The icon in the handset display indicates when you are in range, it flashes when you go out
of range and you will hear a beep. You will need to move closer to the base. Try to position the
phone at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances to avoid interference and help
maximise the handset range.
Setting up
1. Plug the power adaptor and telephone cable
into the underside of the base. Only use the
cables provided with the product.
2. Plug the the other end of the power
adaptor into the wall socket and switch
the power on. The green Power indicator
