Oricom 8800 Cordless Telephone User Manual


 
6GETTING STARTED
Battery low warning
If the icon  ashes in the display, you will need to recharge the
handset before you can use it again. During charging, the
icon in
the display will scroll.
Battery performance
In ideal conditions, fully charged batteries should give about 10
hours talk time or 100 hours standby time on a single charge.
Note that new batteries do not reach full capacity until they have
been in normal use for several days.
The charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with
time as they wear out, giving the handset less talk/standby time.
Eventually they will need to be replaced.
Batteries and handset may become warm during charging. This is
normal.
Tip!
It is good practice to put the cordless handset on the charging cradle when it is
not in use to ensure that the handset is always fully charged.
