Where to put your phone
• Place the base within
3 metres of a mains power
socket and 1.8 metres of a
phone socket so the cables
will reach.
• Don’t place the phone or
base in a bathroom or
other humid area.
• The product works by
sending radio signals
between the handset and
base. The strength of the
signal depends on where you
position the base. Putting it
as high as possible can help
give you the best signal.
IMPORTANT
• The base station should
be plugged into the mains
power socket all the time.

Talk/Standby time
Under ideal conditions, the
handset batteries should give
up to 10 hours talk time or
100 hours standby on a single
charge.
Please note that new Ni-MH
rechargeable batteries don’t
reach full capacity until
they’ve been in normal use
for several days.
Battery low warning
The icon will flash, you’ll
hear a warning beep every
minute, to indicate that you
need to recharge your handset
before you can use it.
If the battery charge completely
runs out, you must recharge the
handset batteries before you
can use the handset. Place the
handset on the base or charger
to charge.
When a handset is charging
from a low charge, the display
shows four characters scrolling
in a circle on the bottom line of
display.

Battery performance
• To keep the batteries in the
best condition, leave the
handset off the base for a
few hours at a time.
• Running the batteries right
down at least once a week
will help them last as long
as possible.
• After charging your handset
for the first time, subsequent
charging time for the
batteries is approximately
8 hours.
• The charge capacity of
rechargeable batteries will
go down over time, which
will reduce the talk and
standby time. Eventually
they’ll need replacing.
For details on how to get
replacement batteries,
call the helpline on
0800 218 2182*.
3. Once set-up is complete your handset will display
the handset name, place the handset on the base
to charge.
4. After 16 hours, plug the phone line cord into the
phone wall socket.
IMPORTANT
Charge the handset batteries for 16 hours or your
phone might not work.

Set up your additional handsets (multipacks only)
1. For additional handsets and chargers: plug the
mains power adaptor into the underside of the
charger and plug the other end into the mains wall
socket and switch on the power.
2. Activate the batteries as explained on page 5.
3. Place the handset on the charger to charge for
16 hours.
If you ever need to remove the batteries, slide
open the battery compartment cover then gently
ease the batteries out.
Using your BT XD56 on a line
with broadband?
To avoid problems with your
broadband or noise on your
phone line, you might need to
plug your telephone line cord
into the wall socket via a
microfilter (not supplied).
If your main phone
socket has a single
socket, you do need
to use microfilters,
like this:
You’ll need a microfilter for every
phone socket where you’ve
got equipment plugged in – up
to a maximum of four per line
– including alarm sytems and
digital TV boxes.
You can get BT ADSL micro filters
from bt.com/shop
You don’t need to use microfilters
if your main phone socket has
two separate sockets, like these:
