Recharging the BATTERY PACK

The nickel metal hydride (Ni-MH) BATTERY PACK in the HANDSET can be
recharged many times using the built-in charger in the BASE UNIT or CHARGER
UNIT.

When the BATT LOW symbol appears on the LCD Screen, a “beep” sound will be
heard every 10 seconds. This indicates that the BATTERY PACK needs to be
recharged.

Charge the BATTERY PACK at least once every 90 days of non-use to avoid battery
failure. When the BATTERY PACK can no longer be charged, replacement of the
BATTERY PACK will be necessary.

NOT ES:

1. During a power interruption, the BASE UNIT does not operate, and a

phone conversation cannot be made on the HANDSET.

2. To ensure your phone charges properly, place the HANDSET on the

BASE UNIT with TELEPHONE KEYPAD face up, and make sure that the
CHARGE LED indicator on the BASE UNIT lights up and a “beep”
confirmation tone is heard.
