Installation of Battery Pack in Handset

Charging of the Handset Battery Pack

The handset of your cordless telephone is powered by a rechargeable battery
pack. It charges automatically whenever handset is in its charger.
You should charge the batteries for 10-12 hours when you first receive your
phone. You will know the battery pack needs charging when:
• The low battery message is displayed:
• The handset seems completely dead, the LCD is
completely clear and does not activate when you
press the keys.
Note: While in PLACE IN CHARGER (low battery)
mode, the keypad sounds, backlighting and speak-
erphone features will not work. When the battery has been charged, the features
will return to their normal function.
IMPORTANT:
1. Do not dispose of the battery pack in a fire, it might explode.
2. Do not open or mutilate the battery pack. Toxic substances may be released,
causing harm to eyes or skin.

the charge contacts, potentially causing the batteries to overheat.
