Chapter 3: Getting Started
Before You Begin
To use Skype you will need an available ethernet port. If you have traditional phone service (landline), you will
also need an available telephone wall jack.
Getting Started with the Handset
To insert the batteries and charge them, follow these instructions:
1. Remove the cover of the battery compartment.
Figure 3-1: Handset’s Batteries
2. Insert the two NiMH rechargeable, AAA batteries (included). Make sure the polarities are correct. (The + and
- ends of the batteries should be in the + and - slots of the compartment.)
3. Slide the cover upward until it snaps into place.
4. Plug the charger’s power adapter into an electrical outlet. Place the handset on the charger. For the initial
charge, let the batteries charge for 14 hours before using the handset. This maximizes battery performance
and life.
NOTE: The handset may become warm during the initial charge.
NOTE: If the batteries are low, the handset may not power on for up to 15 minutes and will emit a
warning tone. Place the handset on the charger to recharge.

Registering the Handset
To make calls the handset must be registered to the base unit. This is preset. However, if you bought an extra
handset or de-registered a handset, you may see the message Unregistered on the phone’s LCD screen. To
register the handset when the Unregistered message has displayed:
1. Press Reg.
2. Press the middle button (PAGE) on the base station. When you release it, the lights will flash.
3. If asked, enter the System PIN (default: 0000). Use Clear to make a correction.
4. Press OK to confirm. The handset will start searching for the base station.
5. After successful registration, the signal strength icon will display steadily on the handset screen. If
registration failed, repeat these steps.
NOTE: Your base station can register up to 4 handsets. When 4 handsets are registered, the base
station memory becomes full and no further handsets can be registered to that base station.
Checking the Signal Strength
The signal icon displays the link status between the handset and base station. If the signal icon displays, the
handset and base station are communicating and calls can be made and received.
If you don’t see the Signal Strength icon, you may be too far from the base station. Move the handset closer to
the base station. If you are on a call and losing signal strength, you will hear warning tones, which gives you
time to move the handset and base station closer together.

Can I put a Skype call on hold and make a landline call on the same handset?

you want to put the current call on hold and make another outgoing call on the same line, press the Call key and
follow the instructions in “Chapter 4: Using the Dual-Mode Internet Telephony Kit.”
How can I add a contact or SkypeOut number to the contact list?

Safety precautions:
•
•
•
•
•
Do not allow the handset to come into contact with liquids or moisture.
Opening any part of the Dual-Mode Internet Telephony Kit, the handset, charger, or base station, could result in dangerous electrical shock.
Do not allow the charging contacts of the charger or the handset’s battery to come into contact with extraneous conductive materials.
Not recommended for use in an explosive environment or where warning signs prohibit the use.
Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the Cordless Dual-Mode Internet Telephony Kit.
Environmental care: Please remember to observe your local regulations regarding the disposal of your packaging materials, exhausted batteries and old
phone and, where possible, always recycle.
Because the phone works by sending radio signals between the base station and the handset, wearers of hearing aids may experience interference in the
form of a humming noise.
The Cordless Dual-Mode Internet Telephony Kit should not be used near intensive care medical equipment. Linksys recommends keeping the phone a
minimum of 6 inches away from pacemakers.
As the Cordless Dual-Mode Internet Telephony Kit can interfere with nearby electrical equipment, such as answering machines, televisions and radios, you
should position the base station at least one meter from such appliances.
Privacy of communications may not be ensured when using this telephone.

The base station and handset have been evaluated and found compliant in accordance with Industry Canada RSS-102 with respect to Canada’s Health
Code 6 for Exposure of Humans to RF Fields.
The highest SAR level measured for this phone is as follows:
Max. Head SAR - 0.153 W/kg
Max. Body SAR - 0.172 W/kg
The recommended limits are based on recommendations from the World Health Organizations (WHO) International Committee on Non Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP).
The Maximum allowable SAR as recommended by the ICNIRP limits is 2.0 W/kg based on 10 grams of tissue. However in the US, the recommended FCC limit
is 1.6 W/kg based on 1 gram of tissue.
This phone has been tested and found compliant with the belt clip provided with the product. The use of other type accessories not provided with the product
may not ensure compliance to the recommended RF exposure standards.
Additional information on SAR and RF Exposure can be obtained off the FCC website at www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety
There is no conclusive proof that these mobile phones are a health risk. The FDA and numerous researchers are continuing studies of RF radiation and health
issues. Additional information on this subject can be obtained from the FDA web site at www.fda.gov.
There are several suggested methods to reduce exposure for the user. Among those include the following:
1. Using a hands-free handset to increase the distance between the antenna and the head of the user,
2. Orienting the antenna away from the user.

Noise
Electrical pulse noise is present at one time or another. This is most intense during electrical storms. Certain kinds of electrical equipment, such as light
dimmers, fluorescent bulbs, motors, fans, etc., also generate pulse noise. Because radio frequencies are susceptible to this, you may on occasion hear pulse
noise through the USB base station. This is usually only a minor annoyance and should not be interpreted as a defect of the unit.
This telephone is not designed for making emergency telephone calls when the power fails. Make alternative arrangements for access to emergency
services.
