Installation

and you might hear an error tone. Return the handset

to the base for about 3 seconds to reset the security

access-protection code.

• If the battery pack becomes weak during a call, the

handset beeps every 3 seconds and TALK/BATT

flashes. When this happens, recharge the battery pack.

• If TALK/BATT does not light and the phone does not

work, recharge the battery pack. (The battery power

might be too low to light TALK/BATT.)

• About once a month, fully discharge the battery by

keeping the handset off the base until TALK/BATT

flashes. Otherwise, the battery pack loses its ability to

fully recharge.

• The handset loses its security access-protection code if

the battery pack is completely discharged. While

holding PAGE, place the handset on the base to

recharge the battery pack and reset the code.

• If you are not going to use your phone for an extended

period, disconnect the battery pack. This increases the

battery pack’s usable life.

The supplied battery pack should last for about a year. If the
battery pack does not hold a charge for more than 2 hours
after an overnight charge, replace it with a new 3.6-volt, 600
mAh battery pack with a connector that fits the socket in the
battery compartment. You can order a replacement battery
pack through RadioShack. Install the new battery pack and
charge it for about 15–20 hours. If you have trouble
replacing the battery pack, take the phone to your local
RadioShack for assistance.

ONNECTING

AND

DJUSTING

THE

EADSET

1. Insert the headset’s plug into the jack on the side of the

base.

2. Place the headset on your head with the earpiece over

either ear.

3. Adjust the headset band until it rests with almost no

pressure on your ear and the top of your head.

If the headset is loose, press in slightly to tighten it. If it
is tight, gently pull the headset band out to loosen it.

4. Hold the headset in place and adjust the microphone

boom until it is about even with (but not in front of) your
mouth. Experiment until you find the most comfortable
position.

CAUTION

The microphone boom swivels on
the headset. Do not bend the
microphone boom while you adjust
it.

NOTE

When you are not using the
headset, place it on the headset
hanger. Otherwise (if you set it on a
flat surface, for example), you might
have to repeat these adjustments.
