Notes
■
When the handset is switched off, it can’t be used for
making calls,
including emergency calls
.
■
When the handset is switched off, it won’t ring for
incoming calls, but the base unit will still ring. To
answer a call when the handset is switched off, you
need to switch it back on. Remember that it may take a
few moments for the handset to re-establish a radio link
with the base unit.
■
If the batteries have become completely run down (or if
the handset is switched off) and you place the handset
in the charging cradle, it may take about 5 minutes to
link with the base unit. If you lift the handset during this
time, it will try to link to the base unit.
!
Make sure mains power to the base unit stays
switched on. The DECT 1915/1915+1 needs electrical
power for normal operation; not just for charging
the batteries.
