IMPORTANT:
Depending on the level of memory effect that the battery has, it is sometimes
necessary to refresh the battery pack in the fast charge compartment twice.
(Insert the battery pack in the fast charge compartment and leave it there until the
Spare Fast Charge LED is steady green. Remove the battery pack from the fast
charge compartment, then reinsert it and leave it until the Spare Fast Charge LED
is steady green a second time.)
Note that your handset will consume power during both talk time (when the handset is on)
and standby time (when the handset is turned off, but out of the battery charger). A fully
charged battery pack provides about 4.5 hours of talk time or about 30 hours of standby
time. As a guideline, you can expect a 1 hour reduction in talk time for every 7 hours of
standby time. Similarly, you can expect a 7 hour reduction in standby time for every hour
of talk time.
We highly recommend that you purchase a second battery pack to use as a spare. With
the spare battery pack in the battery charger's fast charge compartment, you are assured
of having a fresh, usable battery pack while you are using the battery pack in the handset.
The slow charge that the cradle sends to the handset battery helps keep the handset
operational while it is not in use. It is not a substitute for the refreshing and quick
charging capability of the fast charge compartment. With this in mind, use the battery
charger's fast charge compartment as the primary recharger.
Follow these steps to ensure an uninterrupted supply of power to your MDW 9010 phone:
If you have only one battery pack, place
the pack into the fast charge compartment
at the end of each day.
If you have two battery packs, exchange
the packs between the handset and the
fast charge compartment at least once a
day. Alternate the battery packs between
the handset and the battery charger's fast
charge compartment, even if the handset
battery never lights the handset's BATT
indicator.
