Care and maintenance

• Wipe the LCD screen gently with a soft, clean, dry cloth.
• To remove fingerprints on the LCD screen, wipe gently with a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not
use cleaning solutions unless they are designed specifically for LCD screens.
IMPORTANT
Always switch off and disconnect the power adapter before cleaning the iHome Phone.
5.2

Handset range

The iHome Phone 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 significantly. With the base indoors and handset either indoors or
outdoors, the range will normally be up to 50 metres. Thick stone walls can severely affect
the range.
5.3

Signal strength

The icon on your handset indicates when you are in range. When out of range of the
base, the signal strength will drop out.
If you are on a call, the line will hang up. Move back within range. The handset will
automatically re-connect to the base.
