Getting started
Location
You need to place the base unit 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
cordless phone works by sending radio signals between
the handset and base. The strength of the signal depends
on where you site the base. Putting it as high as possible
ensures the best signal.
Handset range
The range is 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 icon flashes and the
handset gives an out-of range warning tone every minute.
This tone is repeated until you move back into range.
If you move out of range during a call, the telephone call
will be disconnected. Move back within range before you
