charging or recharging the battery
pack, the phone might not work and
you might hear three beeps when

happens, you cannot make another
call on the phone until you recharge
the battery pack.

handset off the base until the hand-
set display shows

low. Otherwise, the bat-
tery pack loses its ability to fully
recharge.

Recharge! Battery low, but
the phone does not work, recharge
the battery pack. (The battery
charge might be too low to light the
indicator.)
If you are not going to use your
phone for an extended period of
time, disconnect the battery pack.
This increases the battery pack's
usable life.
