Do not place your BT Stratus 1500 in the
bathroom or other humid areas.
The BT Stratus 1500 has a range of 300 metres
outdoors when there is a clear line of sight
between the base and handset. Any obstruction
between the base and handset will reduce the
range signicantly. With the base indoors and
handset either indoors or outdoors, the range will
normally be up to 50 metres. Thick stone walls
can severely affect the range.
The
icon on your handset indicates when you
are in range. If moving out of range of the base,
the range indicator will ash. If you go out of
range, any call you are on will be lost.
The base station must be plugged into the mains
power socket at all times.
Do not connect the telephone line until the
handset is fully charged.
Only use the power and telephone cables
supplied with the product.
Location
Place your BT Stratus 1500 within 2 metres of the mains power socket and
telephone socket so that the cables will reach. Make sure it is at least 1 metre away
from other electrical appliances to avoid interference.
Your BT Stratus 1500 works by sending radio signals between the handset and
base. The strength of the signal depends on where you site the base. Putting it as
high as possible ensures the best signal.
Setting up
1. Plug the mains power adaptor (item code 039956) into the socket marked
on the underside of the base and plug the other end into the mains power wall
socket and switch the power on. You can place the cable behind the retaining
clip to prevent the plug being accidentally pulled from the socket.
The base indicator lights up. The answering machine is switched on.
