from heat sources and sunlight.

Check Battery Indicator
If you receive a check battery warning, it indicates
one of the following:

to install a battery into your Handset (see Instal-
lation and Charge of Battery in Handset sec-
tion on the previous page.)
• The battery has been installed incorrectly. Please reinstall (see Installation
