GETTING STARTED
Location
You need to place your Slim base within 2 metres of the mains
power socket and telephone socket so that the cables will reach.
Make sure it is at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances
to avoid interference. Your unit works by sending radio signals between
the handset and 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 Slim has a range of 300 metres outdoors when there is a
clear line of sight between the base and handset. Any obstruction
between the base and handset will reduce the range. With the
base indoors and handset either indoors or outdoors, the range will
normally be up to 50 metres. Thick concrete walls can severely
affect the range.
Signal strength
The
icon on your handset indicates when you are in range. When
out of range of the base, the screen shows SEARCHING the
fl ashes and the handset gives an out-of-range warning tone every
minute. This tone is repeated until you move back into range.
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.
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
batteries for a full 14 hours before using it for the fi rst time.
