Tips on Extending Battery Pack Life

Battery Memory Effect

All rechargeable nickel cadmium batteries can develop a "memory" (reduced charge capacity)
caused by repeated charge and discharge cycles. Batteries that have developed this effect do
not operate to their fullest capacity.
To avoid memory effect
Operate the unit until the battery pack is completely discharged before recharging. For
example, use the handset off the base all day. Only replace the handset on the base at night
after a full day of use. Do not "top off" the charge after using the battery for a short time.
To erase memory effect
Operate the unit until the battery pack is completely discharged, then recharge it fully.
Repeat this process at least three times.

LCD Low Battery Indicator

you see this message on the display and the handset beeps.
