Important note emergency calls
The iDECT X1i is not designed for making emergency calls if the mains power fails. So you should make alternative arrangements for access to Emergency Services. (This means that you should also have a basic phone, that does not need mains power, connected to your line so that you can make calls during a power failure.)

If you need help

The Help Line is available from 9.00 am to 5.00 pm, Monday to Friday, on 9677 Calls are charged at Local Call rate.
Unpacking your iDECT X1i system
In the box are: the cordless handset (up to four, depending on which iDECT X1i system youve bought) the base unit two batteries and a battery compartment cover for each handset a telephone line cable for the base unit a mains power lead and adapter for the base unit up to three charger pods, each with a separate mains power lead and adapter, for multi-handset systems Keep the packaging materials in a safe place in case you later need to transport the unit. Keep your sales (till) receipt, which is your guarantee. Before you can use the handset to make calls youll need to fit and fully charge the batteries, as described on pages 5 and 6. Please read the notes on page 4 before you install the base unit.

To register to a different brand of base unit
Your iDECT X1i can be registered to any GAPcompatible base unit; or your can register other GAPcompatible handsets to your iDECT X1i base unit. But we do not guarantee that all features or display messages will be available using other manufacturers equipment. 1 Follow the instructions in the base units User Guide to put the base unit into registration mode (for example, step 7 on page 58). 2 Follow the instructions in the handsets User Guide to register the handset (for example, steps 1 to 5 on page 58). If you need to enter a PIN for the base unit, refer to the base units User Guide.

ALWAYS check first that:

The iDECT X1i must be serviced by trained engineers. NEVER attempt any repairs or adjustments yourself you could make the problem worse and invalidate the Guarantee.
you have followed all the steps listed on pages 5 to 7 to install and set up your iDECT X1i all connectors are firmly inserted in their sockets mains power is switched on at the socket the handsets batteries are correctly and securely installed, and are not run down

Everyday use

I cannot make If the handsets display is blank, it may be switched off. or answer calls. Press the HANG UP button to switch it back on. Check that the base units mains power adapter is plugged in and power is switched on. The base unit needs mains power for normal operation of the phone not just for charging the batteries. Make sure youre using the telephone line cable that was supplied with your iDECT X1i. Other telephone line cables might not work. Move the handset closer to the base unit. Check the Battery Level symbol on the display. If its low, replace the handset on the base unit or charger pod to recharge the batteries. If auto-answer is turned off (page 47), you need to press any button (except HANG UP) on the handset to answer an incoming call. Turn auto-answer on if you want to answer calls by simply lifting the handset from the base unit or charger pod. Switch off power at the mains socket, wait for a few seconds and then switch back on. This may help.

The Caller Display feature isnt working.
When I try to make a call, I hear Busy tone. The volume in the earpiece is low when Im on a call.
Make sure youre holding the earpiece correctly over your ear. Adjust the volume using the or button.

I cant transfer a call. Make sure the other handset is in range of the base unit. Make sure youre dialling the correct number for the other handset (1 to 6, or for all registered handsets).

The answering machine

The machine wont record messages. Make sure the answering machine is switched on. The machines memory may be full. Delete some messages to make room for new ones. Check that outgoing message OGM1 is selected; with OGM2 selected, callers cant leave messages. I cant switch the machine on. I cant hear my messages being played back. Remote operation doesnt work. The machines memory may be full. Delete some or all recorded messages (see page 36), then try again to switch on. Use the or button on the handset, to adjust the volume in the earpiece or speakerphone.
Make sure youre using the correct remote PIN (page 41). Check that youre using a tone-dialling phone. Some cordless or mobile phones dont generate continuous tones, so arent suitable for remote operation.

Batteries

The handsets batteries are running low within an hour or two. Before you first used the handset, you should have left it on the base unit or charger pod for up to 15 hours to charge the batteries fully. You may need to replace the batteries (see below).
Clean the battery charging contacts on the base unit with a dry cloth. Check the connections between the base unit and the mains power socket. I try to recharge the batteries, but I still get a warning that they are low. You need to replace the batteries. To find out how to obtain replacements, call 9677, between 9.00 am and 5.00 pm, Monday to Friday. Dispose of used batteries safely never burn them, or put them where they could get punctured. ALWAYS use the batteries supplied with your iDECT X1i other batteries may burst, causing damage.

PBX use

You may need to change the recall signal length from The Recall function doesnt its default of 100 ms. Consult your PBX documentation for help if necessary. To change the recall setting, use seem to work. the BASE SETTING menu (page 52). Last Number Redial and/or memory dialling dont work on a PBX. When you first make a call, after keying in the outside line access code (e.g. 9), press and hold the Last Number Redial button until a P appears on the display. This inserts a pause between the access code and the telephone number. You should later be able to redial the number. When storing numbers in memory, you can include the outside line access code (e.g. 9) with each number. If your PBX requires you to wait for a second Dial tone before dialling the telephone number, press and hold the Last Number Redial button for a pause between the access code and the number.

If the fault persists

Disconnect all other instruments connected to the same line as the iDECT X1i and see whether you can make a call. Disconnect the base unit from the telephone line and plug a different phone into the master telephone socket. Try making a call. If this works, the line is OK. If the call does not work, and you are using a two-way socket adapter, remove it and plug a telephone directly into the socket. If the call now works, the adapter may be faulty. If you cannot make a call, the fault may be on the exchange line. Contact the service provider (the BT engineers on 151, or your cable company). If you still cannot identify the cause of the problem, contact the Help Line on 9677.
