Installation and Charger
1
. Connect the mains adaptor (supplied) to the socket on the back of the base unit
and to the wall mains supply.
2
. Connect the telephone cord to the phone socket on the back of the base unit and
into the wall phone socket.
Note:
In Australia some phone wall sockets are the old non modular style. If
you have this type of wall socket you will need to purchase a “modular
converter plug” (not supplied). These can be obtained from electronic
stores.
3
. Insert 2 rechargeable Ni-MH AAA batteries (included),
observing the correct polarity, into the battery compartment
on the handset. Slide the battery door
fi
rmly into place.
4
. Place the handset on the charging cradle and charge the bat-
teries for a full
15 hours
before using it for the
fi
rst time.
Tip!
It is good practice to put the cordless handset on the charging cradle when it is not in
use to ensure that the handset is always fully charged.
Important: DO YOU HAVE BROADBAND/ADSL?
If you do, you must connect an in line filter (not supplied) between the telephone socket
and your eco5100 base to ensure that your broadband and eco5100 will work properly.
If you do not install the filter you will experience interference on the eco5100 and your
Broadband may suffer dropouts. Please refer to the user guide of the in line filter for
installation.
