Safety Warnings
Read the following safety warnings carefully before using your cell phone.
This equipment is intended for use with power supplied from supplied battery
charger(s) and/or power supply unit(s). Other usage will invalidate any
certication given to this apparatus and may be dangerous.
Switch off your phone when in an aircraft. The use of wireless phones in an
aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, disrupt cellular
networks, and may be illegal. Failure to observe this instruction may lead to
suspension or denial of phone services to the offender, legal action or both.
Do not use the phone or phone equipment when at a refueling point.
Observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical
plants, or where blasting operations are in progress.
The use of the Alert device to operate a vehicle’s lights or horn on public roads is

A.5 FAQ
This section provides solutions to problems that may occur or questions commonly
encountered during the installation and operation of the ASUS AiGuru S2 Wireless
Skype Phone. Read the description below to solve your problems. If you cannot nd
an answer here, check the ASUS contact information at the end of the user manual.
Q1. Why is there no dial tone when I press the Talk & Recall button?
A1. Either the Wireless Link USB dongle is not properly connected to the PC, the
handset is too far from the Wireless Link USB dongle, or the battery is low (low
battery icon is displayed).
• Check the connections.
• Move closer to the Wireless Link USB Dongle unit.
• Charge the battery.
• If there is something wrong with Skype Program itself, please restart Skype.
Q2. Why does the screen show “WiFi Disconnect”?
A2. When the phone is out of the Wireless Link USB dongle’s operating range, the
phone will keep accessing its signal source for 30 seconds. If detecting the
signal fails, the screen shows the message “WiFi Disconnect” and the goes
into sleep mode.
To regain wireless access, move the handset closer to the Wireless Link USB
dongle and press any key on the handset for access retrieval.
Q3. Why is the battery icon “empty” although the handset has been charged
for 24 hours?
A3. The handset might not be connected to the PC correctly. It is also possible that
the handset’s battery is defective.
• Contact your dealer to purchase a new rechargeable battery.
• Make sure the battery icon is scrolling. If it is not, the battery is not charging.
Q4. Why is there no symbol on the display?
A4. This could mean that the battery is not charged or the Phone Kit is not properly
connected.
• Verify that you have set up the Phone Kit properly.
A-18 Appendix: Reference information
• Charge the battery.
Q5. Why is the audio quality poor sometimes ? (crackles/echoes, etc.)
A5. There may be interference from nearby electrical appliances or the Wireless
Link USB dongle is installed in a room with thick walls. If this is the case, move
the PC to a different location. If the handset is too far from the Wireless Link
USB dongle, move the handset closer.
Q6. Why can I not hear the other party clearly? Why is the speaker too loud/
too quiet?
A6. The speaker volume on your PC or on the handset may be set too low. Adjust
the volume to get better effect.
Q7. Why does the phone not ring when a call comes in?
A7. The ringer may be too small to hear. Adjust the volume of the ringer.
Q8. Why does the contact list/user status return a “NO SERVICE” message?
A8. This may be caused by not starting or logging into Skype™ properly. Verify that
you are logged into Skype™ and the program is running properly.
Another cause may be that the AiGuru S2 Utility or Wireless Link USB
dongle driver has not been launched on the PC, or the dongle plug may be
disconnected. Verify that the AiGuru S2 Utility and Wireless Link USB dongle
driver are functioning properly and that the dongle plug is properly connected.
Also, verify that the PC is not in standby/hibernate mode.
Q9. Why can I not SkypeOut?
A9. If 00, + or 011 is omitted, enter 00, + (double press the asterisk key) or 011
before the number you are dialing. If your Skype™ account has too little or no
credit left, purchase more credits on the Skype™ website. The handset may
have lost its link. Verify that the handset has a link with the Wireless Link USB
dongle.
Q10. Why am I not getting any tone response from Skype™?
A10. Either the Skype™ or the PC application have not started, the USB dongle is
not plugged in, your PC is in standby/hibernate mode, or your other party is
ofine.
• Make sure both Skype™ and the PC application is/are started on the PC and
running properly.

• Make sure the phone is set up correctly.
• Wait for the remote party to be online.
Q11. Why can I not hear any sound from the phone while the Wireless Link
USB dongle is plugged in to the PC and the wireless setup is properly
established?
A11. When the Wireless Link USB dongle is plugged in to the USB port of your PC,

to Skype™ > Tools > Options > Sound Devices and make the following
settings:

Audio Out: Virtual Cable 2
Ringing: Virtual Cable 2
Q12. Why can I not hear any sound from the PC speakers for normal PC
operation while the Wireless Link USB Dongle is plugged in to the PC?

the setting of your PC audio by going to Control panel > Sound > Speech
and Audio Device > Sound and Audio Device > Audio. Check Only use
default devices.
Q13. What will I do if the phone is out of operating range? How come no signal
is detected?

phone will keep accessing its signal source for 30 seconds. If detecting the
signal fails, the screen shows the message “WiFi Disconnect” and then goes
