When the voltage of battery pack in the handset is very low and needs
to be charged, the phone is programmed to eliminate functions in
order to save power. If the battery charge becomes low, “ L o w
B a t t e r y ” appears on the LCD. If the phone is in use, the handset
beeps. Complete your conversation as quickly as possible and return
the handset to the base unit for charging.
C l e a n i n g t h e c h a r g i n g c o n t a c t s
To maintain a good charge, it is important to clean the battery
contacts on the handset and base unit with a dry cloth or a pencil
eraser about once a month.
Do not use any liquids or solvents.
Even when the
battery pack is not
being used, it will
gradually discharge
over a long period of
time. For optimum
performance, be sure
to return the handset
to the base unit after
a telephone call for
charging the battery.
