Charge handset battery
After battery installation, there may be enough power for some short calls. For optimal performance,
we recommend that you place the handset in the charger and allow the battery to charge for 16
hours before use. The CHARGE light on the handset charger will be lit to indicate that the handset is
charging. You can keep the battery charged by returning the handset to the charger after each use.
When the battery power is completely depleted, a full recharge takes about 16 hours. If the handset
will not be used for a long period, remove the battery to prevent possible leakage.
After the battery is fully charged, you can expect the following performance:
Operation Operating time
While in use (handset/headset) 7 hours
While in use (Speakerphone) 5 hours
While in use (Internet browsing) 3 hours
While not in use (standby*) 100 hours #
* Handset is off the charger but not in use.
# The operation time in standby mode will decrease to approximately 50 hours if the keypad is blinking to indicate you have new
voicemail.
The battery needs charging when:
�� A new battery is installed in the handset.
• The battery indicator on the handset display is flashing and empty.
