Initial charging and discharging of
batteries
If the handset is activated, the flashing
battery icon e in the top right of the dis-
play indicates that the batteries are being
charged.
During handset operation, the battery
icon indicates the charge status of the bat-
teries (page 3). The correct charge level
can only be displayed if the batteries are
first fully charged and discharged.

To do this, leave the handset in the
base or charging cradle continuously
for ten hours. Your handset need not
be switched on for it to charge.
¤
Afterwards, remove the handset from
the base station and do not put it back
again until the batteries are fully dis-
charged.
Note:
After the first battery charge and discharge
you may replace your handset in its base after
every call.
Please remember:
u
Always repeat the charging and dis-
charging procedure if you remove the
batteries from the handset and re-
insert them.

The batteries may feel warm as they are
charging. This is normal.
