Question
Cause/solution
How long is the battery operating 
time?
L
When you are using fully-charged Ni-MH batteries (supplied 
batteries);
In continuous use: 18 hours max.
Not in use (standby): 170 hours max.
L
It is normal for batteries not to reach full capacity at the initial 
charge. Maximum battery performance is reached after a few 
complete cycles of charge/discharge (use).
L
Actual battery performance depends on a combination of how 
often the handset is in use and how often it is not in use (standby).
Can I keep the handset on the charger 
when I am not using it?
L
Even after the handset is fully charged, the handset can be left on 
the charger without any ill effect on the batteries.
When should I replace the batteries?
L
If the batteries are fully charged until & is displayed, but ) is 
displayed after a few calls, replace the batteries with new ones.
What is a PIN?
L
The PIN is a 4-digit number that must be entered in order to 
change certain base unit settings. The default PIN is “0000”.
What should I do to display caller 
information?
L
You must subscribe to a Caller ID service. Contact your service 
provider/telephone company for details.
L
The message “You must first subscribe to Caller 
ID.
” will be displayed until you receive caller information after 
subscribing to a Caller ID service.
What should I do when noise is heard, 
sound cuts in and out?
L
You are using the base unit or handset in an area with high 
electrical interference. Re-position the base unit and use the 
handset away from sources of interference.
L
Move closer to the base unit.
L
If you use a DSL/ADSL service, we recommend connecting a 
DSL/ADSL filter between the base unit and the telephone line 
jack. Contact your DSL/ADSL provider for details.
What should I do when the operating 
time seems to be shorter even after I 
fully charged the batteries?

Clean the battery ends (S, T) and the charge contacts with a dry 
cloth and charge again.
