PREPARATION
CHARGING THE
HANDSET’S BATTERY
You must charge the battery at least
24 hours before you use the phone
the first time or when you replace the
battery. To charge or recharge the
battery, simply place the handset on
the cradle. The CHARGE indicator
lights.

Note:
If the CHARGE indicator does
not light or blinks continuously when
you place the handset on the cradle,
be sure the battery and AC adapter
are correctly and securely connect-
ed. Also, check the charging con-
tacts on both the handset and base.
If the contacts are dirty or tarnished,
clean them with an eraser.
Recharge the battery when the hand-
set’s BATT LOW indicator lights (see
“Replacing the Handset Battery”).

indicator)
Notes:
• About once a month, fully dis-
charge the battery. Otherwise, it
will lose its ability to recharge,
and you might have to recharge
and replace it more often.
To fully discharge the battery,
keep the handset off the cradle
until BATT LOW lights. Then
return the handset to the base
and fully recharge the battery.
• Some deeply discharged batter-
ies take longer to charge. If
overnight charging is not suffi-
cient, try charging for up to 48
hours.
