CONNECTING/CHARGING THE
BATTERY PACK
The phone comes with a rechargeable
nickel-cadmium 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 each
handset on the base or charging cradle. The
CHARGE/IN USE and CHARGE indicators on
the cradles should light up.

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, place both handsets
on the main base.
Using a damp cloth, clean the charging
contacts on the handsets and cradles about
once a month.
