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 oper-
ation, the battery icon indicates the
charge status of the batteries (page 1).
The correct charge status can only be dis-
played 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 battery icon stops flashing in
the display (around 13 hours).
¤
Once the batteries are fully charged,
remove the handset from the charging
cradle and do not put it back again until
the batteries are fully discharged.
Please note:
u Always repeat the charging and dis-
charging procedure if you remove the
batteries from the handset and reinsert
them.
u The batteries may warm up during
charging. This is not dangerous.
u After a while the charge capacity of the
batteries will decrease for technical rea-
sons.
