Freestyle 2010 ~ Issue 2 ~ Edition 1 ~ 25th June ’02 ~ 4795
SETTING UP
Before you use your Freestyle 2010 for the
first time, it is important to have the handset
batteries fully charged. The batteries need to
charge continuously for at least 16 hours to
reach full charge.
Place the handset on the base. The handset
comes pre-registered to the base station as
FREESTYLE 1. This is shown on the display.
The battery symbol is also shown on the
display. It flashes during charging. Once the
handset is fully charged, the display shows a
full battery symbol.

If the handset battery symbol is empty and
flashing, and you hear a warning beep every
10 seconds, you will need to recharge your
handset before you can use it.
Battery performance
Under no circumstances should
non-rechargeable batteries be used. Only use
the approved batteries, type: rechargeable
Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH); Size AAA;
Capacity 600 mAh. Using unapproved
batteries will invalidate your guarantee and
may damage the telephone.
To keep your battery in the best condition,
leave the handset off the base station for a
few hours at a time (after the initial 16 hour
charge).
Please note, however, that new Nickel Metal
Hydride(Ni-MH) batteries do not reach their
full capacity until they have been in normal
use for several days.
Fully discharging the batteries at least once
a week will help them to last as long as
possible. However, the charge capacity of
rechargeable batteries will reduce with time
as they wear out, so reducing the
talk/standby time of the handset. Eventually
they will need to be replaced.

with the batteries).
