For the initial charge we recommend a continuous, uninterrupted charg-

ing period of 2.5 hours, whatever charge status is indicated. After a while 

the charge capacity of the battery will decrease for technical reasons.

◆ Once initial charging is complete, you can replace your handset in the 

charging shell after each call. Charging is controlled electronically. 

This ensures that the battery is charged in a way that maximises its 

life.

◆ The battery heats up during charging. This is normal and not 

dangerous.
