to let the battery pack charge fully.
To maximize the charge capacity of
the NiCad battery pack, recharge
the battery for several cycles. Once
you have properly conditioned the rechargeable battery, the maximum
battery life should be 4 hours of continuous talk time or 5 days of standby.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire or injury, read and follow the
instructions.
1. Use only battery 80-4060-10-00.
2. Do not open or mutilate the battery. Released electrolyte is corrosive
and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
3. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the battery with
conducting materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or
conductor may overheat and cause burns.
4. Do not dispose of the battery in a fire. The cell may explode.
IF THE BATTERIES DON'T RECHARGE
The battery pack can be recharged many times, but if you get a low-
battery signal even after 24 hours of charging, the battery pack should be
replaced.
