Electrical storm warning

1During periods of electrical storm,

you are advised to disconnect your

apparatus because damage may

occur.

2If a fault occurs during the 12-month

warranty period and it is due to

accidental or wilful damage

(including lightning and electrical

damage), BT will not replace or

repair free of charge.

Important

As this product is rechargeable, it is

normal that a certain amount of heat

will be produced in its day-to-day

operation. While this is entirely safe,

we advise against placing this product

on antique, veneered or wooden

surfaces as damage may occur.

Plan where you will put your

Freestyle 1200.

•It should be within two metres of a

power socket and the phone socket.

•You need enough room for the base

unit’s telescopic aerial to be fully

extended.

•For the best operating conditions, try

to place the base unit away from

large metal objects and other

electrical appliances.
