NOTE: During a power interruption, the BASE UNIT does not operate, and a phone
conversation cannot be made on the HANDSET.
Recharging the BATTERY PACK
The nickel cadmium (Ni-Cd) BATTERY PACK in the HANDSET can be recharged many
times using the built-in charger in the BASE UNIT.
When the BATT LOW symbol appears on the LCD Screen, a “beep” sound will be heard
every 10 seconds. This indicates that the BATTERY PACK needs to be recharged.
Charge the BATTERY PACK at least once every 90 days of non-use to avoid battery
failure. When the BATTERY PACK can no longer be charged, replacement of the
BATTERY PACK will be necessary.
The BATTERY PACK used in your telephone may develop a condition known as
“MEMORY.” Once subjected to a regular short discharging routine, the BATTERY PACK
assumes the discharging pattern it was subjected to. This causes rapid discharging
thereby shortening the BATTERY PACK charge span. If you believe your BATTERY PACK
has developed a “MEMORY” condition, do not charge the HANDSET until the BATT LOW
symbol appears on the LCD Screen. When the BATT LOW symbol appears on the LCD
Screen, charge the HANDSET fully for 12 hours.
IMPORTANT
In order to get maximum life from the HANDSET
BATTERY PACK, be sure to charge the HANDSET
for 12 hours before initial use.
