or down.
Make sure that the contacts on the
bottom end of the handset are
touching both charging contacts.
When the handset batteries are
charging, the green
CHARGING light
comes on – it goes off when the
batteries are fully charged. It will come
on again occasionally to indicate that
the battery is being topped up.

charged for16 hours, the Diverse 2011

Battery display when inserting or
replacing a battery
When you replace the handset
batteries with ones that have been
fully charged, the battery indicator
will not show full until the next
charge cycle has been completed.
Charge the handset until the
batteries register full again. From
then on the display will be correct.
Getting the most out of your
batteries
Avoid replacing the handset on the
base station between calls. It is best
to keep the handset off the base for a
few hours at a time.
Battery performance
After charging your Diverse 2011 for
the first time, subsequent charging
time for the handset batteries is
approximately 4-5 hours. Batteries
and case may become warm during
charging. This is normal and not
dangerous.
Under ideal conditions, the handset
batteries should give about 7 hours
talktime or 60 hours standby on a
single charge (both standby and talk
time is reduced for the Diverse 2000
Executive Handset to approximately
50 hours standby and 6 hours
talktime). However, new NiCad
batteries do not reach their full
capacity until they have been in normal
use for several days.
Please note that the lifespan of NiCad
rechargeable batteries depends on
how heavily they are used. However,
over time, their capacity to recharge
will begin to diminish and they will
eventually need replacing.
