• The first time you use your phone
after installing a new battery, the
handset might not work or might
sound an error tone when you
press
TALK
. This might also occur
when you recharge a battery that
has been completely discharged.
If this happens, be sure
RINGER
ON/OFF
is set to
ON
. Then return
the handset to the cradle for 5
seconds. This resets the security
access code.
• If the CHARGE indicator does not
light when you place the handset
on the cradle, be sure the battery
is connected to the pins inside the
battery compartment, and the AC
adapter is securely connected to
the base.
Also, check the charging contacts
on the handset and base. If the
contacts are dirty or tarnished,
gently clean them with a pencil
eraser.
• About once a month, fully dis-
charge the battery. Keep the
handset off the cradle until BATT
LOW lights. Then return the hand-
set to the cradle and recharge the
battery for about 10 hours.
