The freedom that your cordless telephone can offer is fully dependent on
the performance of the rechargeable battery in the handset. To maximize
the battery performance, follow these guidelines:
Charge it for a full 12 hours
Before initial use of your new battery, charge it for 12 hours continuously.
The proper initial charging is very important to maximize the battery
performance.
Keep the contacts clean
You can never fully recharge the battery if the contacts are dirty. Clean
all the contacts - two at the bottom of the handset and two in the base
cradle - periodically, using a pencil eraser.
Do not replace the handset in the base after each call
Repeated short charging creates a memory effect in the battery. Once a
rechargeable battery acquires this “short memory”, it sends a “low
battery” signal even when it is almost fully charged. The battery then
needs to be charged frequently. To avoid this, leave the handset away
from the cradle until it really needs recharging.
Refresh battery
If your battery seems to need recharging more often than usual, it may
have lost part of its charging capacity because of premature recharges.
To bring back its full capacity, try “refreshing” the battery:
1. First discharge the battery by leaving the handset in TALK mode
until Battery Low indication turns on. (Disconnect the base from the
telephone line, so that your line is not busy all the time.)
2. Then charge it for 12 continuous hours.
3. Repeat the above once more.
