Connect To The Telephone Line - BT FREELANCE XC 1500 User Manual

8 Getting started
Battery performance
To keep the batteries in the best
condition, leave the handset off the
base for a few hours at a time.
Running the batteries right down at
least once a week will help them last as
long as possible.
After charging your handset for the
first time, subsequent charging time
for the batteries is approximately
6–8 hours.
The charge capacity of rechargeable
batteries will reduce with time as they
wear out, thus reducing the
talk/standby time. Eventually they will
need replacing. New batteries are
available from the BT Freelance
XC1500 Helpline on 0808 100 6556*.
IMPORTANT
Only use the telephone line cord
supplied with the phone.
ii. Insert the 2 x AAA rechargeable batteries supplied, taking
note of the polarity markings inside the battery compartment,
then slide the battery compartment shut.
The display will show the handset number,
registered to the base.
iii. Place the handset on the charger. It will beep when placed in
and the battery icon on the handset will flash to indicate
charging. You should let the batteries charge continuously for
at least 24 hours.
Any additional handsets supplied as part of a multipack are
pre-registered to the base. So, once charged, are ready for use.
