Technical information

Official approval

Your Freestyle 90 is tested and approved for connection to public networks, provided it is used in accordance with the guidelines in this user guide.

You may connect it:

•To direct exchange lines.

•To extensions with new plug and socket arrangements provided with these direct exchange lines.

•To compatible switchboards.

You may NOT connect it:

•To shared service (party) lines.

•As an extension to a payphone.

This phone is designed for UK use only. Using it abroad may violate local radio laws.

Approval for use

The base unit is intended for use when powered from the 12V AC mains adaptor supplied, which conforms to EN60950. Any other usage will invalidate the approval

given to this apparatus if, as a result, it ceases to comply with EN60950.

Call security

Your Freestyle 90 has its own digital security code that prevents other cordless phone owners from using your phone line. This ensures that you are charged only for calls using your phone. However, all approved cordless phones use radio signals to communicate between the base unit and cordless handset units. It is therefore possible that your conversations could be overheard by other people, on their cordless phones, or on ordinary radios that use the same radio frequencies.

As this problem applies equally to all similar cordless phones currently available in the UK, call privacy cannot be guaranteed. However, the security coding prevents unauthorised use of your line.
