Getting started  
WARNING  
Do not place your BT Glide in the  
bathroom or other humid areas.  
Location  
You need to place your BT Glide within 2 metres of  
a mains power and telephone socket so that the  
cables will reach.  
Handset range  
The BT Glide has a range of  
300 metres outdoors when  
there is a clear line of sight  
between the base and the  
handset. Any obstruction  
between the base and handset  
will reduce the range  
significantly. With the base  
indoors and handset either  
indoors or outdoors, the range  
will normally be up to 50  
metres. Thick stone walls can  
severely affect the range.  
Make sure it is at least 1 metre away from other  
electrical appliances to avoid interference.  
Your BT Glide works by sending radio signals  
between the handset and base. The strength of the  
signal depends on where you site the base. Putting  
it as high as possible ensures the best signal.  
Setting up  
1. Plug the mains power cable into the socket marked  
on the underside of the base. The Power light  
comes on.  
Signal strength  
When you are out of range of  
the BT Glide base, you will hear  
a warning beep in the earpiece.  
Power  
adaptor  
cable  
IMPORTANT  
Do not connect the telephone  
line until the handset is fully  
charged for 24 hours. The base  
must be plugged into the mains  
power at all times.  
Route the cable through the channel on the base.  
Plug the other end of the adaptor into the wall  
socket and switch the power on.  
If you experience any problems, please call the Helpline on 0870 605 8047

2. Remove the battery guard  
tab from the bottom of the  
handset.  
Battery low warning  
The handset battery symbol has  
only one red bar left and you  
will hear a warning beep every  
5 minutes. Start recharging  
your handset right away or the  
handset will shut down.  
Battery low  
Battery full  
Battery guard tab  
When charging, the battery  
symbol is blue and it scrolls.  
3. Place the handset on the base to charge for at least  
24 hours. The charging light comes on. The handset  
is pre-registered to the base as BT Glide. The screen  
shows the standby display.  
When you place a handset with  
a completely flat battery on to  
the base, the charge light will  
come on but the handset will  
not start. You must wait up to  
10 minutes before the battery  
has enough charge for the  
handset to start.  
The charging light stays on while the handset is being  
charged. Once fully charged the light will go off.  
4. After 24 hours charging, plug one end of the  
telephone line cord into the socket marked  
on the base and the other end into the telephone  
line wall socket.  
Battery performance  
Running the battery right down  
at least once a week will help it  
last as long as possible.  
Only use the telephone line cord supplied.  
On a full charge, your BT Glide  
handset gives you up to  
7 hours talk time or up to  
72 hours standby.  
The charge capacity of a  
rechargeable battery will  
reduce with time as it wears  
out, giving the handset less  
talk/standby time. Eventually it  
will need to be replaced.  
Telephone  
line cord  
The battery and handset may  
become warm during charging.  
This is normal.  
Route the cable through the channel on the base.  
If you experience any problems, please call the Helpline on 0870 605 8047

Bluetooth® range  
Your BT Glide has built-in Bluetooth® wireless  
technology which makes it possible to connect  
your phone wirelessly with other Bluetooth devices.  
You can use your BT Glide with one Bluetooth  
enabled mobile phone and one Bluetooth headset.  
Bluetooth wireless technology  
provides a typical range of  
around 10 metres from the  
base, although this will vary  
depending on your  
environment.  
When pairing a Bluetooth  
headset, the distance from  
the base can be critical.  
Some headsets need to be  
0.5m away.  
Once a mobile phone or headset is paired with  
your BT Glide you can:  
use your Bluetooth headset to answer calls on your  
BT Glide  
copy your mobile directory to the BT Glide  
send and receive vCards with any Bluetooth device  
– it does not have to be paired with the BT Glide.  
Pairing  
IMPORTANT  
Pairing is the process for connecting two Bluetooth  
enabled devices together, for example a mobile  
phone or Bluetooth headset to your BT Glide.  
You must complete the pairing procedure before  
the two devices can be used together. Pairing only  
has to be completed once for each mobile phone  
or Bluetooth headset.  
Familiarise yourself with the  
pairing instructions before  
attempting this process.

Text messaging  
IMPORTANT  
Welcome to the BT Text Service on your BT Glide.  
The service is provided by BT. Your BT Glide can  
send and receive text messages from participating  
mobile networks and compatible landline  
telephones in the UK.  
You must subscribe to your  
Network Provider’s Caller  
Display service so that you can  
use text messaging. A quarterly  
fee may be payable, please  
contact your network provider  
for more details.  
The fixed line Text service is provided under BT’s  
terms and conditions for telephone service. These  
can be found by visiting the BT.com website at:  
When you are using text  
messaging you must not  
withhold your telephone  
number or the service will not  
allow you to connect.  
Subscribe to the text messaging service  
Messages to non-compatible  
phones  
When you send your first text message from your  
BT Glide you will automatically be registered for  
the service.  
You may also send messages to  
landline phones that are NOT  
TEXT compatible. Messages to  
non-compatible lines will be  
connected to voice text and  
delivered in spoken words to  
the telephone as a call. Please  
note that the conversion can  
translate common  
abbreviations and emoticons  
etc, but to ensure maximum  
clarity of message delivery,  
abbreviations etc should be  
used sparingly.  
On receipt of your first text through the service, the  
system will send you a welcome text message back.  
You may also register by sending the word  
‘Register’ to 00000 upon which you will receive a  
confirmation message.

shown for the relevant game:  
Mars Lander  
The player has to land a space probe falling to the surface of the planet, at the  
start a ‘far away’ view is seen where the landing sights are shown as green dots  
and there is very little detail of the surface (1/10th of the final landing stage) as  
the probe falls and reaches the bottom part of the screen the game pauses and  
the camera ‘zooms’ in to a closer view showing more detail of the ground and  
the actual landing pad.  
The player needs to press  
to fire his retro engines in short bursts and press  
and to move the Lander left or right, both of these actions burns fuel and  
the player has only a limited supply, use it up too soon and the craft will fall too  
fast at the latter stages, use too little and the craft will be falling too quickly to  
slow down at the end.  
This is played against a clock and the best times and fuel usage is scored (also  
based on the hardness of the landing sight).

Games  
Apples & Pears  
The player is presented with a board filled with different types of fruit.  
The objective is to get 3, 4 or 5 fruits in a row, horizontally or vertically, the  
more fruits the higher the score.  
Use the navigation buttons to move the cursor around and highlight a fruit and  
press  
to select it. A second cursor will then appear which can be moved in  
the same way. Highlighting and selecting an adjacent fruit with this second  
cursor will switch the two.  
When 3, 4 or 5 fruits are in a row then they will disappear, the score is added to  
the total and new fruits fall in to fill the slots.  
A target score is presented for each level and when the player reaches that  
target the board is cleared and a new level starts with one extra type of fruit.  
The game starts with 4 fruits and progresses up to 10 fruits.  
The game ends when the timer runs out (the time is reset at the start of  
each level).  
Solitaire  
This is an implementation of the classic card game. The player is presented with a  
pack of cards face down, the top card is face up, there are 7 columns of cards, the  
first with only one card, the second with 2, the third with 3 and so on. There are 4  
empty piles across the screen where the player can place an Ace if available.  
The objective is to place the next card in the sequence on top of the last card  
on a pile in alternate colours (e.g. red, black, red, black, etc.) and going down in  
numeric value (King to Ace). From these piles the player must slowly build up  
the four empty piles with a sequence of cards in a particular ‘suit’, Hearts,  
Diamonds, Clubs or Spades starting with Ace, 1, 2, 3 and so on. Finally ending  
up with only four piles of the same suit cards in number order.

Games

Use the navigation button to move the cards around the screen.  
On the 7 piles:  
1. The next card must not be the same colour as the previous card.  
2. The next card must be the next lower number.  
3. The player can drag any number of these cards onto another pile, provided rules  
one and two are adhered to.  
On the 4 empty piles:  
1. The first card must be the Ace of a suit.  
2. The next card must be the next higher card.  
3. The next card must be in the same suit.  
The un-dealt cards:  
1. Should be turned over 3 cards at a time.  
2. On turning the last card the pile is ‘reset’.  
The game is won when the last card (King) is placed on one of the four piles.  
The game is lost when the player can no longer move.

emergency telephone calls when the power  
fails. Alternative arrangements should be  
made for access to emergency services.

The product may heat up when the battery  
pack is being recharged. This is normal.  
However, we recommend that you do not  
place the product on antique/ veneered  
wood to avoid damage.  
For the handset, use only Li-ion 3.7 V  
1150mAh battery packs. Never use other

Do not open the handset (except to replace  
the handset battery). This could expose you  
to high voltages or other risks. Contact the  
BT Glide Helpline on 0870 605 8047 for all  
repairs.

in water and do not use it in damp  
conditions, such as bathrooms.  
Radio signals transmitted between the  
handset and base may cause interference to  
hearing aids.  
Do not expose your product to fire,  
explosive or other hazardous conditions.  
It is recommended that advice from a qualified  
medical expert be sought before using this  
product in the vicinity of emergency/intensive  
care medical equipment.  
There is a slight chance that your phone  
could be damaged by an electrical storm.  
We recommend that you unplug the power  
adaptor and telephone line cord from the  
base for the duration of the storm.  
It is recommended that if you have a  
pacemaker fitted you check with a medical  
expert before using this product.

electrical equipment, eg. TV and radio sets,  
and computers if placed too close. It is  
recommended that you place your product at  
least 1 metre away from such appliances to  
minimise any risk of interference.
