Nickel Cadmium Rechargeable Batteries must be
recycled or disposed of properly. Do not dispose of in
household garbage. If burned, it could explode. If punc-
tured, it could release caustic material which could injure
the skin or eyes. If swallowed, it may be toxic.
The RBRC

an industry program to collect and recycle Nickel-Cadmium rechargeable
batteries when taken out of service within the United States. These
batteries may be taken to a participating local retailer of replacement
batteries or recycling center. Or, you may call 1-800-8BATTERY for
locations accepting spent Nickel-Cadmium batteries.
Replacing the Handset Battery Pack
1 Remove the battery compartment cover on the handset by
pressing on the indentation and sliding the cover downward.
2 Lift out the old battery pack.
3 Hold the new battery pack and plug the connector into the
handset. Place the battery pack into the case.
4 Replace the cover by sliding it on its track up over the battery
case until it snaps firmly into place.
5 The new battery pack must be charged before using the
phone. Place the handset face up or face down in the base and
allow it to charge for at least 12 hours the first time. After the first
charge, the battery will quick charge in only six hours. The
telephone might operate before that, but for best performance, let
the battery pack charge fully.
NOTE: The handset may not charge in the face-up position if the belt
clip is attached.
