automatically whenever the handset is in its charger or base unit. Average talk time
on a fully charged battery is about nine hours depending on environmental
conditions, standby time is approximately four days.

• The handset seems completely dead, the LCD
is completely clear and does not activate when

your features will return to their normal function.
