Leave the handset in the charging cra-

dle in the base to charge up the

batteries.

If you have any questions or problems see

page 33.

First battery charge and discharge

Battery charging is indicated in the top

right of the display by a flashing battery

icon

e, V or U. During handset oper-

ation, the battery icon indicates the

charge status of the batteries (page 1).
The correct charge status can only be dis-

played when the batteries are first fully

charged and discharged through use.

¤

To do this, leave the handset in the

base without interruption until the

battery icon stops flashing in the dis-

play (approx. 6h). Your handset need

not be switched on for it to charge.

¤

Once the batteries are fully charged,

remove the handset from the base and

do not put it back again until the batter-

ies are fully discharged.

Please note:

u

Always repeat the charging and dis-

charging procedure if you remove the

batteries from the handset and insert

them in again.

u

The batteries may warm up as they are

charging. This is not dangerous.

u

After a while the charge capacity of the

batteries will decrease for technical rea-

sons.

Your telephone is now ready for use
