To use Skype you will need an available ethernet port. If you have traditional phone service (landline), you will
also need an available telephone wall jack.
Getting Started with the Handset
To insert the batteries and charge them, follow these instructions:
1. Remove the cover of the battery compartment.
2. Insert the two NiMH rechargeable, AAA batteries (included). Make sure the polarities are correct. (The + and
- ends of the batteries should be in the + and - slots of the compartment.)
3. Slide the cover upward until it snaps into place.
4. Plug the charger’s power adapter into an electrical outlet. Place the handset on the charger. For the initial
charge, let the batteries charge for 14 hours before using the handset. This maximizes battery performance
and life.
Proceed to the next section, “Getting Started with the Base Station.”
