Installing your DECT 221/225

1. Connect the output plug of the base adapter to the adapter socket on
the back of the base unit and the base adapter to the wall mains supply.
A beep indicates that the phone is properly plugged (DECT 225 only).
2. Connect the telephone line cord to the phone socket on the back of the
base unit and to the wall phone socket.
3. If you have bought a multi-pack product, each extra handset comes with
a charger and a charger adapter. Connect the output plug of the charger
adapter to the adapter socket on the bottom of the charger. Connect
the charger adapter to the wall mains supply.
4. Place 2 rechargeable NiMH AAA batteries (included), in correct
polarities, into the battery compartment on the handset.
Note: the warranty shall not apply to the batteries and any other
components within lifetime and wear.
5. Slide the battery door rmly into place.
6. Place the handset on the base unit or the charger and let the batteries continuously charge for 24 hours before
using. A beep indicates that the handset is properly placed on the base unit or the charger. The handset may take
some time to power up and it may get warm during the initial charge. This is normal.

Charging the handset

An empty battery icon indicates the batteries need recharging. Place the handset on the base unit or the charger
to recharge the batteries. A handset reaching a very low battery voltage level will go into sleep mode, displaying
lOW BATT on the screen.
Get into the habit of putting the handset on the base unit or the charger to charge when it is not in use to ensure the
handset is always fully charged.
