ADDITIONAL OPERATING TIPS
If the handset is moved to a point where
the base and handset can no longer
communicate, the handset will make a
quick series of beeps to signal Out of
Range.
OUT OF RANGE WHEN PHONE IS
ON
If you are presently engaged in a phone
conversation move closer to the base.
If the base unit does not communicate
with the handset within 25 seconds of
losing contact, it will automatically
hang up.
OUT OF RANGE WHEN PHONE IS
OFF
If the phone is OFF, the handset and
base still monitor each other to make
sure that they can communicate. If the
handset is moved out of range, the
handset will make a series of beeps,
and then the PHONE and MUTE/
LO.BATT LEDS will flash continually.
The handset will re-link with the base
automatically once it is brought back
within range. The unit will then be able
to receive and place calls.
When the base unit is unplugged from
the power supply, the handset will give
the Out of Range warning beep. Plug
the base in again and this will stop.
NOISE OR INTERFERENCE
Your VTech VT1901 cordless telephone
has auto-channel scan circuitry which
will detect excess noise and change
the channel of the phone to reduce it.
This is done automatically.
Since the VTech VT1901 is a fully
digital phone, it does not suffer from
noise associated with regular cordless
phones. At times you may experience
occasional “drop outs”, especially at
the extreme edges of the phone’s
range. Simply move closer to the base
unit and this will disappear.
AUTOMATIC SECURITY CODING
Your VTech VT1901 phone is
programmed with a digital security
code, which is factory set from 16.8
million possible codes. This unique
security code allows your handset and
base to recognize each other, and
minimizes the possibility of another
cordless phone using your telephone
line.
