Important Safety Instructions
- Use only the supplied NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) batteries. The operation periods for the handsets are only applicable with the default battery capacities.
- The use of other battery types or non-rechargeable batteries / primary cells can be dangerous. These may cause interference and / or unit damage. The manufacturer will not be held liable for damage arising from such non-compliance.
- Use only the AC power adaptors supplied with this product. Please contact TecHelp on 1300 369 193 for replacement adaptors.
- Please ensure the batteries are inserted according to the correct polarity.
-
Do not immerse the batteries in water, and do not place them in a fire.
-
Telephone receivers produce magnetic fields that can attract small metallic objects such as pins or staples. To avoid injury, do not place the handset where such objects can be picked up.
Getting Started
Location
Place your Telstra 9150 within 2 metres of the mains power socket and telephone socket so that the cables will reach.
Make sure it is at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances to avoid interference. Your Telstra 9150 works by sending radio signals between the handset and base. The strength of the signal depends on where you locate the base. Putting it as high as possible ensures the best signal. The maximum range between the base station and the handset is approximately 300 metres.
Setting up
- Plug the mains power cable into the base station, plug the other end into the mains power wall socket and switch the power on.

Getting Started
- ETo fit the NiMH rechargeable batteries into the handset, remove the battery compartment cover by sliding it out. Place the batteries as indicated, following the polarity. Slide the battery compartment cover back on until it clicks into place.

When the handset is fully charged the will be displayed. A beep indicates that the handset is properly placed on the base or charger.
- EWhen the batteries are fully charged, plug one end of the telephone line cord into the base station and the other end into the telephone wall socket.
WARNING
Do not place your Telstra 9150 in the bathroom or other humid areas.
IMPORTANT
The base station must be plugged into the mains power socket at all times. Do not connect the telephone line until the handset is fully charged. Only use the power supply, telephone cables and NiMH rechargeable batteries supplied with the product.
Battery performance
In ideal conditions, the fully charged batteries should give up to 12 hours talk time, or 160 hours standby time, on a single charge. Note that new batteries will not reach full capacity until they have been in normal use for several days.
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. The charge capacity of the rechargeable batteries will reduce with time as they wear out, giving the handset less talk /
Getting Started
standby time. Eventually they will need to be replaced. Replacement batteries can be obtained by contacting TecHelp on 1300 369 193 or from your local electrical retailer.
After charging your handset for the first time, subsequent charging time is about 6-8 hours a day. The batteries and handset may become warm during charging, however, this is normal.
Setting up for multiple packs
If you have purchased a Telstra 9150 multiple pack, you will need to prepare additional handsets and chargers for use.
For each additional handset and charger
- EPlug the power adaptor into the mains power wall socket and switch the power on.
Note: The other end of the power adaptor is firmly connected with the charge base.
