REPLACING THE
BATTERY PACK
If you follow the instructions in “Con-
necting and Charging the Battery
Pack” on Page 13, the battery pack
should last about 1 year. If the battery
does not hold a charge for more than 2
hours after an overnight charge, re-
place the battery pack with a 3.6 volt,
300 milliamp battery pack with a con-
nector that fits the socket in the battery
compartment. You can order a re-
placement through your local Ra-
dioShack store.
Install the new battery pack as follows,
then charge the battery for about 14
hours (see “Connecting and Charging
the Battery Pack” on Page 13).
Caution:
Use only a fresh battery of
the required size and type.
Notes:
• If you have trouble replacing the
battery pack, take the phone to
your local RadioShack store for
assistance.
• To avoid losing phone numbers
stored in memory, install and
begin charging the new battery
pack within 3 minutes.
