Initial charging and discharging of batteries
Battery charging is indicated in the top right of the display by a flashing battery icon
e
,
V
or
U
. During handset operation, the battery icon indicates the charge status of the
batteries (page 1).
The correct charge status can only be displayed when the batteries are first fully charged
and
discharged through use.

To do this, leave the handset in the charging cradle without interruption until the bat-
tery icon stops flashing in the display (around 13 hours).
Please note:
– Only place the handset in the charging cradle that is intended for it.
– If the handset has switched itself off because the batteries are flat and if it is then placed in the
charging cradle, it will switch itself on automatically.
