Getting started
1.- Location
You need to place your telephone base within 2 meters of the mains power
socket.
Make sure it is at least 1 meter 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 site the
base. Putting it as high as possible ensures the best signal.
2.- Handset range
The telephone has a range of 300 meters 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 meters. Thick stone walls can severely
affect the range.
3.-Signal strength
The icon
on your handset indicates when you are in range. When out of
range of the base, the screen shows SEARCHING the icon
flashes and
the handset gives an out-of-range warning tone every minute. This tone is
repeated until you move back into range.
If you move out of range during a call, the telephone call will be disconnected.
Move back within range before you make any further calls. The handset will
automatically re-connect to the base.
