In the event of a power failure
During a power failure, if you have fitted fresh
alkaline back-up batteries in the base unit,
your telephone will continue to work for up to
1 hour in use or 7 hours on standby. The
answering machine will not answer incoming
calls, but will retain your outgoing message
and PIN code; it will also keep the day and time
setting and any incoming messages or notes
already recorded. The message display will
remain blank and the charging light will be off.
Once power has been restored, you are
advised to renew the back-up batteries in the
base unit (battery replacement should not be
necessary if the power has only been
disconnected momentarily).
Care of rechargeable battery pack
• When you first install the Freestyle 1100
Plus, or replace the battery pack, the
handset must be fully charged for 24 hours
before use.
• To maintain optimum charge and battery
condition, the handset should be allowed to
fully discharge about every 4 months. Please
note, this will delete the numbers stored in
the handset's memory.
• Dispose of Ni-Cd battery packs safely. Do
not puncture or burn as they contain toxic
materials which could cause injury.
General cleaning
Clean the cabinet of the handset and the base
with a soft cloth slightly dampened with a mild
solution of water and detergent. Charging
contacts should be cleaned with a dry cloth
or for heavy soiling a pencil eraser can be used.
• Do not clean with a wet cloth.
• Do not clean with abrasive materials or
solvents as these may damage the unit.
• Do not spray aerosol cleaners onto the
base or handset.
Extended periods of non-use
It is recommended that you:
• Disconnect the base unit from both mains
supply and telephone line.
• Remove the back-up batteries from the base
unit and handset.
• When reconnecting, check that the
light on the base unit is on.
CHARGING
Recharge the handset batteries for 24 hours.
