The phone comes with a rechargeable
nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) battery pack in
the handset, but not connected. Before
using your phone, you must connect the
battery pack, then charge it for about 15–20
hours.
1. Press down and slide off the battery
compartment cover.
2. Lift the battery pack out of the
compartment.
3. Plug the battery pack’s connector into
the socket in the compartment (the
connector fits only one way), then place
the battery pack in the compartment.
4. Replace the cover.
To charge the battery pack, place the
handset on the base. The
CHARGE
indicator
on the base lights.
Recharge the battery pack when
Low Battery
flashes on the display.
If you have trouble replacing the battery
pack, take the phone to your local
RadioShack for assistance.
Recharging the Battery Pack

during a call,
Low Battery

When this happens, you cannot make a
call until you recharge the battery
pack.

If the display is blank and the phone
does not work, recharge the battery
pack. (The battery power might be too
low to light the display.)
About once a month, fully discharge the
battery by keeping the handset off the
base until

Be sure the battery pack is
properly connected before
you try to charge it. The
