CONNECTING AND
CHARGING THE
HANDSET BATTERY
PACK

The TAD-1029 comes with a recharge-
able nickel-cadmium battery pack in the
handset but not connected. Before using
your phone, you must connect the bat-
tery pack and then charge it for about 15
hours.

1. Press down and slide off the battery

compartment cover.

2. Lift the battery pack out of the com-

partment, and plug its connector into
the socket inside the compartment.
The connector fits only one way.

3. Put the battery pack in the compart-

ment and replace the cover.

4. To charge the battery pack, simply

place the handset on the base. The
CHARGE indicator on the base
lights.

Recharge the battery pack when the
BATT LOW indicator on the handset
flashes.

Notes:

• If the CHARGE indicator does not

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

Also, check the charging contacts
on the handset and base. If the con-
tacts are dirty or tarnished, clean
them with a pencil eraser.
