The symbol           in the display indicates when it is time to recharge the batteries. The 

indicator is divided into segments, which disappear one by one as the battery charge 

decreases. When the battery is running low,           is displayed and a warning tone 

sounds. If the handset is not recharged at this time, the phone will cease to function 

until it is recharged.

Press and hold

 for a few seconds to turn the handset on or off.

When the handset is turned off, no calls can be made or received. The handset 

is designed to be always turned on, i.e. it is not necessary to turn it off overnight. 

However, we recommend turning the handset off if it is not to be used for a prolonged 

period of time, e.g. during a holiday. If the batteries run low, the handset will turn off.

The range of the telephone varies depending on different factors in the surrounding 

enviroment. Radio radio waves transmitting the call may be hindered by obstructions 

or signal reflections that can reduce range.

Specified ranges require unobstructed transmission between tha handset and base unit.

In such ideal conditions the telephones range can be up to 300 metres.

In densly populated areas, houses, apartments etc the range will be reduced. Try to get 

the best range by relocating the base unit, the ideal location is a high and unbostructed 

place.

Out-of-range warning

If the handset is carried to far from the base unit during a call, a warning tone

will be heard from the handset. If the handset is not moved closer to the base unit 

within a few seconds the call will be cut off.
