jack on

the back of the base.

3. Insert the supplied AC adapter’s barrel

plug into the

The phone comes with a rechargeable nickel-
cadmium battery pack in the handset, but not
connected. Before using your phone, you
must connect the battery pack, then charge it
for about 15

–

20 hours.

1. Press down and slide off the battery

compartment cover.

2. Lift the battery pack out of the

compartment.

3. Plug the battery pack’s connector into

the socket in the compartment (the
connector fits only one way), then place
the battery pack in the compartment.

4. Replace the cover.

To charge the battery pack, place the
handset face-up or face-down on the base.
The CHARGE/IN USE indicator on the base
lights and

• When you first use the phone after

charging or recharging the battery pack,
the phone might not work and you might
hear an error tone when you press

TALK

While holding

PAGE

, return the handset

to the base for about 3 seconds to reset
the security access-protection code.

• If the base loses power for about an hour

while the handset is away from it, the
security access-protection code might be
lost. To reset the code, while holding

PAGE

, return the handset to the base for

about 3 seconds.

• If the battery pack becomes weak during

a call, the handset beeps every 3
seconds and

Bemý8Wjj[ho

flashes. When

this happens, you cannot make a call
until you recharge the battery pack.

• If the display is blank and the phone

does not work, recharge the battery
pack. (The battery power might be too
low to light the display.)

• About once a month, fully discharge the

battery by keeping the handset off the
base until

Bemý8Wjj[ho

flashes on the

display. 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.

• Using a pencil eraser, clean the charging

contacts on the handset and base about
once a month.

• 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.
