RECHARGEABLE BATTERY PACKS

Charging the Handset batteries
The Handset of your VTech 2910c cord-
less telephone is powered by a re-
chargeable battery pack. It charges
automatically whenever the Handset is
in the Base Unit cradle. You should
charge the battery pack for 16 hours
when you first receive your phone. You
will know the battery pack needs
charging when:
• The phone emits a warning tone
when you press the PHONE key.
• The "LOW BATTERY" message is
displayed on the LCD:
• The Handset seems completely
dead, the LCD is clear and the
Handset does not beep when you
press the keys.

To Charge The Battery Pack

To charge the battery pack, place the
Handset in the Base Unit. The
CHARGE indicator will light to show the
Handset is seated properly and the bat-
tery pack is charging. It is recom-
mended that the battery pack be
charged for at least 16 hours initially and
8 hours for maintenance charging. You
can use your telephone before that with
diminished capacity, but it is best to
charge the battery pack fully. It will take
several recharge cycles to maximize the
charge capacity of your battery pack.
The maximum batter life between
charges is 7 hours of continuous talk
time or 7 days of standby time.

Spare Battery Charger

Alternatively, if you have purchased a
spare battery pack and it has been
charging in the base unit, simply
exchange the drained Handset battery
pack with the fully charged replacement
battery pack from the spare battery
charger. Place the drained Handset
battery pack into the spare battery
charger so it will charge.
The base spare battery charger does
NOT charge a battery pack as quickly
as the main Handset charger. A full
charge requires 24 hours.

Your NiCad battery pack recharges
whenever the Handset is returned to the
