2. SET UP THE TELEPHONE

2.1 Package Contents

The package contains the following items:

Handset

Charger

AC power adapter

2 AAA Ni-MH rechargeable batteries

User’s manual

Warranty card

2.2 Location

For maximum coverage and reduce the interference, here

are some guidelines you should consider when you place the

base unit:

Place your telephone 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 telephone works

by sending radio signals between the handset and base.

The strength of the signal depends on where you locate

the base. Putting it as high as possible ensures the best

signal.

The maximum range between the base station and the

handset is approximately 300 metres.

If the reception for a base unit location is not satisfactory,

move it to another location for better reception.

Depending on the surrounding conditions as well as spatial

and structural factors, the range may be reduced. The range

indoors is normally less than outdoors.
