Headset Operation  
Headset Operation  
Your IP 811 handset is equipped with a 2.5mm headset jack for use with an optional ac-  
cessory headset for handsfree conversations. If you choose to use the headset option, you  
must obtain an optional accessory headset that is compatible with the IP 811.  
To purchase a headset, visit us on the web at shop.vtechcanada.com or call VTech  
Customer Service at 1-800-267-7377.  
Once you have a compatible 2.5mm headset, locate the headset jack on the IP 811 handset.  
Connect the plug on the headset cord to the jack (under a small rubber flap) on the cordless  
handset. The plug should fit securely. Do not force the connection.  
NOTE:  
Whenever a compatible headset is conn-  
ected to the cordless handset, the micro-  
phone on the handset will be muted. This  
is done to limit the effect of background  
noise.  
When a compatible headset is connected  
to the cordless handset, your speaker-  
phone feature will be disabled. To use  
your speakerphone feature, simply dis-  
connect the headset from the handset.

The IP 811 is also equipped with a detachable  
belt clip.Align the pins on the inside edge of the  
clip with the notches on the sides of the handset.

Maintenance  
Taking Care OfYour Telephone  
Your cordless telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts, so it must be  
treated with care.  
Avoid rough treatment  
Place the handset down gently. Save the original packing materials to protect your  
telephone if you ever need to ship it.  
Avoid water  
Your telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not use the handset outdoors  
in the rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not install your base unit near a sink,  
bathtub or shower.  
Electrical storms  
Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic  
equipment. For your own safety, use caution when using electric appliances  
during storms.  
Cleaning your telephone  
Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for many  
years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild soap.  
Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.  
Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when you  
are wet or standing in water. If your base unit should fall into water, DO NOT  
RETRIEVE IT UNTILYOU UNPLUGTHE POWER CORD AND ETHERNET  
CABLE FROM THE WALL. Then pull the unit out by the unplugged cords.  
10  
 
In Case Of Difficulty  
The Phone Doesn’t Work At All  
Make sure the power cord is plugged in.  
Make sure the Ethernet cable is plugged firmly into the base unit and the broad-  
band connection.  
Make sure the batteries are properly charged. If you get a LOW BATTERY mes-  
sage or indication, the batteries need charging.  
No Dial Tone  
First check all the suggestions above.  
Please refer to the Troubleshooting section of the Base Unit Features Manual  
of IP 8100-2/ 8100-3.  
You Get Noise, Static, Or A Weak Signal Even When You’re Near  
The Base Unit  
Household appliances plugged into the same circuit as the base unit can some-  
times cause interference. Try to move the appliance or the base unit to another  
outlet.  
You Get Noise, Static, Or A Weak Signal WhenYou’re Away From  
The Base Unit  
You may be out of range. Either move closer to the base, or relocate the base  
unit.  
The layout of your home may be limiting the range. Try to move the base unit to  
another position.  
The Handset Does Not Ring WhenYou Receive A Call  
Make sure you have the ringers activated. Refer to the section(s) on Ringer  
Volume in IP 8100-2/ 8100-3 user's manual.  
Make sure the ethernet cable is plugged firmly into the base unit and the broad-  
band connection. Make sure the power cord is plugged in.  
You may be too far from the base unit.  
You Hear Noise In The Handset, And None Of The Keys Or  
Buttons Work  
Make sure the power cord is plugged in.  
Common Cure For Electronic Equipment  
If the unit does not seem to be responding normally, then try to put the handset  
in the charger. If it does not seem to respond, do the following (in the order  
listed):  
1. Disconnect the power to the base.  
2. Disconnect the handset battery pack.  
3. Wait a few minutes.
