CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK

t

Initial battery charging

Before plugging the phone line into your new phone for the first time,
fully charge the rechargeable battery pack for 15-20 hours

without interruption.

1) Place the handset on the base.

2) Make sure that

status

LED lights.

If the LED doesn’t light, check to
see that the AC adapter is plugged
in and that the handset makes
good contact with the base
charging contacts.

t

Low battery indicator

When the battery pack is very low and needs to be charged, the phone
is programmed to eliminate functions in order to save power. The
handset beeps. Complete your conversation as quickly as possible and
return the handset to the base for charging.

CLEANING THE BATTERY CONTACTS

To maintain a good charge, clean all charging contacts on the handset
and base about once a month with a pencil eraser or other contact
cleaner. DO NOT use liquids or solvents; you may damage your phone.

NOTE

Rechargeable batteries have
a “memory effect” that can
reduce standby and talk
time. To avoid this memory
effect, on a monthly basis
use the phone until the low
battery indicator appears.
Then charge the battery for
15-20 hours.
