Battery Care

Batteries cannot be overcharged. However, leaving

the handset on the base unit all the time can

deteriorate rechargeable batteries. To get the longest possible life from your batteries, take the handset off the base for a few hours each day.

Plug your Freestyle 1050 into the

7 phone socket

Fully extend the telescopic aerial

8on the base unit

For the best reception

Try to avoid putting the telescopic aerial near other electrical appliances, fluorescent lights and large metallic objects such as cookers, radiators and garage doors as these may cause interference and reduce the quality of your calls.

To plan the location of the

9base unit

Your Freestyle 1050 works by sending and receiving radio signals between the base unit and the handset.

The strength of the signal depends on where you site the base unit and how the aerial is deployed.

The higher the base unit is located, the better. An upstairs room is ideal. The following points should be considered:

•It should be within easy reach of a mains socket and a telephone socket. A new-style telephone socket is needed for this product. If you do not have one, call us on Freefone 0800 800 150.

•Try to avoid locations near metallic obstructions or electrical appliances, such as TV sets, fridges, computers, fluorescent lights, radiators, metal pipes and metal window frames.

•The Freestyle 1050 can be wall mounted by using the bracket and screws supplied; see page 34.
