To make a call
• Pick up the handset.
• Press the TALK button on the handset.
The CHANNEL SEEKER light will flash as
the telephone searches for the best radio
channel. When it goes out, the IN USE
light on the base-unit and the TALK light
will come on.
• Listen for the dialling tone. On some
exchanges there may be a delay of a few
seconds before the dialling tone is heard.
Dial the telephone number. You will hear a
beep each time you press a key.
• After your call, either press the TALK
button again, or replace the handset on the
base unit.
To switch from Pulse to Tone signalling
during a call
If you are connected to a pulse dialling
exchange, you can still use services such as
phone banking that require tone signalling.
• Call the telephone number you require in
pulse mode as usual.
• When you have been connected, press the
button on the keypad to set your
telephone to tone signalling for the duration
of the call.
• When you hang up, your Freestyle 1100
Plus will automatically switch back to pulse
dialling.

An Inductive Coupler has been built into
the handset to improve sound quality for
people using hearing aids. Switch your
hearing aid to T and adjust the position of the
handset until you get the best reception.
The Freestyle 1100 Plus handset has a range of
up to 250 metres from the base-unit, depending on
local conditions.
If you move out of range while using the telephone,
you will hear four beeps.
If you do not move back into range the telephone
will repeat the warning a further five times before
cutting off the call.
