If the handset is activated, the flashing 

battery icon 

e in the top right of the dis-

play indicates that the battery pack is 

being charged. 
During handset operation, the battery 

icon indicates the charge status of the bat-

tery pack (page 1). The correct charge sta-

tus can only be displayed if the battery 

pack is first fully charged and discharged. 

¤

To do this, leave the handset in the 

charging cradle continuously for ten 

hours. Your handset need not be 

switched on for it to charge. 

¤

Afterwards, remove the handset from 

the charging cradle and do not put it 

back again until the battery pack is fully 

discharged. 

u Always repeat the charging and dis-

charging procedure if you remove the 

battery pack from the handset and 

insert it again.

u The battery pack may warm up as it is 

charging. This is not dangerous.

u After a time the charge capacity of the 

battery pack will decrease for technical 

reasons.

You should set the date and time, in order, 

e.g. to ensure that the correct time is 

recorded for incoming calls and in order to 

use the alarm clock and calendar.

¤

If you have not yet set the date and 

time, press the display key 

 to open 

the input field. 

To change the time, open the input field

a.m.

 

Press the display key.

Once the phone is registered and the time 

set, the idle display looks as shown here 

(example):

Your phone is now ready for use. 

After the initial charge and discharge you may 

replace your handset in the charging cradle 

after every call.
