BT Diverse Helpline – 08457 908 070

Safety information

General

Only use the power supply included

with the product. Using an

unauthorised power supply will

invalidate your guarantee and may

damage the telephone. Power supply

number is C39280 -Z4-C478.

For the handset use only AAA 1.2V

Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH)

rechargeable batteries with a minimum

capacity of 700 mAh. Never use other

batteries or conventional alkaline

batteries. They could lead to a short

circuit or destroy the battery casing.

Batteries and accessories are available

from

www.withandwithoutwires.com

or call 0870 240 5522.

If the Keyguard is switched on, it is

NOT possible to make calls, including

emergency numbers (

999/112).

Do not open the base station or handset

(other than to change batteries). This

could expose you to high voltages or

other risks.

Radio signals transmitted between the

handset and base may cause interference

to hearing aids.

This product should not be used near

emergency/intensive care medical

equipment and should not be used by

people with pacemakers.

Never dispose of batteries in a fire. There

is a serious risk of explosion and/or the

release of highly toxic chemicals.

Cleaning

Simply clean the handset and base

station with a damp (not wet) cloth, or

an anti-static wipe. Never use household

polish as this will damage the product.

Never use a dry cloth as this may cause

a static shock.

Environmental

Do not expose to direct sunlight.

The product may heat up when the

batteries are being recharged. This is

normal. However, we recommend that

you do not place the product on

antique/veneered wood to avoid damage.

Do not stand your product on carpets or

other surfaces which generate fibres, or

place it in locations preventing the free

flow of air over its surfaces.

Do not submerge any part of your

product in water and do not use it in

damp or humid conditions, such as

bathrooms.

Do not expose your product to fire,

explosive or other hazardous conditions.

There is a slight chance that your phone

could be damaged by an electrical storm.

We recommend that you unplug the

power and telephone line cord during an

electrical storm.

BT Diverse Helpline – 08457 908 070

1 Connect the base station

Plug the power supply cable into the

power socket on the underside of your

base.

Plan the location

Situate your product close enough to

the telephone and mains power sockets

so that the cables will reach.

Make sure it is at least 1 metre away

from other electrical products to avoid

interference.

Do not situate the product in the

bathroom or other humid areas.

Setting up

WARNING

Do not connect the telephone line cord

to the phone socket until your handset

is fully charged. This will prevent the

risk of the phone being answered before

the battery is charged. Answering the

phone before the battery is fully

charged may prevent it from reaching

its optimum capacity.

2 Plug the power supply

unit into the wall socket

SETTING UP

BT Diverse 5450 ~ 6th Edition ~ 29th August ’03 ~ 5199

BT Diverse Helpline – 08457 908 070

WARNING

Under no circumstances should

non-rechargeable batteries be used.

Only use AAA 1.2V Nickel Metal

Hydride (NiMH) rechargeable

batteries with a minimum capacity of

700 mAh.Using inappropriate batteries

will invalidate your guarantee and

may damage the telephone. Batteries

and accessories are available from

www.withandwithoutwires.com

or call 0870 240 5522.

3 Registering and charging

the handset

The display is protected by a plastic

film. Remove the protective plastic film

from the display.

To register the handset

To register your handset, place it in the

base station with the display facing

upward. After approx. one minute, the

handset’s internal number is displayed

(e.g.:

1

). Successful registration is

signalled by a confirmation tone.

When the handset is registered the

display will show:

Insert the batteries

Insert the two batteries supplied, as

indicated inside the battery

compartment and slide the battery

compartment cover shut.

The battery cover may be found in the

packaging with the batteries.

SETTING UP

BT Diverse 5450 ~ 6th Edition ~ 29th August ’03 ~ 5199

14

BT Diverse Helpline – 08457 908 070

Out of range?

If you go out of range of a base station

for a long time while your handset is

switched ON, it may take more than

20 minutes to ‘find’ the base station

again when you come back within

range. However, by simply switching

the handset OFF for a moment, then

ON again, it will find the base station

within a few seconds.

Battery level icons

When the batteries are almost flat a

beep sounds and the display shows the

empty battery icon. You will need to

recharge your handset before you can

use it. The various states of charge

are shown below:

Batteries fully charged

Batteries at 66%

Batteries at 33%

Batteries empty

Battery performance

Batteries and case may become warm

during charging. This is normal.

Under ideal conditions, the handset

batteries should give about 13 hours

talktime or 170 hours standby time

on a single charge. However, new

NiMH batteries do not reach their full

capacity until they have been in

normal use for several days.

The charge capacity of rechargeable

batteries will reduce with time as they

wear out, so reducing the talk/standby

time of the handset. Eventually they

will need to be replaced. New batteries

are available from

www.withandwithoutwires.com

or call 0870 240 5522.

If you replace the handset batteries

with ones that have been fully charged,

the battery indicator will not show full

until the next charge cycle has been

completed. Charge the handset until

the batteries register full again. From

then on the display will be correct.

If the icons on the display

flash continuously...

It means that the handset is not

registered with the base station.

Ensure you have correctly carried out

step 3. If the product has still not

registered, please see “Registering

manually” on page 78.

All additional handsets you purchase

will need to be individually registered

with the base station before they will

work with the BT Diverse 5450.

Leave the handset for approx. 16 hours

in the base station to charge the

batteries, as they are not charged in the

factory. The battery status icon flashes

on the handset to indicate that the

batteries are being charged.

4 Connect the telephone

line cord to the base and

plug into the wall socket

Ensure that each end of the line cord is

fitted into the correct socket.

handset.
