Choosing a site
for the base
unit and
charger pod
The base unit and charger pod(s) should be placed on a
level surface, in a position where:
■
the mains adapter plug will reach an easily accessible
230-V AC switched mains supply socket —
never try
to lengthen the mains power cable
■
the base unit’s telephone line cable will reach your
telephone line socket or extension socket (the charger
pod does not have a telephone line connection)
■
it is not close to another telephone — this can cause
radio interference
■
it is not close to a sink, bath or shower, or anywhere
else where it might get wet
■
it is not close to other electrical equipment — fridges,
washing machines, microwave ovens, fluorescent
lights TVs etc.
Radio signals
between
handset and
base unit
To use your handset and base unit together, you must
be able to establish a radio link between them. Be aware
that:
■
Any
large metal object
— like a refrigerator, a mirror
or a filing cabinet — between the handset and the
base unit may block the radio signal.
■
Other
solid structures
, like walls, may reduce the
signal strength.
Mains power
connection
IMPORTANT
— The iDECT V2 base unit and charger
pod must be used with the mains adapter supplied with
the unit. Using any other adapter will result in non-
compliance with EN60950, and will invalidate any
approval given to this apparatus.
Make sure mains power to the base unit stays
switched on. The iDECT V2 needs electrical power for
normal operation; not just for charging the batteries.
