CONNECTING AND
CHARGING THE BATTERY
PACK
The ET-919 comes with a rechargeable
nickel-cadmium battery pack in the
handset but not connected. Before using
your phone, you must connect the bat-
tery pack and then charge it for about 24
hours.
1. Press down and slide off the com-
partment cover as shown.
2. Plug the battery pack’s plastic con-
nector into its socket. The connector
fits only one way.
Note:
For easier battery pack con-
nection, lift it out of the compart-
ment, insert its connector into the
socket, then replace the battery
pack inside the compartment.
3. Replace the cover.
4. To charge the battery pack, simply
place the handset on the base. The
CHARGE indicator on the base
lights.
Recharge the battery pack when the
BATT LOW indicator flashes.
Notes:
If the CHARGE indicator does not
light when you place the handset on
the base, be sure the battery pack
and AC adapter are correctly and
securely connected.
Also, check the charging contacts
on the handset and the base. If the
contacts are dirty or tarnished, clean
them with a pencil eraser.
