Preparing the handsets
Installing and charging the handset battery pack
1 On each handset:
Remove the battery compartment cover.
Press down on the semi-circle indent and slide
the cover off.
Connect the supplied battery pack with the
correct polarity.
Slide the battery cover back until it clicks
securely into place.
2 To charge the battery, place the handset(s) on
the base or on a charger. The charging light in
the base illuminates. While charging, the
symbol
scrolls and when the handset is fully
charged, all the bars of the battery symbol will
be filled when the phone is off the cradle.
If the charging light does not come on, reposition
the handset in the base or charger, ensuring that
the charging points contact. You must charge
each handset for 15-20 hours before use.
NOTE: Once your handset is fully charged, your
phone is designed for the base charge
LED to turn off for approximately 4
seconds during the following instances:
1) just after reaching a full charge
2) 1 minute after reaching a full charge
3) every 5 minutes after reaching a full charge
To alleviate the charge LED from blinking on the
base, you can simply remove the handset from
the charging cradle.
You may also select to leave the handset in the
cradle, which will not damage the unit. Once fully
charged, you may notice the charge LED light will
turn for 4 seconds every 5 minutes. This is normal
operation and does not mean your unit is
defective.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should non-
rechargeable batteries be used. Only use the
supplied battery pack or you will invalidate your
guarantee and may damage the telephone.
