• If the CHARGE/TALK indicator

does not light when you place the
handset on the cradle, be sure the
battery is connected to the pins
inside the battery compartment
and the AC adapter is securely
connected to the base. Also,
check the charging contacts on
the handset and base. If the con-
tacts are dirty or tarnished, gently
clean them with a pencil eraser.

• About once a month, fully dis-

charge the battery by keeping the
handset off the cradle until

flashes, then return the

handset to the cradle and fully
recharge the battery. If you do not
fully discharge and recharge the
battery periodically, it loses its
ability to fully recharge.

• The first time you use your phone

after installing a new battery, the
handset might not work and might
sound an error tone when you
press

TALK

. This might also occur

when you recharge a battery that
has been completely discharged.
If this happens, be sure the hand-
set is turned on, then return the
handset to the cradle for 5 sec-
onds. This resets the security
access code.
