Installing the Phone
Installing the Handset Battery
NOTE: You must connect the handset battery before using the
cordless handsets.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury, use only
the Thomson Inc. approved Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cd) battery
model 5-2729 or Nickel-Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) battery model
5-2522, which is compatible with this unit.
1. Locate battery and battery door which are packaged together inside a plastic bag
and are separate from the handset.
. Locate the battery compartment on the back of the handset.
3. Plug the battery pack cord into the jack inside the compartment.
NOTE: It is important to maintain the polarity (black and red wires)
to the jack inside the compartment. To ensure proper battery
installation, the connector is keyed and can be inserted only one way.
4. Insert the battery pack.
5. Close the battery compartment by pushing the door up until it snaps into place.
6. Place the handsets in the charging cradles. Allow handsets to charge for 16 hours
prior to first use. If you don’t properly charge the handsets, battery performance is
compromised.
