Safety information  
General  
polish as this will damage the product. Never use a dry cloth  
as this may cause a static shock.  
Only use the power supply included with the product. Using  
an unauthorised power supply will invalidate your guarantee  
and may damage the telephone. The item number for the  
mains power supply is 872101.  
Environmental  
Do not expose to direct sunlight.  
If Keyguard is active, it is still possible to make emergency  
calls to 999 and 112.  
The product may heat up when the batteries are being  
recharged. This is normal. However, we recommend that you  
do not place the product on antique/veneered wood to avoid  
damage.  
Do not open the handset or base station. This could expose  
you to high voltages or other risks. Contact the helpline for  
all repairs.  
Do not stand your product on carpets or other surfaces which  
generate fibres, or place it in locations preventing free flow of  
air over it’s surfaces.  
Radio signals transmitted between the handset and base may  
cause interference to hearing aids.  
This product should not be used near emergency/intensive  
care medical equipment and should not be used by people  
with pacemakers.  
Do not submerge any part of your product in water and do not  
use it in damp or humid conditions, such as in bathrooms.  
Never dispose of batteries in a fire. There is a serious risk of  
explosion and/or the release of highly toxic chemicals.  
Do not expose your product to fire, explosive or other  
hazardous conditions.  
Cleaning  
There is a slight chance that your phone could be damaged by  
an electrical storm. We recommend that you unplug the power  
and telephone line cord for the duration of the storm.  
Simply clean the handset and base station with a damp  
(not wet) cloth, or an antistatic wipe. Never use household

On-Air 1300 Executive user guide ~ Edition 3 ~ 7th August ’01 ~ 3992  
Setting up  
Please note that your handset is already  
registered to the base station.  
WARNING  
Please take care that the power supply and  
telephone line cord are connected to the  
correct sockets as incorrect placement could  
damage your equipment.  
Plan the location  
Situate your product close enough to the  
telephone and mains power sockets so that the  
cables will reach.  
The only way to disconnect the product from  
the power supply is to remove the power  
adapter from the mains socket. Therefore you  
must ensure you plan the location so that the  
mains power is easily accessed.  
Once connected, put the plinth back on the  
base to prevent it from rocking on the table.  
There are two positions for the plinth when  
joining it to the base, both can be used for desk  
mounting and one for wall mounting. Position A  
is for desk mounting only and position B is for  
desk or wall mounting (see wall mounting on  
page 37).  
Make sure it is at least 1 metre away from other  
electrical products to avoid interference.  
Do not situate the product in the bathroom or  
other humid areas.  
A
B
1
Connect the power supply and  
switch on.  
IMPORTANT  
Rubber feet  
You must thread the power supply and line  
cord through the plinth before you connect to  
the power supply.  
Hold the black plastic square between thumb  
and forefinger and peel off individual feet from  
backing sheet as shown. These are to stop your  
base from moving and to protect your work  
surface.  
Plug the power supply cable into the socket on  
the underside of your base. The power cable  
connector and socket are coloured red.  
Plug the line cord into the other socket on the  
underside of the base marked with a telephone  
symbol.  
If you decide on position B, place 2 of the  
rubber feet on the plinth and 2 on the base.  
Plinth  
Plug the power adaptor into the wall socket and  
switch on. When the power is switched on, the  
button on your base will light up.

On-Air 1300 Executive user guide ~ Edition 3 ~ 7th August ’01 ~ 3992  
WARNING  
Do not connect the telephone line cord to the  
phone socket until your handset is fully  
charged. This will prevent the risk of the  
phone being answered before the battery is  
charged. Answering the phone before the  
battery is fully charged may prevent it from  
reaching its optimum capacity.

Battery low warning  
If the handset battery symbol is empty and you  
hear warning beeps, you will need to recharge  
your handset before you can use it.  
2
Charge the handset battery  
for at least 16 hours  
Battery performance  
WARNING  
Your handset is supplied with NiMH  
batteries. These need to be initially charged  
continuously for 16 hours to reach full  
charge.  
Under no circumstances should non-rechargeable  
batteries be used. Only use the approved  
batteries. Using unapproved batteries will  
invalidate your guarantee and may damage  
the telephone.  
Note that the battery charge icon does not  
indicate the correct level when the batteries  
are first installed. The batteries must first be  
fully charged.  
Fully discharging the batteries at least once a  
week will help them to last as long as possible.  
However, the charge capacity of rechargeable  
batteries will reduce with time as they wear  
out, so reducing the talk/standby time of the  
handset. Eventually they will need to be replaced.  
New batteries can be obtained from any BT  
Shop or from the helpline on 0845 601 2476.  
Helpline  
If you are experiencing difficulty, please call  
the BT On-Air Helpline on 0845 601 2476.  
When the battery has been charged for at least  
16 hours the display will show the symbol;  
you can then connect the telephone line cord to  
the base.

For the external line access code to be dialled  
for external calls only, it is important that all  
external numbers stored in your handset  
directory must contain more digits than the  
number of digits required to make an internal

This is most likely to occur when you have  
local external numbers stored in the handset  
directory without the area code. To overcome  
potential problems ensure that all numbers  
are stored complete with area code.
