation.

MAXIMIZING BATTERY LIFE

Repeated use or recharge of Ni-Cd batteries without periodic full discharge results in
reduced useable charge time. When you notice the usable charge duration
decreasing, fully discharge the Ni-Cd battery and recharge as described:

DISCHARGING

Unplug the telephone line cord from the Excursion

36247 .

Make sure that the adapter is connected.

Lift the handset out of the base cradle.

Press the TALK button of the handset and start discharging.

Once the symbol

LOW

appears on the LCD Display, it means that the battery level is

low. Let it fully discharge for 12 hours. Once the Ni-Cd battery is fully discharged,
you may now charge the battery to its full capacity.

CHARGING

Make sure the adapter and telephone line cord are connected to the
Excursion

36247.

Place the handset on the base cradle. The CHARGE indicator of the base unit
will light steadily.

Leave the handset charging on the base for 20 hours continuously to get a
maximum charge.

The Excursion

36247 is now ready for regular use. Discharge and charge the

Ni-Cd battery again once you notice

a decrease in the useable charge time.
