3.1 Connect the base station
Place the
base station in a central
location near the telephone line
socket and electricity socket.
Connect the line cord and the
power cable to their corresponding
connectors at the back of the base
station.
Connect the other end of the line
cord and power cable to their
respective sockets.
Note
The line adaptor may not be attached to the
line cord. In this case, you have to connect
the line adaptor to the line cord first before
plugging the line cord to the line socket.
Warning
Avoid placing the base station too close to
large metal objects such as filing cabinets,
radiators or electrical appliances. This can
impair the range and sound quality.
Buildings with thick internal and external
walls may impair transmission of signals to
and from the base.
Warning
The base station does not have an ON/OFF
switch. Power is applied when the power
adaptor is plugged into the unit and
connected to the electricity socket. The
only way to power down the unit is to
unplug the power adaptor from the
electricity socket. Therefore, ensure that
the electricity socket is easily accessible.
The power adaptor and telephone line cord
have to be connected correctly, as incorrect
connection could damage the unit.
Always use the telephone line cord
supplied with the unit. Otherwise, you
may not get a dial tone.
3.2 Install your phone
Before using the handset, the batteries
have to be installed and fully charged.
Warning
When the batteries are inserted for the
first time, the word INITIAL will be
displayed on the handset. The unit will
not be able to start normally due to the
low battery. Charge your handset for a
few minutes before it can start normally.

risk of battery leakage if you use alkaline
batteries or other battery types.
Slide out the battery cover.
Place the batteries in the correct
polarity as indicated and replace the
cover.
3.2.2 Charge battery
Warning
The handset must be charged for at least 24
hours before using it for the first time.
When the battery level becomes low, the
low battery sensor alerts you by sounding an
audible tone and blinking the battery icon.
If the battery level becomes exceedingly
low, the phone automatically switches off
shortly after the alert and any function in
progress will not be saved.
Place the handset on the charging cradle
of the base station. A beep is emitted if
the handset is placed correctly.
The battery icon on the display
blinks during charge.
The battery icon becomes
steady when the handset is fully
charged.
Note
Optimal battery life is reached after 3
cycles of complete charging (over 15
hours) and discharging, allowing
approximately 12 hours of talk-time and
150 hours of stand-by time.
The indoor and outdoor range of the phone
is up to 50 metres and 300 metres
respectively. When the handset moves
beyond the operation range, the antenna
icon will blink.
Tip
When reaching the range limit and the
conversation becomes crackly, move
closer to the base.
3.3 Welcome mode
Before you first use your handset, you
need to configure it according to the
country of use. After charging it for a few
minutes, the word WELCOME appears in
various languages. Follow these steps to
configure your phone:
Note
Depending on your country, the
WELCOME screen may not appear. In this
case, you are not required to select your
country/operator/language settings.
You can still make outgoing calls or receive
incoming calls without first defining your
country selection. However, you cannot

Tip
Toll saver mode can save you the cost of a
long-distance call when you check your
messages remotely. If there are new
messages in your answering machine, the
outgoing message will start playing after 3
rings. If there are no new messages, the
outgoing message will be played after 5 rings.
Hence, if you want to check if you have any
messages without incurring call charges, you
can hang up the call after the 4th ring.
8.7.2 Remote Control Access
If you are far away from home and want
to check the messages on your answering
machine, you can make use of the remote
access feature to check your messages
using another phone. Once you dial your
home number from any other phone and
enter the remote access code*, you will
be able to obtain the messages on your
answering machine. The keypad on the
phone you use to dial acts like the
functions on your answering machine
where you can play or delete messages,
turn your answering machine on or off,
etc.
Note
This feature is deactivated by default.
* Remote access code (which is the same
as your Master PIN code) prevents any
unauthorised remote access of your
answering machine.
