TELEPHONE PREPARATION
INSTALLING THE
HANDSET BATTERY
PACK
To install the supplied rechargeable
battery pack, place it on the battery
compartment tracks, then slide it up (to-
ward the antenna) until it locks in place.
Note:
You must charge a new battery
pack at least 24 hours before you use it
the first time. See “Charging the Hand-
set Battery Pack” on Page 14.
When the handset’s battery pack no
longer recharges, replace the battery
pack. You can order a replacement bat-
tery pack from your local Radio Shack
store.
To remove the battery pack, press the
tab on the back of the handset, slide the
battery pack down (away from the an-
tenna) until it stops, then lift it up to re-
move it.
Note:
The phone uses a rechargeable
nickel-cadmium battery pack. At the
end of the battery pack’s useful life, it
must be recycled or disposed of proper-
ly. Contact your local, county, or state
hazardous waste management authori-
ties for information on recycling or dis-
posal programs in your area. Some
options that might be available are: mu-
nicipal curbside collection, drop-off box-
es at retailers, recycling collection
centers, and mailback programs.
