Setting up
Follow these steps to get your Diverse 1010 ready for use.
Warning
1 Use only approved nickel-cadmium (NiCad) rechargeable
batteries. Never use other batteries or conventional alkaline
batteries. Using such batteries could lead to a short circuit
or destroy the battery casing. Recommended batteries
should have a power rating of 600m Ah 1.2V. Batteries
available from the Diverse helpline 0345 908070.
2 Do not try to use any power supply except the one provided,
otherwise you may permanently damage your Diverse 1010.
It will also result in non-compliance with EN41003:1993, and
will invalidate the approval given to this apparatus.
3 There is a slight chance that your phone could be damaged
by an electrical storm. We recommend that you unplug
your Diverse from the mains power and telephone line
socket during storms.
4 If you wear a hearing aid, please note that the Diverse 1010
works by sending radio signals between the base unit and
handset. These signals can interfere with hearing aids,
causing a humming noise.
5 Diverse 1010 can interfere with other electrical equipment
e.g. answering machines, TV and radio sets, clock
radio/alarms and computers if placed too close. It is
recommended to place your Diverse 1010 at least one metre
away from such appliances to avoid any risk of interference.
6 It is possible that the Diverse’s 1010 range may be affected
by being near bodies of water (e.g. ponds, lakes, the sea).
1 Connecting the telephone line
cord to the Diverse 1010 base unit
Ensure that this is fitted correctly into the right
socket.
2 Plugging your Diverse 1010
into the BT socket
If you do not have a BT socket, call
Freefone 0800 800 150 and ask for a BT
engineer to come and fit the correct socket.
This is a chargeable service.

Setting up
As this product is rechargeable, it is normal that
a certain amount of heat will be produced in its
day-to-day operation. Whilst this is entirely safe we
would advise against placing this product on
antique, veneered or wooden surfaces as damage
may occur. Plan where you will put your Diverse
1010. It should be within two metres of a power
socket and the phone socket.
