For the best reception
Try to avoid putting the telescopic
aerial near other electrical appliances,
fluorescent lights and large metallic
objects such as cookers, radiators and
garage doors as these may cause
interference and reduce the quality of
your calls.
8 Extend the base unit
telescopic aerial
Extend the base unit telescopic
aerial on your Freestyle 1200 (as
shown below) to ensure the best
possible signal and reception.
9 To wall mount your
product
(See ‘Wall mounting’, page 49.)
To plan the location of the base unit
Your Freestyle 1200 works by
sending and receiving radio signals
between the base unit and the handset.
The strength of the signal depends
on where you site the base unit
and how the aerial is deployed.
The higher the base unit is located,
the better. An upstairs room is ideal.
The following points should be
considered:
• It should be within easy reach of
a mains socket and a telephone
socket. A new-style telephone
socket is needed for this product.
If you do not have one, call us on
Freefone 0800 800 150.
• Try to avoid locations near
metallic obstructions or electrical
appliances, such as TV sets,
fridges, computers, fluorescent
lights, radiators, metal pipes and
metal window frames.
• The Freestyle 1200 can be wall
mounted by using the bracket
and screws supplied; see page 49.
