CONNECTING, CHARGING
AND REPLACING THE
BATTERY PACK
The phone comes with a rechargeable Ni-Cd
(nickel-cadmium) battery pack installed in
the handset, but not connected. Before using
your phone, you must connect the battery
pack, then charge it for about 24 hours.
1. Press down and slide off the battery

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.
4. Put the battery pack in the compartment.
5. Replace the cover.
To charge the battery pack, place the
handset on the base, face up or down. The
base’s CHARGE/IN USE indicator lights.
Recharge the battery pack when

flashes.
Important:
Be sure the battery pack is
properly connected before you try to charge
it. The CHARGE/IN USE indicator lights
when the handset is on the base even if the
battery pack is not connected properly.
Notes:
When you first use the phone after
charging or recharging the battery pack,
the phone might not work and you might
hear error beeps. If this happens, return
the handset to the base for about 5
seconds to reset the security access-
protection code.
Using a pencil eraser, clean the
charging contacts on the handset and
the base about once a month.
If the phone does not work, recharge the
battery pack. (The battery power might
be too low to flash the display.)
If the battery pack becomes weak during
a call, the handset beeps and

cannot make a call on the phone until
you recharge the battery pack.
