General Care
2-2 Issue 3 October 1997
Charging the Phone with a Battery
1. Place the phone in the Battery charger. Ensure that the charger is plugged
into a properly grounded three-prong wall outlet.
2. Ensure that the Phone indicator is yellow (refer to Figure 2-1).
NOTE:
If the Phone indicator is red, the handset is not seated in the charger
properly.
NOTE:
If the Phone Charge indicator is flashing green, the charger is evaluating the
state of the battery before going into the appropriate charging mode.
Using the Phone
The pocket phone is fully charged once the Phone indicator turns green. When
this happens, the phone is ready for use.
NOTE:
The phone can be removed when the light is yellow, but the talk time and
standby time are both reduced.
When the pocket phone is removed from the charger, it begins to consume power
during both talk time and standby time. A fully charged battery pack provides
about four hours of talk time and 48 hours of standby time. However, after 48
hours of standby time there is no talk time available.
!
WARNING:
The rechargeable battery packs contain nickel and cadmium. Do not burn or
puncture these batteries. Like other batteries of this type, if they are burned
or punctured, they could release toxic material, which could cause injury. Do
not dispose of them with ordinary trash. For information about recycling or
proper disposal, consult your local solid waste (trash) collection or disposal
organization.
Low Battery Indicator
When the battery power is low, the pocket phone will emit a warning tone and the
LOW BATT message will appear on the phone display. When this occurs, you
have approximately 20 minutes of talk time left.
