Warning
Avoid placing the base station too close
to large metal objects such as filing
cabinets, radiators or electrical
appliances. This can impair the range and
sound quality. Buildings with thick internal
and external walls may impair
transmission of signals to and from the
base.
!
Warning
The base station does not have an ON/
OFF switch. Power is applied when the
power adaptor is plugged into the unit
and connected to the electricity socket.
The only way to power down the unit is
to unplug the power adaptor from the
electricity socket. Therefore, ensure that
the electricity socket is easily accessible.
The power adaptor and telephone line
cord have to be connected correctly, as
incorrect connection could damage the
unit.
Always use the telephone line cord
supplied with the unit. Otherwise, you
may not get a dial tone.
