Getting started

Location
Important
Do not place your CD4 in the bathroom or other humid areas.
Place your CD4 base within reach of the AC power outlet and telephone wall
jack. The socket-outlet should be installed near the equipment and should be
easily accessible.
Make sure it is at least 1 meter away from other electrical appliances to avoid
interference. Your CD4 works by sending radio signals between the handset
and base. The strength of the signal depends on where you place the base.
Putting it as high as possible ensures the best signal.
Handset range
The unit has a range of up to 300 meters 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 significantly. With the base indoors and the
handset either indoors or outdoors, the range will normally be up to 50 meters.
Thick concrete and stone walls can severely affect the range.
Signal strength
on your handset indicates that you are within range of the base. When out
of range of the base, disappears. If you are on a call, you will hear a warning
beep.
If you are on a call, the line will hang up if the handset moves out of range of
the base. Move back within range. The handset will automatically re-connect to
the base.
Setting up
Important
The base station must be plugged into the AC power at all times. Use only the
AC power adaptor and telephone line cord supplied with the product.
