●

Initially charge the batteries thoroughly. We recom-

mend charging the batteries for approximately 16 

hours without interruption (overnight for example). 

During the first week of operation, continually replace 

the handsets in the charging unit for recharging.

●

New batteries do not usually reach their full capacity 

(i.e. maximum time when the telephone is in use and 

stand-by time) until they have been in normal use for 

several days. Although the battery LED indicates that 

the rechargeable batteries of a handset have been 

charged (LED off), you must assume during this initial 

phase that the capacity may not reach that of maxi-

mum time when the telephone is in use, or that of 

stand-by time.

●

Stand-by time

–

Up to 70 hours (NiCd, 650 mAh)

–

Up to 110 hours (NiMH, 1100 mAh)

–

Up to 130 hours (NiMH, 1300 mAh)

●

After they have initially been thoroughly charged, the 

rechargeable batteries are fully operative. For normal 

operation, we recommend that the handsets are not 

placed in the charging unit each time a call is complet-

ed. The rechargeable batteries should be discharged 

from time to time.

Caution: partially discharged batteries only offer lim-

ited operating time.

●

Make sure that the contacts do not touch metal or 

oily objects.
