WARNING
Do not connect the telephone line cord to the
phone socket until your handset is fully
charged. This will prevent the risk of the
phone being answered before the battery is
charged. Answering the phone before the
battery is fully charged may prevent it from
reaching its optimum capacity.
2 Charge the handset battery
for at least 16 hours
WARNING
Under no circumstances should non-rechargeable
batteries be used. Only use the approved
batteries. Using unapproved batteries will
invalidate your guarantee and may damage
the telephone.
Fully discharging the batteries at least once a
week will help them to last as long as possible.
However, the charge capacity of rechargeable
batteries will reduce with time as they wear
out, so reducing the talk/standby time of the
handset. Eventually they will need to be replaced.
New batteries can be obtained from any BT
Shop or from the helpline on
0845 601 2476.
When the battery has been charged for at least
16 hours the display will show the symbol;
you can then connect the telephone line cord to
the base.
Battery low warning
If the handset battery symbol is empty and you
hear warning beeps, you will need to recharge
your handset before you can use it.
Helpline
If you are experiencing difficulty, please call
the BT On-Air Helpline on 0845 601 2476.

Battery performance
Your handset is supplied with NiMH
batteries. These need to be initially charged
continuously for 16 hours to reach full
charge.
Note that the battery charge icon does not
indicate the correct level when the batteries
are first installed. The batteries must first be
fully charged.
