Placing the handset in the charging

cradle

¤

Plug the charging cradle mains adapter

into a mains power socket.

¤

Place the handset in the charging cra-

dle with the display facing forward.

To charge the battery pack, leave the

handset in the charging cradle.

For questions and problems see page 25.

Initial charging and discharging of the

battery pack

If the handset is activated, the flashing

battery icon

e in the top right of the dis-

play indicates that the battery pack is

being charged.
During handset operation, the battery

icon indicates the charge status of the bat-

tery pack (page 1). The correct charge sta-

tus can only be displayed if the battery

pack is first fully charged and discharged.

¤

To do this, leave the handset in the

charging cradle continuously for ten

hours. Your handset need not be

switched on for it to charge.

¤

Afterwards, remove the handset from

the charging cradle and do not put it

back again until the battery pack is fully

discharged.

Please note:

u

Always repeat the charging and dis-

charging procedure if you remove the

battery pack from the handset and

insert it again.

u

The battery pack may warm up as it is

charging. This is not dangerous.

u

After a time the charge capacity of the

battery pack will decrease for technical

reasons.
