WARNING  
Do not place your BT Mango in the  
bathroom or other humid areas.  
Location  
You need to place your BT Mango within 2 metres of the  
mains power socket and telephone socket so that the  
cables will reach.  
Handset range  
The BT Mango has a range of 300  
metres outdoors when there is a  
clear line of sight between the base  
and 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 Mango 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.  
Signal strength  
Setting up  
The  
icon on your handset  
indicates when you are in range.  
1. Plug the mains power cable into the socket marked  
on the underside of the base and plug the other end into  
the mains power wall socket and switch the power on.  
The green Power/In use light on the base comes on.  
When out of range of the base, the  
out-of-range tone will sound every  
minute. This tone is repeated until  
you move back into range.  
Which power adaptor?  
If you have purchased a multiple  
pack, you should use the larger  
mains power adaptor for the base.  
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.  
Only use the power and telephone  
cables supplied with the product.  
If you experience any problems, please call the Helpline on 0870 605 8047 or email [email protected]

Connecting to a switchboard  
This product is intended for use within the UK for  
connection to the public telephone network and

pulse dialling and timed break recall. If in doubt  
please consult your service provider.  
Inserting a pause  
With some switchboards, after dialling the access  
code you may have to wait for a moment while  
the switchboard picks up an outside line so you  
will need to enter a pause in the dialling  
sequence.

the telephone number.  
You may also need to enter a pause when storing  
international numbers or charge card numbers.

Exchange), contact your PBX supplier for further  
information. The recall function is set to timed  
break recall and is also used for BT Calling
