WARNING
Do not place your BT Studio 1500
in the bathroom or other humid
areas.
Handset range
The BT Studio 1500 has a range
of up to 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.
Signal strength
The icon on your handset display
indicates when you are in range of
the base. When it flashes and you
hear a warning beep, you are out
of range and will need to move
closer to the base.
IMPORTANT
Do not connect the telephone line
cord to the telephone line wall
socket until the handset is fully
charged.
The base station should be
plugged into the mains power
socket at all times.

Location

You need to place your BT Studio 1500 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 BT Studio 1500 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 can help to provide the best signal.

Setting up the base and handset

1. Plug the power adaptor and telephone cable into the
back of the base.
2. Plug the power adaptor into the mains wall socket and
switch the power on. When connected correctly, the
green Power light on the base comes on.
