The handset range is up to 300 metres outdoors and 50 metres indoors (in ideal conditions).
The icon in the handset display indicates when you are in range. It flashes and you will
hear a warning beep when you go out of range, in which case you will need to move closer
to the base. Try to position the phone at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances
to avoid interference and help maximise the handset range.

socket marked
