Getting started

Location

Place your VT9011 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 VT9011 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 ensures
the best signal.

Setting up

1. Plug the mains power cable into the socket marked
underside of the base and plug the other end into the mains
power wall socket and switch the power on. You can place the
cable behind the retaining clip to prevent the plug being
accidentally pulled from the socket.

WARNING
Do not place your VT9011 in the
bathroom or other humid areas.
Handset range
The VT9011 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.
Signal strength
The icon on your handset indicates
when you are in range. If moving out
on the
of range of the base, the range
indicator will flash. If you go out of
range, any call you are on will be lost.
Which power adaptor?
If you have purchased a multiple pack,
you should use the power adaptor with
the smallest plug for the base.
IMPORTANT
The base station must be plugged into
the mains power socket at all times.
Do not connect the telephone line
until the handset is fully charged.
Only use the power and telephone
cables supplied with the product.
