Hints and tips boxes

In this user guide, we’ve included helpful tips and

useful notes. They are shown in a grey box.

Introduction Your Freestyle 130 has

been designed for ease of use and made to the very high

standards set by BT.

We thank you for making the right

choice and expect that you will have

many years of quality service.

Please read the instructions carefully

before use and keep this user guide

for future reference.

For your records

Date of purchase:

Place of purchase:

Serial number:

(on the underside of the machine)

Purchase price:

For warranty purposes, proof of

purchase is required, so please keep

your receipt.

Emergency calls

The emergency services can be

contacted in the UK by dialling 999.

You may also dial 112, which is valid

in any country that is a member of the

European Community.

As the Freestyle 130 is a mains-

powered cordless telephone, in certain

situations you may not be able to make

an emergency call:

• If there is severe radio interference.

• If the handset batteries fail.

• If there is a power cut and there is no

back-up battery in the base unit.

If your Freestyle 130 is connected to a

PBX (switchboard), you may have to

dial an access number before 999 to

contact the emergency services.

Some switchboards cannot dial out

during a power failure.

Check that your Freestyle 130 is

complete. When you unpack, you

should have:

• Freestyle 130 handset.

• Freestyle 130 base unit with

telephone line cord attached.

• Mains power adaptor plug.

• Wall mounting bracket with

screws.

• Spare Quickdial directory label

Setting up Follow these steps to get your

Freestyle 130 ready for use.

Electrical storm warning

During periods of electrical storm,

you are advised to disconnect your

apparatus because damage may

occur.

2 If a fault occurs during the 12-month

warranty period and it is due to

accidental or wilful damage

(including lightning and electrical

damage), BT will not replace or

repair free of charge.

Important

As this product is rechargeable, it is

normal that a certain amount of heat

will be produced in its day-to-day

operation. While this is entirely safe,

we advise against placing this product

on antique, veneered or wooden

surfaces as damage may occur.

Plan where you will put your Freestyle

130.

• It should be within two metres of a

power socket and the phone socket.

• You need enough room for the base

unit’s telescopic aerial to be fully

extended.

• For the best operating conditions, try

to place the base unit away from

large metal objects and other

electrical appliances.

3 Insert battery in base

unit (for back-up only)

To fit the back-up battery, release

the retaining clips, lift off the

battery compartment cover and

insert one new PP3 alkaline battery

(not supplied) as shown in the

diagram above. Replace the battery

compartment cover.

A good quality, fresh battery should

last about six months. To ensure

constant battery back-up, replace it

every six months.

1 Handset aerial

Your Freestyle 130 uses a compact

aerial which does not pull out.

2 Check your telephone

wall socket

If you do not have a modern phone

socket, call BT on

Freefone 0800

800 150 and ask for an engineer to

come and fit the right socket within

two metres of a mains socket.

✖

If your Freestyle 130 is your only

phone, you should fit a back-up battery

in the base unit so that your phone can

always be used in emergencies.

Like all cordless phones, your Freestyle

130 handset will need charging for 24

hours before use.

Setting up

If the power fails, the back-up battery

will give you up to one hour talktime

or seven hours on standby.

Setting up

Warnings

Do not try to use any power supply

other than the one provided. This

may permanently damage your

Freestyle 130.

2 Your Freestyle 130 should not be

fitted in wet or damp conditions, for

example in a bathroom. Also, the

handset should not be left out in

the rain.

3 There is a slight chance that your

phone could be damaged by an

electrical storm. We recommend

that you unplug the base unit from

the mains during storms.

4 Plug the power cable

into the back of the base

unit

Plug the adaptor cable into the

socket on the back of your

Freestyle 130.

PHONE LINE

12V AC

5 Connect the base unit

three-pin adaptor to a

power socket

When the power is switched on at

the mains, the red

POWER light on

the base unit will light up.

POWER

6 Charge the handset

When you first use your Freestyle

130, the rechargeable battery in the

handset needs charging for 24 hours.

• Make sure you have connected

your Freestyle 130 to the mains

power supply; see steps 4 and 5.

• Place the handset on the base

unit, ensuring the contacts are

touching. The red

CHARGING light

comes on.

• The CHARGING light remains

on while the handset is on the

base unit.

• When sufficiently charged for use,

the

CHARGING light turns green.

Mains power adaptor

The Freestyle 130 must only be used

with the adaptor supplied.

Using any other adaptor will result in

non-compliance with EN60950:1992,

and will invalidate the approval given

to this apparatus.

Setting up

7 Plug the phone into the

BT socket

You can now use the phone, store

numbers in the memory and

change some of the settings as

desired.

As a rule, placing the handset on

the base unit overnight will keep

the battery fully charged for all

normal use.

Battery care

The battery cannot be overcharged.

However, leaving the handset on the

base unit all the time can deteriorate a

rechargeable battery. To get the longest

possible life from your battery, take the

handset off the base unit for a few

hours each day.

When fully charged and in good

condition, the handset battery will

provide up to 5 hours continuous talk

time or 72 hours standby.

If the handset battery is running low,

the BATT LOW light will flash every

10-15 seconds.

If you are making a call and the

handset battery is running low, the

phone will beep every 10-15 seconds.

Place the handset on the base unit to

recharge.

BATT

LOW

Automatic Quickcharge

When the handset batteries start to

run low, your Freestyle 130 will

automatically switch to Quickcharge

when you place the handset on the

base unit.

Quickcharge is indicated by a red

CHARGING light

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 130 (as

shown below) to ensure the best

possible signal and reception.

9 To wall mount your

product

(See ‘Wall mounting’, page 34.)

To plan the location of the base unit

Your Freestyle 130 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 130 can be wall

mounted by using the bracket

and screws supplied; see page 34.

Official approval

Your Freestyle 130 is tested and

approved for connection to public

networks, provided that it is used in

accordance with the guidelines in

this user guide.

You may connect it:

• To direct exchange lines.

• To extensions with new plug and

socket arrangements provided

with these direct exchange lines.

• To compatible switchboards.

You may NOT connect it:

• To shared service (party) lines.

• As an extension to a payphone.

Approval for use

The base unit is intended for use

when powered from the 12V AC

mains adaptor supplied, which

conforms to EN60950. Any other

usage will invalidate the approval

Technical information

This phone is designed for UK use only.

Using it abroad may violate local

radio laws.

given to this apparatus if, as a

result, it ceases to comply with

EN60950.

Call security

Your Freestyle 130 has its own

digital security code that prevents

other cordless phone owners from

using your phone line. This ensures

that you are charged only for calls

using your phone. However, all

approved cordless phones use radio

signals to communicate between the

base unit and cordless handset units.

It is therefore possible that your

conversations could be overheard by

other people, on their cordless

phones, or on ordinary radios that

use the same radio frequencies.

As this problem applies equally to

all similar cordless phones currently

available in the UK, call privacy

cannot be guaranteed. However, the

security coding prevents

unauthorised use of your line.

You may find that your Freestyle

130 picks up conversations from

other cordless phones being used

nearby. If you experience this type

of interference try changing

channels using the

CHANNEL

SEEKER button on the handset.

Transmission frequencies

This cordless telephone has been

designed to operate on radio

frequencies which have been

assigned to the exclusive use of

cordless telephones. As the use of

cordless telephones becomes more

widespread, the quality of service

obtained from this apparatus may

lessen.

Transmission frequencies of

available channels:

Ringer Equivalence Number (REN)

Although you may have any

number of sockets, it is important

to limit the number of telephones

and other items of apparatus

connected to the line by those

sockets, to ensure that each

telephone will ring. Every

telephone or item of apparatus has

a Ringer Equivalence Number

(REN). In most cases a standard

line should provide enough current

for two or more telephones or items

of apparatus, if the REN's add up to

no more than 4.

Freestyle 130 has a REN of 1. Any

telephone provided by BT may be

assumed to have a REN of 1 unless

otherwise stated on the base unit.

Even where the number of

telephones has been limited, there is

no guarantee that different types of

telephone on the same line will ring.

Safety advice

• Don’t use your Freestyle 130 in

the open air during

thunderstorms. Unplug it from

the telephone line and the mains

socket when there are storms in

your area.

• Don’t use your Freestyle 130

outdoors in the rain, or handle it

with wet hands.

power has only been disconnected

momentarily.

Care of rechargeable battery

pack

• When you first install the

Freestyle 130, or replace the

battery pack, the handset must be

fully charged for 24 hours before

use.

• To maintain optimum charge and

battery condition, the handset

should be allowed to fully

discharge about every four months.

• Dispose of Ni-Cad battery packs

safely.

Do not puncture or burn them.

They contain toxic materials

which could cause injury.

General cleaning

Clean the cabinet of the handset

and the base unit with a soft cloth

slightly dampened with a mild

solution of water and detergent.

Charging contacts should be

cleaned with a dry cloth or for

heavy soiling a pencil eraser can be

used.

• Do not clean with a wet cloth.

• Do not clean with abrasive

materials or solvents as these

may damage the unit.

• Do not spray aerosol cleaners

onto the base unit or handset.
