Getting Started
1
Slide open the battery
compartment lid of the handset.
2
Insert the battery pack (with
contacts facing down) into the
battery compartment.
3
Close the battery compartment
lid.
4
Place the handset on the base
unit.
You can place it with either side
facing up.
The CHARGE lamp lights up

1
Open the battery compartment
lid of the base unit.
2
Insert the battery pack (with
contacts facing down) into the
battery compartment.
3

lid.
The SPARE BATTERY lamp
lights up. Charge the battery
pack for more than 24 hours so
that the battery is fully charged.
The SPARE BATTERY lamp
remains lit even after charging
is completed.
Battery duration
A fully charged battery pack lasts for about:
• Approx. 7 hours when you use the handset continuously
• Approx. 7 days when the handset is in standby mode.
Notes
• The battery pack will gradually discharge over a long period of time, even
when not in use.
• If you leave the battery pack in the handset without charging it, the battery
pack will be completely discharged.
It may require several times of charging to recover to its full capacity.
To obtain the best performance from the battery
Do not place the handset on the base unit after each call. The battery
works best if the handset is returned to the base unit after two or three
calls. However, do not leave the handset off the base unit for a long
period of time as this will completely discharge the battery pack.
When to purchase a new battery pack
If the battery lasts only a few minutes even after 12 hours of charging,
the usable life of the battery has expired and needs replacement.
Contact your local Sony authorized dealer or service center, and ask
for a Sony BP-T23 rechargeable battery pack.
Note
Battery life may vary depending on usage condition and ambient temperature.
Step 4

Entering the area code

When you use this phone for the first time, or move to an area that has a
different area code, you must enter your home area code. Otherwise, you
cannot use some functions of this phone and the Caller ID functions.
This is also necessary because the phone must be able to select an area code to
properly dial call from the Caller ID list.
Depending on your region, enter 3-digit area code as follows:
Case 1.
If 7-digit dialing (no area code) is accepted for local calls in your area, see "To enter
your home area code" below.
If you live in an area where calls from or to other local areas can also be made by 10-digit dialing
(area code + number), you can register up to 5 local area codes with this telephone to take
advantage of this system. See "To enter the local area code (For 10 digits phone number users)"
on page 18.
Case 2.
If 10-digit dialing (area code + number) is required for all local calls in your area, at
first, enter "000" in your home area code. See "To enter your home area code" below.
Then see "To enter the local area code (For 10 digits phone number users)" on page
18.
