INSTALLING HANDSET BATTERIES
The handset uses a rechargeable 600 mAh 3.6V (AA) Ni-Cd (Nickel
Cadmium) battery pack (SANIK, type no. 3SN-AA60-S-J1F).
To insert the handset battery pack:

compartment, ensuring
the red-black wire
mini-connector is plugged into
the corresponding socket.
3. Slide the cover back until it clicks firmly into place.
WARNING: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
BATTERY SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
•
Do not burn, disassemble, mutilate, or puncture. Like other batteries of
this type toxic materials could be released which can cause injury.
•
•
•
Cadmium is a chemical recognized by the State of California to cause cancer.
Do not short-circuit the battery.
Do not place the rechargeable nickel-cadmium battery used in this
equipment in any charger other than the one designed to charge this
battery as specified in the user manual.
•
To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury, use only the battery listed in
the User Manual.
12
•
Rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium batteries must be recycled or disposed
of properly.
•
•
Keep batteries out of the reach of children.
Remove batteries if storing over 30 days.
Rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium Batteries Must Be
Recycled or Disposed of Properly
NOTE: The RBRC seal on the battery used in your
KROWN product indicates that we are participating
in a program to collect and recycle Nickel Cadmium
batteries throughout the United States. Please call
1-800-8-BATTERY for information or contact your local
recycling center. RBRC(R) is a registered trademark of the Rechargeable
Battery Recycling Corporation.
CHARGING HANDSET BATTERIES

WALL-MOUNT THE BASE UNIT
INITIALIZATION AND STANDBY MODE
After inserting the battery (handset) and A/C power (base unit), both go to
standby mode directly. All previously saved settings are kept. During normal
operation, the handset’s display shows handset name / time and the base
unit LED is off.
NOTE: Do not adjust volume by pressing Amplify directly after initialization.
HANDSET RECEPTION
When outdoors, the handset can be used up to 300 meters (approx. 980
feet) away from the base unit. When indoors, the handset can be used up
to 50 meters (approx. ꢀ60 feet) from the base unit. An out-of-range tone is
generated if the handset is nearly out of range. If the handset connection is
completely lost, the base station automatically goes on-hook and “OUT OF
RANGE” is displayed on the LCD.
During outdoor and indoor use, the effective range is dependent upon
the surrounding environment, i.e., obstacles or interference that may
affect transmission. Interference from electrical appliances such as a TV,
microwave or mobile phone should be avoided.
NOTE: Due to radio interference, occasional loss of synchronization
between the handset and base unit may occur. If this happens the
base unit will quickly switch to another channel automatically to restore
synchronization.
