Radio Shack ET-925 Cordless Telephone User Manual

When you first use the phone after
charging or recharging the battery
pack, the phone might not work
and you might hear an error tone.
If this happens, return the handset
to the base for a few seconds.
If the battery pack loses its charge
completely or the base loses pow-
er while the handset is away from
it, the security access-protection
code needs to be reset. To reset
the security code, place the hand-
set on the base. If it was the hand-
set that lost power, leave the
handset on the base to charge the
battery pack.
About once a month, fully dis-
charge the battery pack by keep-
ing the handset off the base until
the TALK/BATT LOW indicator
flashes. Otherwise, the battery
pack loses its ability to fully re-
charge.
If the TALK/BATT LOW 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.)
The supplied battery pack should
last for about a year. When the
battery pack loses its ability to ful-
ly recharge, order a replacement
battery pack from your local Ra-
dioShack store (see “Replacing
the Battery Pack” on Page 23).
