Cordless Telephone Operation

Preparing for Use
1. Place the HANDSET on the BASE UNIT for 12 hours.
2. After 12 hours, remove the HANDSET from the BASE UNIT.
Before you can use your cordless telephone, you must charge the HANDSET for
12 hours. Failure to do so will require more frequent charging of the BATTERY
PACK.
NOTE:
Depending on the frequency of use, once the HANDSET is fully charged, it remains
func-tional for approximately 6 hours of continuous use and approximately 6 days when the
HANDSET is off the BASE UNIT in STANDBY mode.
Placing Calls
1. Press the TALK button. The HANDSET IN
USE LED indicator and the BASE UNIT IN
USE/CHARGE LED indicator will light up.
2. Listen for a dial tone.
3. Dial the phone number.
4. When you have finished your call, either
press the TALK button or place the HAND-
SET on the BASE UNIT. The HANDSET IN
USE LED indicator will turn off and the
BASE UNIT IN USE/CHARGE LED will light
up to indicate that the HANDSET is
charging.
NOTES:
1. During a telephone conversation, press the VOL (VOLUME) button to select the
desired HANDSET receiver volume level from MAXIMUM, HIGH, MEDIUM, or LOW.
Press the (+) button to increase, or press the (-) button to decrease the volume level.
A double “beep” sound will be heard when the (+) or (-) button is pressed further after
the MAXIMUM or the LOW volume level.
2. The BASE UNIT does not have a ringer and does not ring when receiving an incoming
call.
3. If you are too far away from the BASE UNIT, the HANDSET emits “beep” sounds to warn
you that the background noise level is too high for proper communication between the
HANDSET and the BASE UNIT. When you hear this sound, you should move closer to
the BASE UNIT to reduce the noise level. Otherwise, the call will automatically cut off.
