Handset Battery Charging - VTech CS6648-2 User Manual

Getting started

Handset battery charging

Once you have installed the battery, the screen indicates the battery status (see the
table below). If necessary, place the handset in the handset charger to charge the
battery. For best performance, keep the handset in the handset charger when not in
use. The battery is fully charged after 11 hours of continuous charging. See the table
on page 64 for battery operating times.
If the screen is blank or displays Put in charger, you need to charge the handset
without interruption for at least 30 minutes to give the handset enough charge to use
for a short time. When the battery is low, the handset displays Low battery along
with a flashing icon. If you are on a call in low battery mode, the handset plays short
beeps to alert you.
The following table summarizes the battery charge indicators and actions to take.
