Getting started
Battery charging
Once you have installed the battery, the screen indicates the battery
status (see the table below). If necessary, place the handset in the
telephone base to charge the battery. For best performance, keep
the handset in the telephone base when not in use. The battery is fully
charged after 16 hours of continuous charging. See the table on page 25
for battery operating times.
If the screen is blank, you need to charge the handset without interruption
for at least 30 minutes to give the handset enough charge to use the
telephone for a short time. When the battery is low, the handset displays
Low battery along with a flashing icon. If you are on a call in low battery
mode, the handset beeps every 50 seconds.
The following table summarizes the battery charge indicators and actions
to take.
