3. Align the bracket’s keyhole slots with the
mounting screws and slide the base
downward to secure it.
CONNECTING AND
CHARGING THE
BATTERY PACK
The telephone comes with a rechargeable
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
pack compartment cover.
2. Lift the battery pack out of the compart-
ment. Plug the battery pack’s connector
into the socket in the compartment. The
connector fits only one way.
3. Put the battery pack in the compartment.
4. Replace the cover.
To charge the battery pack, simply place the
handset on the base, facing either up or
down. The CHARGE/IN USE indicator on the
base lights.
Recharge the battery pack when the handset
beeps and the TALK/BATT indicator flashes.
Important:
Be sure the battery pack is prop-
erly connected before you try to charge it.
The CHARGE/IN USE indicator lights when
the handset is on the base, even if the bat-
tery pack is not connected.
Notes:
• When you first use the phone after
charging or recharging the battery pack,
the phone might not work and you might
hear a five-beep error signal. If this hap-
pens, return the handset to the base for
about 5 seconds. This resets the secu-
rity access-protection code.
• Using a pencil eraser, clean the charg-
ing contacts on the handset and the
base about once a month.
• If the TALK/BATT indicator does not light
and the phone does not work, recharge
the battery pack. (The battery power
might be too low to light the indicator.)
• If the battery pack becomes weak during
a call, you hear a beep and the TALK/
BATT indicator flashes. When this hap-
pens, you cannot make another call on
the phone until you recharge the battery
pack.
• About once a month, fully discharge the
battery pack by keeping the handset off
the base until the TALK/BATT indicator
flashes. Otherwise, the battery pack
loses its ability to fully recharge.
