2 INSTALLING YOUR PHONE
2.1 Connecting the Base Station
1)
Plug the mains power cable and telephone
line cord into the base station.
2)
Plug the power adapter into a 100 ‐ 240Vac,
50 ‐ 60Hz mains power socket, and the
telephone line cord into a telephone
line socket.
Warning:
Always use the cables provided in the box.
Use only the supplied adaptor. Using other power
cables may damage the unit.
Note:
Place the base unit within easy reach of the mains
power socket.
Never try to lengthen the mains power cable.
The base station needs mains power for normal operation, and the
cordless handsets will not work without it.
2.2 Installing and Charging the Rechargeable Batteries
1)
Insert the 2 supplied batteries into the
battery compartment, observing the correct
polarity (see markings inside battery
compartment).
Warning: Use only the supplied NiMH
rechargeable batteries.
2)
Place the back cover over the back of the
handset and press down until it clicks into
place.
3)
Place the handset on the base and charge for
15 hours before using the handset for the first time.
• The handset will give a double beep when it is properly placed
on the base and the battery charging indicator on the base
lights up to indicate charging.
Note: The handset may become warm when the batteries are being
charged or during prolonged periods of use. This is normal and does not
indicate a fault.

If you have a broadband line
If you connect your telephone to a line with a
broadband connection, you will need to
insert a micro‐filter between the telephone
and the telephone line; otherwise you may
get interference between the telephone and
the broadband, which could cause problems.
In a home with broadband, every telephone must have
a micro‐filter connected, not just the one at the telephone point that
your modem is connected to.
If you need more broadband micro‐filters contact your broadband
supplier.
