Please note that the lifespan of
rechargeable batteries depends on
how heavily they are used. However,
over time, their capacity to recharge
will begin to diminish and they will
eventually need replacing.
If you have a problem, the
following simple solutions may
provide the answer.
No display appears
Is the handset switched on?
The battery may be flat or dead.
Recharge or replace the battery.
No dial tone
Is the telephone line cord plugged
into the phone socket and the base
station?
If other handsets are registered on
the base, the outside line(s) may
already be in use. Wait until a line
becomes free and try again.
The base station name is flashing
on the display or you cannot link
up with the base station. Is the
handset registered with the base
station? To register the handset, see
page 31.
Is the mains power cable connected
at the base and switched on at the
wall socket?
Is the handset within range of a base
station to which it is registered?
Replacing handset batteries
After a time, you may find that the
handset batteries are running out of
charge more quickly. This is a
standard sign of wear and the
batteries will need replacing.
Recommended batteries should have
a power rating of 600m Ah 1.2V.
Batteries are available from the
Diverse Helpline
0845 790 8070 and
your local BT shop.
Use only AA size nickel cadmium or
nickel-metal hydride rechargeable
batteries in the handset. Any other
types may cause irreparable damage.
Do not immerse batteries in water
or throw them into fire, or dispose of
them with ordinary domestic refuse.
To charge the batteries, only use the
plug-in power supply station provided.
Please note: 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, and then ON again, it
will find the base station within a
few seconds.
BT accepts no responsibility for
damage caused to your Diverse 2011
handset by the use of non-NiCad
batteries.
