Installation
Notes:
² When you first use the phone after charging or recharging the
battery pack, the phone might not work and you might hear a two-
beep signal when you press
TALK . If this happens, return the
handset to the base for about 15 seconds. This resets the security
access protection code.
² If the CHARGING indicator does not light when you place the
handset on the base, be sure the battery pack and AC adapter are
correctly and securely connected.
Also, check the charging contacts on the handset and the
base. If the contacts are dirty or tarnished, clean them with a pencil
eraser.
² If the battery pack gets completely discharged or the base loses
power while the handset is away from it, the security access-
protection code needs to be reset. To reset the code, place the
handset on the base for about 15 seconds. If it was the handset
that lost power, leave the handset on the base to charge the bat-
tery pack.
² If the battery pack gets weak during a call, the handset beeps 4
times. If this happens, you cannot make another call on the phone
until you recharge the battery pack.
² About once a month, fully discharge the battery pack by keep-
ing the handset off the base until the LOW BATT indicator lights.
Otherwise, the battery pack loses its ability to fully recharge.
² If you are not going to use your phone for an extended period of
time, disconnect the battery pack. This increases the battery
pack’s usable life.
² The supplied battery pack should last for about a year. When it
loses its ability to fully recharge, order a replacement battery pack
from your local RadioShack store (see “Replacing the Handset
Battery Pack” on Page 39).
