Calling SKYPE Contact

Low battery warning

If your phone is almost out of battery during a call, it will sound an alert tone. Place your phone on the charger for charging as soon as possible or it would

turn off when it is out of battery. Placing the phone on the charger for charging will end the current call.

Out of range warning

If you move too far away from the base unit during a call, your phone will sound an alert tone, and Base/Handset Link icon will flash.

If the handset cannot find the base in 30 minutes, it will automatically turn itself off and user will have to manually turn it on again.

Contact List

The contact list shows the SKYPE contact list of the user who is currently login to SKYPE on the PC. The icon on the left of each entry shows the online status

of the contact. If the contact list is not obtained (i.e. user not login), UNAVAILABLE will be returned.

Changing user status

You can also change your online status on the handset. Refer to section 8 for instruction on how to change online status.
