Installation of Battery Cells in Handset
Charging of the Handset Battery Cells
The Handset of your cordless telephone is powered by rechargeable battery cells. It
charges automatically whenever the Handset is in its charger or Base Unit.
You should charge the battery pack for 10-12 hours when you first receive
your phone.
You will know the battery cells need charging when:
• The low battery message is displayed:
• The Handset seems completely dead, the LCD
is completely clear and does not activate when
you press the keys.
NOTE: When in LOW BATTERY mode, the keypad sounds, backlighting and
speakerphone features will not work. When your battery has been charged,
your features will return to their normal function.
IMPORTANT:
1. Do not dispose of battery cell in a fire, the cell may explode.
2. Do not open or mutilate the battery cell. Toxic substances may be released,
causing harm to eyes or skin.
3. Exercise care in handling battery cell in order to prevent an accidental short
of the charge contacts, potentially causing the battery pack to overheat.
Follow the steps below:
1. Place the new battery cells in the
Handset with the positive and
negative poles aligned in the
battery compartment.
2. Replace the battery compartment
cover by sliding it upwards.
3. If the new battery cells are not already
charged, place the Handset in its
Charger or Base Unit, and allow it to
charge for 10-12 hours. After initial
charge, a maintenance charge of 8
hours should be sufficient.

NOT be used in your ip 5850
