Getting started
WARNING
Location
Do not place your BT Zenith Flip
in the bathroom or other
humid areas.
You need to place your BT Zenith Flip within 2 metres of
a mains power and telephone socket so that the cables
will reach.
Handset range
The BT Zenith Flip has a range of
300 metres outdoors when there is
a clear line of sight between the
base and handset. When there is
no clear line of sight between the
base and handset, e.g. base
indoors and handset either indoors
or outdoors, the range could be
reduced to 50 metres. Thick stone
walls severely affect the range.
Make sure it is at least 1 metre away from other
electrical appliances to avoid interference.
Your BT Zenith Flip 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
The
symbol on your handset
Setting up
screen indicates when you are in
range. When you are out of range,
it flashes. You will also hear
warning beep. During a call, you
will hear an out of range warning
beep in the earpiece.
1. Plug the mains power cable into the base.
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.
Which socket?

Route the cable through the channel on the base.

Battery performance
4. After 24 hours charging, plug one end of the telephone line
cord into the base and the other end into the wall socket.
When the battery is fully charged
the display a full, yellow-green
coloured battery.
Running the battery right down at
least once a week will help it last as
long as possible.
On a full charge, your BT Zenith
Flip handset gives you up to 10
hours talk time or up to 90 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.
Route the cable through the channel on the base.
The battery and handset may
become warm during charging.
This is normal.
Date and time
Only use a Li-ion rechargeable
battery with a recommended
capacity of 3.7V 720mAh.
Using an inappropriate battery
will invalidate your guarantee and
may damage the telephone.
If you have subscribed to your network’s Caller Display
service, the time will be set automatically when you
receive your first call. However, this will not set the date.
To set the date and time, see page 69.
