Battery Packs
Overview
The handset will need to have its Battery Pack recharged
periodically. The Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) rechargeable
handset Battery Pack gives you four hours of talk time or 80 hours
of stand-by time (unless PTT is enabled in the NetLink i640
Wireless Telephone only). Stand-by time is when the handset is
turned on, but not in an active call.
Indications of low battery
The handset will notify you when the charge on the Battery Pack is
low by displaying the battery icon. If you are in a call you will hear a
soft beep through the earpiece every thirty seconds. User has 15–30
minutes of battery life left. The alerts will increase to every six
seconds when there is about one minute of battery life left.
Not in call: The message Low Battery and a loud beep indicate a
critically low Battery Pack charge. These occur when the user is not
in a call. The handset will not work until the Battery Pack is
charged.
Caution:
Take care not to short the battery contacts on the Battery Pack with
metal objects such as coins, keys or paper clips. Shorting the
contacts can cause permanent damage.
