6 Things You Should Know

When the RECHARGE indicator flashes or the
unit beeps intermittently, place the handset on
the base unit to recharge the battery for 6 hours.

•If you DO NOT recharge the handset battery for more than 15

minutes, the RECHARGE indicator will continue to flash.

Note:
While using the handset:
— If you are near a microwave oven which is being used, noise may

be heard at the receiver. Move away from the microwave oven
and closer to the base unit.

— If more than one cordless phone is being used and your handset

is near another cordless phone’s base unit, noise may be heard.
Move away from the other cordless phone’s base unit and closer
to your base unit.

After your Panasonic battery is fully charged:

*Within about 3 meters
•The battery operating time may vary depending on usage conditions and

ambient temperature.

•As preventative maintenance, clean the handset and the base unit

charge contacts with a soft dry cloth once a month. Clean more often
if the unit is subject to grease, dust or high humidity. Otherwise, the
battery may not charge properly.

•If the battery is fully charged, you do not have to place the handset on the

base unit until the RECHARGE indicator flashes. This will maximize the
battery life.

•The battery cannot be overcharged.

Calls are transmitted between the base unit and the handset using wireless
radio waves. For maximum distance and noise free operation, the
recommended base unit location is:
