1. Getting started Location Important Do not place your D87 in the bathroom or other humid areas. Place your D87 base within reach of the AC power outlet and telephone wall jack. The socket-outlet should be installed near the equipment and should be easily accessible. Make sure the base is not placed too close to other electrical appliances to avoid interference. Your D87 works by sending radio signals between the handset and base. The strength of the signal depends on where you place the base.
Connecting the base 1. Plug the telephone line cord into the socket marked on the underside of the base and the other end of the line cord into the telephone line wall jack. 2. Plug the AC power jack into the socket marked on the underside of the base and plug the AC adaptor into the AC power outlet. Switch on the AC power. Installing and charging the handset 1. Remove the battery cover from the back of the handset and insert the rechargeable Ni-MH battery cells supplied.
Connecting the handset and charger cradle (for multi-pack only) If you have purchased a multiple pack, you will need to carry out this process for all the handsets and charger cradles. 1. Plug the AC power jack into the socket marked on the underside of the charger cradle and plug the power adaptor into the AC power outlet. 2. Remove the battery cover from the back of the handset and insert the 2 x AAA Ni-MH rechargeable batteries supplied.
Battery performance In ideal conditions, fully charged batteries should give up to 21 hours talk time or up to 240 hours standby time on a single charge.1 Note that new batteries do not reach their full capacity until they have been put to normal use for several days. To keep your batteries in the best condition, leave the handset off the base for a few hours at a time. Running the batteries right down at least once a week will help them last as long as possible.
