Battery installation and charging

screen indicates the battery status (see the following table). If necessary, place
the handset in the telephone base or charger to charge the battery. For best
performance, keep the handset in the telephone base or charger when not in
use. The battery is fully charged after 11 hours of continuous charging. See the
table on page 168 for battery operating times.

to charge the handset without interruption for at least 30 minutes to give
the handset enough charge to use the telephone for a short time. When the
battery is low, the handset shows Low battery and a flashing . If you are on a
call in low battery mode, the handset beeps every minute.
