Talk/Standby time
Under ideal conditions, fully charged
handset batteries should give about 10
hours talk time or 100 hours standby
time on a single charge.
Battery low warning
If the symbol is flashing, you will
need to recharge your handset before
using it.
Battery performance
To keep your batteries in the best
condition, leave the handset off the
base for a few hours at a time (after
the initial 16 hour charge).
New NiMH batteries do not reach full
capacity until they have been in
normal use for several days. Running
the batteries right down at least once
a week will help them last as long as
possible.
IMPORTANT
Only use the power supply and
telephone line cord supplied with your
BT Freestyle 225 otherwise the
telephone may not work.
