Getting started
Battery performance
In ideal conditions, fully charged batteries should give up to 10 hours talk time
or up to 200 hours standby time on a single charge.

Note that new batteries do not reach their full capacity until they have been
put to normal use for several days.
To keep your 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 battery will reduce with time as it
wears out, giving the handset less talk / standby time. Eventually it will need to
be replaced.
After charging your handset for the first time, subsequent charging time is
about 6–8 hours a day. Batteries and the handset may become warm during
charging. This is normal.
Important
When fully charged batteries are removed and re-inserted, or the handset is
powered off and on, the battery icon on the display will reduce to 1 bar. The
battery is still fully charged and the handset can be used as normal. If you
charge the handset again by replacing it on the base unit, it will usually show
fully charged after 10 minutes (this time will be dependent on the battery
capacity). This is normal behaviour and is a reminder to charge the handset to
prevents calls being dropped.

All talk and standby times are approximate and depend on features selected
and usage pattern.
Date and time
If you have subscribed to a Caller ID Service and Auto Clock is set to on (see
page 28), the date and time is set automatically for all handsets when you
receive your first call. If Auto Clock is set to off the time and date does not
set automatically.
If you do not have a Caller ID service, you can set the date and time manually.
