Getting Started

Setup

As you register additional Handsets to the system, they will be assigned extension numbers
in the following order: 

HANDSET 2, HANDSET 3

, etc.

Whenever charged Handset battery cells are installed, the Handset will automatically
begin 

Searching for Base... 

(if previously registered), or it will prompt you to 

Enter

Base ID 

to register the new Handset.

Charging of the Handset Battery Cells

The Handset of your 

i 5867 

cordless telephone is powered by rechargeable battery cells

which  charge automatically whenever the Handset is in its Base Unit or charger.
Maximum talk time on fully charged cells is 8 hours, and maximum standby time is 5 days.

You should charge the battery cells for at least 12 hours when you first receive your
phone. 

You’ll know the battery cells need charging when:

• The low battery message is displayed:

• The Handset seems completely dead, the LCD is com-

pletely clear and does not activate when you press the
keys.

IMPORTANT:

1. Do not dispose of battery cells in a fire, they may

explode.

2. Do not open or mutilate the battery cells. Toxic substances may be released,

causing harm to the eyes and/or skin.

3. Be careful when handling battery cells in order to prevent an accidental short of

the charge contacts, potentially causing the battery cells to overheat.

4. Do not dispose of the battery cells into household garbage.

Connecting to Phone Line

Plug one end of the telephone line cord into the jack on the bottom of the Base Unit. Plug
the other end of this cord into the wall jack.

Checking for Dial Tone

After the battery cells are charged press 

ON 

on the Hand-

set. The phone icon 

 will appear on the Handset dis-

play, and you will hear dial tone. If not, see 

In Case of

Difficulty.
