Location
The BT Studio 1100 has a range
of 300 metres outdoors when there
is a clear line of sight between the
base and the handset. When there
is no clear line of sight between the
base and the handset, e.g. base
indoors and handset either indoors
or outdoors, the range could be
reduced to 50 metres. Thick stone
walls can severely affect the range.
You need to place your BT Studio 1100 close enough to
a mains power and telephone socket so that the cables
will reach.
The strength of the handset signal depends on where
you site the base. Make sure it is at least 1 metre away
from other electrical appliances to avoid interference.
Signal strength
The icon on your handset
indicates when you are in range.
When it flashes, you are out of
range.
Setting up the base and handset
1. Plug the power adaptor and telephone cable into the
back of the base.
When you move out of range of
the base, you will hear the out of
range tone. This tone is repeated
until you move back into range.
IMPORTANT
The base station must be plugged
into the mains power socket at all
times.
Do not connect the telephone line
until the handset is fully charged.

2. Plug the power adaptor into the mains wall socket and
switch the power on. When connected correctly, the

base must remain plugged in to
the mains and switched on at all
times.
Note that new batteries do not
reach full capacity until they have
been in normal use for several
days.
