off.

2.  Line up the battery connector with 

the jack inside the handset; the 

connector only fits one way.

into place; tug gently on the wires 

to make sure the battery is securely 

connected.

power jack on the base to a regular 

indoor (120V AC) power outlet. 

Connect any chargers the same way. 

6.  Place a handset in the base with the 

display facing forward. If the display 

doesn’t light up, reseat the handset or 

connect the base to a different outlet. 

For 2 or more handsets, place each 

handset in a charger.
