Basic Operation

Preparing for Use

Before you can use your cordless telephone, you must charge the HANDSET for 12 hours. Failure
to do so will require recharging of the BATTERY PACK more often.
1. Place the HANDSET on the BASE UNIT for 12 hours.
2. After 12 hours, remove the HANDSET from the BASE UNIT.
Before you can use your cordless telephone, you must charge the HANDSET for 12
hours. Failure to do so will require more frequent charging of the BATTERY PACK.
See page 11 for more information on the BATTERY PACK.
NOTE:
Depending on the frequency of use, once the HANDSET is fully charged, it remains functional for
approximately 4 hours of continuous use and approximately 5 days when the HANDSET is off the
BASE UNIT in STANDBY mode.

Placing Calls

1. Press the button. The IN USE LED
indicator will light up.
2. Listen for a dial tone.
3. Dial the phone number.
4. When you have finished your call, press the
button again. The IN USE LED indicator
will turn off.
NOTES:
1. The BASE UNIT does not have a ringer and does not ring when receiving an incoming call.
2. If you are too far away from the BASE UNIT, the HANDSET emits "beep" sounds to warn you
that the background noise level is too high for proper communication between the HANDSET
and the BASE UNIT. When you hear this sound, you should move closer to the BASE UNIT to
reduce the noise level. Otherwise, the call will automatically cut off.
IMPORTANT
When you hear interference, press the
button to change the operating channel.
