Location
Place your VT9012 within 2 metres of the mains power
1
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 VT9012 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.

Getting started
WARNING
Do not place your VT9012 in the
bathroom or other humid areas.
Handset range
The VT9012 has a range of 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. If moving out
of range of the base, the range
indicator will flash. If you go out of
range, any call you are on will be lost.
IMPORTANT
The base station must be plugged into
the mains power socket at all times.
Do not connect the telephone line
until the handset is fully charged.
Only use the power and telephone
cables supplied with the product.
For each additional handset and charger:
1. Insert the cable through the channel at the rear of the charger
and insert the plug into the power socket. Plug the other end
into the mains wall power socket and switch on.
2. The NiMH battery is already fitted in the handset. Remove the
battery compartment cover, by sliding it downward and lifting
off. Locate the battery lead and connector and plug it into the
socket inside the battery compartment (the red wire should be
on the left). Tuck the battery leads in the space above the
battery and slide the battery compartment cover back on.
Charge the battery for at least 20 hours.
