• Initially charge the batteries thoroughly; we recom-
mend charging the batteries for at least 16 hours with-
out interruption – irrespective of the charging status
icon.
• Once the first charging operation is complete, you can
replace the handset in the base station after any call.
Charging is controlled electronically. This ensures opti-
mum charging and prolongs battery life.
• The batteries heat up during charging.
• The battery charging status is only correctly displayed af-
ter uninterrupted charging/discharging.
