Package contents
The package contains the following items:
VT6221
➭ 1 Base station
➭ 1 Telephone line cord
➭ 1 AC power adapter
➭ 1 Handset
➭ 2 Dowels/2 screws
➭ 2 Rechargeable batteries
➭ 1 English user manual and 1 Chinese user manual
Location
To obtain the best possible range, we recommend positioning the telephone in a location
central to your sphere of activity. Avoid positioning the telephone in niches, recesses and
behind steel doors.
The maximum range between the base station and handset is approximately 300 meters.
Depending on the surrounding conditions as well as spatial and structural factors, the
range may be smaller. The indoor range is normally smaller than outdoors. Depending on
the structural surroundings, radio dead spots may occur even within the range due to
digital transmission in the frequency range used. In this case the transmission quality may
be reduced through the increased incidence of short breaks in transmission. Normal
transmission quality will be resumed if you move slightly out of the radio dead spot.
When the range is exceeded, the connection will be broken unless you move back into
range within ten seconds.
To avoid radio signal interference from other electronic equipment, we recommend that
the base station/charging bay and handset are situated at the greatest possible distance
(minimum 1 meter) from other equipment.

Setting up the telephone
Setting up the base station
➭ Do not expose the base stationto direct sunlight.
Protect the base station against moisture. Do not position the telephone in room
exposed to condensation, corrosive steam or excessive dust. Condensation can
occur in cellars, garages, consevratories or sheds.
The ambient temperature must be between 5 °C and 40 °C.
Position the base station in a clean, dry and well-aired location. Choose a
place which is stable, even and not subject to vibrations.
To avoid mutual interference, do not position the base station in the immediate
vicinity of electronic equipment such as hi-fi systems, office equipment or microwave
ovens. Avoid positioning the telephone near heat sources such as heating elements or
near obstacles such as metal doors, thick walls, niches and cupboards.
The base station does not have a mains switch. For this reason the socket
to which it is connected must be easy to access.
