8 Getting started
Battery performance
To keep the batteries in the best
condition, leave the handset off
the base for a few hours at a time.
Running the batteries right down
at least once a week will help them
last as long as possible.
After charging your handset for the
first time, subsequent charging time
for the batteries is approximately
6 – 8 hours.
The charge capacity of
rechargeable batteries will reduce
with time as they wear out, thus
reducing the talk/standby time.
Eventually they will need replacing.
New batteries are available from
the BT Studio Helpline on
0870 605 8047 or email
bt.helpdesk@suncorptech.com.
If you experience any problems, please call the Helpline on 0870 605 8047 or email bt.helpdesk@suncorptech.com
