IMPROVING CORDLESS RECEPTION
Follow these guidelines to improve cordless sound quality:
•
Select an area to install the Excursion
®
39765 where it is closest to the center of your home or office. This will improve the
operating range of the unit.
•
Keep the Excursion
®
39765 base unit away from electrical equipment. Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) is sometimes
generated by these appliances, which can cause a degradation in cordless reception.
•
Set the base unit antenna to its vertical position.
•
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
1. Unplug the telephone line cord from the Excursion
®
39765.
2. Make sure that the adapter is connected.
3. Lift the handset out of the base cradle.
4. 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
1.
Make sure the adapter and telephone line cord are connected to the Excursion
®
39765.
2.
Place the handset on the base cradle. The CHARGE indicator of the base unit will light steadily.
3.
Leave the handset charging on the base for 12 hours continuously to get a maximum charge.
4.
The Excursion
®
39765 is now ready for regular use. Discharge and charge the Ni-Cd battery again once you notice a decrease in
the useable charge time.
MAINTENANCE
1. Your phone should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heaters, stoves or any other appliance that produces
heat.
2. Use a slightly damp cloth to clean the plastic cabinet. A mild soap will help to remove grease or oil. Never use polish,
solvents,
abrasives or strong detergents since these can damage the finish.
