Help
Your Diverse 2010 has been designed to
be easy to use. If you should experience
a problem, please check the following
points before calling the Diverse Helpdesk.
Emergency calls
The emergency services can be contacted in
the UK by dialling 999, or 112 in any
country that is a member of the European
Community.
If your Diverse 2010 is connected to a
switchboard, you may have to dial an access
number before 999 to contact the emergency
services. Some switchboards cannot dial out
during a power failure.
Under ideal conditions, the handset
batteries should give about 7 hours
talktime or 60 hours standby on a single
charge (both standby and talk time is
reduced for the Diverse 2000 Executive
Handset to approximately 50 hours standby
and 6 hours talktime). However, new
NiCad batteries do not reach their full
capacity until they have been in normal use
for several days.
Please note that the lifespan of NiCad
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.
Battery performance
After charging your Diverse 2010 for the
first time, subsequent charging time for the
handset batteries is approximately 4-5 hours.
Batteries and case may become warm
during charging. This is normal and not
dangerous.
Fully charged batteries do not
indicate full power when put into
a handset
When you replace 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.
Use only AA size, approved rechargeable
batteries in the handset. Any other types
may cause irreparable damage. Never use
conventional alkaline batteries. For a list of
approved batteries, see page 5. Batteries
are available from the Diverse Helpline on
0345 908070 or your local BT shop.
Do not immerse batteries in water or throw
them into fire, or dispose of them with
ordinary domestic refuse. To charge the
batteries place the handset on its base station.
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.
