PRODUCT SET UP
Where to place your product
It is important that you consider carefully in advance
where your Torque base and cordless handset will be
situated and make sure that they are:
* on a fl at and stable surface
* within 1.8 metres of a power socket and telephone
socket
* at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances
to avoid any interference
* away from bright sunlight or heat sources, such as
a radiator
* not in a humid or very damp place such as a bathroom
Note:
Your Torque product works by sending radio
signals between the handset and the 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 Torque handset has a range of 300 metres
outdoors when there is a clear line of sight between
the base and the handset. Any obstruction between
the handset and the base will reduce the range
signifi cantly. With the base indoors and the handset
either indoors or outdoors, the range will normally be
up to 50 metres. Thick stone walls can severely aff ect
the range.
Signal strength
The
icon on your handset indicates when you are
in range. When out of range of the base, Searching...
is displayed and the
icon will fl ash.
If you move out of range during a call, the telephone
call will be disconnected. Move back within range
before you make any further calls. The handset will
automatically re-connect to the base.
