your guarantee and may damage the
telephone.
Talk/Standby time
Under ideal conditions, the handset
batteries should give up to 10 hours
talk time or 100 hours standby on a
single charge.

the base or leave the handset for this
length of time without charge).
Please note that new NiMH
rechargeable batteries do not reach
full capacity until they have been in
normal use for several days.
