If the base loses power for 60
minutes while the handset is
away from it, the security code
might be lost. To reset the code,
return the handset to the base
for about five seconds.
Using a pencil eraser, clean the
charging contacts on the
handset and base about once a
month.
If the battery pack becomes
weak during a call, the handset
beeps every three seconds and

Bemý8Wjj[ho flashes. When this
happens, you cannot make a
call until you recharge the
battery pack.
About once a month, fully
discharge the battery by
keeping the handset off the
base until

Otherwise, the battery pack
loses its ability to fully
recharge.
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.)
If you are not going to use your
phone for an extended period of
time, disconnect the battery
pack. This increases the battery
pack's usable life.
