Cleaning the battery charging contacts
To maintain a good charge, it is important to clean the
charging contacts on the handsets, base unit and charging
cradle once a month. Using water only, dampen a cloth to
clean the charging contacts. Then make sure to go back over
the charging contacts with a dry cloth before returning the
handset to the base to charge.
Caution: Do not use paint thinner, benzene, alcohol, or other
chemical products. Doing so may discolor the surface of the
telephone and damage the finish.
Low Battery
The last number dialed in the redial memory and the
numbers stored in the memory locations are retained for
up to 30 minutes while you replace the battery pack.
Low battery alert
When the battery pack is very low and needs to be charged,
the phone is programmed to eliminate functions in order to save
power. If the phone is not in use, “
Low Battery “ appears on
the LCD and none of the keys will operate.
If the phone is in use, “
Low Battery “ flashes and the handset
beeps. Complete your conversation as quickly as possible and
return the handset to either charging cradle for charging.
