CHARGING THE
BATTERY
Before you use your phone for the first
time or when you install a new battery,
make sure
RINGER ON/OFF
on the
handset is set to
OFF
, then charge the
battery for about 12-15 hours by plac-
ing the handset on the cradle so the
POWER and CHARGE indicators
light.
The phone charges whenever the
handset is on the base. You can re-
charge the battery at any time, but be
sure to recharge it when BATT LOW
lights on the handset.
Notes:
• Continuing to use the battery after
BATT LOW
lights could shorten
overall battery life.
• The first time you use your phone
after installing a new battery, the
handset might not work or might
sound an error tone when you
press
TALK
. This might also occur
when you recharge a battery that
has been completely discharged.
If this happens, be sure
RINGER
ON/OFF
is set to
ON
. Then return
the handset to the cradle for 5
seconds. This resets the security
access code.
• If the CHARGE indicator does not
light when you place the handset
on the cradle, be sure the battery
is connected to the pins inside the
battery compartment, and the AC
adapter is securely connected to
the base.
Also, check the charging contacts
on the handset and base. If the
contacts are dirty or tarnished,
gently clean them with a pencil
eraser.
• About once a month, fully dis-
charge the battery. Keep the
handset off the cradle until BATT
LOW lights. Then return the hand-
set to the cradle and recharge the
battery for about 10 hours.
