In the event of a power failure

During a power failure, if you have fitted fresh alkaline back-up battery in the base unit, your telephone will continue to work for up to one hour in use or seven hours on standby.

When power has been restored, you are advised to renew the back- up battery in the base unit, though this should not be necessary if the power has only been disconnected momentarily.

Care of rechargeable battery pack

•When you first install the Freestyle 130, or replace the battery pack, the handset must be fully charged for 24 hours before use.

•To maintain optimum charge and battery condition, the handset should be allowed to fully discharge about every four months.

•Dispose of Ni-Cad battery packs safely.

Do not puncture or burn them. They contain toxic materials which could cause injury.

General cleaning

Clean the cabinet of the handset and the base unit with a soft cloth slightly dampened with a mild solution of water and detergent. Charging contacts should be cleaned with a dry cloth or for heavy soiling a pencil eraser can be used.

•Do not clean with a wet cloth.

•Do not clean with abrasive materials or solvents as these may damage the unit.

•Do not spray aerosol cleaners onto the base unit or handset.

Extended periods of non-use

It is recommended that you:

•Disconnect the base unit from both mains supply and telephone line.

•Remove the back-up battery from the base unit and handset.

•When reconnecting, check that the CHARGING light on the base unit is on. Recharge the handset battery for 24 hours.
