CONNECTING AND
CHARGING THE BATTERY
PACK

The TAD-797 comes with a recharge-
able nickel-cadmium battery pack in-
stalled in the handset, but not
connected. Before using your phone,
you must connect the battery pack, then
charge it for about 24 hours.

1. Press down and slide off the battery

pack compartment cover.

2. Unfasten the plastic retainer strap

and lift the battery pack out of the
compartment. Plug the battery
pack’s connector into the socket in
the compartment. The connector fits
only one way.

3. Put the battery pack in the compart-

ment and fasten the retainer strap.

4. Replace the cover.

To charge the battery pack, simply place
the handset on the base, facing either
up or down. The CHARGE indicator on
the base lights and

Notes:

• When you first use the phone after

charging or recharging the battery
pack, the phone might not work and
you might hear a five-beep error sig-
nal when you press

. If this

happens, return the handset to the
base for about 5 seconds. This re-
sets the security access-protection
code.

• If the CHARGE indicator does not

light when you place the handset on
the base, be sure the AC adapter is
correctly and securely connected.
