Notes
• When you increase the sound volume, in some cases the back ground noise

may be increased as well. You should adjust the volume accordingly.

• If your conversation is muted and “CHANNEL  SEARCHING” appears on

the display, move closer to the base phone; otherwise, the call will be
disconnected after one minute.

The handset will beep every three seconds five times and E and
“BATTERY  LOW” appears on the display. Finish your call and charge
the battery pack.

Note that during the first 10 - 15 minutes of charging, the phone will be
inactive, i.e., unable to make or receive a call.

After this initial 10 - 15 minutes, you may be able to use the phone, but
the battery duration will be very short; thus it is recommended that
you fully charge the battery before the next usage.
