Installation
4
IMPORTANT:
Please make sure you completed the Handset battery
installation first, before you plug in the Base Adaptor.
1. Inserting the batteries
Open the battery compartment by sliding the cover down.
Insert two AAA batteries in the compartment, ensuring
correct polarity.
The handset does not work if the wrong
batteries are inserted. It is also possible that
the handset could be damaged as a result.
Replace the cover on the battery compartment
and slide it on until it locks in place. Place the handset in the
base or charging station. An acoustic acknowledgement is
issued and the charging indicator signals the charging process
has started. Allow the batteries to be charged for 14 hours
without interruption the first time they are charged. When
possible, only remove the handset from the station when the
charging process has been completed. This ensures optimum
operation.
2. Connecting the Base Station and
Power Plug
Connecting the plugs to the corresponding sockets in the base
station (they can not be connected incorrectly because the
sockets and plugs are designed prevent reverse poling). Lay
the cable under the telephone to the rear. Plug the telephone
line in the telephone connection socket. Insert the power plug
at the other end in the power outlet. The base station in now
ready to operate.
Only use the connection cable supplied.

# This feature is onl
y
a
pp
licable with more than one handset
3. Connecting the charging station #
Insert the power plug in the socket on the rear side of the
charging station. Insert the power plug at the other end in
the power outlet. The charging station is now ready to
operate.
The base station and charging station have
no power switch. Ensure that a Mains
power outlet is close by and that the power
plug is easy to access. Check that the
voltage specified on the power plug corresponds with
that supplied by local power network.
CAUTION:
Use only the ATLINKS power supply that
came with this unit. Using other power
supplies may damage the unit.
